Robin Williams was robbed of so many oscars. God I hate Hollywood.
The good actors don't really give a shit about the Oscars because they know it's staged.
Robin still has a star on the Hollywood Walk, though. It can be found at 6925 Hollywood Blvd.
He was nominated four times and he won once, that's clear recognition of his art. But no, you hate Hollywood because he didnt win all the oscars. Because apparently getting nominated four times and winning once just isnt good enough.
svennie pennie okay mom
@Staying Sober winning an Oscar isn't much more impressive than getting nominated, a nomination is usually equivalent, the only difference is usually literally bribery, luck etc.
This is kind of a common view as well, hasn't exactly been fucked over by Hollywood when everyone has equal respect and high opinion of him with it without multiple wins.
“It’s gunna be hot and wet. that’s nice if you’re with a lady, but it’s no good if you’re in a jungle”
Pure poetry
Very much so
Or in the desert.
"D. Roosevelt, D Roosevelt...what it was, what it is, what it shall be. I tell you this: Weather today will be *hot* and *shitty*. Tomorrow, continuing *hot and shitty* with a pissy weather front coming down from the North."
More like poor poetry
Lmao yeah
Imagine buying Call of Duty: Cold War. Your playing a mission in Vietnam, you turn on a radio and hear this...
That would be amazing!
I need that in the game
Because he does a impression of the guy from the Twilight Zone, I read what you said in his voice.
As a Vietnamese, I would love to hear this broadcast when I finally play the game for myself.
@@edh8900 Well there you have it. Activision, You BETTER HAVE IT IN THERE
"Robin filmed so much footage, we could make 5 movies. But because he couldn't hear us laughing one room over. He thought he sucked and you can see him sweating more and more worried he blew it. Only when he came in and saw us unable to speek, on the floor rolling, did he realize we had a hit"
Seeing the guy falling over in the window next to him is a nod to this
I wish we could see these vids :(((
Did the same when he did the Genie in Alladin, they had HOURS of footage and lines, and they where just dying of laughter in the booth
OMG, I never read this before. This is awesome.
@@Mugthraka It was the same way with Mork & Mindy, especially when Jonathan Winters was on the set with Robin. There are countless hours of cut footage of the two of them improving on the set.
Robin...RIP
What a great man, great talent great mind.
You are very missed even now years after your passing
All adlibbed, no scripting. Robert Wuhl in the background was dying, and he's a comedian.
That was the thing about working with Robin Williams, you never knew what the hell he was going to say or do next. Most of his lines as the Genie in "Aladdin" were also improv on his part. The animators had to re-animate part of the sequence because he went off-script so much, and finally the studio let him record his part and THEN they did the animation to match the recording.
@@traveller4790 True...
...but Will Smith is black.
@@rationalmuscle So is Forest Whittaker. Your point? They all have won Oscars.
Seriously? It was impressive when I thought it was just a prefect delivery. That's mind blowing
@@KristineMaitland He's talking about the shitty Aladdin remake with Will Smith I think.
We didn't lose one person when Robin died...
We lost hundreds.
Ditto dude thanks Robin Williams for your journey 🙏
Billions
@@brandond73 Yeah, ecause you've really thought about what goes through their heads for years, even decades before, with NO help, the struggle I am having at the moment with that exact part, the people it fucks up after you've topped yourself, I've been dealing with those thoughts & feelings for a few years now.
I have the utmost respect for the man, having made a life of helping free people from thei concerns, all the while underneath, like nails on a black board, & did I mention the isolation in them & the sheer lack of understanding anyone speaking to you even has for it, just fuck me wow, that comment to what Benjamin said, you've got issues bud, just thought I'd tell you, I hope you never have to experience anything like, in your cushty little skull.
The irony of how selfish your comment is is off the scale
His joy lives on in our hearts, & that's one of the thing's he wanted
WE LOST GENIE!
Just imagine being in Vietnam turning on a radio and hearing this....
yea lol I'd turn it straight off
If my radio had a headphone jack, I'd be using it.
Either that or I'd use it like a lure to spook the vietkong.
Seriously, just slip this in one of their hidey holes at 6 am and let it blare.
BigStickyNugs really? I wouldn’t, it would give me a peace of mind. After rucking gear in thick humid jungle heat, getting shot at by an unrelenting enemy, seeing my friends die, and the thought of not making it back home constantly on my mind, I would want something that could help me forget all the negativity of war.
GOOOOOOOOOOOOOODMORNING VIETNAAAAAAAM
It would fit right in. Kinda the point of the movie.
I miss Robin Williams, but let's also give a shout-out to Bruno Kirby who played Lt. Haulk. He was so good at playing someone who was so tone-deaf to humor. RIP to both men, you are both missed.
Agreed Bruno Kirby was so good in this, as he was in everything.
Same guy who plays Swifty in Bastketball Diaries? I thought I recognized him.
Humor? What the hell is that supposed to mean? 😉
Yes! Bruno Kirby is one unsung hero in the world of movies! Thank you for remind him!
He was also great playing Billy Crystal's friend in When Harry Met Sally and City Slickers.
That was my alarm all through highschool, "GOOOOOOOOOD MORNING VIETNAAAAAAAAMMMM!
Yessssss
You just gave me the idea, thank you
It still is my alarm lol
@@rpmbadass88 You need to change it from time to time, otherwise it stops working :p
I was morning announcements in my high school for a short time and I did what he did to make things fun but the principal didn't appreciate the fun so I was taken off and it became boring again.
The guy in the booth is almost falling over with laughter 😂
Marty laughed at everything. Adrian could have farted into the mic and he'd have lost his shit.
@Gus Scott you do realize a lot of Robin Williams best comedic scenes were all improv? In a lot of these movies the other actors are genuinely laughing at Robin. Just watch any behind the scenes footage and you'll see none of these actors were fake laughing during his takes.
High as a kite
The guy inside the booth is forest whitaker I’m pretty sure
@ajs1031 In short, everybody was laughing their asses off and had the potential of falling.
The genius of Robin Williams. Everything he did on camera as a DJ was ad libbed. I could watch this every day. Just brilliant. He passed away too soon. 😰
Was it really ad-libbed?
@@guitarofdestiny apparently so. His comic brain was so quick
@@petergreen2552 that's awesome. Yeah, he worked on an entirely different level, that's for sure.
Yes it was adlibbed. If you're clever enough like me youll find it on yt
this isn’t super related, but the beginning of Aladdin when he’s trying to sell his wares was also ad libbled, and the bit where it’s like ‘it’s a combination hooka coffee pot, it will not break, it will not break, it broke’ was actually the thing falling apart after he picked it up
"Those pilots really like the music." As hes sped up talking. Lmao all those pilots were on stimulants and amphetamines.
austin g really?
That would be kind of fucked up to be under the influence while flying an airplane
@@Doinksinamish820 Amphetamines was fairly popular for pilots during WW2, Korea and Vietnam.
They were issued in rations. I collect them, and they were in various air force and army rations leading right up to Vietnam. I happen to own some 12 tabs of 1960-vintage USAF-issue dextroamphetamine.
Pilots still use amphetamines they're called go pills
I was deployed in 2004. I know we had things like TV and PlayStation and Xbox but if we didn’t have those things we damn sure would have loved to hear a radio show like this.
tony castillo You has Xbox? Where the hell were you?
Mick Funny your English is terrible. Second, lots of people had them.
@@tonyacasdrummer How many languages do you speak?
SNIperofDARKness02 I have learned 3 different languages besides English. Plus I also sign. What is the relevance of the question?
@@tonyacasdrummer You sound like a arrogant prick that's why.
Robin was an incredible impersonator. He could have done nothing but that if he'd wanted to.
You do know he was an actor, right? (just asking)
@@CZcamsCFO as if every actor can do impersonations
@@Linkinator01 -- some are better than others - and SOME can act ANYWAY _they_ want!
:p
In this 3 minutes here you can see the pure genius.
I get the impression, that cracking up was _not_ scripted.
@@hellacoorinna9995 en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Good_Morning,_Vietnam
"Most of Williams' performances that portrayed Cronauer's radio broadcasts were improvisations."
I just starting to fully realize what a genius we lost ....
xD SAYS WHO? you selfranked pathetic turds xD hahahaha
@@leoyang887 That a fucking CCP VIRUS shill uses WIKI makes me laugh like Nyarlathotep. Come to DUNWHICH,,,,,,,,,,,,,COME TO ARKHAM, TOY..............I'll introduce you to Brown Jenkin. And then we can watch the manifold inorganics dance.
@@hellacoorinna9995 It was not scripted. This was him doing a 100% improv.
If I’m right, most of this is improvised...Robert Wuhl and Forest Whitaker’s reactions...well...priceless ❤️
I have to agree with you on that....even the best writer in the world would never be able to script any of that...never....
If what I heard was correct, there were hours and hours of clips of him in the studio.. Cutting room floor would have looked like a ball pit
Martin Ironfoot everything was improvised during the broadcast scenes by Robin Williams himself.
Robert Wuhl u mean *Robin Williams
impact zone Negative
It's sad seeing Robin Williams looking young and physically healthy and knowing that however much he was suffering at this time, he would keep going for almost another three decades.
valar he was fine at that time
He struggled with depression for his entire adult life.
He only had dementia for the last months of his life. Troll harder.
valar wait, you mean the last two months before he committed suicide? What a coincidence
Yes, he committed suicide because he had Lewy Body dementia and incipient Parkison's, after struggling with depression for 40 years. I'd probably do the same thing in his shoes.
Did you think I didn't know that? Come on man. You troll harder too.
"Picture a man, going on a journey beyond sight and sound; he's left creeped. He's entered *_The_* *_Demilitarized_* *_Zone_* " lmao'd
Crete
He’s left Crete
Maybe he felt creeped about leaving Crete?
Crete, it is a small island off the coast of Greece. Williams' character was stationed there before being transferred at the request of a general(I believe) to Vietnam
I don’t get the Crete reference.
I just got the guy in orange robes burst into flames joke. That’s dark.
But hilarious
I don’t get it
@@izaneo4296 Look up "Thich Quang Duc", Buddhist monk who set himself on fire to protest the Vietnam war
Edit: It was specifically the persecution of his fellow Buddhists by the Viet Cong during the war
Izaneo en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buddhist_crisis give this a look over.
@@zachrichard9440 It was not the Vietcong but the South Vietnamese dictatorship of Ngô Đình Diệm which had a pro catholic/anti buddhist policy. Buddhist protest against this policy were put down harshly and the monks prosecuted. One of the reasons of the coup against and assassination of Diệm. And why the US government did not mind the coup much as Diệm did not want to make concession to the Buddhists.
This scene's already great, but serious props to the dedication by both the writing and Williams' acting to sell the idea that he's really doing this in '65. When he's pulling out such era-specific zingers like "The Wicked Witch of the North, Hanoi Hannah!" and "It's so damn hot, I saw this little guy with an orange robe burst into flame!" so damn quickly, it feels so authentic that it's like there's no separation of time from when the movie was made (1987) to when it's supposed to take place (1965).
This scene was actually improv!
I did two tours in 'Nam and got here in early '66 when Adrian Cronaur was live on AFVN doing this schtick. We all had a blast listening to our transistor radios back then.
Thanks brother. I got to the A Shau in late 68. Served 3 tours. Yeah, the music helped. Welcome back to the world.
From a foreigner, thank you both for your service
@@warrencaudle4378 three tours? what made you want to keep coming back for more, if you don't mind me asking?
@@judyhopps9380 I am not the person you asked. However, I deployed 4 times to Iraq, for a total of a bit more than 5 years in theater.
Partly because I have no close family, so, better me than another soldier with a wife and kids.
Partly because I was a very well prepared soldier. My fellow NCOs contributed to other soldiers coming back home alive.
Perhaps it would be better if I were a doctor or nurse. I am not, but I do have a "gift" that helps keep others alive. I felt compelled to volunteer to do what I do well.
@@paladinsix9285 Well I'm English, not American, but thank you massively for what you've done *hug*
this is why Will Smith playing the Genie has everyone so upset. even he can't keep up with this legend. RIP
"Even he"? What is that supposed to mean? as if Smith is like the super talent of our times but even he can't compare with Robin? Give me a break..
I've no intention of watching Will Smith yet again play Will Smith pretending to be the Genie. That movie has failure written all over it.
I have no problem with Will Smith playing the Genie, but I’m not going to see the movie because the rest of the movie doesn’t look interesting at all
Taken into account, and blown away, Robin is on another Level, its not even funny.
@@notquitemytempo1353 yeah? he's very talented. you're saying he's not? you must be too young to even remember Robin Williams. Robin was on a different level. you're very aggressive.
@@TardRepellent You completely misunderstood my comment. It wasn't negative about Robin in any way. On the contrary.
If anything, it was negative about Will Smith.
I think every soldier drafted into the Vietnam War deserved to be stationed in Poontang.
Even girl soldiers? That would been kind of awkward LOL
Im sure they were getting lots....consent or not
@@CZcamsCFO there weren't any
@@flyde6521 Lol, I have a mom and grandma, what do you mean? Last I checked, if there were no girls... we wouldn't exist!
@@CZcamsCFO girl...... _soldiers_
GIRL ...... *SOLDIERS*
"You've been down on everything but the Titanic" fucking LOL.
A treasure of comedy. Robin Williams adlibbed all of this. Who the hell could do that now? No one. One of a kind and a tragedy of genius. RIP.
That was the best take ever. Even if it's not an improv, it was a clear talented take that he's able to remember that many words and blurt it all out without fail. God damn...
RIP you magnificent beast. Hope you're happy whereever you are right now.
It was improv
almost everything Robin Williams did was improv.
I can remember this back in the eighties, we weren’t Americans, but Robin transcended culture boundaries.
The whole cinema just cracked up.
And this was an Irish cinema, the most budgrugery bunch of f*cks you’d ever find.
RIP Robin, your wit and talent gave joy to the world.
Geez, you have such a low opinion of your own people. I dont know what part of Ireland you're from, but I can tell you, we have a great sense of humour in the country even if we like a bit of moan
Robin Williams is probably one of if not thee best comedian actor ever. Taken from us too early
Anyone who could watch Robin Williams do improv like this scene and not laugh could watch a sunrise and not be inspired.
RIP Robin, you made the world a better place!
I always lose it when he says Freddie is the Devil and he throws the record.
_Yeet_ that record
I love the delicate intro music followed immediate by Gooood Morrnnning Vietnam
Mr. Williams does not need Oscars, He deserves a whole new category of awards in his name.
The world became less funny when he died. RIP Robin Williams, you are so greatly missed.
No-one will top Robin
Love how Forest Whitaker is really fighting to keep his composure, and the guy in the white shirt in the other booth doesn't even bother and is just losing it.
I'm having a hard day, I mean the type that makes you want to give up. Watching this drew that awful feeling right out of me, left me smiling. I miss him.
He was the only actor I honestly cried for when I found out he died. He's responsible for so many good memories in my child hood RIP Rob love you buddy.
You can tell even all the actors around him were just amazed by what they were witnessing. Robin you are a legend.
He was a force of humour that just could not be stopped and also an incredibly talented actor. Nanu nanu, you are sorely missed here.
The amazing thing is that Robin Williams could do this at the drop of a hat, and could continue for hours. He was interviewed on "Inside the Actor's Studio" and kept going with stuff like this for two hours after they had finished filming. One woman had to be taken to the hospital because she laughed so hard for so long.
Robin Williams was a blessing! Thank you Robin for bringing us so much joy!
All in one take. All out of his freaking genius. The guy is a legend!!
Robin Williams was one of the greatest ever.
1000 % 👍
Comic genius and best American Scottish accent in history. RIP.
He could not 100% carry a plot-driven film like this just on his schtick! Nobody can!
I still remember watching this in the theatre when I was a kid and I couldn’t believe he could pull all those voices and characters out of his head...
- R.I.P., Mr. Williams
One of the best improv comedians of all time robin williams you will be missed you are a legend.....
Everybody thinks of his comedy, but he was a damn good actor, period. He could make you cry just as easily as he could make you laugh.
To the GREATEST comedic genius of all time! Thank you so much, Mr. Robin Williams!
Sad to see the main actors Robin Williams, Bruno Kirby and J T Walsh are no longer with us. *RIP*
Robin Williams is a legend, thanks so much for his many years of amazing entertainment. May his soul get whatever he desires.
He was amazing!!!! Very much missed. I hope he is in a very good and peaceful place and still bringing happiness to all around him.
You mean the worms in his coffin? That's fucked up asshole.
Got to see the real guy in person when my town did a tribute to Vietnam vets! He is truly hilarious. Robin Williams did him good!
I am so grateful to have enjoyed Robin's career as it unfolded. I've laughed until I cried watching him and still marvel at his talent and creativity. May he ever be at peace and know the love we all have for him.
My dad had the "good morning vietnam" soundtrack cd. I haven't heard it in awhile but I can tell you right now I could probably repeat the whole thing word for word, all of his little skits, then know the exact song that would play next. We would play it every single year we took a road trip down to florida. Blasting all of the classics on that cd on the beach in Daytona. Great times and I will never forget those moments.
"Do you have any special skill?"
"Oh yes, I do. I do voices."
“YAY-ESS!”
This man was and is still amazing!
I remember being a nerdy teen, sore as heck from Gym class, with my abdominal muscles cursing me. Went to this movie and nearly split myself in half, laughing so hard and it was painful but awesome!
I bought the cassette for this movie back when it was released, great selection of songs, to a great movie, with one of the greatest actor/comedian ever to walk this earth.
There will never be another as good as Robin
YOU JUST CROSSED OVER TO........ THE DEMILITARIZED ZONE! HAHAHA RIP Robin Williams great soul
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA rest in peace.
The other actors were genuinely convulsed with laughter !
Wrong!

@@rosskerr1439 Woah. Okay, now that's cool.
Man his talent knew no bounds. I've been a fan of his for years and regret never getting to see him live doing stand up.
Still the best to date. Surprising you couldn’t get away with it on radio these days
Robin Williams. Rest in peace. The great ones always seem to go too soon. Rest easy sir, and thank you for all the laughs And greatness you gave us though the big screen.
One word......... Genius........ To think the world we live in no longer has this man. A man that knew the world needed to laugh. To think how he died saddens me so deeply. Mr Robin Williams thank you for making the world laugh. Truly living for others. Thank you
Mrs doubt fire aswel yea cracks me up with the dinosaurs
3:00 the reaction of the guy in the back makes everything better XD

Robin Williams was so awesome and original. He's definitely missed
Years after his death and I'm still mourning the genius we lost.
0:46, "who gave anyone permission to program modern music?", lol
Even back in those days, the military was very much into "our way or the highway", even regarding entertainment. The soldiers were expected to be human drones, thinking and feeling only what the top brass ordered them to.
Someone did
Considering much of the modern rock music of the time was in protest of the war, it made sense why they chose to censor it.
@@alixvandurand Thats true. Whenever I heard video games and movies play most of the rock songs on the background I realized these aren't even the ones GI's listened to because the armed forces radio did not play them.
Still brings tears to my eyes. This one movie was when I met two great men my dad (I was adopted, he was the first to show it to me... the movie) and Robin Williams, I never saw my dad laugh like he did when watching this.. and now both are gone 😭
We’ve entered.. the demilitarized zone..

There was only ever one actor who could do this scene. Now there is nobody at all. What a genius.
undoubtedly one of the greatest movies ever. Robin Williams was an unparalleled comic genius. QEPD
Robin Williams was a true and born entertainer......You could not take that away from him! This was a classic HOOK of his true talent in comedy improv!!!
What is something you liked about the film. Explain Briefly.
@@mrteaparty6090 I appreciate the genius of how Williams took the script and made the narrative nature of the war a light hearted scope of whirlwind comedic dialog, antics and physical gestures that was truly his genius. Williams stated that the director allowed him to take the script in many scenes and allowed him to inprov the scene/dialog.......He was a master!!!!
@@ashleystewart994 What was considered "propaganda" in the film "Good Morning Vietnam," and how did the main characters react to it?
Man, Robin Williams is so good at acting that this was probably something he improvised to make the movie better.
As a certified Viet, I am glad to have been good morninged by the late Robin Williams in such a passionate fashion
I loved watching this movie at the "$5 theater" in Santa Fe Springs ca. That was the first movie i can remember crying laughing. Like when you cant breathe laughing. One of the best ever.
No matter how much time goes by, it still puts a smile on my face and a bounce in my walk!
In my mind this one scene was 1 of the best he has ever done in any movie.
Always puts a smile on my face..
That “GOOOOOOOD MOOONING VIETNAM!!!” Never gets old
The worlds light got noticeably darker on the day he took his life. RIP to a true legend. He will go down in history for being one of the best ever and he deserves every bit of it.
I'd listen to a radio show hosted by Robin Williams anytime
He passed away, asshole. (rip)
My left ear enjoyed this
Mr Robin Williams is top class always has and always will be top class
RIP, Robin Williams!!!! You’re an inspiration of life for me!!!!!
Damn one of best scenes in this movies. RIP Mr. Willliams. I grew watching his movies and they always make me laugh. Thank you for all laughter you gave me.
Mr. Williams was a fucking A C T O R, not a comedian. Disrespectful...
We didn’t deserve a man as great as Robin Williams 🙁
I think in this scene the actors laughing is legit. I really think they had no idea this was gonna happen.
