Whenever someone talks about Salmon Fishing in the Yemen, I always remember listening to a podcast with a guy who worked on the film, and him being asked what Ewan McGregor was like to work with. He told a story of the cast and crew having to climb a steep hill to reach a shooting location, which resulted in Ewan slipping over, seeing a once in a life-time opportunity the guy ran to the top of the hill, turned to face McGregor, and shouted "It's over Ewan, I have the high ground."
Garrett Walsh it's not natural, each person has two voices, their normal voice, the voice since birth, that get's slightly deeper, and the roughness. background voice. People use the latter naturally when confronted in any situation, good or bad, lovely or hate, and the first when showing vulnerability, whether good, showing that the person is your friend, or bad, showing you're intimidated. Mcgregor's latter voice isn't htat deep, his voice is more of a sweet guy. Bond isn't a sweet guy, he's a man. Making him a sweet guy will lose the male fanbase and gain a couple hundred females...which is jack shit. Daniel Craig has the looks and the perfect below-mid range voice, not too deep. Then you do the workout to get the body and you got Bond. Taylor lautner barely pulled being an action star off in his shitty action movie but people viewed him then as a kid actor , since that was his first real movie after twilight. He wouldn't pull it off had he been 35 with a high-pitched voice. Ewan Mcgregor is a great romantic movie guy, possibly drama, just can't see him being an action star. Has the looks, the background, but he's just meant to be a nice dude, with some seirousness, not the lady-magnet bond :/
I read your comment before seeing the clip, thought, "buah, no he looks nothing like Roger Moore," then proceeded to watch the clip and think to myself, "my god, he looks like Roger Moore!"
Must've gotten some really high-end plastic surgery to regain his youth, ol' Roger. But it must have been hard undoing his previous one... the result in this movie is the miracle of science at its finest.
+TheDaklon I think he said "falling in love with Emily Blunt - which is also easy to do" and with that phrasing it's not suggesting anything; I think the audience just have a dirty mind hahaha or they misheard him lol
I thought it was a documentary too when they were showing it on a plane ride. I didnt pay attention till the end when i noticed ewan and i was like "why didnt i pay attention?!"
He was talking about the shiekh (however you spell it) and I heard "And I fall in love with 'em to be blunt" instead of Emily Blunt and I thought "Brokeback Fishin?"
PLEASE does anybody have his email or regular address. I need to tell him how much I have always loved him and how I still love him. Ewan, if you're reading this, you are fantastic. I have seen practically every film you've ever been in (a few of my favorites are "A Life Less Ordinary and "Big Fish") and have been affected by every single one. If you weren't happily married I would totally accept a marriage proposal.
@kingofengles I apologize I know what it looks like but I guess my happiness got the best of me so yeah I kinda deserve anyone bashing me for what I did... anyway thanks for your nice reply.
Seriously. He's unearthly handsome.
And he gets better the older he gets... 👍🏻 😏 🤗

No wonder Obi-Wan was my first childhood crush lmao dude is attractive all the way down to his accent
He was once a Jedi Master... but now he's a Fish Lord.
And a smack heid
Anyone think Mgregor could play bond?
he was up for consideration when brosnan was replaced. Personally would have preferred him over craig
voice is too high pitched
It's not THAT hard to talk a bit deeper then normal.

Nicholas Hale Possibly drama? Possibly? Have you seen any of Ewan Films? The majority of his best are all drama.
OMG I remember back then when dvd's didnt exist, I used to go to the mall and buy all his movies and I was 14. I love this man
DO IT! DO IT! DO IT!
Side car with Andy and Conan.
Every time i see Ewan i keep Picturing Obi-wan XD
1:15 relatable really.
good god, this makes me wanna read and watch the story all over again. nostalgic.
Aren't Jedi supposed to be celibate? Naughty Obi Wan...
watch young adam.....
or trainspotters
Jedi are not required to be celibate. Attachment is forbidden, Sex is not.

he has the coolest accent!
He always has the best stories, the best looks, the best accent, the best personality, should I go on?
If a swift "hello there" brought you here you are part of a secret cult called the Kenobis
i love his accent
2 of my favorite gingers, Conan and obi wan
Obi Wan Conanobi
Squirty Pebbles and me
Squirty Pebbles *Obi-Wan Kenobi
this guy is so cool!!
I have to re-watch this...I didn't hear a word he said...I got lost in his eyes...
the force is strong with this one
can someone give me ewans hair? damn.
He does have great hair
Imagine his bush
I LOVE THAT MOVIE SO MUCH!!!
gosh, I love Ewan
Hey guys, I am from Yemen, and we don’t have salmon fish.
i got a pretty good alternate name for this movie, having watched it: good looking white people fall in love.
Anyone suddenly remember Conan driving with his desk in front of a green screen?
The Ural bikes, my CCCP childhood dream... I think they have some dealership in the UK these days.
What's Obi Wan doing on Conan
+Raphael salmon fishing... duh? :)
+Captain Lobo They were short.
I loved the movie, great story
He looks so much like Roger Moore in this film ! The best of the Bonds !
I read your comment before seeing the clip, thought, "buah, no he looks nothing like Roger Moore," then proceeded to watch the clip and think to myself, "my god, he looks like Roger Moore!"

Actually, maybe you're right, maybe this IS roger Moore, and the Ewan McGregor thing is just a cover story !!!
Marty McFly *Scratches his chin.* Hmm... yes... you might be onto something there.
Such a lovely movie!
Just another Big Fish in a small pond
nice movie
The title of that movie reminds me of Crossing the River Kwai, Top Gear reference is anyone recalls
obie wan kanobi!!!
oBi wan kEnobi
He likes his fish movies. Big fish and Salmon fishing in the Yemen
@Mustadio i dont usually approve of the whole first thing but the hello internet really set it apart. good for you
*watches this video, hears McGregor talk about new movie, looks up movie and watches it after this video*
There's always a bigger fish..
Definitely watching that movie for more of his face and enticing accent. =) lol .
it is an amazing film you should totally see it
I could really see Ewan as a Bond... James Bond.
he sounds like simon pegg's scotty
I will watch ANYTHING he’s in. Although I haven’t seen Trainspotting.
Andy always appears in these clips like a fucking ghost! xD
Star Wars fans never poke fun at Obi-Wan Kenobi because he's not brave enough for politics
Damn you, John Krasinski!
emily blunt, whos easy to do.
Part of the audience gets it although i dont think it was intentional
+TheDaklon I think he said "falling in love with Emily Blunt - which is also easy to do" and with that phrasing it's not suggesting anything; I think the audience just have a dirty mind hahaha or they misheard him lol
+Clarestovold I was wondering why they were laughing at that part lol
Ah youre probably right ;D sorry :D
He's saying it's easy to fall in love with Emily Blunt, it's basic english.
OBI WAN KENOBI
@supremec Lawl, thnx friend.
I thought it was a documentary too when they were showing it on a plane ride. I didnt pay attention till the end when i noticed ewan and i was like "why didnt i pay attention?!"
Loool
Love this comment, hahahah
I would fish with Obi Wan. Maybe we would catch an Opee Sea Killer, Sando Aqua Monster or Colo Claw Fish
That clip is meant to be promotion??
AB how is it not promotion?
i love yemen
semo salim
He was talking about the shiekh (however you spell it) and I heard "And I fall in love with 'em to be blunt" instead of Emily Blunt and I thought "Brokeback Fishin?"
That film is named "Of love, dreams and fish" in our country. I mean WTH. Why couldn't it just be called Salmon Fishing in the Yemen ?
Next bond? Would be the first beautiful bond man!😏

Shit! Emily is f**king beautiful and VERY talented.
I was going to say Roger Moore.
I love Salmon
Haha shaven Ewan looks a bit like Pierce Brosnan.
@kingofengles I apologize I know what it looks like but I guess my happiness got the best of me so yeah I kinda deserve anyone bashing me for what I did... anyway thanks for your nice reply.

Ewan McGregor should definitely play James Bond. Not Daniel Craig
I'm Yemeni ^__^
yea im sure he sits around on UA-cam watching videos of people interview himself...
Peace and prosperity? More like peace freedom justice and security
@Mustadio
forever alone
an even funnier fact: yes we do. half of our internal political problems are because of them.
Not gonna lie I sorta man-crush when he talks.
رح لك يا ايوان
@Mustadio haai :)
What the fuck is "The Yemen"? You wouldn't say The Uganda, or The Switzerland, so why The Yemen... Makes no sense
Probably because they mean the river they're fishing in.
conan wants a mini dog set to shoot on and a little doggy seat with andy... I question his priorities...
Wait wait wait....what if, .... is he too old to ola Bond?
How are you? You're Special. digestion call
Ok I guess Obi-Wan is happy to be doing a political satire...
"Don't forget, she's a politician, and they're not to be trusted"
SO! Abdullah's dead? Or not? It probably would be wise for pearl fishers to take the back door at the Moulin.
@Mustadio congs
lol
lmfao
Yahoo! My first time being first commenting! HELLO INTERNET!
doesn't poke fun at politicians, rags on trump every ep
ughh he's so hot >.
I seeeeeeeeeeeee

😜😜😜😜Emily Blunt is easy to do.... according to Ewan................................................ sorry
Looks like the most boring film in the world.
Ewan drives a Ural? Eeeew.
