![Noob To Max With DRAGON REWORK In Blox Fruits [FULL MOVIE]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/LnBMOinoOvA/mqdefault.jpg)
I just re-watched "Footloose" (1984) last week and "Stir of Echoes" (1999) just last night. I love the fact that Kevin is from Philly!
We love Kevin Bacon, just a real down to earth and grounded gentleman. Behind the scene stories like this is pure gold. 🎥
I have a feeling Kevin Bacon has more than a few stories that would make his friends laugh at someone calling him a "grounded gentlemen." Could be, though. He's been with the same woman for years and doesn't seem to get into too much trouble.
Actually he's a typical Hollywood liberal.
I'm so happy when the-good-guys make it (Kevin, Rich Eisen).
If you've ever seen Sleepers, you look at him a little differently.
Anything that Kevin Bacon is in, is always golden! Whether as the lead or as a supporting player, you can always get a great performance out of him! 😎👍🎉🎊
KEVIN B is seems like such a genuine, real person. He is obviously, well spoken, great conversationalist, relaxed guy with none of that "movie star" crap!!
A Few Good Men is one of my favorite movies of all time. Apollo 13 is another great movie.
I am a big fan of anything Kevin does such of great down to earth actor.
My favorite actor. Never seen a bad performance. Seems like a good guy too. Him and Kurt Russell.
Agreed
And Ethan Hawke… all three give off that same chill, awesome, honest and earnest vibe
@@mqureshi79 yeah, agreed.
Love that you mentioned Kurt too.
Except for that one where he raped the boys. But he got it in the end, thankfully.
A movie star that could just sit down at the bar and have a beer with. Seems so laid back, props to him. Really enjoy Kevin Bacons work as an actor. Still laugh at the previous true or false where at weddings he would pay the DJ 20 dollars to not play footloose.
My friend did just that and he told me just as much. That Kevin is an awesome guy to crew, cast, and fans.
"THANK YOU SIR, MAY I HAVE ANOTHER!"
Now that's what you call a "Cult Classic!"
Saw the Bacon Brothers at the Minnesota State Fair. Wow, great concert!
These are fantastic! I've been binging on this whole channel!
Rich…love your channel!
Been a fan since your days at ESPN. Thanks for the great guests!
My favorite movie of his has to be tremors. Maybe cause my pops loved it so much. That opening scene where he misses the nail I don’t know how many times had pops rolling. My second is prob the air up there. He has many great roles. But I like him in those movies.
Speaking of Apollo 13, Gary Sinise is my favorite actor. I actually met him in person. He was so nice!❤️
_Okay? What are we to do with this information?_
Kevin is the best! He's so laid back and he doesn't let fame go to his head! This guy fucking rules!
What a great speaker. (Kevin)
at 3:57 Kevin concludes the best movie anecdote I've
ever heard (of about a million anecdotes I know of).
I love Kevin he is a wonderful actor
My favorite Kevin Bacon film as a Marine is Taking Chance. In my opinion far better than A Few Good Men. Not as exciting but it shows the respect given to fallen Marines.
Far better? That is not a good opinion.
@@drexlspivey3047 Then I guess it's not your favorite then.
I can't watch that film without tearing up - a common response, I'm sure. It's a remarkable movie IMO.
Kevin's never made a bad film.
Glad to see someone posted this already.
I was completely taken by surprise by both the film and Bacon's performance.
His subtle, emotional arc was masterful.
Hollow Man a underrated film, with Dr. Sebastian Caine, a criminally underrated villain. I will always enjoy the film. Kevin Bacon was great.
Better living through chemistry 😂
"Times it by a zillion and dip it in chocolaaaatee" that's all a bloody hear every day at work booming out of the speakers from the radio lol the most American sounding man walking the face of the earth lol and because I'm english living in England, the accent FASCINATES ME! Lol
Ron Howard was not even nominated for Best Director and he should have WON for Apollo 13!! No one had ever directed in zero-g before and he did it amazingly!
Three hugely veteran actors in those scenes, nothing against Howard, but how much did he actually have to direct them? I'd think the cinematographer would have the real challenge.
@@HandGrenadeDivision Veteran actors are directed all the time. Do you really think a veteran director doesn't actually direct a veteran actor? That's just nuts.
Lol
You were awesome in Taking Chance which I purchased.
Love Kevin Bacon in JFK such an amazing performance for such a minor role
Absolutely. He was scary. He helped build the nefarious component behind the "conspiracy."
The popular name for the plane and plane ride into zero gravity was called "The Vomit Comet". Heard about it decades on decades ago when it was a training tool for astronauts.
Kevin is one of those celebrities I would like to sit down and have a chat with..lol
Fascinating !
I have watched Taking Chance 4 or 5 times and, even as a guy, I have a box of tissues by my side.
Great film so underrated
Love Taking Chance, such an unknown and underrated film. Murder in the First is another.
You pleasure yourself to Taking Chance?
A Few Good Men is my favorite Ken Bacon acting and role ever. He plays the oddballs and squirrels and kinda off-kilter or menacing types very well, but Few Good Men was his role & acting of all.
I think his best is Sleepers
It's Kevin Bacon, not Ken.
Valentine in Tremors for me. I was a kid when I watched it so it holds a special place in my heart.
They don't call it the Vomit Comet for no reason (lol), and the "cocktails" sound like some Saturday nights back in the late 70s.
Taking Chance. Still makes me cry.
LOL 7:35 I can't believe how casual he was accepting the fact that he and his wife are related to each other (cousins). 😅
I guess that when you're already onboard and super-invested in the trip you better enjoy the ride, huh? 😂
Kevin Bacon and Kyra Sedgwick are so sickeningly sweet that it's like having a hyperactive panic attack made of Sucrose?!
I can't believe he made Footloose work he was so miscast but somehow still made it work. But my favourite Kevin Bacon movie was Murder in the First with Christian Slater.
If you've never seen it, which not many did, it's really hard to watch but so worth it. Ultimately it's a fish out of water buddy movie in the most harsh environment possible. And Kevin was so good he even managed to get Christian Slater to actually attempt to act for the duration of a Movie.
I saw "Murder in the First" a number of years ago. If I remember the Movie- he played agaisnt type- a [person wrongly convicted serving a long Prison sentence who If I remember the Movie is so Traumatized by being in Prison and being burtalized in Prison that he goes insane and kills somone/ Kevin Bacon is cast against type becfause he plays a very weak, damaged character. Crhistian Slater is his Defense Attorney if I remember the Movie.
I, personally liked him or really hated his character, but he did a good job playing an evil character in Wild Things where he played a Cop who at the end of the Movie- we learn is very corrupt and Evil.
Kevin can play anyone - the grimier the character? The more-spectacular the
performance!
I'm not so sure I agree with you that Kevin Bacon was miscast in "Footloose". I just re-watched the 2011 remake of "Footloose" starring Kenny Wormald. If Kevin Bacon was miscast, then Kenny Wormald was even more of a miscasting. Wormald delivered many of the same lines that Kevin Bacon did, and Wormald's performance was far worse, in my opinion.
Kevin is old school gentleman Celebrity, thank God there's someone left : )
4:15
Technically, Jack Swifert was Air Force, so not just Marines 😂
It's funny, in the interview he is recalling that he only ever played Marines in the movies, but I stumbled across WarGames, he's an Air Force Major, and in Apollo 13 he plays Jack Swigert, who was Air Force too. So many great roles, hard to keep track of them all! You're a lousy softball player Jack!.....Your boys are going down Danny!
Kevin was Army ROTC in his first role: Chip Diller, Omega pledge/member.
Kevin Bacon. Animal House. Dude's resume is a whole lot bettern' mine.
That NASA flight is called "The Vomit Comet" for a reason folks....
USMC! Kevin great job as a Marine.
Suddenly i want to see Kevin Bacon play an old Jedi.
What they actually found was that Kevin Bacon is related to everyone with at most a 6 generation separation. So we all can play 6 generations of Kevin Bacon.
I haven't met Kevin Bacon, but in 1979 I met a fellow freshman who's a first cousin of Kyra Sedgwick, whom Bacon married nine years later.
Would love to know how he felt about Kevin Pollak doing the part after Nichalson left.
Ron Howard said that he ran into Steven Spielberg later and Ron told him that he actually followed his suggestion and Spielberg does a double take and said 'I was just joking. You can't shoot a film like that.'
Ultimately, Ron Howard proved that you could.
Brothership.
"They're under the ground...UNDER...THE...GROUND!!!"
Jack Swigert was in the Air Force.
Ron Howard not getting a nomination for best Director or directing for Apollo 13 May still be in fact one of the greatest crimes of all time…
I think it should be pointed out Rod Stewart pursued a career as a professional Soccer player after being the captain of his high school soccer team. He actually got an apprenticeship at Brentford soccer club as a teenager but quit to pursue music.
Pro tip Kevin......dont tell people about the wife is a cousin thing lol
I mean, they’re cousins nine or ten times removed or something, it’d be hard to know something like that unless your really knowledgeable about your own genealogy from a young age… but I do get the point tho, not a good look to say it as most people aren’t going to get that.
Kevin Bacon as the next Sith Lord; Darth Bacon!
So for the zero gravity scenes, they were basically doing speedballs...
You can't tell me the success of Kevin Bacon isn't somehow tied to his name. You're not going out to see a Kevin Hot Dog movie.
I first saw Kevin Bacon as the doomed WASP Fenwick in Diner- he was so good and I'm not just saying that because I'm a Kev too. He's a good man married to a good woman- and it shouldn't matter to him that his father made cover of Time and he hasn't - yet. Having integrity in your work and relationships is the only legacy that means a damned thing.
Oh man... Kevin Bacon in a good Star Wars would have been great.
Kevin says he thinks Marines are the only military characters he's played, but he's forgetting the fact that his character in Apollo 13 (Jack Swigert) was Air Force.
He was probably thinking "in military uniform" characters, not just a branch the character happens to be part of like in Apollo 13.
@@Soldier4USA2005 also he played a JROTC candidate in Animal House “all is well remain calm”
@@mickfunny4185 Yes he did. :)
He also played Ensign Pulver (Navy) in a TV-filmed stage production of Mister Roberts.
@@1789publius Six Degrees Of Kevin Bacon, he was in everything 😂
It wasn't centrifugal force that made them float, the airplane was diving faster than if they were falling by themselves.
Call me weird but my favorite Bacon is Tremors.
Kevin bacon just admitted to doing coke in a free falling airplane. ✈️
He said speed, not coke. And the aircraft is not free falling, its in parabolic arc maneuver.
If you apply yourself just a little more, you could squeeze a 3rd falsehood in there.
Watch the final scene again. When Nicholson is at Cruise's desk yelling at him he is wearing a tie and when he turns around the tie is gone. Obviously, the edit crew missed that one.
"Marines have something very specific about them:" yes. It's called crayons. The crayon wax is why marines are like that.... lol😅😂😂😂 love ya guys, ftom: the army.
Really hope they can get him to be the next Freddy Krueger
9th cousins twice removed, which means one them is a grandchild of the other's 9th cousin. 9th cousins share one pair of great-great- great-great great-great great-great grandparents.
No wonder him and Kyra get along so well lol
He is so underrated.
Rob Reiner, director of ‘A Few Good Men’, tells that story the opposite way round… according to the director, Jack Nicholson opted for the off camera shots to be taken first so he could practice, when they pointed the camera at him he got it in the first take and it was no different to his ‘off-camera’ performance… why has Kevin Bacon remembered it so differently ❓🤷🏻♂️
Look up "Kevin Pollack on A Few Good Men"
True
Cool customer.
He was jrotc in animal house!
And Jack Swigert, from Apollo 13, was an Air Force pilot!
I'm here just for the Jack story
That’s crazy
6 degrees
Ready for another exciting movie?
I think everything is six degrees away from this man....
"Just Marines"
Um, wasn't he ROTC in Animal House?
Kevin Beacon is a legend as a human and actor 🤙
Apollo 13 🚀🪐💎
Tom Hanks said on an interview once that he thought Bacon smelled the best of anyone he ever worked with. Apparently he smelled of mouthwash and baby powder the whole time they were working on Apollo 13.
They call that NASA zero G plane the Vomit Comet
It's hard to not like this guy. Loved "Tremors" but my favorite is "Taking Chance".
7:25 Once you get to about 3rd or 4th cousins there's damned few reinforceable negative genes in common~ the soup is rather thin by that point. It would be about the same as having 8 grandparents who were not knowingly related in any way, but had all been born in the same village.
Hugely missed in Tremors 2
🤔 so we just glazed over the married to a cousin part.......noted
My 65 year old parents don't look like Kevin Bacon.
' you're a lousy softball player Jack!"
Casually drops he’s married to his cousin
He’s too damn cool
“The Vomit Comet”
Legal eight balls supplied by nasa. Whatta trip !!!
1st ? means they did anti gravity for 4h15m
Not a surprise that Mr. Speilberg knew the answer.
(Zero Gravity nr. Mexican border)
Kevin bacon does a Tom hanks bio pic
Kevin Bacon in 'Hollow Man' groping Rhona Mitra is hot AF. Well, she is, anyway. He's invisible.
Wow nearly 8 mins to answer 2 questions lol
Kevin bacon is amazing. Great guy
The Vomit Comet
“Centrifugal force and gravity balance” thats not whats happening 😂😂😂
Cocaine is a hell of drug..😂😂🤣
Do you miss Bill Paxton???
