I’d listen to five hours of Damon’s funny movie stories. They’re fantastic.
Him, Affleck, Mewes and Kevin Smith would be a great podcast episode. I think Mewes and Smith actually had/have a podcast called Jay and Silent Bob get old.
I want your playlist!!
One of the rare instances where the interviewer lets the guest tell a story without being interrupted.
yeah because he looked out of place with no real questions
And Graham Norton’s show
He did try to get in there tho, Damon shut him down
THis has become one of the most common comments. I think there aren't as many shitty interviewers as you guys think.
Dont interviewers drive you mad interrupting ?
Matt Damon talking about his past movies and people he's worked with is fantastic. He's so good and full of joy. This " I don't have the money" and " So I got a new safety guy" have become phrases I use. 😂
Lmao I'm pretty sure the "so I got a new safety guy" was Tom Cruise my boy
@@Katzendaugs It is... but Matt Damon tells the story about it and it's brilliant. That's what I'm referring to.
“But if you leave the camera rolling…”
Matt Damon is an amazing storyteller! Could listen all day! ❤
A special talent!
Did you say matt damon is an amazing storyteller? Pity he didnt tell any stories about harvey weinstein and chose his money success (making movies with miramax) over speaking out and shooting that cash cow - EVERYONE KNEW WHAT WAS GOING ON AT THE TIME.
And humble too
"Payy himm. Pay dat mann his muney."
He beet me, strejt ap....

I've watched a few recent Matt Damon interviews and fuk.... he's the best story teller. Probably why everyone loves him.
Yeah, agree. You should watch this one if you haven't yet :) the way he tells a story about Ben Affleck's son is priceless ruclips.net/video/ZW1QCnlA6Qc/видео.html
@@rikaryu5411 Heh, that was great.
Everyone except Jimmy Kimmel.
All his stories happened to him, and he can impersonate the other person: I fired him, Matt. Telling Tom Cruise story and he gets the intensity just right.
3 years later, watch Damon's interview on "Off Camera with Sam Jones"... great one
I agree with Matt there. That moment is special. John Malkovich is a legend even among his peers. That man was born to act. He is absolutely brilliant!
Just shouldn’t do a Russian accent.
It was on obviously done on purpose.
Matt Damon is just the best.
J Hughes you sound super gay.
you're right.
He hasn't made very many good movies...
oh, wait!
jsj297 you sound super insecure.
yeah....even a fun Matt Damon interview attracts Trump Trolls....god help us
Just another reason to like him ;p
I see this dude everywhere. And he is one of the best interviewers in the world. So tuned into culture and media
This interviewer is great because he doesn’t look for dirt or wants to sensationalize things - he is just spot on & I can tell actors like him.
His name is Ali Plumb. Still the best interviewer I've ever seen, can charm the pants off of anyone. You can tell he really loves movies and his passion is infectious. U should watch his interview with Stephen Spielberg and you'll get what I mean.
Like Matt Damon very much. Seems honest and real. Is dedicated to his craft.
If I'm flipping through channels and I see Malkovich in anything, I stop and watch. Case closed. He's an incredible actor in my book.
If you like Malkovich! One of my favorite Play from him is when he personnate Valmont in a french style movie with Glen Close! He plays a french count full of himself, selfish, self centered! But His act make me watch it over and over again! You would think thats Girl movie but seriously ...if you like him...you have to see is performance!! Hes amazing!!
He's the only reason I can sit through Con-Air.
I was forced to watch Dangerous Liasons..... Shocking how fantastic acting can make, just about any story be watchable.
"I'M GETTING THE PIG!!"
I just flipped through and watched the 2nd half of In the Line of Fire a few days ago.
Malkovich's character was so larger than life that it makes the movie more memorable. Imagine if it was played straight. We wouldn't have all the great lines.
I agree. It is like Al Pacino is Devil's Advocate. Sometimes over the top acting can fit the movie and doesn't have to be a bad thing.
Haha, would be a pleasure to meet both Damon and Malkovich over brunch.
Geeeeve thyat myan hees eggs and tyoast
Dont forget to bring the Oreos
Why not over spaghetti?
Or tequila...
Here, have a Hall's mentho-lyptus. When I was a kid, we used to suck on old pennies, and it was a delight!
Oh man. That was a gem. So glad I watched this!
I'm sure Toby Mcguire can perfectly explain the underground poker scene to Matt
I really love this story and am thankful Matt shared it
Whenever I'm down, I come to this video to see Matt Damon imitate JMs lines from the film. Absolutely hilarious! Epiccc
I saw rounders like a 100 times still not sick of it. Ps boiler room, 25th hour are amazing to.
Literally my 3 favorite movies
I discovered bout 10 years ago watched it alot too
Could be his best performance imo ... One of my best films. Practically flawless. And he was unaware of what Malcovich was doing at the time ...
@T T They're both good.
It’s the angsty white boy starter pack! But you forgot Boondock Saints and Donnie Darko.
Cool story! And even though I’ve watched Red and Red 2 dozens of times, I never get tired of watching Malkovich’s hysterical facial expressions!
Malkovich in Space Force- watch season one. You will NOT regret
*OMG* In Red where he says, "I'm gettin' the pig!!" and then, the scene where he chases the VP wearing the giant toy clock bomb. Absolutely some of the funniest stuff ever!
@@jadefire2817 Never ever gets old.
Love the RED movies. John is great in both.
@@jimthar17 Absofrickinlutely!
I always did laugh at his Russian loanshark accent. But rounders is one of my top 10 favorites. Back then Matt Damon could do no wrong
Damon has done so much in the last 20 years! Private Ryan, the Rainmaker to Ripley to Bourne to the Ocean movies, the good shepherd, plus Hunting, Green Zone and the Martian and that scratches the surface!
You forgot his masterpiece: Stuck on you
@@waydebaker33 lol of course! One of the deeply moving cinema experiences of our time. Insightful. Emotional. Devastating!
also to show a little different face: Dogma
"That scratches the surface"...
In other news, a "bare" escaped from the local zoo.
John Malkovich did zero prep for this role. Just walked right on set and was like, “oh, Russian mobster? Okay, yeah. I can do that. ‘Pyay dat man hiz myanee.’ Pretty good, huh?”
So Malkovich purposely did a really horrible accent to demonstrate how people will admire any "acting" just because he's John fucking Malkovich??
Brilliant!
Khashon Haselrig no he did that on purpose to test the people around him, like the crew and cast.
More likely trying something out that didn’t work - or goofing around but not expecting that reaction.
You really think he’s the kind of guy to start a new job by embarrassing everyone on set?
nah he just couldn’t get the accent right. He’s human.
Explanation is simple: Malkovich knows ‘’who he is’’…
@@benneden2580 Nope, the accent was never anything but his version of Teddy KGB. He just did a hilariously terrible accent to get a rise out of Matt.
I love rounders it is very underrated, John Malkovich scenes are memorable.
Rounders - one of my favorite movies of all time - awesome!
I love every aspect of this lol so awesome. Damon and Malkovich are both so awesomely talented. Respect
Matt Damon, what a legend. Genuinely enthusiastic and nice giving what must be his millionth interview. Tosspots like Bruce Willis could learn something.
I think like 99 percent of Hollywood actors could take a lesson on Matt Damon’s generosity, and kindness. Most every interview he is always cool even with ppl on the streets asking questions and taking pics.
Nah my man bruce does the work..who cares about the actor
Bruce Willis never played liberace's boy toy and walked around in high heels like Matt Damon did on HBO, man what some people will do for money, never could look at him the same way after seeing him in that movie
It's called acting, my man. If you don't mind me calling you "My man". Then Michael Douglas must have blown your mind as Liberace. Looks like you may need therapy to separate the performer from the character they play. And as Peter Graves said in Airport: "Do you like watching gladiator movies, son??"
Matt needs to do a tour of these stories he tells it so well
Never get tired of this movie. Not many can pull that off
Love that John Malkovich is playing a somewhat similar character in the TV show BILLIONS.
Since the early 2000s me and 3-4 friends play poker like once a year and drink beer all night and we play this movie in the background. The record is 4 times. Those are magical nights.
Let me buy in your game
One of the few movies I can watch again and again and again
Matt Damon deserves all he was paid
...."GIVE THAT MAN HIS....."
Thank you Matt. You have no idea how much that means to me. No explanation. "I am a terrible actor". Ty.
Wow this seems like a good interview, they're just having a great conversation.
.
Yeah......Damon seems VERY engaged. Many times you see these things and it's clear the celeb is in "Auto" mode, with kind of a glazed look on their face, simply spitting back the types of responses they're expected to give. But if you look at this one closely, Matt Damon's attitude, expressions, and mannerisms clearly seem to indicate he's fully 'dialed in' .
Then again, who really knows??
.
Best poker movie “hands down” lol
It was my favorite also until DEAL.
From what I read, it appears John Malkovich gets the parts for his personality and positive effect on the crew as much as his stellar acting. Pretty rare in Holleywood.
Malkovich always uses the same foreign accent no matter what foreign country his character is supposed to be from.
@@bluefamily3937 Can't be any worse than John Wayne playing Genghis Khan.
Seems like such a sound guy
He's an actor, not a sound guy, ya doofus
TheTruthiest :D
TheTruthiest- Master stroke, sir.
TheTruthiest clearly knew that you Muppet
No one knew poker existed until Matt Damon played in a movie.
Right! LOL
When I first saw Maverick, which came out years before Rounders, I already knew about poker. Also i was in Kindergarten…
@@rosamittermeier5214 fun movie.
Texas holdem became really popular right after this movie but a part of that is because of ESPN and the World Series of Poker.
He is talking about Texasholdem. Poker before the 2000's was mainly 5 card draw.
Every time I drop a deuce, I say "I weeel splayshe ze pot"
Whenever da fack....I want
Laaays daaawn a mawnster
Fantastic story told so well. John is brilliant, and Matt is too.
I’ve seen Rounders too many times to count. Sometimes I’ll just play it in the background while I’m doing something else. A very comfortable thing.
evan penn I do the same thing lol
its a little dated now
i come back and watch this anecdote every now and then because it's so hilarious.
But now so many people know the quotes:
'Meester Son of a Beetch, let's play some Cartes...'
Yes Malkovich did a bad exaggerated accent on purpose(as Matt imitates) and everyone on the set (excluding Matt) applauded. "When you get to that point and no one gives you a straight answer it can be dangerous." Seems like some comments didn't get the point or exaggeration.
Not sure I follow. Pretty sure Matt meant that he was so famous and popular that nobody had the heart to tell him it was a bad scene or accent and that can be dangerous. What else could Matt possibly mean?
I'm still not sure I fully get it lol. Care to explain?
@@skins4thewin think you're filming something and you need some music, now pick the greatest musician that you personally love and ask em to write you a musical score for your film. That musician will study your film and give you a sample of what they think your film needs. You will listen and because he/she is your icon of music or whatever, you'll gush over it saying omg its beautiful and perfect and etc etc. But the musician him/herself knows that its not complete and in all possibility its shit compared to what it can be and they need your feed back
but you're too busy applauding and saying its wonderful to give any kind of real critique, and you stunt the musician's ability to create something truly wonderful.
That's the dangerous bit. It's not that he's a bad actor, but if everyone is applauding you and in love with you. You're never gonna get the critique and honest feed back you need to take your skill/performance/whatever to the next level.
no actually, everyone besides Matt thought he was great when he was in fact bad. And upon Matt's reaction, John realizes it's bad, and says "I'm a terrible actor". Basically he too realizes that it's not working. But it's all okay, because it's brave and sweet to take chances. Apparently he toned it down and found the right voice for the character.
@@89strangelove Well that's pretty much what I gathered, but everyone else here seems to think otherwise.
“I’m a terrible actor.” 😂 I lol’d.
I could listen to Damon tell stories all day
i came across that film by accident back around 01/02 and fuckin loved it right away.
yup. me too
Absolutely loved Rounder's .... Excellent cast !!
It is such a singularly strong movie that a sequel is not needed nor desired.
@@ledeyabaklykova much like your comment 🤣😅😆🖕
Damon is up there with Russell Crowe in storytelling. Talent!
This is actually my favorite movie of all time
I regularly say "Pay him. Pay that man his money." just for no reason.
Matt Damon is amazing at telling stories, love the guy.
I enjoyed him in the titanic
well played
haahahahahaha
Wetdookie It was not him, you dumb ass. It was DiCaprio
Dr. VI you're either ignorant to satire or a bored troll. be gone, sir. **tosses salt on Dr.VI** be gone!
Justin McNeil i am just your imagination (x3)
It is great when interviewers do not run out of time for Matt Damon
OMG this is so hilarious!! Matt really knows how to tell a great story
Just think he won an oscar for his story his story telling. Lol
Dig your sarcasm.
He’s quite a nice bloke - I might even prefer a few of the interviews I’ve seen to some of his performances ha
Malkovich came onto my radar way back when he did that movie with Clint Eastwood, In the Line of Fire. He was creepy terrifying in that movie! His voice is everything too. Loved the movie Rounders too, both Damon and Norton were amazing.
Matt Damon and Edward Norton competed for roles. I just realized Rounders is Damon’s Fight Club.
Excellent film. Total remote dropper. John Turturro as Knish and Martin Landau also fabulous. Malkovic is legendary. Michael Rispoli also awesome
This interviewer deserves a raise. I saw him interviewing Tom Cruise and he just gets along so well with the actors.
Rounders is in my Top 10 films of all time, so brilliant!
This is a truly awesome movie,and the take-a-ways from it are huge. Compassion for gambling addiction mainly,but the acting by everyone in the movie was.what made this one excellent!
That was hilarious, you to have watch the movie to realise how funny that impression was.
"EEEF YOU DON'T cHAVE MY MONEEEII DEYN YooOO ARE MIIIiiNE"!
This interviewer must be sensational. Matt is clearly very comfortable and open. You can learn a lot about an interviewer by the guest's body language. Matt is having a good time here and that says loads about the way the interview is being conducted.
Best laugh I've had in a while. Thanks. Malkovich is such a damn character. Actually inspires me to try acting, because who says you have to be conventional to be good?
Like Malkovich, you have to be good for a very long time before you can be unconventional.
@@inscrutianaIII'm not sure this is really relevant, but I was told by a voice-acting coach that her observation was the people who nailed jobs were people who came up with original takes on a character -- how their voice would be different or their emotions would be over the top or they'd be cool or cruel or soft spoken or ... you know... there would be this defining thing about them... and NONE of it would be in the script, it was just an approach to take, and those people were the ones who would fearlessly do their conception, their original take on the character and go 110% all-in, and an amazing number of times, the director and/or producers would just be floored by the bravery of doing that, and be mulling with each other about how they hadn't seen the character quite like that.... and next day.... the actor would get the call saying they got the role. In large part, just by being committed and fearless.
the performance MALKOVICH gave was sorta panned for being campy and over the top but really it was pure genius...anybody who has ever seen the movie just like the interviewer here remembers TEDDY KGB
And the bonus has to be that Malkovich has an amazing sense of humor, no? Totally aware of what he was doing. Hilarious. Ida been on the floor laughing my ass off.
Definitely has a great sense of humor. Hosted SNL & killed. Also old Letterman appearances.
@@samanthab1923 And willing to laugh at himself. Not easily pushed around though. I remember him on Letterman one time. As he occasionally did, Dave was resorting to cheap, belittling comments about his guest. I was surprised at how quick-witted and cutting Malkovich was in return. Made Dave, a smart quick guy, look relatively foolish and lazy.
nearly choked on my banana when he gave the punchline xD
I didn't realise Malkovich was trying to sound like Krang.
krang?
+MaquiladoraIII
Not enough people got this reference. ;)'
@@B1astFriend The brain villain from TMNT
Don't say "TMNT?" LOL
+EK
That's the one! Lmao!
Check check check! He trapped me! 🤣💕👍
I first became aware of John Malkovich in 'Dangerous Liasions'.
One of my favourite scenes of his was as 'Booth' in 'In The Line of Fire', when he's talking to Clint Eastwood's character on the phone and he's very calm until he says the line, "You owe me some GODDAMN RESPECT!"
Still gives me goosebumps 30 years down the line.
That line was ferocious
Thank God for Matt Damon otherwise none of us would know about the game of poker
Happy Gilmore brought more attention to golf than rounders did to poker.
"The public, at large, didn't know about poker"
How is he wrong?
@codymoe4986
Poker has seen periods of popularity throughout its history, including:


1800s
Poker originated in the American South and became popular during the riverboat gambling era. It spread west with settlers and became a staple of American culture.


1970s
The World Series of Poker began in 1970, which led to the rise of modern tournament play and poker's popularity increasing. The first poker strategy books were also published during this time.

1980s
Poker became a common recreational activity in popular culture, appearing in Star Trek: The Next Generation. California legalized hold'em, Omaha, and stud in 1987, which led to a dramatic increase in the number of poker games played in the state.

2000s
The poker boom occurred between 2003 and 2006, largely due to the rise of online poker and the televising of the game.
@@codymoe4986 you have the intelligence of a gold fish
well spoken as always
Thoroughly enjoyed this.
Matt Damon is in a few of my all-time favorite movies.... Rounders, Good Will Hunting, Ocean’s 11.
He’s also in maybe the most disturbing movie i’ve ever seen... Beyond the Candelabra.
guess you havent seen AntiChrist
I can watch that movie over and over. Just great
Malkovich : "I'm a terrible actor."
Matt Damon: "No shit."
Best comment.
He's better than Damon lol....what does Damon do besides play a bostonian
You cannot have a world without John Malkovich in it.
Malkovich, He's so good.
When Im young, I don't even know he in the movie till i google the actors
Malkovich is the man!
Great clip, John is so brilliant in everything he does !!!! His characters are amazing !!! Matt not too shabby either !!!
1:35 LMAO!!! Jesus Christ that's Jason Bourne!
they should do the whole series with this accent hahahahah
To this day I’ll say the lines out loud on occasion when I’m driving, just for hoots and hollers: “Payee heem. Payee thayat mayeen hees moneey.”
That was kind of John, great way to relieve tension
I actually started saying malkovich malkovich malkovich precisely at the same time as they did.
He was brilliant in "The Italian Job" and "Shutter Island" .
I loved when he was biteing gilbert grape
Shutter Island is Caprio, I think...
John Malkovich, Long May You Live Sir.
This is a great story!
Sounds like Malkovich needs his Momento Mori. That attendee whispering to John.... "Remember you are mortal"
I’m played in a unground circuit in Ct. Some of the best times of my life
Mark Walberg is just too funny! ;-)
Porkys revenge
Blacula.
When mark gets in you face hes sound like hes out of breath after running a couple miles.
I loved him in Animal house as well.lol
Wow i'm legit crying LOL that was hilariously spot on!
What makes Malkovich so great is anybody else that tries to do what he does is just a terrible actor. He owns it.
My goodness im trembling from choking back my laughter for fear of waking up the house.
love Rounders, a really underrated flick.
Impersonation is the sincerest form of flattery. I consider the "Team Amerca" homage to very highly intelligent Matt Damon to be spot on🙂
I sincerely love Matt Damon. Terrific actor. Thanks.
Matt Damon truly is a better actor than Ben Affleck in every single way.
I thought Ben was great in the accountant and the way back. Matt is the better actor, maybe? But I like Ben's movies more.
@@TJ-fe7rr No maybe about it. Casey is definitely the actor in the Affleck family.
It hurts doesn't it? Your hopes dashed, your dreams down the toilet. And your fate is sitting right besides you. AWESOME MOVIE AND TEDDY KGB HAS THE BEST QUOTES. :0)
