I'm digging the Silver fox Ben Stiller!
Colleteral Parody?
Good Will Hunting would have looked quite different had Ben directed it. Whatever happened, happened and it was for the best.
Ya it would have been drastically different definitely not a movie for a novice movie director
@Sherman ParkNope
@Sherman Park Stiller is better at directing comedy movies so I totally agree with you.
Stiller is a terrific director but Gus Van Sant is a masterful director
Obviously
He had the funniest parents!! His childhood must have been a hoot.
One of Robin Williams’ best roles. Dead Poets Society and Goodwill Hunting are two of my favorite films of his. RIP Robbin Williams.
One was best picture, one was best supporting actor. Both would not have been as memorable without Robin
Robin Williams also played Popeye :)
@@mikenacar And crushed it. LOL
Patch Adams also
I think Good Will Hunting would have won the Oscar for best original screenplay in MOST years, the script is that good.
very few movies have touched me the way GWH has, the scene where he keeps saying its not your fault over and over, I know its coming and it still gives me tears...powerful stuff
I love how while they're embracing, you can see Sean's (Robin Williams) eyes smiling from over Will's shoulder. They're saying, "I got you, you s.o.b., I got you to break." I tear up every time too.
It’s such a well done film from writing, casting, to acting. Robin will be remembered for a lot of things as he should be but in 100 years that performance will still captivate and give people chills.
Oh gosh i hadn’t seen Ben Stiller in the last few years and wow he’s looking older but still looks great
For the love of god Ben, give us a new classic comedy!
Ben's a pretty good director, done some interesting movies
I love Ben’s laugh.
Awe
Thank god Stiller turned it down, it’d probably not be nearly as good as it turned out.
Love the honesty
...it's not your fault
How 'bout them apples?
@@joemckim1183 I wonder if he had to see about a girl?
@@werby44 I wish I had a double burger.
*"Damn, kid stole my line."*
*RIP Robin Williams.* 💖
@@loveisamanybeautifulthing2c We can get together and eat a bunch of caramels.
Good Will Hunting is definitely a great movie, a well written character drama with great heart and awesome performances that deserved the accolades it got. But "one of the best movies ever made" is a huge stretch, Howard
it's not a stretch it's the truth.
I agree with it being one of the best movies ever made.
"I haven't watched it in a while" Hilarious.
Is Ben at Howard’s house?
Probably for the better that he didn't direct it.
Maybe he wouldn't have directed other classics after that, his career might've gone another route.
I love how he's one of those whose directing has evolved as he ages.
Yup
“Severance” is insane though. One of the best cliffhangers ever.
Definitely
He was funny as fxxk in happy Gilmore.
I wonder if the movie would have turned out if he directed it, or if it would have been as successful. 🤔
Ben Stiller always made me laugh.
There's Something About Mary is one of the greatest comedy films of all time...IMO.
He is slowly turning into Tom Cruise for real
I think he’s turning into Ted Danson.
@@silversun111 LMAO 🤣
The laugh!
Eddie Munster has turned into Grandpa Munster...the seed is strong.
No he’s turned into Matt le Blanc
I love Ben Stiller
I am hooked on severance.
Something similar happened to “Rocky.” Stallone wrote it and the studio didn’t want him to act in it.
OMG, Ben is a silverback now...
Stiller wasn’t established as a filmmaker yet. How was he offered the chance to direct Good Will Hunting?
Nepotism.
@Stranger_In_The_Alps You really believe that Jerry Stiller and Ann Meara had clout at the studios in the '90s, and could create a career for their son? You're a very silly-headed person.
He should direct a movie starring Sam Harris. I'd so watch that!
What jacket is Ben stiller wearing?
Lol Ben realizing he also just writes stuff he stars in
WHERE CNA WE FIND THE FULL
I think it all worked out for the best for everybody.
Rip robin Williams
GWH and Pulp Fiction tied for best movie of all time 💯
I'm betting Damon and Afleck don't regret Stiller turning it down.
Where is the studio at where Ben is sitting
The studio where Howard was at before the pandemic hit.
Prob L.A. Sirius building, where JD was last week
@@johnnytimestamp8224 Yep. Its in the Valley.
Thank god he turned it down.
Ben passing on Good Will Hunting reminds me of the story of Sylvester Stallone having difficulty getting a studio to do Rocky.
THANK GOD.
It is Zoolander!
Is Howard ever going back to studio ?
No. He is just taking the money and running now.
I want more severance
His voice changed.
where's Tropic Thunder 2?
"I cast my own friends" 😂😂😂
It’s so weird to see Ben acting so normal lol Only ever seen him Wacky lol
Probably for the best.. or we won't even be talking about it now
Someone tell stern, perms went out in the 80's
wow severance really should have come out 3 years ago
Ben would have changed the movie title to Good Will thundering
Joannie loves chachi
Tony Perkis!!!!
"I haven't watched it for awhile"... hahaha!!
Ha
“Mr. Gilmore”
Woww
goodwill hunting is far from one of the best movies ever made......faaaarrrrr
Tropic thunder 2, cmon ben

Don’t compare yourself to Gus, junior
Stiller most likely read the script and envisioned himself in the Will Hunting role. Had he got his meathooks on it, bombs away. He's good at comedy and playing the victim, period.
Ben aged
I thought it was Bon Jovi..
Bacardi and soda, DO IT
I wonder how he likes them 🍎 🍎 😅
No way a young stiller would have been able to make will hunting a good pic at that time .
Pure fluke. They've wrote nothing since.
As amazing as Good Will Hunting was, I believe Ben directed a film that was better. . . . The Secret Life of Walter Mitty, which in my humble opinion, is also a genuine masterpiece.
Because he's not nearly as talented.
His face looks wierd lol
☺
It's called aging
Goopic will thunting
Good Will Hunting was shit.
the ritual is complete. Ben Stiller is now Ted Danson
Is Ben at Howard’s house?
Maybe, but I think Howard is on a monitor and Ben is in the studio.
They can’t see howie. Hamptons hollyweird howie. It’s just audio. Notice how uncomfortable the guests look when filmed.
@@John-e4p1x Of course they can see him, they are looking at a huge 4k screen.
@@laurencewhite4809 Uh no they are not. Check out the Foo Fighters interview, OR THIS ONE ABOVE, or any of them. There is no eye contact, no shot of any "4k screen" and always a super weird vibe. Bevcause they are "on the phone" but "in a studio." (why not just Zoom from their house if hamptons howieweird stern is? - Im sure they are thinking).
