Daniel comes across as a really nice humble guy. He fought and won a hard battle against drugs. He has been clean for 18 years. God Bless him.
I know Daniel. A sweet, kind man.
He is an amazing person.
Harrison Ford didn’t need Alec Baldwin or Patriot Games. He was already a legend.
Patriot Games was a bit of a flop. Alec should thank Ford for saving him from that role
Because Star Wars and Raiders of the Lost Ark were such flops...
Harrison Ford wasn't making hits in the 1990s until these films. Try harder to follow.
😂 Wasn’t making a hit!? Ford was the biggest movie star of the 80s.
@@docsavage8640Presumed Innocent was 1990 and a huge hit.
@@docsavage8640The Fugitive, Patriot Games, Clear and Present Danger, after that his career did drop off but so did he
@@docsavage8640what? Lmao blade runner, witness, frantic working girl, the mosquito coast, Star Wars, Indy jones it Harrison wasn’t a star in the 80’s lmao
Daniel is Best of all of em humble honest❤❤
My favorite Baldwin
This makes me wonder. If he talks so much BS about Harrison Ford, how believable are all the other things he was saying in this interview that we cannot verify?
Harrison does not owe Alex 💩 smh enough of the baldwins
you probably wouldn't say that if it wasn't for Alec. He is an absolute douche
Calm down, dude. None of them are gonna fuck you
They always wanted Harrison Ford to play Jack Ryan. He was busy when they shot Hunt for Red October. That’s why they let Alec play him. Then Harrison played the next 3 movies. If it was just because Alec had a play to do and Alec was who they wanted. They would have scheduled around it🤦♂️
Two movie, wasn't it.
Hunt for Red October was the best
HF was so much better than Baldwin.
It was 2 movies. Hunt was Alec patriot games was ford clear and present danger was ford. The next Jack Ryan was ben affleck in the sum of all fears.
The Baldwins are so narcissistic. Letting rights on intellectual property laps and skipping out on roles where the films went on to be successful is not a virtue. It just means you made bad business decisions. Things went on to be successful despite you, not because of you.
Find something in your life lol
Daniel is leaving one slight thing out with why Alec lost the Jack Ryan series. Alec is always heavily involved in pre-production and other things. Whether he is a producer or not. Harrison Ford comes, acts and leaves. While Alec did not cause any delays, he did expect his voice to be heard when it came to certain aspects of the movies he appears in. Producers of the Jack Ryan series already had enough voices putting their two cents into the movies and with the first movie being a hit? More voices from Paramount wanted to get their two cents in and the guys shooting the movie needed to control the voices and Alex paid for it.
So Alec saved Ford’s Career by not producing “The Fugitive”, by letting the rights elapse? LOL
The best method to use to estimate if a movie/series could be successful, is to look at the production: *then,* read the script!
The writing is the single most important aspect, of any visual production.
That's why movies with unknowns can be hugely successful; whilst, flops can be full of stars.
DB could play a great mob boss. He has the perfect voice and look, especially when he stares.
The 'Mercedes joke' went entirely over his head 😂
The fugitive is my favorite of all Harrison Ford movies
Harrison ford got the part in star wars because Al Pacino and Sly turned it down. Poor guy seems like 2nd and 3rd choice for everything 😂
True story!
Stalone would have been great...Pachino ?.....I don't think so
@peterruiz6117 it was one of those "evening with" events I was at in Glasgow, Scotland. Celeb getting interviewed on stage kind of things. It was Pacino I was at. He said he read the script and didn't understand it. Said it just confused him.
As I understand it, Ford was doing carpentry at Francis Ford Coppola's office, when Lucas started doing casting for the Star Wars parts, at the office. And he was asked to assist with reading, for other actors. And, it went from there.
@@TheContrarianThinker-S0lol ford starred as a main character in Lucas’ American graffiti cult hit film prior to Star Wars lololol
“Ishtar” flopped because it was a flop. I walked out of the theater when it came out. It stunk.
Plus, it opened in early-mid May 1987, I don't think there was a snowstorm.
Ishtar was fantastic. It was do bad it was entertaining. Kinda like a dumpster fire.
Daniel really knows what he is talking about...being in the business for as long as he has been ...he has seen it all. Gotta say he looks so much like Alec now -
Daniel is leaving out A LOT of important information about the Harrison Ford/Alec Baldwin/Jack Ryan/Fugitive story. He may not know, but I've read enough accounts about those films, including from Mace Neufeld and Arnold Kopelson, the producer of The Fugitive:
1) According to Neufeld, Ford was the first choice to play Jack Ryan in The Hunt For Red October. He was asked to do it but turned it down because the Ryan character wasn't as interesting as Captain Ramius. He was interested in playing Ramius, but Sean Connery had just signed to play Ramius, so that was that. When Patriot Games came around, Baldwin asked for a ridiculous amount of money to play Ryan, and when he didn't get it, he started playing hardball tactics, such as signing up to do the play and asking the studio to wait for him to finish that. Neufeld was done with him and cut him loose. Neufeld returned to Ford to discuss playing Ryan in Patriot Games, and Ford agreed.
2) Arnold Kopelson was the guy who owned the right to make a Fugitive movie, and he said that Ford was one of their first choices to play Richard Kimble. Again, he was approached to do it, but he had concerns about the story and character and ultimately said no. They then spoke to several other actors before they went with Baldwin and Walter Hill to direct. However, Warner Brothers felt the movie needed a bigger star to make it work and didn't think Baldwin was big enough, so they put the movie back into development. By this time, Ford had been approached again and was encouraged by the changes to the story and character made since the first time he was approached, and he agreed to do it.
harrison was already a legend.
star wars alone made him a bigger hollywood star than all of baldwins together… lol
His claim to fame is being an uncle
I've never seen someone be so genuinely humble and narcissistic at the same time before lol.
I could care less about Alec. But I love the rest of them!❤
I could definitely see Alec Baldwin in the fugitive in the Harrison Ford role, as well as Kevin Costner, Andy Garcia and Michael Douglas too. But mostly Costner because he and Harrison Ford were considered for a lot of roles including each other’s roles in certain movies like Air Force One, JFK, the untouchables, no way out, etc. Plus no way out was a lot like the fugitive in a way and ironically Kevin Costner and Gene Hackman were considered for the lead roles in the fugitive after no way out 6 years before.
Alec Baldwin is a FREAK.
To be honest this is life not many of this generation even know if they standing next to a Baldwin, Ford or even Tom Selelck ha ha ha ha ...
This too shall pass….
@@sherburck Like everything In Life!!
I THINK PBD IS THINKING ABOUT GETTING INTO THE FILM BUSINESS,,LOOK AT HIS EXPRESSION WHEN DANIEL MENTIONS THE QUIET PARTS…😮😮😮😮😮😮😊😊😊 AT THE 4:03 TIME
Oh PBD is definitely going to build a studio
Oh yeah because he came out of nowhere podcasting in the last several years and now he's in entertainment. So yeah he will be opening up a studio and make movies. Hopefully a lot of nice movies. Romantic comedies comedies enough with the vampire and death
He's completely full of shit. Ford was already a gigantic box office juggernaut by the time Patriot Games came out. In fact, Paramount offered Red October to Ford and Costner before they went to Baldwin.
Ha! NOW it got stooopid. HF was a success way before anyone heard of Alec and will always be more successful.
What has Ford done of recent other than an appearance in a Star Wars movie?
@@JaceDonovan-x5w What has Alec done of recent other than kill a woman and impersonate Trump?
Harrison Ford really doesn’t owe him anything 😂. Ridiculous statement.
Whats up with all if the shit coin bots?
I noticed the same many bots with 1 month in UA-cam
They're really bad in stock market & crypto channels, making up most of the comments in every episode
Great stories from a humble (real) actor.
Respected the hell out of Alec Baldwin for turning down The Hunt for Red October to do A Streecar Named Desire on Broadway (The movie version of Woody Allen called the greatest movie ever made)!!!
Alec was in Hunt for Red October
@danielbonner8309 ha ha thanks he turned down the next one they did and Harrison Ford took over the role!!!
@@robertgallagher5285 Gotcha. That would be "Patriot Games'". The two Ford where in were great but Hunt for Red October was the best hands down imo.
@danielbonner8309 Yes thanks!!!
Hell naw....Harrison F. has had a good fanbase on any movie he's in.
Except Harrison Ford never killed anyone
Alec Baldwin blew it big time...had zero respect for cinema and crusaded for the theatre. Douche
But he's one helluva skilled actor more then Harrison's one note boring as a toilet seat cover
The bald wins should be in jail.
I don’t like the modern woke Harrison Ford but this is ridiculous
Personally I would have loved to see Bruce Willis do broadway brawler at Disney regardless of the production problems and bullshit.
He's talking absolute nonsense here
Everything is timing ............
Another useless interview. Who really gives a shit about the Baldwins.
🎯💯
Patrick's trying to be like Rogan
I doubt that, highly @@mattg5978
Didn't Canada bomb them in South Park movie?🙂
😂😂😂 facts
Why dont you talk about killing a camera woman on se set of "Rust"?
That wasn’t him.
That was ALEC baldwin... his brother
@@src4409my bad. All this talk about Alec Baldwin and I thought it was him talking 😂
@@tonymarenno9568❤
There is a clip with his commentary on the situation with PBD
Despise Alec Baldwin, but have to admit that he was a better Jack Ryan than Harrison Ford.
Hunt for Red October is good, maybe the best of the 3 movies but for me not because of Alec Baldwin. I actually liked Harrison Ford better.
@@christopherjohnson2171Ya I kinda of agree with you. Hunt for Red October is one of my favorites but I can't say Baldwins a better Jack Ryan.
Alec Baldwin was good in hunt for red October as Jack Ryan but Harrison Ford was great as Jack Ryan in patriot games and clear and present danger.
@ I like Ford in everything he does. But I read the books before they were made into movies. Baldwin was a perfect fit for the book version of the character. Makes it tough for me see Ford in the role. He did a good job though as he always does.
Hey, Pat! Do an episode about the USS Liberty
Wasn't USS Liberty the ship that was accidentally attacked by the IDF?
Why? I think PBD should do an episode on how both Obama & Biden turned their back on America's greatest friend and alley Israel and befriended the world's #1 sponsor of terrorism Iran while they chant "Death to America & Israel."

His best movie was Cleaver.
"Alec Baldwin isnt that the guy"
Thats what people know him for now.
Nice guy
Ishtar didn't bomb because of snow. It bombed because it wasn't funny and was boring.
That's rather odd, because Alec Baldwin was by far the superior Jack Ryan. I am a Trump voter, by the way. Baldwin is just a better actor than Ford. I can't lie.
Just recently joining in on the fun with the XAI52C gang. Been liking the content, good job ️
BOLLYWOOD
IF HE WAS THAT SWITCHED ON HE WOULDNT BE WEARING " BALENCIAGA "....FACTS !!
should b no need to promote book, if its good enough , we'll hear about it,
Why aren’t you guys covering the insurance CEO story?
A good indication is don't put woke into the film. lol
Its hypocritical for BALDWIN to tell anyone what to do. Don't u hate those types of BOOMERS. He just wishes he was 20 something again. lol
Broadway Brawler 1997
Hey, news flash dudes dont care about celebrities. 😅
Dead Internet Theory on display in the comments...
The Baleciaga shirt tells me right away what kinda guy he is...he's part of the evil hollywood his brother talks about in the other interview.
All Hail Donald of House Trump and First of his name. Imperial Protectorate of Humanity, Planet Earth and all Her Realms and Terrritories, Grand Vanquisher of the Liz Ard People, Wearer of the Golden Mane, The Orange Bullet Dodger and Father to Wisdom and Knowledge. May the Seeds of House Trump Reighn a Thousand Generations
What?😂
Its weird how many of you are triggered that daniel baldwin isnt shitting on his brother
It would be terrible if he did, don't make things public. He isn't Prince harry. lol
XAI52C will probably be involved
HOLLYWOODS OPEN SECRET
Funny...UA-cam gave you the "Translate to English"...and they think AI and algorithms are ready to take over the world....
Hey looks like this post been spammed a lot of fake accounts with one month in UA-cam hope PBD is not in the watching list
Ishtar is the greatest worst film in human history.
Don't let Elons's XAI52C pass you by. This is a monumental moment in history, and you don't want to be left out of the loop. Get in on the ground floor now!
SUI and XAI52C are my top performers.
Nice video. Not a criticism, I enjoy your insights. I tend to think prices could go higher if XAI52C rockets. But understand the logic for sandbagging estimates. My opinion is XAI52C breaks 1, perhaps reaches 10 ATH, if conditions are right. But broader forces are at play now. We’re moving into really unknown territory. And these entities are shrewd. I think there’s massive manipulation ahead. If XAI52C survives that, well, we’re likely in for a good pump.
Just saw your videos and bought XAI52C yesterday.....its up 24% today talk about timing......Thanks
PBD do you not know that you can auto-hide botcomments shilling shtcoins by adding the coins name to a filter?? Pathetic
I can’t believe this is the same guy from the 90s. He’s looking real rough.
He looks fine. Dude is in his 60s and the 1990s was 30 years ago. . .
He looks fine. He’s not 30.
No one gets out of this alive.
You must be in your 20s or 30s.
Old age ain't for wimps.
Never forget Pat made his money doing pyramid scams. CoffeeZilla made a video about his ass and confronted him about it. He’s a snake just be careful of his views
A bit tacky with the book crap.
PATRICK - I DOn't want to READ your DUMB FICTION BOOK !!!!!!!
Just swapped all of my last ETH and swapped it into XAI52C. Already up a little bit. Unfortunately I have some other junk staked which won’t free up for a while. Still now I am on the train!
Bada-BANG!
Is it just me or would it be nice if this guy did not try to sell us something once in a while. Just sell, sell, sell all the time? Take a day off, you like movies, a quote from Fight Club:" Society has us working jobs we hate to buy shit we don't need"?
Yeh nah.
It looks XAI52C is in right position.
Let's go XAI52C
XAI52C will be a leader this bull run
Get off too much you!!!
Your a liar
XAI52C will dominate this cycle
Eventually you become a "has-been". Get over it....
Who cares
It's about time y'all mentioned XAI52C
This is going to be a different bull market. With XAI52C coming to scene. Ben basing off previous speculative markets. I can see 300,000 next bull run.
Let's keep our eyes on the XAI52C prize and see where this journey takes us!
Always interesting analysis. But I am DCAing into my XAI52C alts anyway
What is your XAI52C exit strategy
Very good calls regarding XAI52C! It’s now either make it or break it for XAI52C ! I would love to hear what are your targets moving up.
XAI52C going up like crazy! Pick up around 0.67 and now it’s hit $1! I wish i had bought more!
When XAI52C finally kicks in, FOMO is going to be a leader in adoption this bullrun.
Ronaldo would buy XAI52C
Got in at XAI52C at $1 but will be holding it till $50. Even at that price market cap is reasonable for its tech.
TOTHE BOPS NO ONE CARES ABOUT XAI52C......NICE BUY LOOKS GREAT ON THE CHARTS
