Johnny Depp signs Gibson SG Specials for movie contests
Hollywood man-about-town Johnny Depp took time off from his busy promotional schedule for the new Disney action adventure movie, Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl, to sign two ebony Gibson USA SG Special guitars to be used for an online sweepstakes in conjunction with the movie.
One of the guitars, signed by the cast and crew of the flick including Depp, Keira Knightley, Orlando Bloom, and Jerry Bruckheimer is being offered as the Grand Prize of a contest sponsored by www.fuse.tv. The winner will also get an autographed movie poster and a "Pirates" t-shirt. Five runners up will get a uniquely numbered movie lithograph, a poster and a t-shirt. To win the Gibson SG Special guitar, movie enthusiasts can log onto fuse.tv, click on the little dancing man icon at the top of the page, select contests, click on the "Pirates of the Caribbean" link, watch the movie trailer and answer the question, "What important thing has the Captain's mate forgotten?" Entries must be received by July 25.
A second contest is is sponsored by Rolling Stone. Go here to enter.
Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl stars Johnny Depp, Geoffrey Rush, and Orlando Bloom, and is directed by Gore Verbinski. The movie opened in theaters on Thursday, July 9.
For the roguish yet charming Captain Jack Sparrow (Johnny Depp), the crystalline waters of the Caribbean - like the high seas the world over - present a vast playground where adventure and mystery abound. Jack's idyllic life capsizes after his nemesis, the wily Captain Barbossa (Geoffrey Rush), steals his ship the Black Pearl and later attacks the town of Port Royal, kidnapping the Governor's (Jonathan Pryce) beautiful daughter, Elizabeth Swann (Keira Knightley). Elizabeth's childhood friend, Will Turner (Orlando Bloom), joins forces with Jack to commandeer the fastest ship in the British fleet, the HMS Interceptor, in a gallant attempt to rescue her and recapture the Black Pearl. The duo and their motley crew are pursued by Elizabeth's betrothed, the debonair, ambitious Commodore Norrington (Jack Davenport), aboard the HMS Dauntless. Unbeknownst to Will, there is a curse that has doomed Barbossa and his crew to live forever as the undead, where each moonlight, they are transformed into living skeletons. The curse they carry can be broken only if a once-plundered treasure is restored. Stunning visual effects bring these formidable foes to life as our valiant heroes clash mightily with Barbossa and his invincible pirates of the Caribbean.
