Ridley Scott Trades Russell Crowe To Tim Burton For Johnny Depp



HOLLYWOOD CA — Directors Ridley Scott and Tim Burton traded their favorite actors Wednesday, closing a deal in which Scott received Johnny Depp and Burton received Russell Crowe plus two guys from Black Hawk Down and a three-pack of watermelon Bubble Yum. " I'm going to cover his face in white powder and make him wear a purple fright wig and a Victorian frock coat with swirls all over it ," said Burton, who unsuccessfully attempted to trade away an old Michael Keaton with whom he hardly ever plays anymore. " Russell Crowe's going to be the best misfit undertaker ever! " Scott, meanwhile, told reporters that he was just glad he got rid of a crappy action figure like Crowe and that he and Burton had definitely called no tradebacks.
