*snerk* Well, I do think Depp's a very good character actor, and he seems to love challenges (I seem to recall him saying once that he'd love to be in a movie where he could play a woman because it would be such an intersting challenge). And Spock's an unusual character to begin with -- add to that that he's got 40+ years of the fan love for the character (and the side effect that the fans would crucify anyone who didn't do Spock justice)... I could see him being all over that role.
Plus, heck, I know my mom was a fan of the original Star Trek for Spock. (Shatner who? XD) It would make sense for the new Spock to be another actor who's popular with women.
If this is at all incoherent, I apologize. I really need to go to bed.
