He doesn't seem to fit very well in the 21st century. He said he has never owned a cell phone (god knows how he's contacted then), and he didn't even know that the Simpsons, one of the most famous and influential cultural icons of this century was a T.V show, indicates that he doesn't really care all that much about things other than his film making topics.
@@MegaHariboboy Yes, but let’s not get that backwards: he’s not a Luddite or technophobe, these things are just tools. He’s got stuff to do, and a mobile phone that commands your attention is a distraction: not owning one is a huge privilege, because he sure as hell has people who work for him, who do own a mobile phone, or probably three. And popular culture exists in silos, too: I’ve never played video games as an adult, because I know I would get lost in them and spend too much time. So even though I roughly know what’s going on, there’s a whole world out there of which I’m not aware. So yes, Werner is not like the other children, but a lot of it is just focus, not eccentricity.
Herzog has this wonderful habit of popping up in shows where you’d never expect him. Parks and Rec, The Simpsons, The Boondocks, American Dad, The Mandalorian and even Rick and Morty. He also provided a voice for the English dub of an under appreciated Studio Ghibli film, The Wind Rises.
A lot of people his age don't. I remember my Uncle discovered the Simpsons in his 60's and telling me how great it is. His generation didn't have always on access to every bit of information in the world and had other things to occupy them instead of TV.
I watched the Reacher he was in while recovering from retinal surgery. I was terrified I would go blind. The movie in general was very entertaining. However, the scene Herzog references with the fingers had me in stiches laughing hysterically. He's delivering these monster lines in the tone of, "would you like some tea?" and that juxtaposition along with his voice and the eye make up just had me howling. It really helped my healing. And btw, I can see out of that eye. P.S. the line that just slayed me was when the "subcriminal" as he calls it, couldn't bring himself to chew off his own fingers at Herzog's character's behest, one of the henchman shoots the "subcriminal" dead and Herzog's character says in a complete monotone: "Always the bullet. I don't understand." I lost it.
Dear Mr. Herzog, Your films will forever be embedded in the memories of my youth, many fond memories. The depth and beauty of your entire oeuvre will continue to be an inspiration to both filmmakers and writers. Cheers!
@@AConquerorsVendetta He appeared as a version of himself on the premier episode of Season 3 titled "It's a Black President, Huey Freeman".....I remembered when it first premiered I couldn't believe they got Werner Herzog to lend his unique voice to the show that I couldn't wait to see the end credits to make sure it was really him lol
I know he doesn’t appreciate paul f tompkin’s impression but you can tell paul understands and relates to werner. As do I. I only have connected with his world view along with H.R. Geiger. Nature is cruel, man can control it as much as they can but nature will always win in the end. We must have as much fun and find as much fulfillment as we can possibly obtain and many will not achieve fulfillment so we must be grateful. Good work conan thank you for this. And thank you for talking about my friend from high school Basil with his official conan trash can bit. That meant the world to me.
I’m a little upset they didn’t mention his role in Rick and Morty, he practically stole the episode for me. That four line monologue he gives always kills me whenever I watch that episode Interdimensional Cable 2.
Yeah, Conan is an intellectual and went to Harvard. Only us intellectuals understand the groundbreaking comedy that exists in the universe of Rick & Morty
Mission Impossible and John Wick could both do with Herzog cameos. Maybe the next Wick flick could start with Herzog narrating about how bad ass Wick is?
@@smradztoiek I don't mean to be rude, but that's famous celebrity Rich Evans, the man has been seen on The Ellen Show. He deserves your respect. Not a lot of it, not even some of it, but a little bit.
Love his guest star appearances, especially on The Simpsons. It looked exactly like him as well. His German accent is so awesome and sarcastic sense of humour. 😆🤣😂👑💎⚜️🏆🇩🇪🎧🎙️
They are kind of right about the preservation of different medias. We can still read Shakespeare plays from the middle ages but we have lost hundreds of good films from early 20th century due to cost cutting or accidental warehouse fires. And storing movies on digital medium like on a hard drive, ssd, usb stick, dvd, blu-ray, etc. isn't safe either in long-term due to bit rot. Tapes are great in long-term preservation but they are not as accessible as other formats.

I was JUST thinking about that finger eating scene from Jack Reacher yesterday! Lol. Such a good scene. I was wondering if I could bite 2 fingers off to save my life.
i would love to watch/hear more about why or how they think writing will last much longer than his films, i agree but not for the main reasons they said, and also the first movies and not 5sec tiktoks are only abou 140 years apart, idk 1885 been around first "Movie" and not 2010 tik tok comes out, and now humans just have shorter focus now and tik tok, instagraghm, youtube, etc etc. all use the 20 sec format. and so much of that has been consumers sick and tired of word or time padding, in america it took 15 years for youtube/google when they bought it after 4 years, that youtube videoes where 10:24(almost always even # but i think it was just for how youtube uploading or hosted stuff idk lmao sec, becuase youtube didnt pay you for the ads if its not 10 min, so 2010-2015 where mostly 10min vids just for the ad money and it was a meme and got so big or it was 6mounths after google bought them they changed i think idk.

german most likely first, and then perhaps helps around with the translation to get it as close as possible to the original. you can convey alot more linguistic poetry in german than you can in english, movie scripts might be in english first.. but i reckon his books are german first.

His monotone voice works equally well for comedy and horror. Combined with his infectious sincerity, this man is a global treasure.
i love that herzog seems to be totally unaware about conan having written for the simpsons.

YOU'RE TELLING ME THAT CONAN WROTE FOR THE SIMPSONS?!?! WHAT?!?

Interesting
surprising someone as intelligent as him was in shows for unintelligent people, like american dad or rick and morty.
Conan: "One of the most popular TV shows of ALL time around the world"
Werner: "I did not know that"
bruh 😂
It's adorable how honest he is. 🤣
For a second thought this was my comment like "I don't remember saying this"
A lot of people his age don't. I remember my Uncle discovered the Simpsons in his 60's and telling me how great it is. His generation didn't have always on access to every bit of information in the world and had other things to occupy them instead of TV.
My favorite parody is Paul F. Tompkins doing Werner Herzog writing a Yelp review of Trader Joe's. 😆
"...be sure to get the dark chocolate peanut butter cups, they are right by the register"
"Madness reigns." 😂
I actually love the bit where Tompkins plays Herzog doing commercials. It's so good.

His deadpan delivery was genuinely funny in a VERY dark way lol
Fred Willard and him were in The Boondocks and they said the"n" word a bunch, its really funny.

Thank you, Mr. Werner, for doing the Simpsons work. Always glad to welcome newbies into Springfield.
BEST. INTERVIEW. EVER.
Herzog should be cast more often, he is great as actor as well!
Werner Herzog calmly telling me and encouraging me to eat my fingers will be my next fever dream.
He does have a terrifying presence. But it's nice to see him being nice
We need more Werner Herzog in our daily lives. Genuinely an incredibly fascinating and unique man.
Badass actor
His guest appearance episode on The Boondocks is one of the best things in television history
Wait what?? I must have missed that!
@@AConquerorsVendetta He appeared as a version of himself on the premier episode of Season 3 titled "It's a Black President, Huey Freeman".....I remembered when it first premiered I couldn't believe they got Werner Herzog to lend his unique voice to the show that I couldn't wait to see the end credits to make sure it was really him lol
His voice is iconic. Sounds like best movie villan voice.
He was incredible in Metalocalypse
\m/
I loved his appearance in "Parks and Rec". Just standing there watching April and Andy.

"But bounty hunting is a complicated profession" yeap in my isolation covid time, this Man voice was something that stayed in my memory.

Werner Herzog is one of the most fascinating people in the world.

His performance on Julien Donkey-Boy is so phenomenal and full of quotes.
him pointing out the “anarchy” of the simpsons reminds me exactly of conans impression of him
The way he says “Evil” is so awesome 😂
Wasn't he a narrator on an episode of American Dad?
I remember spilling my coffee when I saw Werner Herzog cameo in Parks and Rec.
I had no idea Herzog used his voice for a character from the Simpson, but I find it formidable anyway.
His cameo in Parks & Recreation was his best role.
The Boondocks episode that Herzog narrates is one of my favorite things ever
thie guys insane and I love it
We only get video clips of Coco's podcast, right? The full version in video form isn't available, right?
seems to be the case.
Sounds like Giovanni Giorgio :)
Very few people know this, but Conan once worked on The Simpsons.
I think he was an intern or something.
Sarcasm doesnt translate very well in these comment sections. If you’re not being sarcastic… Dude, Conan talks about the Simpsons all the time
This Conan guy is definitely impressive. He's brilliant, hilarious and likeable! If he works hard, I can see him making it to TV someday.
Sarcasm in language is a form of irony that requires tone and familiarity to be conveyed effectively. This is a basic tenant of sarcasm. Texting to strangers is the complete opposite of that. @@SpaceJockey805
But Conan is a tv guy; isn't the Simpsons just this comic-book stuff that you read in the papers?

image him as a walmart door greeter 😨
Very good 👍 👏 👌
As Werner finds some roles are in tents, his one in the Simpsons was campy
I hope they gave Werner episodes from the first 10 seasons of the simpsons, cause there is no way he respected anything after that
Let's not forget about Shrimply Pibbles!
Guest appearance in Rick and Morty, too 😊
I want Werner Herzog to do my eulogy
My name is Werner Herzog, but everybody calls me Giorgio.....

Werner Herzog sounds like Arnold Schwarzenegger with a head cold and a sore throat. :) Close your eyes and listen.:) :)
If you die and THIS is the first voice you hear... 😈

He writes in the language of tortured souls.
lol never knew.
books are only footprints of knowledge...
What about his turn on The Venture Bros.?
books are more durable than movies discuss
Matt Groaning. Finally.
As soon as he clears his throat, his career is over.
