@nohabloemojislosiento4930 6 лет назад

Not just the vocal talent, but to NAIL everyone's physical mannerisms is so good. I love this guy's talent.

@nickv1212 3 года назад

Not just that, but they're each pretty funny. I don't know if they wrote the scripts beforehand or just gave him a list of celebrities doing these things and told him, go nuts. I hope it's the latter. I'm gonna say it's the latter.

@Majg1623 8 лет назад

Tommy's was on point, really fantastic work. People often don't realize how hard it is to change your voice and nail the little nuances in other people; they would rather just critique. Doesn't matter if every single impression is absolute, it's enjoyable to see the effort and of someone who is skilled.

@hoodyhoo1004 6 лет назад

It’s frightening how his face becomes the person he’s impersonating

@jimgraham5739 8 лет назад

Your Alan Rickman was genius, and I laughed so hard when you did Dustin Hoffman. A true genius, Jim

@brentcrude8565 2 года назад

It's impressive because Rickman is just saying "no" over and over, yet it's perfect.

Too bad he is a scientologist.

@AdrianWCarr 7 лет назад

No need to bring his beliefs into this.

@MikePhoenix007 6 лет назад

This. Was. Exemplary. Better than any other impressionist I've seen. Most of them have 2-3 that are dead accurate and 5-10 that are very close. But Jim has so many that are so uncannily accurate that it's freaky.

The Christopher Walken one was the closest spot on impression I've ever seen of him, wow

@uome20bukz Год назад

Listen to Nolan North’s Walken impression. Most accurate one. Look up Troy Baker and Nolan North reading Twas the Night Before Christmas, as Jeff Goldblum and Christopher Walken.

Woody Allen saying "I guess I'll use an ampersand...like Thomas Pynchon" is a hidden gem in this routine.

@funny-video-YouTube-channel 7 лет назад

Great actor, we need more people like this in our media. Unfortunately the top paid actors are only paid well, if their name became a recognizable brand and they can sell out the film in the first weeks of the release.

I mean, it's safe to say that these were really good but a few were actually unbelievable - in particular, Robin Williams, Robert De Niro and Tommy Lee Jones were incredible, not just vocally but the mannerisms were so accurate that his face almost seemed to transform into each of them!
