+She- Hulk I live in america and it was stupid to put Los Vagas in the middle of a dessert. but of course you never learned america isn't the smartest country.
She- Hulk Does my choice in religion bug you? You shouldn't judge a person by their beliefs. Saying that you might as well judge a person my the color of their skin. Seems to be the same logic you're showing.
She- Hulk Preferably. And yes there are some atheists that are dickheads. I just like it to be less judging by religion and believing in whatever you want. Sorry if i sounded dickish there.
To be fair you'd have to be British to understand the "tooth hurty" joke in the context Lee uses it here. It's such an old cliche'd joke, using it makes the joke on Stewart Lee, it has nothing to do with anyone's pronunciation. Stewart Lee saying "I don't even know where Taiwan is" is him being intentionally obtuse or ignorant, again the target of the humour is himself not Ang Lee, the Taiwanese director is just used as a comedy prop in this joke.
+RandomGamer Excuse me? If you don't care much about my comment, bug off, go away, I don't care much about you either. Also, I'm not talking, I'm typing... I can't really "shut-up". My comment was only because I saw nothing but NerdCubed comments. Like, some people were a bit more humble about it but others just spam *NerdCubed?*, *nerd3 brought me here*, etc. Not trying to be very rude even if that's what my original comment might've come off as... it just gets annoying what with 98% of the comments being about Dan. I was brought here by Dan as well but I don't just go parading his name all over. This is a Stewart Lee video, not a NerdCubed video.
If you ever watched Fist of Fun, you'd know why. He read out a letter where a woman complained about their parody of a parable and asked 'would you do a similar thing against another faith such as the Muslims' and his response was 'No. I may be an atheist, but I'm not stupid'
Wait he really did interview Ang Lee? From his autobiography (How I escaped...), there is further references to this routine. What isn't immediately clear, was that Stuart Lee was a comics aficionado, and totally obsessed with Hulk... and he really did interview Ang Lee! The comic book connection extends further, with Lee being used as a cameo in a Hulk comic (google issue 106). I like Lee's humour. It captures the energy and spirit of exploring and subverting 'what is meant to be funny' through razor sharp observations.
You and others are missing the joke here. The joke is on Stewart Lee, not Ang Lee. He's mocking himself for failing to tell a simple joke, and the humour is about how bad a joke it is. The point is that they get into a huge argument over a terrible joke (and which ends in another terrible joke). Also, the story probably never even happened in the first place.
@chris85april its an old joke that takes the mick out of eastern accents, 2:30 is supposed to sounds like someone eastern saying tooth hurty (the joke being its a dentist appointment) The real joke being he is now being racist...... you know there lots of videos of joe pasquale for you to watch
When does he say that believing in religion is wrong? And he respects opinions and when he expresses it in a video he will always clarify at the end by saying something along the lines of "but thats my opinion if you think it's bollocks then good for you". Please, can you reinforce your statement with evidence?
You do not feel the need to backup you point. You make very controversial statements and you will backlash against people saying "u r pathetic" but when a genuine question is asked you refuse to answer? At least try..
'Don't make me angry, you wouldn't like me when I'm angry' was from the 70s TV adaptation of the Incredible Hulk, not the Ang Lee film. Shame on Ang Lee for not correcting Stew on this most basic of error in this entirely real and not made up encounter between them. Joe Pasquale wouldn't have made this error. Nor Lee Mack.
joe hiscock Look, I'll give it to you straight, like a pear cider that's made from 100% pears: it's a reference to something Stewart himself says, precisely because fuckwits like you appear and don't get any of the references. I used it comedically but you came along and proved it true, good job.
jesus, just noticed ang lee has his dentist appointment at two-thirty (tooth hurty). Can't beleive he would slip that right by the audience, really a comedy genius. I know theres at least 2-3 more punch lines im missing here, like how Ang Lee's name relates to remembering a dentist appointment
Here's Stewart Lee analysing his audience. I think you'd be sitting near the top. The people down below got it. ruclips.net/video/V4Fi-iti338/видео.html
although to be more accurate the joke is not on stewart lee but on the joke itself. he makes a bad joke and then stretches it to the point of breaking.
@chris85april I know you've been given the actual meaning/reference, but I'd just add that Two thirty/tooth hurty is a pretty old, slightly racist joke over here. "What time do Chinese people go to the dentist?...Two thirty/tooth hurty" Of course, you dont hear it so much these days...It's health and safety legislation gone mad!;)
I have evidence of neither of these things, so am unable to comment further. Apart from thinking they are both unlikely, and also without the former being true, the latter couldn't be true either.
Of all the comedians in the world to claim wouldn't make jokes about people because of their religion, why pick Lee? About half an hour of one of his most well known shows is devoted to the concept of making jokes about Islam (and deconstructing the concept of "political correctness gone mad")
Stewart Lee - Stand Up Comedian. This is from about 2005 before the whole Jerry Springer controversy sparked up (he covers that in his next stand up show '90's comedian')
This humor is so dry that America is trying build a resort in the middle of it.
+Jake Lowell What the fuck does that mean?
She- Hulk Isn't Las Vegas placed in the most lifeless part of America?
Jake Lowell Well there are deserts in other parts of the world and funny enough I don't see you talking shit about them.
Last I checked America was the only country stupid enough to put the quote-unquote liveliest place in America in the most dead place in America.
+She- Hulk I live in america and it was stupid to put Los Vagas in the middle of a dessert. but of course you never learned america isn't the smartest country.
he looks so convincing, like he's still in the room making that terrible joke.
Six minutes build up for a two thirty/tooth hurty punchline. The master of stand up.
It's multilayered. Not just the punchline
Errr.... no... jesus I feel bad for you.
@@tinpot1978To be fair, you have to have a fairly high IQ to appreciate the comedy stylings of Stewart Lee.
No you don't lol. He's a midwit@@winstonmarlowe5254
Bernard Manning's stopped letting himself go as much.
This is the most brilliant bit, and his timing is perfect. So well done.
Why do people who just repeat what the person on the video has said always get the most thumbs up......it makes me very ang lee
hey man, what have you done in 9 years
Fuck all.
Thank you NerdCubed.

I didn't get it either

Tooth hurty. I'm in awe of Stewart Lee. Wow.

When you think Ang Lee is the punchline of the joke...
He's 10 times better live. If you ever get the chance to see him - go!
Is.. Is that.. Joe Pasquale..
hey man, what have you done in 9 years
Saw him do this at Glastonbury a few years ago. Never laughed so hard in my life.
Stewart lee.. best in the business if you ask me! noone today is doing what he does

Brilliant dead pan humour
This is so dry, I had to drink some water to stop myself from getting dehydrated.
Its a call back to the anti taiwanese reference earlier. Saying 2:30 in a taiwanese accent sounds like tooth hurty.
dan hardcaste is the best for sending us here =P

That took me a few watches to get. Tooth Hurty / 2: 30. Man thats clever.

He is very stewardly in this one!
He looked so serious when saying i love it
2:30 = Tooth Hurty
*long embarrassing pause* I'm sorry what did you say?
Hilarious. I was wondering where it was going, and then he brought the old China-man / Dentist joke in at the end.
For some reason I thought this whole Ang Lee thing was in an episode of Extras haha.
I bet the 'Tooth Hurty' dentist appointment time reference at the end went over 99 percent of viewers heads.
Eric 'Bruce' Bana's let himself go...
i think i remember watching this once on tele the first time it was on
Damn it Dan, don't send new people to Stewart, they're not welcome.

was checking comments for an explanation for that; it flew past me
It's a fairly common joke, and it didn't slip by the audience... just you.
By remembering his own pain, not his own name. Tooth hurty. Yeah?

Yeah, he had a embarrassing situation that he narrated making fun of himself and emphasizing the absurd of it, which is what comedy is about.
Absolute genius comedy, possibly the best joke ever written
I just can't watch this without laughing out loud. It's just impossible.

He stole that joke from the Nuts magazine. I seen that as the film was coming out.
I have evidence of neither of these things, so am unable to comment further. Apart from thinking they are both unlikely, and also without the former being true, the latter couldn't be true either.
There seem to be quite a few people who find the 2.30 joke to be the essence of his unique wit. Marvellous!

sorry dude, only just discovered Stewart Lee and a friend recommeded this clip... I have yet to learn the many more funny things he has said :)

It's all part of the act, plus it would half the amount of time spent writing.
why was the 2.30 time of the appointment funny? I don't get it.

He didn't miss appointment it was 2.40 !! 🤣
Oh look, Ang Lee's let himself go.
If you still don't get it then i guess it stays hidden for some.
Maybe because he doesn't want to make them Ang Lee.
