Such a gentleman and class act. Many young actors could learn a thing or two about manners for this great man. When I met him it was like meeting a friend.
Bless this man, a kind and thoughtful individual with a true mastery of acting. Kept giving interviews too through Covid, right up until his passing. The world will be a worse place without him.
I met David Warner in 2001 when he returned to the stage in the play Major Barbara on Broadway. He hadn't done a play since the late 60's, so it was brave of him to come back to the theatre. He was magnificent in the play. I met him at the stage door twice and he was so sweet, gracious, humble, down to earth and gentlemanly. One of the thrills of my life.
PS: Talking about "before you were born" ... he's been one of my favorite actors since I saw him on the big screen in Time After Time in 1979. I know it's outdated, but it's still one of my favorite movies, and it's mostly because of him. I can't imagine a remake, and I'd have no interest in watching it. Unless he were in it, of course! ;)
David Warner would be amazing as a detective in a murder mystery movie!!! Hope there's a director out there who sees this interview! One of my all time favorite actors and a real gentleman. I had the pleasure of meeting him a few yrs ago
RIP David Warner - One of the most underrated actors of all time! The youngest ever Hamlet and a class act villain on film. Such a humble guy, probably never realised how brilliant he actually was! I watch massive films like Titanic for example and look forward to his scenes! A Legend!
+queenflash2012 I agree! (I think Alberto was being ironic perhaps? ;) ) Hey, at least he knows how to use Google now! Unlike his Time Bandits character, he used to hate computers. Hmm, maybe that's why. ;)
+queenflash2012 Haha, or Sark. (What they were saying about computers in that movie actually WAS gobbledygook! And funny that he managed to see it in 1978 when it didn't come out till 1982. The only thing about it that kept me awake was David Warner having THREE roles in it. I suppose his playing a villain in that was another reason he's afraid of computers! Hmm, I get the impression if he ever wrote a memoir, he'd call it "I'm Not Sark." ;) )

Hmm, very interesting interview. I really wish he'd write his memoirs ... except I saw on some spurious website that he said he wouldn't want to write a book just because he wouldn't want to have to do a book tour. I don't know why that would require a book tour. Does he know he can self-publish (print or e-book on demand) for free and do NO publicity whatsoever? Also ... he's always been far too modest; I know he doesn't care about what billing he gets if any, but I'll watch a movie/TV show/whatever he's in just because he's in it, so I wish he WOULD get higher billiing! Anyway, thanks for getting him to do this interview & also for the website, now that he's finally accepted having one. It's sad that he's had fansites in the past (which he knew about) but never gave any acknowledgement to or even replied to letters from the people who ran them. It seemed that he replied to everyone BUT people who made websites about him (who were very hurt by it), so you really lucked out, Stuart!
Google needs to immortalize his voice as one of Google's translator voices. Or some program to record every word of it, so we can have a Jon Irenicus for some experiments. 😂
David Warner in Tron: "Make a nice break from those accounting cream puffs you keep sending me!" David Warner in A Christmas Carol: Plays an accountant.
Bobsheaux once brought up how Warner was meant to voice Shockwave, during the Transformers:Dark of The Moon film. Now, had Shockwave been exactly like his G1-Self and stuck to being the scientist, then yes, Warner could've easily played the part.
David... You cannot be caged... You cannot be controlled.
Understand this, ye ever pathetic, ever fools !!
:-)
You made yourself!!! You cannot be un-made!!!

Jon Irenicus himself
And i think he is back in ''siege of dragonspear''.. which, to me, was fantastic.
Bless this man, a kind and thoughtful individual with a true mastery of acting. Kept giving interviews too through Covid, right up until his passing.
The world will be a worse place without him.
He's such a sweet, modest, gracious, classy man and a huge talent. That beautiful voice.

David, it is time for more experiments...

Irenicus! How I wish you'd just say 'Ah! The child of Bhaal has awoken.'
"Benson, dear Benson. You are so mercifully free from the ravages of intelligence." - Evil, Time Bandits
"You are but a gnat, compared to my power"
Legend!!!
I love when he played the role as Professor Scienest Jordon Perry in Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2.
Charming!
Awesome interview !
I like him he is a great actor.
WOW James Sawyer!
I wished he had social media so I can tell him my thanks
+queenflash2012 You mean to tell me he doesn't use social media?
+Alberto Silva well I wasn't telling you I was just commenting on this vid
+queenflash2012 I agree! (I think Alberto was being ironic perhaps? ;) ) Hey, at least he knows how to use Google now! Unlike his Time Bandits character, he used to hate computers. Hmm, maybe that's why. ;)

god I cant stop thinking of Irenicus. Its branded in my mind
He is a bstion of brilliance and is an enigma do not diminish his stature

RIP David Warner
He also voiced Arch-mage in the animated 90 series Gargoyles

Who was the genius who thought to use his voice for Jon Irenicus? David has the best intelligent villain voice EVER hands down!
Ahh! Ra's Al Ghul !!!
"It is time for more...experiments"
He's right up there with Ian Bannen.

It's Gul Madred! RUN!
Ras al ghul !!
David Warner is my favorite actor. Great interview.
Ahhh this is Irenicus
Best Ra's al Ghul ever!
I think W. D. Gaster would sound like this.
Hello there detective
Don't ever end up in this man's custody
He'll torture you without remorse.
Or he will send you to the game grid to be blown away.
@@michaelnewton1332 I'm referring to his character on "TNG" bro
Rapture of the father
Ra’s al Ghul
you are but gnat compared to my power
