    I like this guy. No nonsense guy inside out! Like one of your old uncles always talking sense. No tattoos, no stupid hairstyles, no oompa loompa bullshit. I wish I was half as cool as him

    People mistake him as being intimidating in real life, which he's not, and so the sad part is, like in here, he can understand when someone's scared and that's when he stops trying. He is in reality a very funny, chill and genuinely good guy.

    As much high praise as this movie has deservedly got --it is easily my favorite film of the year-- Shannon has gotten strangely overlooked. He should've been nominated for an Oscar for performance. He was so much fun to despise in this movie & he was wickedly funny too.

    His look at the camera at 0:27 is gold comedic timing. Good interview!

    He comes off so chill but hes really a hilarious dude too. Besides being a great actor.

    Michael Shannon always gives thorough, thoughtful responses and I love that

    He's great in Shape -- a real badass. Never thought he'd be so laidback in real life.

    If you enjoyed this interview, you should definitely check out Michael's SAG-AFTRA interview with Janelle.. what a delightful listen

    he's so surprised she did her research

    I love this guy, he´s one of my favorite actors! and also I like this interviewer, she had very good questions and let Michael really take his time with the answers, good job.

  • @rob_4227
    @rob_4227 Před 6 lety +2

    Really great questions for Michael. I think these probing and poignant questions would intimidate some actors, but Michael I think is more intimidated by answering the superficial questions that get asked most often.

    Lmfao when he said that he had a prejudice about Tangerine, I got so scared for a sec 😭

  • @primordialcreative

    9:45 he lights up that she brought up a deep cut of his history

    Shannon plays a great heavy. He's just effortlessly offensive.

  • @Womanwithblackdog
    @Womanwithblackdog Před 6 lety +7

    The interviewer is asking lots of naive questions. Michael is so kind and intelligent. He is saving her and doing that in the best possible way. As a result, I learned lots of interesting things.

    I sometimes feel like I want to see him play General Zod again, but now seeing that Marvel makes so many of their characters come back to life, I feel like some characters should remain dead, so that the impact of their death remains with us.

    Squawk.

  • @tlovehater
    @tlovehater Před 6 lety +29

    When are they gonna let him play just a normal dude? Lol.

    • @RohitKumar-gd8vu

      tlovehater they did. Watch Pottersville. It's horrible btw

      Romantic comedy!!
      Hes got a beautiful smile!

    • @pickletarts8196
      @pickletarts8196 Před 6 lety

      He did!
      in 'They Came Together'
      that was Normal AF.

    • @metaldreams3595
      @metaldreams3595 Před 6 lety

      lmao. I was gonna say the exact same thing on both points. I don tknow how they didnt end up nixing the whole idea. Even the fun Disney music was horrible.

    Does shannon ever not seem evil

  • @MrEmafon4
    @MrEmafon4 Před 6 lety +11

    This guy intimidates me a lot. Usually the actors who play the bad guys are really charming people. This guy feels kinda evil.

    • @genocidalsanta3781
      @genocidalsanta3781 Před 6 lety +1

      MrEmafon4 I noticed that when I saw the movie, to be honest. He has a real gravity about him. Also the fact that his character is very knowledgeable. He seems to know a bit about every subject, like the creature's anatomy. And he's good at piecing things together.

    • @jonathanb1406
      @jonathanb1406 Před 6 lety +2

      I think he actually seems like a pretty chill, funny dude in all the interviews and things I see with him. Seems pretty playful.

    • @jayz6008
      @jayz6008 Před 6 lety +5

      He's actually super relaxed all the time. He just has a mean face . Living grumpy cat in human form .

    • @nefwaenre
      @nefwaenre Před 6 lety +4

      MrEmafon4 He's genuinely the nicest guy out there. He's gone through a lot of pain and so in reality he tries his best to make people laugh and be happy.

    • @mirabella2154
      @mirabella2154 Před 2 lety +1

      What? Absolutely not. He is hilarious.

    Is it just me or should this guy be Dr. Doom in the MCU?

      Samantha Thompson May I ask what you refer exactly? Boredom? Unwillingness of being there? Or what? You made me curious.

      So many body language _experts_ on CZcams these days. The fastest growing pseudoscience in the game now.

    • @lovethyneighbour8287
      @lovethyneighbour8287 Před 6 lety +1

      T H I tend to think the same, that is why I asked what she sees that I don't/can't see.

    • @pickletarts8196

      Up to 11 or more than 9000?

    This girl seems super uncomfortable and she needs to speak up, terrible interviewer.

    • @RioRav
      @RioRav Před rokem

      She is clearly pretty new in front of the camera and nervous, give her a break. No one starts as a pro.
