I think I read somewhere that he likes Poe.
He was said to have based his performance on the character of Keith Richards, guitarist from The Rolling Stones. In the third Pirates film, Keith Richards made a cameo appearance as Jack Sparrow's father.
Johnny said that Captain Jack was a combination of Keith Richards of the Rolling Stones and Disney's Pepe Le Pew. LOL Johnny said he wasn't worried about Pepe's reaction, but wasn't sure about Keith's reaction. Richards went on to appear in the "Pirates" movies and played Sparrow's father, Captain Teague.
Well, it is unknown why the character actually has that walk. The actor, Johnny Depp, based the character's behavior on that of Keith Richards.
