+mathew entson Kinda does though, its like he has no personality. How can he be the "purest" comic when he can't actually come up with a joke or be funny on the spot without reciting, nearly verbatim, his stand up jokes? Interview was pretty boring if you've watched his stand up before seeing this.
i've seen his standup. Yes, he used his own jokes. But that still isn't contrary to Jake Marsings comment, at all. "not mixed or adulterated with any other substance or material." it's literally the definition of "pure". He is exactly what you're saying he isn't.
+mathew entson ok so dictionary says that. How about a more contextual definition then. Pure meaning he is good in all aspects of comedy. Nah, because he can't be funny on the spot judging from this interview. I disagree that he's a pure comic because of that.
Yeah that movie got me all excited but ended up letting me down. I wanted a fun heist like the Oceans 11 but instead it was 8 women with no flaws and no development who pull off a heist with no complications or throw offs. Its like everything had to be perfect and the women could make one mistake. Bummer too cuz these women are so talented and wouldve been great with a better story.
A lot of people are pissing on comedians when they retell jokes, let me tell you a thing: If it works, it works. Not everyone will have heard a comedian before, and most change their acts when they go back to certain cities, but c'mon now, not everyone likes stand up, they like little snippets because they want short laughs. I personally find his jokes funny, New in Town is hilarious and I've watched it at least 4 times and still laugh...
Basilisk Ishikir No lie, if I ever do stand up, a large portion of my act would be how Stand up is the hardest entertainment business to get into. Musicians get to do cover songs, or whole albums, but comedians? Nooope. Ever seen a comedian do another comic's joke? They get called a theft or a hack!
Yeah that's what I don't get literally every single stand up comic, actor, or celebrity tells the same stories and anecdotes during every single press tour/stand up special tour. It's not like they are coming up with completely new material every single stop they make. That's like going to Les Miserables during Broadway on tour and being pissed because it's the same as the Les Miserables in New York.
Ocean's 12, 55% on Rotten Tomatoes. It kinda DO work Plus, it broke the opening weekend box office record of all the other Ocean's movies. So it REALLY DO worj
GamerzNewb Comedians always re-use material. Only reason it's noticed now a days is because of how easy it is to record their stand up on cell phones and post it every where. It's hard work to constantly come up with something new all the time.
Morro Treece Yeah, I mean they're not just writing material for their own shows they have have to work in some capacity for the entertainment industry. Which at first involves putting yourself out there, getting rejected, getting the job, making a name for yourself, getting some on-screen credits, but most of the time to do what you want in entertainment after that it requires you to have money, and show business experience. Which is why a lot of comedians are also writers, and actors. Having acting chops is important if you're gonna be on stage.
I used to think it was a cop out that he quotes jokes directly from his cd, but now I'm just impressed. It's the exact same wording, the exact same inflection, edited only to cut the not-safe-for-cable words.
@@vincentjames7210 ok, first of all, the hat fits. Second, why did you take that so personally and get so defensive? It's a good piece of conventional dressing wisdom.
for people who dont know how comedy and writing works: every comic has their bit. they bring with them, its their show, its their resume. most characters on sketch shows are characters these people have been doing all their lives. now when it comes to stand up its like people say, its like a musicians set. they have a set of jokes for that particular part in their lives. whether theyre touring or compiling clips or making an album they do a certain set until they are ready to change it. obviously when you get bigger you have to create more and more but you also use what works. like songs we listen to over and over.
John Fitzgerald you must not be the brightest person. I’ll put it in a way that you can understand. Comedians use joke more time than one show, singer sing song more than just one show. Same thing.
@@devyn5174 my reply is a year late too but I completely agree. I used to get annoyed when seeing the same jokes too many times across different shows with comedians but this analogy puts it into perspective.
1:01 sometimes i get offended when guys talk about how girls act with their friends, but then they bring up points like this and i just shut up 'cause i have literally done this before.
I know Mulaney uses the same jokes but I sill love him. He's hilarious, in my opinion. Especially the xanx story. I died laughing at that one. I couldn't even tell it to my friends cause i'd was rolling on the floor laughing so hard. ^^ He's AWESOME! XD
haute03 oh my god get over it, their are actual things to be offended by, this is just a joke about stereotypes about women. it’s not sexist to create humor based on general assumptions about specific groups of people when it’s not overall negative.
It hurt when he said it; I'm conflicted, like I really like the dude and deep down you *know* he ain't really a sexist...but it still stings- Damn female oppression ruins everything 😑😞
+Sluggz659 I loved Ghostbusters, if Ocean's Eight is going to be good like that I'll be very happy, and I'm sure it will, I mean, look at the cast they've got, it's amazing
+Jillian Thornton Well... Yeah... It's part of the set he was currently touring with. You know comedians don't tell original jokes every time they go on stage, right?
Yeah, it really didn't. I really like the Ocean's movies and they work. Ocean's 8 is like they tried to recreate artificially Clooney and Pitt's characters and chemistry, but in the body of women. You see what they went for and the actresses aren't bad at all, but you can tell it's not natural. That's what killed it for me. That and the underwelming and generally bs story. Like, the stories from the other movies weren't even that good, how could they do worse ? Sorry for the rant, but what a waste of time and money to have seen that movie. Even 3 years later.
I love character breaks on SNL. Some people think they ruin the skits, I think it makes them so much better. It's nice to see that the actors think the material is as funny as we do.
i remember seeing mulaneys comedy central special on in middle school as i was going to bed one night, and i literally could not stop laughing. RUclips was kinda new back then so there weren't any vids of it up here but he had some damn good bits; the whats new pussycat on repeat in the diner was gold, and the subway at 2am was gold.
I’ve been on a John Mulaney binge ever since I heard about the rehab and him getting clean. I’ve been trying to see if you could even tell if he was on something during some of these and honestly I think he hides it well but he does talk a little fast sometimes but that might be me just grasping at straws 😂
I know this is an old clip and I've seen it a few times and whatnot, but it always, ALWAYS gets me when I see the two-shot of Mulaney and Conan. And hey, I KNOW Conan is a big guy, but in the two-shot it looks like Conan is normal sized and Mulaney looks, I dunno, as small as a six-year-old.
I love Mulaney, but I hate when comics tell their jokes in an interview (the comment about women trying to do a heist, "I love how you just wear anything"). He is hilarious, he should just be himself.
This guy is hilarious, I discovered him when his bits popped up on my Louis C.K. station on Pandora. I didn't know he was an SNL writer until just now!
John Mulaney's been my favorite stand up comedian since I first saw him and Stefon is my favorite SNL bit of the past few years and only now did I learn that John Mulaney wrote for that.
That's kind of how some of the talk show bits with comedians go. They just tell some of their live jokes for the last time before they have to write more for their next tour. Louis CK used to do this all the time with his talk show appearances.
Lavell Coleman I'm aware of who Patrice O'Neal is I didn't become a fan of comedy yesterday lol Your opinions have nothing to do with the original comment.
He seemed disappointed that he repeated his own joke like that. but one of the comments have a very good point about how you go see bands and they play the same songs.
The fact he's responsible for Stefon makes him the greatest ever. And I love that he changes lines to crack up Bill Hader.
I love watching this after hearing about oceans 8 haaa
