Fun fact: At the end of Avengers when they’re all eating Shawarma and Captain America is sitting with his head in his hand, it’s because Chris Evans had started growing a beard for Snowpiercer.
Two scenes I can never forget and laugh no matter how many times I see them. 1. Ironman "Doth mother know you're wearing her drapes?" 2. Hulk slamming Loki repeatedly. "Puny God"
I don't generally get into the personal lives of people I don't know, but if you were a movie buff you couldn't help but be aware of the RDJ situation. There was a time when I seriously expected I'd wake up one day to hear that Downey had died due to overdose or car accident or some related misadventure. For such a talented artist to get his life together and attain the level of success that he did honestly makes me feel good to this day and happy for a person I've never met.
My sister asked her daughter how much she loved her uncle (me) and she said, "ten thousand" and my sister said, "What?!?!" so she added "ten thousand milligrams" which my sister absolutely loved for the units. The three year old niece had no idea she got rid of the thousand by the units. Still in her mind is was a lot. At 8 months old she had lifted up a book and looked at me and said, "Read me this" and that just blew my mind at 8 months. But I guess she knew what would get a long story from her uncle.
@ReligionOfSacrifice Let me see here ... a milligram is 1/1000th off a gram. 10,000 milligrams would be 10,000 1/1,000ths of a gram. 1,000 divided by 1,000 equals one. 1 X 10 = 10. 10 grams. What is something that is 10 grams, just for a frame of reference? It's weird how Mille and milli can be so vast 1 is 1,000 of something, and the other just happens to be 1 / 1,000th of something, Think of something else where two things that are so easily alike have so much diff. Still, that is a nice story.
Also, saying real, actual words at 8 months? Not just r"re mee dip," but full "ead me this"? Granted, it's just 3 words, but by 8 months, babies may have reached expert lev sound, but just may not quite have reached words. The only thing that I may have set just even more neat, but still I could fin̈d sensible here may be if she said "unca, you read me this?"
I'm sure others got this waaaay before me, but the hug when Tony sees Peter Parker in End Game and hugs him when he comes back, was a continuation of the "not there yet" gag in the limo. Such attention to detail in these movies. We were lucky to experience this ambitious cinematic universe through End Game. I don't think the magic will be replicated.
He was able to add REAL dimension to Tony Stark in a way NO OTHER actor could accomplish. I first saw him in "Chaplin" still one of my favourite movies and he was brilliant THEN. and in Avengers, I LOVED the shwarma scene at the end. The MCU is having him play Victor Von Doom. Genius choice as he is PERFECT top bring off Doom's enormous EGO.
I saw Natural Born Killers, and Weird Science, multiple times... and never knew those actors were Robert. Wow. I grew up with him. I have the Betamax, "Weird Science" movie, in a nice red closable case, and as a kid, in the early 80's, watched it all the time.
I was just thinking the same thing. Basically all the great moments that are well loved were created by the actors. Which now makes sense, since now they are gone, why all the movies SINCE then are sh*t.
3:50 It’s said that Captain America was posed with his hand like that because he was hiding a beard from Chris Evans’ role in his next movie. They were recalled to film this scene after shooting was over.
I love RDJ, always have. The first movie I ever saw him in was called Less then Zero... great movie & he plays an incredible part 👏. The movie is at least 40yrs old or close to it.
Iron Man 1 is arguably one of the best movies in the MCU. So, to hear that the film didn't have a fleshed out conclusion and that RDJ improvised that Tony Stark reveals to the world that he is Iron Man is absolutely insane!
@PersimmonTheRainwing he probably didn't know the term, maybe he thought he actually meant "forgot he was blocking" but yeah you're right it's a phrase used on sets
Y'know thats a funny image now. I've heard the term blocking for stage directions so much that I forgot it meant other things. This individual thought they were talking about blocking in terms of a fight-like blocking, and that makes me laugh
Remember this guy turned his life around, sure it helps to be good looking charming and smart personally I respect the man's strength of will most over the other things I mentioned. Anyone can be born with lucky genes but there are falls most people don't get up from even the best of us
Robert Downy Jr. truly is Tony Stark! Both are charismatic, witty, chatty, smart, and neither of them EVER stick to a script completely… and yet somehow they always make it work!
So a bunch of the MCU's most memorable moments and characters choices were RDJ ad libs fixing incomplete scripts. No wonder things fell apart so quickly after they killed him off.
really hate when directors force actors to stay to the script… like these off-script moments and actions make any movie so much more organic and natural.
I wonder how many of these "improvs" in videos like this were ACTUALLY improvs. Seems easy enough to just take great lines from a bunch of movies and say "These were all improv'ed!"
Feels weird to watch honestly. The MCU feels now over for me. None of my friends are watching any new movies anymore and there aren't any more coming out which I feel like are worth watching. I will, however, watch all of them, from start to End Game when I get the time for it.
Think about people with super intelligence. A lot of them are very childish and playful, most even speaking to themselves a lot, even with people in the room.
Can we just stop for a second and appreciate Gweneth's response of "that was rude"?
Very much something I imagine she'd say if told to put on a mask IRL seeing as she's infamous for pushing alternative medicine.
no
She's a nutjob, but she's got great comedic chops.
no
MCU MISSED an opportunity to have Strange & Stark 'debate' with 1 ending it with: "No Shit Sherlock"
WHY DOES THIS COMMENT HAVE UNDER TEN LIKES THIS IS PURE GOLD WTF
Absolute cinema
Yes
Strange vs Doom then?
@문아대 MAYBE????????
When you are a good director, you let your actors act, and that's how you get gold.
Fun fact: At the end of Avengers when they’re all eating Shawarma and Captain America is sitting with his head in his hand, it’s because Chris Evans had started growing a beard for Snowpiercer.
And they had to cover it with makeup which made it uncomfortable for him to eat, so he just sat there with his head in his hand.
Snowpiercer is under-rated
Two scenes I can never forget and laugh no matter how many times I see them.
1. Ironman "Doth mother know you're wearing her drapes?"
2. Hulk slamming Loki repeatedly. "Puny God"
The man is a brilliant actor. So glad he got his life together to be able to give us alll these incredible scenes and characters.

Incredible story of recovery
That is adorable for him to feature his real life aspects within his relationships between him & other characters here.

Strict policy of no snacks on set. They NEVER figured out where he was hiding them.
What turned out to be the biggest problem with the MCU was thinking that everybody needed to have RDJ's wit.
So true! It's a comedy show now!
Have you ever READ comics before? This shit stretches back to the original avengers
I saw Natural Born Killers, and Weird Science, multiple times... and never knew those actors were Robert.
Wow. I grew up with him. I have the Betamax, "Weird Science" movie, in a nice red closable case, and as a kid, in the early 80's, watched it all the time.
After the "I am iron man" thing
RDJ didn't want his character's final words to be that so he went "Hi penny"
0:12 RDJ played a guy who picked on 2 science/tech nerds who accidentally created a Powerful Self-Aware AI. Let that sink in…
He needs a writers credit
I was just thinking the same thing. Basically all the great moments that are well loved were created by the actors. Which now makes sense, since now they are gone, why all the movies SINCE then are sh*t.

"please be a secret door, please be a secret door" . . ."yay :D"
On the contrary- these are good examples of what makes RDJ’s *scene partners* good actors.
Dude, I thought you'd include the Jericho missile speech! RDJ improvised that whole thing from start to finish! 😊
"That man is playing Galaga! Thought we wouldn't notice... but we did"
EASILY my favorite
Iron Man 1 is arguably one of the best movies in the MCU. So, to hear that the film didn't have a fleshed out conclusion and that RDJ improvised that Tony Stark reveals to the world that he is Iron Man is absolutely insane!
And over a decade later, we have the silly fun callback in Deadpool Wolverine. RDJ's random improv made Marvel cinematic pop culture history!!!
The best patt of MCU proves why he is a top sector of MCU.
He is criminally underrated he definitely deserved an Oscar in one of his marvel movies
1:01 "Forgot his blocking"?
Huh? Blocking is a set of staged actions or movements when performing he didn't say anything wrong about it
@PersimmonTheRainwing he probably didn't know the term, maybe he thought he actually meant "forgot he was blocking" but yeah you're right it's a phrase used on sets
Y'know thats a funny image now. I've heard the term blocking for stage directions so much that I forgot it meant other things.
This individual thought they were talking about blocking in terms of a fight-like blocking, and that makes me laugh
I've liked him in all his movies. I really loved his portrayal of Sherlock Holmes.
Robert is such an amazing actor and performer and improviser they should be teaching a master class about him.
Remember this guy turned his life around, sure it helps to be good looking charming and smart personally I respect the man's strength of will most over the other things I mentioned. Anyone can be born with lucky genes but there are falls most people don't get up from even the best of us
Robert Downy Jr. truly is Tony Stark! Both are charismatic, witty, chatty, smart, and neither of them EVER stick to a script completely… and yet somehow they always make it work!
Marvel still missed an opportunity with not playing Black Sabbath’s Iron Man when Stark does the snap.
"We're not there yet." LMAO
A lot of the movies wouldn't be the same without these additions
It would have been weird if Holland made room for Downey to sit before his intent to sit was known. They're both good at making a scene believable.
got it, so rdj is what helped give a lot of the mcu its charm with improvisation
Sherlock Holmes--- the "Discombobulate" monolog was written by Downey.
6:06 I bet that laugh was genuine
Robert not only going off script but is improving the script
He deserved the second chance in Hollywood.
6:08 is perfect bcs he's supposed to be drunk in that scene and that crack up makes him sound absolutely shitfaced
can i have this video, but without the ai generated narration?
Seriously. Ai voices are horrible
1:38 predicted Covid.
I can only facepalm to this comment from how stupid it is.
@@Raidraptor_-_Ultimate_Falcon chill
@@alexjustalexyt1144 ??
Its about letting go of concern in a flame-tastic ❤ breathtaking 😍 ✨️ showdown of resolution of conjure and religuishment of hope
RDJ, the King of Improv
And this why RDJ is my favorite actor (along with Keanu Reeves).
I watch the first avenger when I'm still in highschool and I still wonder, who still plays Galaga?
This is probably just me but they missed the full full circle by playing black sabbath’s iron man in endgame
I really really want to see Deadpool and Ironman together with the guardians of the Galaxy i bet that would be comedy gold.
gotta say as an aussie that accent is Natural Born KIllers was Killer.
Sometimes i forget hes not just iron man
1:19 Am I going crazy or is that the same barn used in Transformers Age of Extinction movie for Cade Yeager's inventions
4:18-4:19 Anyone notice Cap’s head snap in the video like it was a poorly edited cut lmao
Robert doesn’t play iron man he is iron man
There would be no tony without him
RDJ really is responsible for the MCU’s success, as well as the general lack of secret identity shenanigans in the mcu (Spider-Man excluded)
❤ that guy..
Sometimes he gets off script in order to get on board.
I’m convinced that they don’t write any lines for him at this point
7:40 That's so fucking CUTE!!!
So a bunch of the MCU's most memorable moments and characters choices were RDJ ad libs fixing incomplete scripts. No wonder things fell apart so quickly after they killed him off.
That car is fkt up..
6:00 in spanish "coldstain(?), dame una percusion para percu-**wheeze**-tir a mi amigo"
Why would you splice the i am iron man scene like that.
really hate when directors force actors to stay to the script… like these off-script moments and actions make any movie so much more organic and natural.
Bottomline, how many people can do Blackface and people love it? RDJ rules.
iirc the movie was actually done, finished. they actually recalled all the actors just to film the shawarma scene.
" yay! :D "
I wonder how many of these "improvs" in videos like this were ACTUALLY improvs. Seems easy enough to just take great lines from a bunch of movies and say "These were all improv'ed!"
Apparently like *most* of the first Iron Man movie was done without a script
Tony and Ross talk was the first of the mamy miss shot im Marvel history
did this guy even have a script in the mcu??? theres like 10 improv scenes per movie lmfao
what was the guys name ?
Can you go "off script" if the scene is unscripted?
damn. now i know why marvel went downhill after rdj left, he was writing more than half the script
Wow he's so super good at playing pretend.
Didn’t a kid tell him to say I am iron man
RDJ is almost as cool as RJD 🤘
Feels weird to watch honestly. The MCU feels now over for me. None of my friends are watching any new movies anymore and there aren't any more coming out which I feel like are worth watching.
I will, however, watch all of them, from start to End Game when I get the time for it.
yay! lol
Prem stop using ai thumbnails, how many times do I have to say this
YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Is it really acting if you are just being yourself?
Not all improv is good. A few of these, imo, detract from the work, or break the th wall a tad.
Think about people with super intelligence. A lot of them are very childish and playful, most even speaking to themselves a lot, even with people in the room.
69th comment.
AI generated crap
I love RDJ, but that was one awful Ozzie accent
The video would be 100x better if an actual person voiced the damn lines inbetween clips. Ai voices are shit
I’m not really an Iron Man fan
That's unfortunate
Good for you champ.
The iron man movie are the worst out of all the marvel movies im talking Under the boot bad
