“Matt Damon once told me Cillian Murphy is the worst dinner companion imaginable”.
Jimmy Kimmel recounts a past interview of Cillian Murphy where the host told him Matt Damon said to him sometime back that “Cillian is the worst diner companion imaginable”…… his reaction at the end is pure gold. 😅
Jackie Chan says that back in the day there was less budget for CGI, so every jump, every fall, and every fight scene came with real consequences.
Steve Harvey: “Your body has gone through a lot over the years, man. Is there anything that you haven’t broken? We got a chart; we made this up. You’ve broken everything on you.”
Jackie Chan: “Uh, not that—most people… ‘Oh Jackie, you’re breaking every bone in your body.’ And not every bone, but I can say every inch from the hat to my toes. Scratch, blue, yes—but bone, little bit. Like, I have a hole in my head, a little bit.”
Steve Harvey: “That’s a hole? Put your finger…”
Jackie Chan: “Oh, hell no. Uh, have a hole, a cut, cut, broken, this gone, jaw, cheek broken, broken, broken, crack, crack, crack, crack, crack, broken, broken, broken, ankle almost… just not everything broken, but close.”

“There was a lot of opposition ”
Joe Rogan and Mel Gibson discuss the resistance the Passion of Christ received during its production.
Joe Rogan: That was a crazy movie because... it was a great movie, but it seemed like there was resistance to that movie.
Mel Gibson: Oh yeah
Joe Rogan:there was, which I thought was very strange. There was like Hollywood resistance to that movie; like people didn't like that you were making it, it seemed like.
Mel Gibson: Yeah, there was a lot of opposition to it, and I don't know, it's... I think if you ever hit on that subject matter, you're going to get people going, because of course it's big subject matter. And it's like... and my contention is, you know, when I was making it, it was like you're making this film and the idea was that we're all responsible for this, that his sacrifice was for all mankind and that for all our ills and all the things in our fallen nature, it was aid, redemption.

Adam Sandler says his late father, Stanley Sandler, always had his back when getting into show business.
Sandler: "My dad used to say to me when I was young and you know when I was in college I'd say you know, I'm going to do this and that he'd be like yeah you can do that and if you don't you'll come work with me."
"You know he was an electrical contractor and I'd say I don't know how to do that he'd go I'll teach you but he'd say you when you get to maybe 23, 24 if it's not working out you'll come work for me."
"So I had like this fall back work for Dad thing if this doesn't work out, but honestly I would just say to him no no I'm going to be fine I'm going to make it I'm going to do good he'd be like all right he'd look at me like I was a little nuts."
"My mother on the other hand was just like oh he's going to be wonderful because she thought I was every move I made was great."
Tracy Smith: "Who was harder to make laugh your dad or your mom?"
Sandler: "Mom's very easy to make laugh but then would right after say I didn't understand that so she'd give me a fake laugh like she knew I was trying to be funny and she would laugh and then she would say say it again and then my father man when he laughed boy you were excited you were excited that the big man was good and thought it was funny because he was a smart guy and he always he always you know certain comedians made him laugh."
Sandler: "I used to love any comedian my father and mother liked I would be like oh he's my favorite Buddy Hackett and you know Cosby and boy there was so many people that my parents when they would watch him on Johnny Carson I'd be like oh God I want to be like that guy he's making my dad happy."
Jennifer Lawrence says the internet accidentally proved her point after rushing to defend her for calling herself ‘annoying’.
The sweet internet…rushed to my support and was like, You’re not annoying! We never thought you were annoying!!!
But that is annoying!!!
They weaponized my experience to make everybody stick up for me.
I am annoying, and I am okay with that.
"Everyone thinks launch is the hardest part... the astronauts say re-entry is even crazier."
Jimmy Fallon: “I’m sure you had so many emotions during this mission. I was going to ask you, when were you the most nervous? Was it takeoff? Was it landing?”
Reid Wiseman: “About 30 seconds ago.”
Jimmy Fallon: “Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Could be that as well.”
Christina Koch: “Launch, people think of launch because they see the rocket, but for us re-entry is way wilder of a ride.”
Jimmy Fallon: “Really?”
Christina Koch: “Coming back to a planet is no joke. You might think, ‘Let’s land the plane.’ No, it is nothing like that. You’re taking off and it’s just a little rumble. You don’t see anything. You’re looking around.”
Jimmy Fallon: “You hear the explosions?”
Christina Koch: “Not so much. On re-entry. Yes. Exactly. You come back.”
Jimmy Fallon: “It’s loud when it’s here.”
Christina Koch: “It is. But in there, not so much. You come back, you are a literal plasma ball. And you see the fire outside every single window. And then you’re like, ‘So I’m in the flames.’”
Jimmy Fallon: “So that far away. We are the fire.”
Reid Wiseman: “Really? Right there. Right there. Is it hot? I’m clearly not. It’s a little warm. It actually does. Really? And we have to set the stage. You’re coming. We’re watching the altimeter click down. You’re going six miles a second. Six miles a second. 39 times the speed of sound. Six miles a second.”
What’s your view on the subject ? 😅
