Rip Verne Troyer, he was really inspiring for a small person like me
You can do what everyone else can.. I love that Verne said, "It's not me that's weird... It's everyone else that is"
I'm happy that he was happy with the role. As much as I loved the movies the first time, upon his death I found out he had depression and I was worried the movie had contributed to it and I found myself unable to watch them.
These smaller individuals are sooooo amazing and unique, I love seeing these great actors utilized well in movies! Willow is a great movie!
@@lilalex390 You have no idea who this person is, what you said is the most empty thing you could say.
Don’t lose that inspiration brother.
I wish Warwick Davis would get more roles where he's not in makeup. He has a really commanding presence.
He has a GREAT voice too!
@@Waytotheland lamp please! (Harry Potter)
Yes
Will always be Willow to me! Great movie because of Warwick Davis..
@@jetcarddude Him and Val were a great duo
RIP Verne Troyer
I didnt know he passed away....I just started watching his cooking videos :(
❤❤
I'm honored to met him by chance driving home from California. After I stopped to talk to him and we talked for some time, I was departing by shaking hands and he said pick me up, where he landed a big kiss on my lips..that was epic and my kids, now adults, still tell the story they were so happy to be apart of and witness to..we were very sad the day he passed.. Rest in peace to a very cool person..
Verne Troyers full-size person lookalike is Toto singer Joseph Williams...
I met Tony Cox in an olive garden in hollywood california 2006. Tony took the time to say hello and even take a few pictutes. Thanks Tony,,
That must have been AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!
harry zimbler in the big guy that was WITH him that day WOW BLESSINGS to YOU brother!!
thats awesome he did that because hes an awesome dude...but that really ties this video together...most actors with huge ass roles wouldnt even take a dump in an olive garden
@@charlesjones32787 true. A lot of actors wouldn't even breath the air there
He appreciates his fans!
Imagine Bad Santa without Tony Cox! He made that film with the way he was with Thornton.
Would of still be a success
all of the actors are fantastic in that. the fuck me santa woman he meets at the bar was probably the weak link
taliwakka27 I think it was the annoying kid with the curly blonde hair.
RedDawg no way, he's great. Knows exactly what he is doing
iodinesoul bernie mac. he's fucking HILARIOUS in it
Well miss you very much Verne!!!
R.I.P Verne Troyer
Such a great actor. Hilarious sense of humor. I loved him in Austin powers and the things he did with the Trailer park boys. He made acting history. I hope he was proud of himself
Warwick Davis' series 'Life's Too Short' was so funny - I really wished they extended that series.The thing is it was GENUINELY funny. Love all these people! Dope actors
It's not really funny saying life's too short it is a difficulty being a short person and they have a condition it's not nice to make fun of their condition
I loved the movie “Willow” when I was growing up. Warwick was eighteen at the time of filming and it was the first movie where he was the main character and not wearing a mask. I can’t wait to see him reprise the role in the Disney+ series.
I have dwarfism and was kind of shy as a kid, Willow was one of the biggest inspirations on me moving past that, seeing not only Warwick but a whole village of little people like me really gave me a boost in confidence and opened me up, now I am the exact opposite and maybe sometimes too outgoing lol.
Wish this had been a roundtable!!!
Get this done THR! We need a roundtable please.
Would of been a brawl more than likely lmao
They could have used a dinner plate.
RIP to Verne!
round table pizza
I lost my friend ruby in a accident, she was a small person and my first friend that is ... and let me tell you I never saw her different from other people and I miss her a whole lot ❤️
@Blackflag aww thanks, really appreciate that
Did you drop her somewhere and couldn't find her?
May she RIP, so sorry for your loss💕🙏
What happened? Her legs were too short to push the brakes?
Deep Roy would make an epic Bond villain.
That would be an awesome movie to watch!
Chloe B crucially yhjgjgihggyghjhkk
I second this as a nomination! Dear Mr Burton: Feel like making a Bond movie?
That would be interesting
Rookie Phantom Johnny Depp as bond🤔
I've loved Warwick Davis sonce Willow. Please do a roundtable!!!
Eboné Smiley , I prefered him in " LEPRAUCHAUN " he was just amazing, charismatic and SCARY AS FUCK !!!!!
Chris Opium. Me too. All time favorite movie as a kid and now!
I totally agree, this definitely should have been round table. This was absolutely fantastic. I would love to see deep Roy as a Bond villain. That would be groundbreaking.
He played an assassin in a Pink Panther movie. That’s pretty close.
I think this would've made a very interesting roundtable
Melina L rite
That aunt that gave him the best advice ever and built him back up after that bad man put him down diserves her own recognition for believing in him. We all need someone like her in our corner.
I always remember Deep Roy riding his racing snail in "neverending story". And Tony Cox throwing a brick through Bernie Mac's car window in "Friday". Height makes no difference, they're all great actors and seem like nice humble people.
Seeing this as well as his RUclips channel you would never think Verne Troyer was struggling so hard. Rest Peace sir, you will never be forgotten.
Great interview. I wish HR would had interview Peter Dinklage for this story since his career broke that glass ceiling of being use as a novelty.
Rest In Peace Verne!!!
I just learned that Verne Troyer passed. Thanks to Mike Myers and his Austin Powers sequals, Troyer played one of the most memorable characters to Grace the big screen. At only 2"8' he had such an incredible presence, and I'm sure everyone involved with those or any of his movies, were considered lucky to have know him. One of my daughter's nicknames is "mini-me.". Not just because she looks and acts like me, but because she's also very small for her age. R.I.P. Verne Troyer!!! Thanks for all the laughs you brought to my family and I. 🙏💔😟
Verne has a great personality, Warwick great voice.....
this warms and breaks my heart at the same time. These are some strong people. None of the movies would have been the same without each and every one of these great actors!
This topic with this talent needs to be a full length documentary. RIP Verne Troyer
Tony Cox was also in the first Friday film
Marchall White thats where i always remembered him from. He had a smoking hot wife.
“Hello mrs. parker”
So was Michael Clark Duncan rip
Marchall White - He sure was. He was hella funny as the jealous husband ready to bust a cap in the ass of his wife's lover ! 😄
he was also in "i'm gonna git you sucka" He's bad with the nunchucks lol
Holly shit, only just realised. Now that’s a film I’ve not watched in a while ❤️
Even the littlest person can hold the biggest places in our hearts. Love you Warwick, Tony, Terra and Roy. Miss you Verne.
Hollywood needs to recognize:
I will go to the theater and see any film featuring Mr. Davis, Mr. Troyer, Mr. Roy, and the others.
And then I'll buy the BluRay. Because these folks are fantastic actors!
I swear, it seems like Hollywood is blind! I've tuned in to every single show featuring these artists! If I had the means, I'd develop a show for all of them. And I'd bet almost anything that it would be a BIG hit.
Because it's Peter Dinklage Little Hollywood same
00xanawolf00 hundred percent agree with you
These actors are inspirational prayesr to all and r.i.p Verne troyer
Warwick davis is so damn handsome!!! Always had a huge crush on him... RIP Verne 💔💔💔
I remember deep Roy from my childhood, as the snail rider from the never ending story.
I love him and Warwick Davis. Davis' voice is so sexy
A friend of mine once told me that her mother was friends with Verne and was particularly sad at his passing. From what I hear, he was a great guy. May he rest in peace.
4-21-18, a very sad day. R.I.P.,Verne....💔
😔😔😔😢😢😢😭😭😭
Be celebrated for who you are not why you are. You guys are all so great. Don’t be afraid to shine. You guys rock!
Me Myself and Irene was my favorite!!!! Tony Cox was freakin hilarious!! I love all the actors movies!! They deserve recognition
Huge fan of Warwick Davis. I think he’s a brilliant actor and strong advocator for little people in Hollywood.
Who’s here for Verne Troyer?
Never heard of Austin Powers wow 😶
Griphook in Harry Potter franchise!
Deep roy the chocolate boy was the icing on the cake
Warwick Davis was in the Leprechaun too! love him in that movie
QUEEN_BRE he was BAAAAD AWSOME AND CREEPY AS FUCK !!!
It should've been roundtable.
Max D either that or a royal rumble...
You all made my childhood. RIP Verne.
I love the little women shows i watch all 3 ,LA, Texas , and Atlanta , they are all beautiful and talented.
4:33 Oh my GOD. Deep Roy as a James bond villain. That would be so good!
hearing how tony cox was hurt by people saying he couldn't be an actor hurt to hear. he's so talented!
Yeah I mean come the dude help make bad Santa movie wound not be as funny without him
I love Warwick Davis, wish there were more of them, small persons, in films especially like main roles
I’d love to see them all together, having a chat or even all in a movie. People want “authentic” these days. I can’t imagine anything more real and authentic than hearing their stories
Well, Verne's been dead for a few years now unfortunately. I don't know how you didn't hear about it.
*Love them so much EVERYONE, RIP Verne he was a great actor, Warwick wil be Willow always and forever*
Watched Verne on Big Brother UK. What a gentleman so sweet. RIP.🌺
I’m twice the size of these guys, but I wish I had half the passion. You all inspire me
God bless these people for their hard work.
It' sad that he passed away, i was shocked an obviously did not know! I was just becoming a big fan of him wachting my first interview with Verne Troyer, he captured my heart immediatly!
RIP, you will forever be the great Verne Troyer!
These folks are all legendary.
I actually was expecting Warwick to say 'Willow"
loved it as a kid
Awesome hearing things from their eyes. Great interviews! I’d love to see roles made just for them, as people, not little people. 🙏🏾
Deep Roy would be an AMAZING bond villain! ❤
This really touches my heart ☺
R. I. P. Verne. Respect Tony from Union town Alabama!!
These guys are awesome, great actors
Love all these great actors in this video!
You guys were perfect in every roll. I respect all of you, keep doing good movies. Thank you
Thank you all for being bigger than life to us all ! God Bless !
Deep Roy is an absolute legend.....
I think we all know this affected Verne the most. I've always loved him, he was so sweet. Ever since Fear and Loathing
I have never had any thoughts of these people other than great actors.
I was hoping for a roundtable, but great video anyway.
why does everyone in the comments keep saying that.
Beautiful stories from Beautiful people
These are great actors they deserve all the respect in the world. They're great and R.I.P Vern
These guys have done such a great job in breaking through typecast that life for the next gneration is made so much easier. If i had any idols in hollywood warwick and tony and peter would be three of them
Billy Barty was a really dear friend and he was an icon that everyone in this interview loved, along with everyone else
4:26 That's a cool picture of Deep Roy with Peter Sellers and Blake Edwards on the set of The Pink Panther Strikes Again.
To bad Billy Barty is not still alive. I think he would get a kick out of this.
I saw Billy at a 3 Stooges convention, got his autograph. Nice guy.
He's legendary.
i was sort of disappointed this clip didnt even mention any of the legends of the past. Billy is practically an icon.
I love all of them not as actors or avtresses but as people
I think it's funny how all the men have these higher than average voices since they're small, but then there's Warwick Davis with a deeper than average voice 😂
My favorites hero and mentor ❤️
Cmon Warwick don't forget about Willow!
Alexandra V well everyone else did
Alexandra V literally on my list of favs
Alexandra V we loved it as kids
Alexandra V , and LEPRAUCHAUN !!!
Alexandra V. Or Leprechaun!!
Maaaan, Warwick will forever be immortalized in my childhood. Dude, that's WILLOW! 😱😱😱
...and, although his character in the Harry Potter films was short lived, he was great as Griphook in DH2.
All of them are very well spoken.
They may be small people, but they are the same as everyone else.
Deep roy is an absolute legend that need to be cast in more roles. He killed it as mini legolas. And he needs to be a bond villain. It would be such a great twist
All of these actors are amazing! I love Tony Cox.
they are all incredible people and actirs , love Warwick Davis, and Peter Dinklage, what can I say, but simply incredible.. changing roles for little people, roles that are regular characters who just happen to be a small person, instead of big person.. xo
I've always looked up to these people - they have made me laugh - they have done their job to entertain me - thanks guys!
Wonderful actors and people! Best wishes to them!
RIP Verne Jay Troyer (January 1, 1969 - April 21, 2018)(aged 49) you will truly be missed and you're amazing and talented actor
Deep Roy is a badass.
I remember seeing Verne on the Jonathan Ross show and his genuine goodness is really so apparent, I real nice dude. RiP
RIP, Verne Troyer.
God bless the little people of the world.
I remember Verne Troyer at a Pantera concert with Godsmack. Verne chilling with Dimebag 😂
Also Tony Cox was in Leprechaun 2 with the fake milk chocolate. "He's 1 of us!" hahaha
I really miss Verne he was so funny and loved to watch him cook...he made me and others so very happy. Verne I miss you, now you can rest in ☮️ peace. 🙏🏼💗😔
Beautiful people. Awsome actors. 🌷RIP Verne troyer.🌷 This world would be such a boring place if we where all the same . UK
All of them are amazing actors.
deep roy was brilliant on eastbound and down season 2. I loved him
Warwick Davis voice is perfect
So cool! I love the drive and determination and great things come from compact things! These guys are awesome!!!!!!!!!!
Warwick Davis has a surprisingly deep voice.
They are all giants in their own way brilliant actors each and everyone 🤗🤗🤗🤗
I love the work of all these actors.. Especially Warwick Davies.. All of their work has been very entertaining for me. I wish I could see more movies involving every one of these actors. Not for their height but they are all Funny, Charismatic, Amazing Personalities, and Presence. Not only that, kids love them.. They are adults but the size of kids. Children feel like they can relate.. Movie writers need to get busy and think out of the box and write for all types of people.
Warwick Davis IS A WORLD TREASURE ❤️❤️❤️
so happy ur covering this
RIP Verne. A long happy and healthy life and career to them all.
Warwick, went on to star with his son (Harrison) in Star Wars, as what else, wicket and his son. Reported that he told George Lucas, don't forget to write a part for me. He went on to play three roles in one movie, playing multiple roles in the franchise.
Vern troyers part in fear and loathing was the best of all time lol
So inspiring!
Deep Roy was incredible in big fish/eastbound and down season 2 I’ll never forget it
JayBruceWorld don’t forget all the many Oompa Loompas he has to play
