Bill Pullman is still my favorite movie president.
I've got Morgan Freeman then Bill at 2.
Yes I agree!
He should have been president in real life too
Lol I’m friends with bill
Papa :/ please elaborate if you could.
Mr Pullman is a great but underrated actor. Deserves more praise and credit.
He has great presence as an actor who submerses himself into roles
@oneofthemillion Agreed. The "underrated " comment is a dumb one that always pops up.
Fell in love with Bill Pullman in While You Were Sleeping, laughed at him in Ruthless People and felt sad for him in Sleepless in Seattle! He's got all my emotions!😘
I remember him from While You Were Sleeping, it's a great movie.
Nehir Akın that really was a good one.
My favourite Romantic comedy of all time
I love the movie still. I've not really seen him in younger stuff so it's odd to hear his voice with this older face
Just rewatched it two days ago..i often watch it on the side when working.. there's a certain magic about those movies that nowadays brash rom coms dont have..im not old by the way!! :D
Just finished watching the final episode of The Sinner (season 3 - Netflix) and it's fair to say Bill Pullman is finest screen actor in the world right now. I'm not sure I've ever seen acting that good. Powerful stuff!
Fell in love with him opposite Sandra in While you were Sleeping....Best President ever...currently enjoying him in The Sinner...love his twinkly eyes xx
Love Bill Pullman....criminally underrated lead actor
He's aged wonderfully
LOL, when I saw the thumbnail for the video I said "Lonestar" in the voice of dark helmet. Such a cool wacky movie, still one of my favorites.
Groovy hippie ME TOO!!!!!
Lonestar eh, one for the watch list.. He's a fave actor of mine. Was real good in Igby Goes Down. Seems like a real cool dude in real life. You could tell that from his acting, somehow. Edit: I see, Lone Starr in the movie Spaceballs
@@meeeowww4614 Spaceballs is a real classic film and hes funny and super cute in it haha
@@kimidanger1150 this scene in Igby Goes Down stuck with me. Not so cute but fine actor czcams.com/video/S9BGqJzlHLc/video.html
I feel bad for him, people are making jokes cause they don’t realise how horrible it is to lose that sense, i wonder if it’s affected his sense of taste too... bless him. I hope those treatments work and he gets it back.
I have no sense of smell and I can confirm that while it does impact taste you can still taste a little bit.
@@Audrey-dh8sz were you born that way?
Jose Lara yeah I’m pretty sure I was, and if not then I lost it so early that I have no memory of ever being able to.
@@Audrey-dh8sz that's interesting, covid is taking a lot of peoples sense of smell and taste. I haven't been able to smell for a week
Jose Lara yeah ive heard about that. It’s not too bad though don’t worry😂
this guy went to my parents wedding since hes good buddies with my stepdad. hes a wonderful man, very calm and composed.
Gosh, Bill Pullman is still so handsome. ❤️
I used to have a weird crush on Bill Pullman when he was on Casper. All my friends were dying for Devon Sawa (I think that's the name of the guy who played Casper) but I found Cat's dad kinda cute hahaha
lar hjp omg same! I was always into bill Pullman’s character! Lol I thought I was the only one
I mean...who didn't? Lol he's so handsome
OMG me too! We are not alone! haha
@@silvialopez5022 Have you seen "When you were sleeping" nice movie. Not so ashamed after that, then
I get a crush on him after watching "While you were sleeping" last night 🤣
"The Sinner" is enthralling, and he's riveting in it. It's interesting because he's such a quiet actor, but me makes a huge impact onscreen.
My forever crush... Bill Pullman
Michael Hutchence apparently lost his smell and partially taste after a fall during a fist fight, and it added substantially to his depression. Pullman is a classy guy so he might downplay it quite a bit. Mind you, this man is 65 so he has lost his smell some 40 years ago - yet he still is keeping up his search for a cure. He did mention the lack of empathy.
oh God what a sweet man,i see him as an gentleman. Had such a huge crush on him .
I still crush on him!
He’s SO good in The Sinner.
Fantastic actor. Love Pullman
For a guy who doesn’t do many talk shows, he seems to be quite comfortable here.
he was saying something about not getting empathy when losing the sense of smell and comparison to losing other senses. i wished he got to finish his point cause it felt like he was sharing something he was struggling with. hmmm
I LOVE Bill Pullman!!!!🥰
One of my favorite actors. He rarely does talkshows - or at least I rarely see him doing one. So, this would've been a treat, if I had access to the damn show.
Still the greatest movie president of all times
I totally agree!!!.
He’s still my favorite movie president from Independence Day!!
Its funny that despite watching his role in Independence Day a load of times, i still think of Bill Pullman as Walter from Sleepless in Seattle....
Ahhh Walter, he's so.... *pauses*
He does kind of steal that movie.
@@thatfilmgeekguy tbh i cant watch it without feeling his character gets kicked to the ground for no reason.
Pullman is great.
Love Bill Pullman
Actually, it's Spaceballs for me. One of the greatest movies ever made! Aside from the Princess Bride, of course.
He will always be the President who helped beat the aliens.
He’s gorgeous!
Bless him. Love him.
He was great in Lost Highway!
Casper is the only thing my mind goes to. 😁
And while you were sleeping
The sinner!!!!!!! U have to watch
Bill Pullman is sixty six years old now ..Good grief time flies by so fast.😧
He's gorgeous
Yeah but hes been acting since the mid 80s that was a long time ago lol
Sally Field will always be Miranda Hillard from Mrs Doubtfire .For Bill Pullman its While you were sleeping and Casper.
"I'm not saying it's aliens..."
It's actually freaky how much he looks like a Pullman. And I mean Pullman probably 10 times removed. He looks exactly like my Pullman relatives in Australia and NZ.
Who remembers him in lake placid?
Shot in Shawnigan Lake, BC
One of my brothers lost his sense of smell in a motorcycle accident. He and I are both super-tasters (I’m also a super-smeller), which is what makes most picky eaters what they are, and he says the only advantage is that now he can eat a whole bunch of healthy vegetables that he couldn’t stand back when he could taste his food.
I too am quite picky and have a great sense of smell. I didn't know a "super" anything was a thing.
Vendrix
Science is a wondrous thing in that it continues to reveal little bits of information that will suddenly explain odd phenomena, like how a person can’t appreciate a flavor like cilantro or durian if they’re missing a certain enzyme related to that herb or fruit. To me, eating even a speck of cilantro tastes like what I imagine it would be like to sprinkle bleach over my food.
@@maryrosekent8223 I too hate cilantro haha
Vendrix
Is it bleachy tasting to you?
@@maryrosekent8223 lol I've never tasted bleach so I wouldn't know :p .... no but seriously it is like soap so I can't. I know people either love it or hate it.
My first crush❤❤
My wife also lost her sense of smell from a head injury (car accident). She has to "taste the air" like a snake now.
by far the best movie president
Next one is chris hemsworth emilia clarke kit harrington
gotta be fun
Is it?
And Paul Rudd!!!! :)
Also both of there projects are so secretive I have no idea what they’ll talk about lol
I think that he was amazing in Torchwood he was the best part of the series
I wonder if when Bill was on top on the tower on the stage someone asked what he was doing and he just said " I'm scanning"
Omg it's Lone Star!!. 😊😂
Thanks for posting.
Loved Bill with. Sandra Bullock
I will watch anything he is in (even movies I would normally turn off) just to see his work. Such an under-rated actor and more importantly; he truly seems like a decent person. The irony of his speaking on the lack of empathy from people and then the panels crass reaction; exposes how insensitive and narcissistic most "celebrities" really are. I hope he tries dry fasting (or even water fasting) as that is the only thing that will cause the body to produce new stem cells. There are also new stem cell treatments (available in Mexico etc) that may help as well as using a vibrational plate machine.
Omg, Bill Pullman looks like Popeye as the president of the US
I once asked a waiter what he recommended to eat and he said he couldn’t smell or taste so he couldn’t help me. I was a little tipsy and thought he was joking and laughed. I still feel guilty about that. Each one of our senses is important to our well-being and the loss of one and its subsequent affect on someone shouldn’t be trivialized (not that anyone has done that here 🙂).
Poor Bill, i lost my smell for one year, really tough
How are you now?
Yeah, how was it?
finally some new clips instead of recycled ones
The end of the video is going to make me lose my hearing
Yes, I always get ready to play pause at that time. 😵
Always remember him from Spaceballs
He Got the looks of a Great motivator and true leadershiP
I wonder if the holistic treatment worked... Hopefully they'll invite him again and he'll be able to tell it worked.
President Witmore has aged quite a bit.
It has been 22 years, people age.
_it's almost like he's a human being_
you'll get there too someday m8
To loose one's sense of smell is no small thing - 80% of experiencing and tasting food is smelling it.
The Serpent and the Rainbow , wow , that movie freaked me out.
Hey!! Tweedledee and Tweedledum!! 😁
The worst thing about this must be that you also loose your sense of taste. Food tastes are all about smelling really.
It is. You don't even want to eat because the food has no flavor, just the "true tastes" of sweet, sour, salty, bitter, and savory/umami. And you don't realize how many subtle environmental smells you're taking in, until all you have is "empty" air. I lost my sense of smell completely for a week or so last year after the flu. It took several months to come back all the way.
@@castlerobber Glad to hear you got your smell back.
I think it could also affect lots of things because smell is directly connected via neurons to the brain. Lots of our memory and emotions are tied into that.
Probably you compensate but I imagine it's pretty bad.
It's nice to see Bill getting some empathy here.
Good point about the memories and emotions thing, which is a serious thing. I hope he gets to have his sense of smell back, even partially.
Fellow Anosmic here, I lost my sense of smell when I was 4 and haven't smelt anything since, I'm 36 now
I have hyposmia I think (severely decreased sense of smell) and people don't get that it's dangerous. I usually can't smell toxic substances or food that has gone bad. One remedy is cayenne pepper nasal spray. A lot of people it works for but when I tried it, it only worked for about an hour.
@@ILoveRomances that's very true. I would never smell a fire in my house or a gas leak. I've probably got about 5% taste compared to someone who is able to smell, can only really taste sweet or sour.
Has your sense of taste been affected at all? 😊
@@milo8515 People make fun of me because I can eat foods that don't go together one right after the other like I'll eat fish and then ice cream, not in the same dish but I can have a bite of fish and then a bite of ice cream with no problem. Tastes, like smells, don't linger at all for me. I almost never need a palate cleanser. I tend to like foods with very few ingredients. I rarely use condiments or sauces. My palate is pretty unsophisticated.
The biggest issue for me is that I can't detect unpleasant odors like when a room is stuffy. I'm always self-conscious that my apartment, my clothes, my car, or myself smells and I can't tell. I stopped wearing perfume because I would use too much and wouldn't be able to tell. Deodorant is a lot easier to get right, thank goodness.
I was in an apartment fire before and everyone else was out because it took me longer to detect the smoke. I've used too much ammonia before and other people were really affected by it and I wasn't. I've thought about being a sanitation worker or working around toxic chemicals and using it as an advantage, lol.
It's really frustrating because usually people can tell when other people are without their other senses but people don't believe you about a loss of smell. It's always, "you can't smell that?". With hyposmia, it's worse because sometimes you can smell and sometimes you can't so people think you're faking.
I'm a congenital anosmic, which means that I was born without a sense of smell, and all of the things that you guys have mentioned are so true. The thing that hurts the most is when people, whether don't believe you or are ignoring the issue. So many people ask me constantly if I can smell a certain thing, and when I say no they continue with "well, what about ____ ?" So annoying... It's also very interesting to read your point of view about food because I don't think my sense of taste is much different from everyone else, but what would I know. 😁 The only thing that I know for sure is that I like my food very salty, or very sugary, etc... So maybe it has to do something with a decreased sense of taste. I'm also very curious about how you guys discovered that you weren't able to smell, especially you @Milo Plays because 4 years old is very young! It took me 14 years to realize that I wasn't able to smell anything and 6 more years to hear a diagnosis! 😅
@@figuss I had a bad cold as a teenager and a couple of years later, I realized that I wasn't able to smell things like I used to, but since it's hyposmia and I could still smell here and there, it wasn't as noticeable at first. It helps when I'm around relatives cooking chitlins, though, lol. I'd say 90% of the time, I don't smell anything but if I try to, I have to hold whatever the object is directly under my nose but even then, it only lasts for about a minute or less.
Old miners worked in pairs because 1 out of 20 could not smell the stink they put in the air system when there was a fire to warn everybody to run for their lives. RIP miners in The Sunshine Mine Disaster, ID.
Whoa!?! Dr. Evil's still alive
Have Lewis Pullman next :D
Same thing happened to me, but I did recover a little bit of it.
Damn I didn't even recognise him
Why is Bill giving us his best impersonation of Robert De Niro in this clip?
Actually a great deal of our taste experience is because of our sense of smell. If you have NO sense of smell, one's experience of taste would be diminished as well. Think of all the wonderful things we smell! I'd hate to lose my sense of smell completely!
President Whitmore 2020!
Serpent and the Rainbow
can you guys get action bronson on the show?
If he says that right now,he will be rushed for a covid test
Great... Now I’m paranoid of losing my sense of smell...
Sleepless in Seattle
Who else is stuck in the never ending loop of The Graham Norton show 👀
👇🏻
Why is hitman on that couch?
Matt Lucas does look like a "different" version of it. 😁
Fyi worldwide, 100% i have caught a fly with chopsticks like i was Pat Morita in the eighties. No lie, i caught it in my grandparents bathroom and celebrated in the kitchen, not sure if it lived. It was late so i have no witnesses. Believe me bixchez.
bill looks like he has been hitting the sauce big time
Now we have Covid to make us lose our senses!
Mine is also distorted from last 7 months
There must be some perks to losing your sense of smell.
Is she Keeley Hawes ?
I lost my sense of smell at age 14. Kinda sucks, I guess, but you get used to it.
Sorry to hear that. May I ask - what has been the most challenging thing since losing your sense of smell?
Am I the only one who used to confuse Bill Pullman with Bill Paxton?
How does he react to smelling salts? Does he just feel it?
According to Wikipedia, "Smelling salts release ammonia (NH3) gas, which triggers an inhalation reflex (that is, causes the muscles that control breathing to work faster) by irritating the mucous membranes of the nose and lungs."
So, basically, yes. It isn't the actual smell of the ammonia, but the irritation of the tissues, that gives smelling salts their effect.
it seems like he cant get rid of Harry Ambrose
I hate it when actors get old, he seems a little....slow here. I just remember him saying "....nuke them, nuke the b****rds" I want to go back in time :(
Bill Pullman sure aged a lot
Man he got old
That's what I thought. He looks like someone else
Well the alternative kind of sucks doesn’t it?
you'll get there too m8, we're only human after all
It's easier for me because I got old too.
Everybody gets old ffs, celebrities are not immune aliens you know
Covid much 👀
that dude is so hairless he a ghost
2nd
Lol 1st
With people's hygene these days, I wish I could lose my sense of smell.
Sense of smell sucks anyway, it's so overrated. Too many awful smells in the world (I could live without the good ones). I'd have no problem if I lost my sense of smell.
Sense of smell affects sense of taste. Imagine eating something and not tasting it? Taste is a big reason why we search for food when we are hungry, to furfill our craving. It's why you choose flavoured crisps over regular crisps, although no sense of taste would be even worse for regular crisps because you won't even taste the salt or potatoe! Smell heightens performance in the bedroom. Smelling your partner's hair, perfume, skin, (area downstairs XD) all heighten your senses for intercourse. You also put yourself at risk for losing your sense of smell. If your house was burning while you was asleep, you wouldnt smell the fire in its early stages. If you left the gas on, you wouldnt be able to smell it. A lot of people who have lost their sense of smell claim to be very self concious. Not being able to know if something smells bad like your room, car, shoes, yourself, if something has gone rotten without you knowing, a dead animal ie. A rat behind something, damp. So many things to take into consideration when losing your sense of smell, I can guarantee you wouldnt like it as much as you think you wouldnt mind it at all. Every person I've read about losing their sense of smell seems to be really distraught about it. Be careful what you wish for.
You've got problems. I'd rather... lose a leg, arm, testicle, ability to get an erection, any organ that's not the heart or brain, sense of touch, hundreds and thousands of dollars, years of my life, etc.
