Both good actors but for me Johnny Depp has the edge over Tom Hanks.

but I think Depp is more versitle (Although I hated his portrail of Wonka). Really I feel the opposite. I'm so tired and annoyed of seeing him play goofy/oddball/weird characters. I liked him in stuff like What's Eating Gilbert Grape. He has the talent to not play a clown all the time. Hanks for me, he's had a damn fine career. |

Hanks though an argument can be made for Depp if Depp is motivated and not just going through the motions as he has been for the better part of the last decade.

If I had a gun to my head, Hanks. Even though I'm a huge Depp fan, Hanks has made more films I've enjoyed.

They're both great so the only way to decide is by who's done more bad movies, and since Hanks wasn't responsible for Alice in Wonderland I gotta go with him.  |

Tom Hanks for me. Depp is a great actor, but at this point, his ratio of good to awful movies is getting closer to even.

Depends on what they're doing. I loved Tom Hanks when he was doing the comedy stuff. Once he got into the Forrest Gump / Saving Private Ryan s*** I stopped being interested. Johnny Depp I loved in Mobsters and Pirates, but haven't been inclined to watch any of his other stuff. I think I saw Benny and Joon, but it didn't leave that big of an impression on me. *thinks* was he even in Mobsters.. ? Nope, had him confused with Richard Greico. Ok, I liked him in 21 Jump Street.

Depp has had plenty of non-goofball roles. It's pretty much post Jack Sparrow that he's fallen into that niche.

Could Hanks have pulled off playing Dr. Hunter S. Thompson? No way. Could Depp have played Forrest Gump or anyone of the other memorable Hanks roles? In my opinion, absolutely.
Hanks is this generations Jimmy Stewart (who is one of my favorites) and is immensely talented but Depp is willing to take on roles that noone else can do.
