    They actually put him in prison? No bullshit house arrest or suspended sentence? Lolol.

    How does someone like him manage to bankrupt themselves anyway? Peak retardation all round.

    To make things worse for him, this is how the courtroom artist drew him:

    Not sure I've ever seen one of those courtroom drawings where you'd recognise the person who's supposed to be in them.

    I thought Diplomatic Immunity (the con that it is) didn't allow for this type of thing?

    I have no idea about diplomatic immunity, but I'm sure I read somewhere [probably during that wrong side of the road business] that you only have it whilst acting in the course of the duties which grant you the immunity, which probably don't extend to trying to run an international drug smuggling operation.

    My Youtube homepage has been full of the Depp vs Heard court videos for weeks now, I finally caved tonight and her testimony must be one of the least believable in all of human history.

    I hope she has $50m handy, or Elon Musk's phone number still.

    She cannot cry on camera. I figured that's one of the first things actors learn.

    From the six minute clip I saw everything about it looked like a horrible Oscar acceptance speech, like that one Winslet gave when she beat Streep.

    I haven't seen much of it, but what I have seen has made her look fucking deranged.

    It all sounds like they were both as bad as each other, which she could have just left it at and 1) nobody would have been surprised that Johnny Depp was a creepy weirdo; and 2) she would still have come away with more sympathy than him; but no, and now look at her.

    Isn't it basically impossible to win this sort of lawsuit in the US?

    But yeah, they're both full on wrong'uns.

    In fairness, when Will Smith is slapping people about it's safe to say Hollywood Heads have gone all round. I'm just waiting for Tom Hanks to be outed as a Flat Earther or something, then we can start taking the letters off the hillside.

    Agreed. I thought so initially too, but three and a half hours of just letting this play on Youtube and she's clearly an absolute psycho, while Depp's a drughead who may have hit/pushed her in self defence.

    The psychologist who said she has borderline and histrionic PD was clearly spot on. Aside from an actual serial killer, someone with borderline PD is about the worst kind of human being you can get involved with. They will destroy your life with a deftness you can't even imagine.

    I'll admit, I'm mostly basing my opinion on the stuff around the previous trial. All I've seen from this one is him yucking it up with assorted wallies and her acting badly.

    I watched a load of videos of it the other day as well and it's pretty captivating.

    Her lawyers are absolute retards, the psychologist was awesome and Depp saying "a mega pint" was excellent.

    Is that aimed at people here (presumably me and Yev), or in general?

    If the former, I'm not remotely invested, some of the footage has just been quite entertaining.

    If the latter, for the same reason they are invested with literally everything else to do with celebrities.

    In general there seems to be a lot more interest in this story than most celebrity stuff. I dunno. I just can't imagine a less interesting news story to follow. It's just grim and not even that juicy.

    I'm with you here. Global 24/7 coverage of what is essentially a divorce is just strange.

    The slightly dubious IT guy at work claimed it was 'a watershed moment for men's rights', so naturally I blocked both their names on twitter.

    Johnny Depp's a beta anyway. Marries a lass 20 years younger than him, gets battered by her, she takes half his drugs and shits in his bed. All whilst he gets mad over a tattoo he still has of his ex.

    I am blissfully unaware of almost everything regarding that case except for that she shat on his bed which I'm delighted I do know because it's very funny.

    Because it involves a formerly bankable A list megastar who's career was ruined by his wife's allegations. I wasn't bothered until I saw a clip on youtube my wife was watching where the incompetence of Heard's lawyers was remarkable, Depp playing to the crowd. Even if he doesn't win the case he has won the court of public approval.

    Enjoy her while you can, because she's never working again after this. No idea why she thought this was a good idea (well, manic Narcissism aside). Depp has shown himself to be a bit of a mess, but his trolling has been top tier. He looks like he's having a great time.

    This is the point of it for him I feel.

    He knows he's going down with the ship, but he wanted to show the world that she should be going with him. Which I think has been done now. The general publics interest in it seems to also be centred around why his career has basically had to end but she is allowed to continue freely.

    It sounds like one of those where, whilst everybody knows she was clearly organising all of the leaking stuff, she might just manage to get away with it by throwing her agent (what?) under the bus instead.

    Isn't what Rooney has said fundamentally and demonstrably true anyway - in that these made up stories were only shared with one account which was in Vardy's name [and controlled by her and her minions]? So it's hard to see how even the fairly draconian British libel laws are going to be coming to her rescue here, even if she's managed to sink all the direct evidence in the North Sea [lol]. Circumstantial evidence and the balance of probabilities ftw. I don't know if any of the Vardy mob have given evidence yet but they are clearly going to be found to be unreliable at best.

    I like how you capitalised Autistic Children, as though they are a band or something.
