It's pretty well established that Johnny Depp, unlike many actors and celebrities, is a really nice guy. Despite being popular across across every demographic, there is nary a report of him being rude to fan or disrespectful in anyway. That out there, seeing photographic evidence of said niceness shouldn't be ignored.

Blogger Whitney Eileen (via Before The Trailer) recently got the opportunity to visit the set of Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides, and decided to take a few photos. Unlike the photo that Jerry Bruckheimer shared a few weeks ago, these actually show a quality close-up of Johnny Depp in full regalia, as well as the new ship, called The Queen Revenge, which, evidently, was built out of the Black Pearl. Apparently the actor was more than happy to spend time with the fans, shake hands and sign autographs. That deserves a round of applause.
