I love how Jeff Goldblum turns an interview all about himself and his career into him just praising and complimenting everyone he's ever worked with and barely focusing on himself at all. Jeff Goldblum is a national treasure.
@@lamalama9717 I would love that, on the other hand, it may be too much of wonderful eccentricity, better to have them doing one movie each = TWO wonderful movie moments for us 😁😁
I absolutely love that we now basically have confirmation that the character concept for the Grandmaster in Thor Ragnarok was just "Jeff Goldblum in Space"
I think at this point in his career and life…… you’re gonna want/get just “Jeff Goldblum at the Gym” or “Jeff at the zoo” whether one wants it on not lol
The thing that amazes me is how he remembers everyones name. Regardless of the production or department, I get the sense that he genuinely respects and cares about the people that he works with, no matter how long it's been. I could watch this all day.
Well, and I know I'm not supposed to say this, but most of the people he mentioned are fellow Chosen People and they're not very shy about their banding together.
@@Khazandar robin williams an enfp Goldblum is entp Both extroverted intuitive dominant types, that is why they think faster than their mouth can catch up
@@extrm161 La componente stilistica è sicuramente di grande importanza per i cantanti, ancor più per un genere che necessita di forti identità e grande capacità di condivisione dei messaggi.
He's that one guy that you can't even ask how he's doing without him jumping into a 1 hour monologue about some weird adventure he went on :D I love it, it's a special kind of charming.
His intro on the Conan O'Brien Needs a Friend pod cast is my favorite. The guest is supposed to use one word to fill in a sentence about how they feel to be Conan's friend. Jeff Goldblum goes stream of consciousness for a full minute, questioning the nature of friendship and probably reality in the process. Dude's a treasure.
I don't think authentic is the right word, it's more like: most other people are boring normal humans that use acting to become someone special, while JG just IS special and a natural entertainer, and probably has to use acting skills to appear normal to the world
It's crazy to realize his characters are actually toned waaaay down compared to his actual self. Which is usually the opposite for most actors. It makes perfect sense Taika Waititi saw it and just decided to bring that out and embrace it instead of trying to write a character for him, because he's already quite the character himself. What I wouldn't give to just get to sit down and have a conversation with this man. About literally anything.
He seems like a wonderful man, as in he’s literally full of wonder about everything around him. I get the impression that if you ever met him, he’d be far more interested in your life than you would be about his.
That's such a spot on observation. He has this aura of great enthusiasm and wonder that just transfers to you as you're watching him. Truly a treasure.
I have a strong feeling that there's 2 more hours of him covering his roles that you'll stroll out in months 30 minutes at a time. I wanna see him talk about VIBES!
I love that during the period between 1993 and 1997 you couldn't have a hit movie without Jeff Goldblum in it. He's so endearingly eccentric it's a true pleasure just listening to him talk about, well, anything really.
I have to admit that as a kid I couldn't really stand Jeff Goldblum but as I got older I learned to appreciate him and now I'm actually excited everytime I see him casted in a movie I'm about to watch. And like other comments have already said, he's just so lovable weird and eccentric. Just seems like a genuine nice person that would be fun to hang with.
He's one of the best actors of all time in my opinion, the charisma and eccentricity he brings to his roles is otherworldy and amazing especially in The Fly!
I love that this video is supposed to be about Jeff, but he cant help talking passionately and kindly about others. He is a treat! I would loved to hear about Jeff working with Donald Sutherland in the '78 Invasion of the Body Snatchers!
The Fly is probably one of my top five male performances in film. The sheer depth and emotional intensity that Jeff Goldblum brings to the character of Seth Brundle is AMAZING! I re-watch this film every couple of years strictly for the wonderful performances. The entire film is carried off by three superb actors, each of whom display a wonderful interplay of emotions. Any student of performing arts should see it!
@@lbabytutorials4852 Indeed, it was clearly not an easy role for Jeff Goldblum. The makeup sessions alone looked exhausting! The transformation, not just in body but in mind, draws you into the Seth Brundle character. Gina Davis, also gives a wonderful performance. The way she emotes in the final scene was SO heartbreaking.
When he played Dr. Seth Brundle in the Fly, that wasn't just him playing a character, that character was actually patterned after him. He really is that damned brilliant.
Jeff Goldblum is like Jonathan Winters, Mel Brooks and Robin Williams in that, no matter how bland or commonplace the subject, they make a grand show of any conversation. You can see their brains running off into different directions. You never know where they are going to take you, but the trip is going to be breathtaking.
I remember seeing The Fly in the theater in early high school. For a major 80's movie, it was absolutely shocking, what with its (typical Cronenberg) body horror. It truly felt like it deserved something *beyond* an R rating. A huge 80's movie...and I don't think audiences knew what hit 'em!
Yeah, he's sorta like The Duke. No matter the character he's playing, it's Jeff Goldblum! If I saw a movie today with him in it where he wasn't Jeff Goldblum, I'd be shocked, lol.
I've always loved Jeff Goldblum throughout his career, but I absolutely loved how much fun he had playing the Grandmaster in Thor: Ragnarok. NOBODY does it like Jeff! When it comes to dialogue, he has one of the most iconic deliveries in modern cinema, right up there with Walken. I could listen to Jeff tell stories all day!
As a person with a similarly over-active stomach, I always get a kick out of the subtle battle Jeff seems to have with his own during interviews. It's as if it's trying to express its appreciation for an outrageously delicious sandwich he's downed mere moments before the cameras roll, and Jeff just rolls happily along, seemingly indifferent to whether the joyous burps get out or not. Could watch these all day.
Hooray! Another I've been waiting for. Jeff is one of my favourite actors and I was so pleased to have the chance to meet him at his wonderful Jazz shows in LA. ❤
I could listen to Jeff all day, so much knowledge so much detail. It makes me proud to be a New Zealander listen to him and other actors/directors talk about Taika
I would like to hear about The Big Chill, Silverado, Vibes, and The Tall Guy, but everything he does is amazing! Jeff Goldblum is amazing. I knew it when I first saw him in Tenspeed and Brown Shoe!!!
I want to hear a conversation between Jeff, Christopher Walken, and Norm Macdonald (RIP) - it'd be such a fun thing to listen to, just for the melodic phrases in the way they talk, nevermind the crazy run ons and tangents that they go on. The 3 of them are very similar in that way.
I’ve always felt like Jeff Goldblum has been underused in Hollywood, but I’m so glad he’s remained relevant. Even in some frankly ridiculous movies like Earth Girls Are Easy and Transylvania 6-5000, his presence made them fun and watchable. Also, it’s my opinion that The Fly is one of the most underappreciated movies in history.
My first thought when I see a new Jeff Goldblum video is “ho ho ho, merry Christmas to ME!” 😂 I love his whole spirit and the way he speaks is so magnetic
JP made my childhood so amazing and he will always be Ian Malcolm to me. In that movie he taught me while things can appear calm and joyful on the outside, absolute disaster is the smallest margins away.
Jeff Goldblum Show 1. MacArthur Parker - The Simpsons 1996 Movies 2. Ian Malcolm - Jurassic Park 1, Jurassic World 2 Fallen Kingdom, 3 Dominion 1993 - 2018 - 2022 3. David Levinson - Independence Day 1, 2 Resurgence 1996 - 2016 4. Professor Brody - Cats & Dogs 2001 Game 5. Nero - Call of Duty Black Ops 3 Black Ops 2015
Covers the absolute best known works but there are so many really good films not even mentioned. Films like The Big Chill, The Right Stuff, The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai ( it get a brief mention), Into the Night, Silverado, Deep Cover, and many, many, many more.
Great teacher also. See if you can find a list of famous actors who trained at Playhouse West, that's his school. Or at least he's a co-founder, he started PW with Robert Carnegie and then when Jeff got famous Mr Carnegie took over running the school.
When people ask, "Who would I want to talk to for a while, Jeff is my quick answer. He is so intelligent, clever, witty, you name it, that's him. My Perfect Man 🥰😍
