the pretzel bit at the start was because he was actually eating pretzels in the studio, and he said it like right at the start of recording that line, and it just fit so well that they kept it. edit: im refering to the start of the game, right after you leave liarsberg
Nah he was eating sun chips in the studio. Actors name is Dameon Clarke. That bit with the spoon was actually his audition for the role of Handsome Jack the writer decided to just keep it in bc it was funny.
Games been out for what? Ten years now? I've been playing it for every single one of them, and not once have I heard this audio, I don't doubt that it exits, its just a mark of good quality that you can still be finding new things a decade later.
This is my favorite dialogue with Jack. "I dunno, maybe you had to be there..." Makes me feel like he's telling a story to a friend or co-worker. Not his worst enemy.
😂Ikr, that's wat made me laugh so hard the 1st time i heard it. Bcuz i can relate to having a really funny story but when I'm telling it nobody laughs bcuz they weren't there
THIS is how you write dialogue. Never before has a minute of dialogue perfectly captured everything a villain is, was, and will forever be. The voice acting alone hits so many different ranges and carries an air of nuance not present in other villains. Jack is EASILY top 5 because of this.

I legit think that Dameon Clarke was laughing out-of-character near the end, and the voice director decided to keep it in because that laughter fit Handsome Jack so much.
Daemon Clarke deserves legend status for this scene alone. You can see every gesture Jack makes as he tells this story as if he was animated right in front of you. I can't think of a single other voice actor I could say the same of.
***** It evens out the choice at the end of the episode. You'll realize that both Fiona and Jack have scooped a man's eyes out with a spoon and suddenly Jack isn't such a bad option.
a spork is somehow a lot worse than a spoon in my opinion. now, what made Fiona WORSE was luke,,, keeping the eyeball. I just, yeah, that's weird. I mean it was useful but al the same time ridiculously weird.
The Vault Hunters fill the room with awkward silence until Claptrap suddenly begins laughing his ass off in the back where he’s the only one sitting alone
LionLostInTime Cue Consuela: nooo...no no no no. He may have started out good (if that even can apply to him) but there's flaws in that video. He proceeded to murder countless people afterwards. The Borderlands playable characters were never heroes, they were Protagonist. Jack however was a clear villain in BL 2 but seemed like he had good intentions in the Pre-Sequel.
+Rin Matsuoka I personally saw no joke. One word does not effectively describe or imply a joke. If they had said "I believe you mean hero," or made a reference to the obvious game theories episode, then it would have been funny. There's a reason there aren't many one worded jokes.
That delivery, that performance was phanomenal! I found myself laughing at a story about a man who got his eyes gauged out in front of his kids. Just think about that! They couldn't have cast anyone better
I was trying to explain handsome Jack as a villain to my mom because of how crazy balanced he is at being evil and funny. This was the one piece of dialogue I could think of that perfectly captured the kind of bad guy he is. When I heard him say this to me in game, I had to pause it because I broke down laughing as soon as he called me a bitch at the end haha.
Tyreen... Troy... i kinda like you guys as a bad guy but hear me. You guys just simply can't even begin to compete with Handsome Jack, his story and dialog are the best out there.
I just got a hilarious DnD idea someone casts vicious mockery and rolls for preformince and intimation and goes on with this video as the mini rant they used just leaving the bad guy so stunned they just pass out
I love this voice line, it plays when you’re with either going to flying sanctuary for the first time or leaving flying sanctuary for the first time I think. Anyways, the moral is you’re a total bitch.
Man I was playing telltales game of thrones and when I took out gryffs eye I could not stop laughing at the thought of him in a cellar running into shit
This is some really good shit, man. I been looking for stuff like this. Couple of small details, though: "Hero" don't take an E, and "laughing" doesn't take a T. Otherwise, freakin' awesome job, keep it going.
The voice actor must have legit been laughing while saying that. It's so perfect

@@spfirestarter8283 I loved that part
Heey, how's i- *god, these pretzels suck* How's your day been buddy?
I read somewhere that one of the writers hates Dameon Clarke for it because he made an ad lib popular instead of the actual script.
He's laughing because of how ridiculously brutally stupid it sounds, and he didn't think it was going to make it into the game. Sure enough...
my teacher is letting me do this for my character monologue in drama and ive never been happier
it went great!! i got a perfect grade :D I hope you do well too!!!
SAME! wish me luck tjis year
DUDE ME TOO! My teacher said swearing should be allowed in acting, so i'm allowed to yell BITCH!
You're lucky
Plz tell me somebody got that shit on video XD
AND HIS KIDS ARE ALL WAAAAAAAAH
Jack's impression of the kids whining is priceless. xD
Mad Rogers you know what's even funnier, the fact that this guy rushes him with a fucking spoon
IKR
Wæa
*W A A A H*
Mad Rogers gets me every timd
the best part about this whole story is that it's all true. some random npc in sanctuary will claim handsome jack scooped out his dad's eyeball
Omg after all this time i didnt know 😂

the courier same! xD
W A A A A A H H H H H H H
I lost it with his kids are all wwehh I was in tears laughing
Tried to laugh at this whole thing...
Ended up wheezing instead...
Worth it.
They managed to make a villain that everyone can love hahaha

I die laughing every single playthrough when I hear this. It never gets old.
best fucking Jack audiolog
Best story ever out of all of jacks story the dark comedy behind it cracks me up
Phillip wasn’t a audiolog just so you know
It's even funnier when you yourself say it. (Though that may be just me)
THIS is how you write dialogue. Never before has a minute of dialogue perfectly captured everything a villain is, was, and will forever be. The voice acting alone hits so many different ranges and carries an air of nuance not present in other villains. Jack is EASILY top 5 because of this.
And then he was replaced by villains that *WERE* as great as him if not MORE SO says gearbox...

Travis Willingham, Liam O'Brien, David Lodge to name but 3...
Can't be the only one who realised the eye part in tales from the borderlands episode 2 is a nod to one of jack's funniest lines :)

Let's not forget that in the end, a scooped out eye was what brought Jack's demise.
The calypsos never got close to this
True, but the Calypsos are still like.... 9/10 voice acting for a 6/10 script where handsome jack was 11/10 voice acting a 10/10 script.
@@paaperman borderlands 3 had a 2/10 script at best. I wasn't expecting Handsome Jack levels of character writing, but wow what we got was bad.
From the style of this video I’m imagining Handsome Jack on a stage with a mic telling this story and our vault hunters are in the audience
The Vault Hunters fill the room with awkward silence until Claptrap suddenly begins laughing his ass off in the back where he’s the only one sitting alone
The way he does the "WAAAAAAH" always gets me
Just finished BL2 last week. Jack´s such a great villain
Hero*

+LoneWolfGamer Because he or she has good humor?
'And his kids are all WEEEHHH!'
Yeah I can't stop laughing save me xD
Jack may be evil, say what you want, but he is just too fucking cool to hate.
I think this might be the ultimate clip for explaining who Handsome Jack is.
jack will always be the perfect villain and one of the main reasons of many that i can replay borderlands 2 time and time again
This insane level of charisma is one of the reasons why Handsome Jack will forever be the best villain in Borderlands' history.
He is great villain in every context. Three whole games to him, DLC in fourth and Timothy The Jack is just awesome as well.
Jack is the GOD DAMN HERO
How do you jump from a villain with this kind of dialogue to a pair of UA-cam mockups?
0:33 and these kids are all WAAAAAAH
The fact this is improved is .. just.. mwah
One of my top 5 favorite Jack lines. And that's saying something, considering who he is.
Never gets old. Love it love it love it!
Tyreen... Troy... i kinda like you guys as a bad guy but hear me. You guys just simply can't even begin to compete with Handsome Jack, his story and dialog are the best out there.

god these pretzels suck
the best character development since forever
A masterpiece. 10/10
Finally, I can listen to this story and share it with friends, plus the visual effects are great!
*And his kids are all WAAAA*
Man I wish we could have killrd him as the doppelganger himself
One of my favourite jack quotes well this and "wallet head"
Written by Handsome Jack, Published by Michael Bay. You heard me. MICHAEL BAY.
Its small things like this that propell Borderlands 2 into legendary territory
I remember listening to this when i was 9 years old and it's still funny. R.I.P handsome jack
I love the B1tch jumpscare at the end and the duality of Jack autocensoring Fvcking with Fricking but saying b1tch perfectly XD
And his kids were all *wAAAHH*
Theres a guy in sansctuary if you talk to him he hints that he is the son of the spoon dad
This is why I love Handsome Jack
Love this video. Laughed SO hard when I first heard this in the game
Played all BL including tales and this is by far my favorite segment.
My favorite story of all time
Handsome Jack is absolutely great
I just got a hilarious DnD idea someone casts vicious mockery and rolls for preformince and intimation and goes on with this video as the mini rant they used just leaving the bad guy so stunned they just pass out
If I get to choose to die, it’s gonna be jack blowing up my head or something
Literally my ringtone, never fails to put a smile on my face 🤣
I don't know who this guy is but I love him and I want to protect him he's too funny 😂
I really love the way he telly you the story.
This is why he's a good villain
the deadpan at the end always gets me
*And this is why Handsome Jack is a great villain*
I have watched this 10 times in a row
Every time I watch this i laugh,
I love this voice line, it plays when you’re with either going to flying sanctuary for the first time or leaving flying sanctuary for the first time I think. Anyways, the moral is you’re a total bitch.
I was actually laughing with him the first time he told me that
the moral of this video 00:46
0:26 ,,,laughting....best grammar
Huh..wonder how I actually didn't see that :\
privatechihuahua21 It happens ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
+privatechihuahua21 Perfect grammar is for egotistical eggheads with no life.
+Matt TheNerd Your resume better be an egotistical egghead with no life, if you ever want a life that is.
Okie dokie
The fact that this is actually funny is g l o r i o u s
Man I was playing telltales game of thrones and when I took out gryffs eye I could not stop laughing at the thought of him in a cellar running into shit
This is my favorite Jack line in the entire series. Followed behind by the stuff he says at RK5.
this is why i will never let jack go
Hands down my favorite villain of all time.
Holy shit, Dameon Clarke absolutely killed this performance!
love this guy. XD
yeah, that's new Haven for you
He can see where he's goin' he's bumpin' into stuff.
i spent 30 minutes laughing out of control after hearing this in-game
The best quote in the whole game.
"The moral is you're a total bitch" killed me in my first playthrough.
Has got to be the funniest story in any game love it.
First time I herd this story in game with my cousin I was on the ground laughing
This is some really good shit, man. I been looking for stuff like this. Couple of small details, though: "Hero" don't take an E, and "laughing" doesn't take a T. Otherwise, freakin' awesome job, keep it going.
Funniest thing he ever said
The dialog in this game is a priceless masterpiece.
If I ever die, this is how I’d like to go.
I loves me some Jack.
Before Jack finishes
"You found Overlook"
What makes the scariest villain, is when you realise, that they're right...
0:33 waaaa
i love this so much
this is an inside joke with me and my friends it's great
I can see most borderlands playable characters doing exactly this
This story is the epitome of jacks character
The teacher reading a for fun book: now what was the moral?
Me really annoyed of her: 0:45
Yeah...This is gonna end well...
If only Athena could tell stories like this!
This is hilarious, I love it
Best part of any playthrough.
0:45 when the English teacher asks what we can take away from the text
How is it he doesn't realize murdering a kid's father in front of them is so diabolical, and still acts like he's the hero?
Because he’s insane, and he sees them all as bandit scum who deserve it, so he has zero empathy for any of them.
Press 4 for a spoon.
This is why I love this game.
New favorite line, 2nd is krieg saying baptism of blood
Anthony Burch cries himself to sleep every night, because the absolute best writing in the game he wrote was ad libbed by some dude he cant stand.
Dameon Clarke improvised this and nothing can convince me otherwise.
Best
Moral
Ever
