No one brought the "energy" like Robin Williams. No one. Gone before his time.
Drewg351 The energy, the laughter, a little bit of good-natured roasting, and a lot of likability and respect. Indeed, Robin Williams was - IS - the man.
@@haklaz352Its why its great they picked him to present to Al. One rocket fuel of a man to another
Coke
Cannot forget "Chris Farley"
They both left this earth 2 early.
R.I.P!!
I would have loved to see Jim Carrey and Robin Williams in a movie together, and wait until the credits to watch the two of them go off...
"If you put Robert De Niro in a dryer, you get Al Pacino!" One of the best lines I have ever heard lol
what does it mean bro
@@hasanemirgenc8000 It means he was smaller than Robert DeNiro. When you put certain fabrics in a dryer they shrink. He was the same quality of actor as RDN, and even they had the same, Italian coloring (and ALL Italian men are handsome!)
I don't......get it..??
@@ericburns7789 ok al Pacino is short, but his acting is on par with Robert deniro, so if you put a taller deniro in a dryer, he’ll shrink down to al Pacino size.
I think he meant also a bit more clean
"Say hello to my little friend
A Line heard all over bedrooms everywhere"
Robin Williams is brilliant
Captain Deadpool “Sad, but true”
Say hello to my little friend I heard that everywhere it was amazing and if there was a Scarface 2 I wish robin was in
May be in yours
Movie was in the makings for years needed the right actor. They found the right actor who better than al Pacino he is awesome !!
Damn, I though I was the only one using that catch phrase in bed..
“For you Godfather!” That line always gets me because it shows deep respect and appreciation.
🙏
I agree!
100%
"For you, Godfather!"*
Absolutely true
ITS A SHAME THEY DIDN'T AWARD A AFI LIFE ACHIEVEMENT AWARD TO ROBIN WILLIAMS
That would have been nice to see him at the big table. Surrounded the people that helped him get there.
disco desanti Dam
wouldn't it be the right thing to do to give Robin Williams the life-time award posthumously? there's award ceremonies that allow that but i figure they do it probably a year or at the time after his death.
a lot of names have won that award and i agree that it's such a shame he never got one.
smoka joka -You’ve got that right. It’s a terrible shame.
Fuckin A
“Let’s all raise our glass to Alfredo James Pacino...or as many of us know you, AL FUCKIN’ PACINO. For you, Godfather!”
Hell yes, Robin Williams. Hell yes.
For you Godfather made me emotional.
Yes
Robin gave the the best and funniest speech ever !!
How do you know it's "fucking", when it's bleeped?
Just kidding.
I simply can't understand this and will understand it ever. Why bleep something when EVERYONE knows what it is? And I mean everyone. 🤨🙄
wow....causes me to desire a cup of capUCINO ......
A legend holding a speech to another legend. We miss you Mr. Williams
We do. So, so much.
We Really Miss you!!😢
“A line heard in bedrooms all over the world”
LMAOOO
Sad but true.
That part hit the hardest. xD
I read this just as it happened
ColdDiceConspiracy 4 real there’s enlargement pills for a reason lol
Franz Styles lol never used them but my manz Robin didn’t need them “ Eight Inches” (Conan Interview)
"For guys who were doing Peruvian blow that's a documentary!!!!"
Man That had me!!!!!
Little Chandy I screamed 😂😂😂😂😂
Can somebody explain this to me, I don't get it. Thanks!
@@louiemariemdadat3000 Robin Williams did a lot of drugs in his time.
Peruvian blow refers to cocaine, so anyone who’s done a pound of cocaine would be high enough to think Scarface was real life.
Now that made me bust out laughing. No one can make me bust out laughing, spit my water out & laugh so hard, laugh so hard that I can’t breath like Robin Williams. And no one ever will again 💔😭
Robin is the perfect guy to present these type of awards.
No. He still is.
Unbelievable. He should have gotten ten of those.
Sandouras pppppppp LP pop p pop pop p pop ppplk hi hi hi
and Jim Carrey
Billy Crystal too.
to be toasted by robin williams is a lifetime achievement in and of itself
💯
"I'd like to raise a glass to you, but that would be 11 months out the window..."
Frigging killed me with that one...🤣🤣🤣
For a non american and non native English speaker, could you explain what that means?
@@rohithpadikkal7082 Robin Williams was a recovering alcoholic; if he did have a drink during the awards, he would have fallen back into bad habits. He never had a problem with poking fun at himself every now and then.
@@JediPhoenix1976 oh😂😂😂thanks for clarifying!
Al FUCKIN' Pacino yeah man
"for you Godfather" great line to end on...
This performance itself deserve a lifetime achievement award
Robin Williams was so brilliant at these events. He knew how to break the ice, make people laugh, and also call out the best parts of the person to be honored. He was brilliant! I’m sure I speak for all of us when I say we miss him.
Every single day.
Amen to that
Hugh will explain it to you when the Viagra wears off! 😂😂😂
SO BRILLIANT AND nice! 😍 oh, how I miss him so much. Will Smith was and will never be anything close to him - he was basically the opposite of Robin Williams.
"All of us" included whoever loved cinema and films once! Williams was beloved elsewhere in this planet.
I could watch Robin Williams all day. . .oh, actually I am
青鬼TV....if you’re watching Robin all day....then you are obviously “gay” ?
I don't blame you. Even after death, he's still freakin' awesome.
Twat.
@@barryrichman9424 What a stupid remark. You're not even bright enough to capitalize your own last name let alone speak about his post.
It has been 1 year, I lost my job, my home, my reason for being and I'm still watching him.
I know this is about Al Pacino but... Holy Shit! Robin Fcuking Williams ladies and gentlemen.
+asr84
I was about to type the same thing.
Robin fucking Williams, everybody!
+I Am Mad Samurai I shed a tear because he's gone. Great person and brilliant actor!
+Samuel S. roben Williams
A-EFFIN'-MENNNNNNNNN!!!!!!!
The way pacino salutes Robin Williams in the beginning.... Man is in a class of his own.
At the end when Robin Williams said “For you Godfather” and bowed. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 True respect and humility.
🙏💞
God I miss this man
If god existed and was not a stupendous asshole he would give him back....
Mallory Lauve.....why are you talking to God ?
Yeah me too!😢😭😢
Same here my favourite actor of all time.
OMG me too, I have never cried about a celebrity, until him, I just cried. I have been a fan since his first appearance on Happy Days.
"For you Godfather" gets me every time.
There will never be another comedian like him. Rest In Peace, Robin.
A mad genius,I watch his stuff now and remember when.rip! funniest man in the world.
@@markcarson9023 So sad he isn't here anymore.
How could anyone dislike this?!? Robin Williams is truly missed
Stop worrying about who just likes it they have their opinions everybody has their opinions I don’t want people to be like mean like everything I like is that when people will be sheep let people have their own opinions I don’t worry about who dislikes things you just enjoy it I enjoy it I don’t care if you don’t like it didn’t like it
I died in “Hoo Ha!”... that was not even a phrase and yet you got an oscar for it... 😂😂😂
What are you four going fucking leghorn?
Who would dislike this? RIP Robin Williams. You were a comic genius.
+Rachel Dalton say hello to my little friend!
So sad
+Howard Koor caca
right :(
Youre damn right. That was fuckin epic. Who else can say a guys name twice at the end of an already hyped speech and continue to not only increase intensity, but have you pulled in like that too.
No one can ever fit this man's shoes. Robin is one of a kind.
Thank you for sharing your talent!
RIP
The improv master of all time. Period. Robin Williams was a great and one of a kind. He is dearly missed.
"EVERYBODY! ATTICA! ATTICA! ATTICA! Playboy bunnies!.......... Okay, let me explain what we're doing" absolutely lost it.
The delivery was absolutely perfect.
That was a great moment, to slow things down a bit for them. He also just wanted to check out the hot girls, I'm guessing. No shame in that
If it was done today, social media would be all over him for this.
@@myaccount4699 well he did treat them like idiots, don't you think so? 🤔
@@marisolhdiaz9233 hmmm I wonder why that joke worked???
I'd like to raise a glass for you but that would be 11 months out the window"
Can somebody explain this to me? Sorry english isnt my first language
+Robert Laubach it isnt really about english but rather his past, he was an alcoholic and this was after his rehab in which he stopped drinking so...
+Robert Laubach raising a glass is symbolic for having alcohol
He was not drinking for more than 11 months and if he would do it then his achievemen will be gone !
And a sad bit of trivia that while filming Insomnia with Al he was struggling with nightless days and picked it up again for a while.
im a 27 year old grown ass man and this brought a tear to my eye. Rip Robin
You will always be missed Robin Williams. May you rest in peace. 🙏🙏🙏
These AFI awards should be released on DVD/Blu-Ray, they are far more interesting than the Oscars.
Eh, no.
What's a DVD
@@Wiseguy305 Google it! It's an upgrade of a VCD.
I agree
Agreed
I sure do miss Robin Williams. :)
We all miss him.
+Squirrel Attackspidy oh man.. sad.. remarkable he was
Squirrel Attackspidylll on OK
Squirrel Attackspidy nobody misses uncle Ben though
Who doesn’t?
Al Pacino does stand the test of time!
Robin Williams was just the best actor! Funny and kind!
I'm laughing out loud and crying at the same time.
*hug*
couldn't have said it better myself......RIP RW
my thoughts exactly
carmonkey
Belated thanks.
lonedrone He shall be missed :(
I love the look on Pacino's face when Robin walks out, he's like "Okay. Here it comes..."
Robin Williams needs to be given that award posthumously.
Robin - a brilliant mind, an underrated actor, and a man who was deserving of a larger helping of health. RIP
Very rarely do comedic actors win awards. He should have won one for Dead Poets Society, Patch Adams, and many more incredible performances, Good Will Hunting is another.
What do you mean underrated？Do you know how many Oscar and Golden Globes he win and bunch of awards he got in movies ?
he was NOT underrated lol
Few people have the ability to blow the house down like Robin Williams..This is an example of this...The energy that he was able to propel into the audience is second to none and you can feel it from the watching it on the video...one of kind and will be greatly missed.
Even more extraordinary when you consider the audience is loaded with elite Hollywood actors and filmmakers.
Well said! It was once said in an interview with Mr. Williams: "It took me nearly 30 years to come to this point (of comedy). God only knows..what metamophasis I will be in the next 30." This he said after making the film "Good Will Hunting."
Brian mo as patty duke said, he was a performer, what do they do when the off button is on?
One of a kind, RIP Robin
"For you Godfather" when he said that it felt so sincere. I think he had a lot of respect for Al Pacino. Just like the respect I have for you Robin, the Godfather of comedy.
There's never a dull moment when Robin Williams is kicking off an AFI tribute to a great actor such as Al Pacino. They were both great in the film "Insomnia" together.
"If you put a Robert De Niro in a dryer you get an Al Pacino."
Pretty accurate lol!!!
can u please explain what exactly it means..
@@vamsidocs5137 In a loving and joking way, Robin williams compared Al Pacino to Rorbert Deniro because both were equally legendary actors. However Al has a very dry sense of humour and personality, he was always serious.
Robin was a genius.
Still he's
"For you godfather" sounded so genuine and sincere. He was the GOAT of improv.
The way he bowed down while saying, " For you, Godfather "... Oh God! Amazing. Just fuckin amazing. Williams must have loved and admired Pacino so dearly. Both greats of their craft. Love them. ❤
They always say make sure you check on your happy friends-r.i.p robin williams you are a legend in your own right.
Robin Williams was not just a comic. He was a persona, he was charismatic, and grabbed your attention if you liked it or not. I shed a tear for this man that let the demons take his life. I suffer with my own demons and if I had one wish it would be to listen to him for just 30 minutes.
I think many people have shed tears for Robin, myself included, it was several years after he left us before I could watch anything with him In it. Even now I sometimes get choked up and can only watch him for a few minutes.
I think no one could make an intro like that...god we are going to miss Robin Williams so much. Rest in peace
I could watch Robin Williams over and over and over, he was just that good. Loved his comedy. Genius.
cant believe he's been gone 6 years into eternity already. we were all truly blessed to have witnessed him
If only he hadn't done what he did. He would have had a field day with Donald Trump as far as comedy
A spectacular entertainer. One of the best in history. Miss you Robin.
Best comment ever 😊😊
@Vanargand Did a family member die...? (All this negativity got me worried)
"That was a DOCUMENTARY!" What an absolutely beautiful guy he was.
Their chemistry in Insomnia is beyond words...one of the best hero-villain dynamics
Never heard a better tribute. Death robbed us! RIP Sir.
"Hef will tell you later when the viagra wears off". He had some big balls to say that.
@@scottknode898 ya but he said that to his face lmfao
Let me explain what we're doing
Mahmoud Hamamo He was explaining the Attica reference in the film Dog Day Afternoon. In the film, Pacino' character Sonny started to incite the crowd of onlookers against the police. This is the movie that Pacino should have gotten the Oscar for!
Howard Koor
@@howardkoor2796 thank you for explanation
TriTorc 👍
@Mahmoud Hamamo and he was explaining it to the Playmates ;)
That's the kind of speech you get from a colleague and friend who holds you in the highest esteem. Brilliant by Williams
Robin is absolutely brilliant in this tribute to Al Pacino
The problem with Robin Williams is he always had to out do his last performance. It was like climbing Mt. Everest.
how is that a problem?
Nads It slowly but surely becomes impossible.
Ho0pz4sho that doesn't matter as long as you're striving to do better than you have before there's nothing wrong with that.
Nads Well apparently it mattered for Robin Williams. I never said it's a bad thing to strive to better yourself every time, I was just saying that I think it was a part of Robin's problem. Just speculating. :)
Ho0pz4sho yeah maybe ur right
RIP Robin Williams. You were one of the best standup comedians.
One of? Robin Williams was so good at stand-up he had to stop doing stand-up so that other people could do stand-up.
RIP Robin Williams. Talent like yours doesn't come along too often.
It always warms my heart seeing one legend pay tribute to another legend.
Robin Williams had more value than we ever gave him while he was alive. Bless his soul.
Avi Nieuchowicz thats fucking true...
I mean he was worth more than 100$ million when he died, plus no one ever said a bad thing about him (almost impossible to achieve in show business). Pretty much everybody loved him. Idk how much more value we could've given him.
that's cause we miss him soo much.
"I would like to raise a glass to you but that would be 11 months out the window." LOL Poking fun at his stint in rehab. Brilliant!
bigleaguechew87 Robin Williams was the greatest!
bigleaguechew87 I love it when people like you point out the bloody obvious.
I didn't get that part, thanks for clarity :)
@@mikewilliams258 as much as it's annoying, usually coments are for this type of shit.
Thanks for letting me know what that means. I was at a loss
"Say hello to my little friend, a line heard in bedrooms all around the world"
I lost it ahahahahah
When you have Robin Williams for the opening act, you know it's time well-spent.
Some people are watching his videos after he has passed to remember him and try to not see that he is no longer alive.. Some people just want to comment rude things about him and people who admire him.. I personally loved the way he was he influenced my childhood and watching him act cheered me up... Rest in peace Mr legendary Robin Williams and our deepest condolences to his family.
well said my friend ... there are so many of Robin's clips I watch at least once a month, if not once a week ... to remind myself of his unbelievable greatness, and of how good he made the world feel .... he may have passed away, but He lives on forever ... will miss you my friend ... R.I.P.
The legend Robin Williams... I love this guy..
I still miss Robin. Not for the movies but just for the joy he brought to the world.
One of the greatest tribute speeches by a legend for a legend. No one can sum up any man but what Robin Williams did for Al Pacino that night was a work of art and worthy of accolade. God bless the man who made us laugh harder than anyone
Robin was great.
Silencio
Robin was great ? i must think that you are joking . You can't say such thing's , unless you say Robin IS Great ! He still has an huge impact on most of our life's ! he will allways be remembered ! Man like him , i don't know if will ever be born ! Long live the man who allways put a smile on everybody's face no matter the consequences ! Respect !
Rainy... ArtfulDodger... I agree with you both. Was, because he is no longer with us, and IS because he can still make anyone laugh.
It’s really difficult to talk about Robin in past tense. His talent and passion is just simply unmatched and timeless. Robin, you’re no longer in pain but all of us feel your void. Rest In Peace ☮️
Robin Williams was such a beautiful man and human being. He was my childhood, and helped a bullied, depressed kid get through a lot. "I think the saddest people always try their hardest to make people happy, because they know what it's like to feel absolutely worthless, and they don't want anyone else to feel like that"...........Damn I miss him.
The Genius Of Robin Williams.....The Peruvian Blow Gag Cracked Me Up...He Is Sorely Missed........R.i.p Robin Williams.
He was an incredible entertainer. He sure is missed!
brilliant. I'm sure Mr. Pacino has never been quite so honored before or since.
AL PACINO GREATEST ACTOR EVER HES A ONE OFF AWARDS SHOULD BE NAMED AFTER HIM HE CAN PLAY ANYONE
You know you've truly made it when a legend like Williams gives a speech about you!
Pacino also said that Robin was His idol. That mutual admiration Is remarkable
Robin Williams was such a fearless comedian. His fearlessness and approach so reminds me of Jim Carey. Where the hell is the wole awards ceremony? Al Pacino's is the best one ive seen i need all of it.
With similarities to Don Rickles insult comedy.
It's a strange thing saying this about someone I never met, but I really, really miss Robin Williams.
04:01
THIS....this chaos and craziness with a mix of satire and positive hahas......nobody could do it the way he did! ❤️❤️
This is my all time favorite tribute. I love how he says " for u godfather " & bows. Amazing. Miss u robin
"Wooaah, that's the sound you make when go to a rectal exam" *DEAD*
Robin Williams killed it! He is surely missed ❤
This really made me cry. Robin, you did an amazing tribute to Al Pacino! ♥️
The Foghorn Leghorn comment by Robin Williams (RIP) absolute had me.🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Thanks for all the laughter Robin. You're gonna be missed dearly. Comedy will never be the same.
1:26 "If you put Robert De Niro in a dryer, ¡YOU'LL GET AL PACINO!"
😂😂😂😂😂😂¡ ¡ ¡ LMFAO ! ! ! 😂😂😂😂😂😂
¡ ¡ ¡ WE TRULY MISS YOU ROBIN R.I.P. ! ! !
what does ''if u put Robert De Niro in a dryer, you'll get al pacino '' mean
@@hasanemirgenc8000 Because Pacino is smaller than De Niro. Like the clothes shrinks in a dryer
@@Mr.Tin_88 u mean he says '' De Niro is a better actor '' ?
@@hasanemirgenc8000 No. I mean for the physical look only...
Al looks truly humbled at the end. What an amazing speech.
When I feel down i always have to watch these videos and even though I have seen most of them i spit my drink out of my nose every time still
And now m crying again.... Miss him so much.
Robin Williams celebrating Rober De Niro and Al Pacino. Three of the 5 acting masters of all time for me. All gods bless you Robin!
Who are the other ones? Jack Nicholson? Humphrey Bogart? Marlon Brando?
+Tom Waits
Meryl Streep and Dustin Hoffman. Saying "of all times" is maybe too much but are definitely the best of what I call "their generation" which doesn't involve age, just "a way of acting" to keep this short. The subject is too much complicate to dissertate about right here right now. I just devoured cinema, all kinda cinema including mute, since very early age, my father was passionate about movies and great actors and my ambition is to direct actors of talent in a close I hope future.
True but the two masters when they were asked about "their own" master in acting they answered without no hesitation "Marlon Brando"...
DeNiro is a dick.
@@tfer1977 why
"say hello to my little friend, a line heard in bedrooms all over the world, sad but true" Robin Williams (godfather of laughing)
Pacino is clearly one of the greatest actors of all time . And a nice guy from what I have heard too . Rip Robin Williams !!!
Besides crying at every clip of Robin Williams, this whole speech gives me goosebumps, with a crescendo at the end.
Like ..its amazing how fast he is, I dont think there are any comedians who can switch this fast.. amazing!
Watching this makes me really sad that Robin Williams is no longer on this Earth :( - what an amazing talent he truly was RIP
Can you imagine how cool it must be to be able to say, that I got a lifetime achievement award from the American film Institute and Robin Williams did the tribute.
That’s so awesomely cool.
