    As a Knicks fan, what Ben said about being a Knicks fan just resonates with me so much.

  • @ZatharticTendencies
    @ZatharticTendencies 2 года назад +64

    Happy Gilmore, Zoolander, Starsky and Hutch, Night Of The Museum, Meet The Fockers, Dodgeball Tropic Thunder (my fav Stiller movie) The Watch, Secret Life Of Walter Mitty, all just great films in their own right, he was my childhood and I’ll always be thankful for his art. Shout out Ben Stiller and JJ for getting him on this platform.

    You know he's good when you first mention his name and people instantly remember different films of his and make references to them. Such a good actor. For me due to my age it was Night at the Museum that came to mind first

    Severance was the first show that made me take Apple+ seriously, I got the streaming service after ep 2. I loved this dude's movies as a kid, its great to see him doin well bro. I hope he direct variety of shows, absolute national treasure!

    • @jroc721
      @jroc721 2 года назад +3

      If this is the first show that made you take apple+ serious recommend going back and looking at their older stuff. Ted Lasso, the foundation, and the morning show just to name a few.

    • @coderedlin
      @coderedlin 2 года назад +7

      @@jroc721 For All Mankind, Ted Lasso, Foundation, The Shrink Next Door. Apple TV+ is the best bargain of the streaming services right now.

    To describe being a Knicks fan is to try and imagine you’re a fan of a small Texas town high school football team Friday night lights like, the joy that team of high schoolers gives to the local townspeople, that intensity, that’s how Knicks fans feel, it feels personal to be a fan of them, it’s not superficial, and we just want to share that joy, with winning

  • @jonathanlee323

    Really charming episode. Surprised at how chill Stiller seems when it's not just a press junket.

  • @pesky716
    @pesky716 2 года назад +44

    After watching the finale, I can feel confident that Severance is an all-time Top 10 show. I was worried if it would stick the landing, and the finale exceeded my expectations.

      @user-dc7um4pr3f 2 года назад

      One season doesn't mean it'll be that great. Many other shows have flamed out or ruined the finale of the show. Still a lot of time and story left to tell, but it seems like it will be great.

    When I was around 16 or so I played against this short, super hairy, super sweaty guy who also took off his shirt and played by backing you down. His sweat was so thick it was like gelatin. I've never forgotten it. As movie scenes one might like to relate to go, it's not the one I would pick but there it is.
