      @mjentertaintment2706 Před 6 měsíci +8

      I think its more accurate to say :
      RDJ: Trying his best not to burst out laughing:
      These three comedic geniuses know that sometimes the best comedy is the contrast: so if Jack is going all out one of them has to be reserved to make it really pop:
      If you look early on RDJ was improvising as well: but also Ben stiller did the same: almost taking turns with RDJ being the "serious" or base contrast while the others popped.

    Jack Black’s pure energy and obvious love of music is just so dang infectious that as the performance goes on, it starts to positively affect Stiller and RDJ - Stiller gradually starts to let loose a bit more and gave some fun with it, and RDJ breaks his natural coolest dude onstage vibe to smirk and try suppressing a laugh at Jack’s antics. No way you can be that close to the sun of Jack Black up onstage and not feel the warmth of those rays of pure excitement and joy! Loved and needed this!
