I love the fact that Karl's shirt is homer disappearing and his shirt has also disappeared XD
Lucas Clark Even better is when Homer looks at the word Food in the background hahaha
Marge... I don't feel so good.
Awesome episode I love the following scene of Homer chasing the Flanders car ala T1000 & uses his golf clubs to attach himself to the car that was amazing & when the Simpsons was actually good well better than good every episode was amazing then you watch it now & you're lucky if you get 1 joke that even makes you smile what happened huh what happened to guys like Frank Grimes & Hank Scorpio I was in stitches every episode & now I'm just depressed.
Shadow Clark lAyErS
I love that a good portion of the video he is staring at the word nazis
After seeing what became of David Prowse, I can’t blame him for being so protective of the role
If Daniels is an arrogant twat, then Prowse is a farmer's smock short of a living cliché of a West Country bumpkin. Don't take it wrong, he's a lovely guy, but not very bright and now very bitter about his Star Wars experience.
To be fair can you blame him, George told him he’d be the voice of Darth Vader and then he got replaced in post production
@asaeampan They also apparently mocked him behind his back because of his accent, and he basically had to save his own job by arguing that he should be the one to be acting as Darth Vader to toss the Emperor down the reactor shaft. The director only relented after he tried and failed to film the scene without Prowse.
They could've told him at any time he wasn't going to voice Vader, but they jerked his chain the entire way.
Yes they called him “Darth Farmer” 😠
If he voices everything, that means he voiced the Star Wars Bop It which is shaped like R2D2 and gives you instructions in 3PO's voice. I love the image of him in a recording studio just saying "Bop it! Twist it! Pull it!"
Yeah that was actually him, it’s great lol
Alan Tudyk said one of the greatest compliment to his performance was a f#*k you from Anthony Daniels.
😢
What type of jackass would take a contemptuous insult as a compliment?
5:31 "Andy Serkis could copy a steak dinner if you wanted to"
lmao what a quote.
Pfft, if people can't see that C-3PO have a silver leg in the movies I highly doubt they will notice who is beneath the costume.
Edbrards he doesn't Mandela effect baby !!
Hanniffy Dinn didn't he die in Jail?
Jonathan depends which parallel reality you are from ! 😱
Hanniffy Dinn based on current evidence, that's a silly question to ask: most people who have experienced Mandela effect related phenomena have experienced at least 5 changes already, which combined with the fact that we don't have a full list of events that are varied, it's impossible to calculate your original world, just those with similar divergence.
The earliest change I can remember is a parallel memory of 3 52 star flags (stars in rows in the corner, stars in a ring in the corner, and stars on the stripes) I'm pretty sure that the ring is the original though. And life is like a box of chocolates (is pronounced like fez or fuzz). Mandela died a free man. 5 planes on 9/11, 4 still misses. Nothing odd occurs around the 22 of September. No major changes observed since at least December.
TheApexSurvivor oh for sure, it's interesting to know which effects others had, my first one was in Jan 2013, I was really messing about with Google maps, and has it always on on a monitor at work, and spent a lot of time looking around Australia. Then I noticed it moved !
I told everyone in the office that Australia had moved, and everyone thought I was literally nuts! I deeply researched it, and found out it WA Mandela effect and had all the main usual ones years later. I also learnt what it truly was from Dolores cannon, and hence only awake people can see it.
At the time I was expecting something to change around 2012 anyway, as was quite spiritual and was taking psychedelics.
So people who get it and know the changes are awake people, who'll end up on new earth. You'll notice now people who don't get parallel worlds, are quite dumb asleep walking dead people.
The guy who replaced Chewy played basketball at the University I live near. I saw him play in person, so weirdly that makes me feel more attached to the Chewy character then any of the others.
kelly's got a crush
I know what you mean Tyson Fury is from just down the road from me & it does help you get behind & root for them knowing they're a local lad,the guys a massive douchebag but he's our douchebag so we want him to knock Wilders head off.
I just imagined there being a movie set on Halloween where a kid in a C3PO mask gets beated up by Daniel's yelling "I AM C3PO" over and over.
I met Anthony Daniels at Star Wars celebration and I remember him being nice for the most part, then again I was 12 years old at the time
Samsung O'Really I had a friend that met him and said he was nice too. I guess he must have good and bad days.
@@Supernautiloid It's almost like he's a real person with feelings and emotions which change, ebb, and flow... and his entire personality isn't defined by a single thing he's kind of anal about.
well maybe that's it you were 12, he didn't wanna be "too" nice, it's ok I'm sure he wanted you to, I know I would have, but I'll be in here, hope he shows, of not tou know what to do.
I met him and had a nice interaction with him too
The fact that anyone could play C-3PO is the very reason he is overly protective about his role.
To WANT to wear the outfit as much as he does, as long as he has been doing it, that's commendable. Everyone can be a jerk behind the scenes at times, that's just people being people, hell Julie Andrews (Mary Poppins, Sound of Muic) she's had accusations of being an ass at times, doesn't make me hate the roles she plays.
Tom Hicks one video is hardly 100% truth on the matter, and all I'm saying is if he wants to do it, let him do it until he absolutely can't put the suit on, or do the voice, then they can just CGI C-3PO from then on, or get another guy. I mean it's not like James Earl Jones can be Vader's voice forever, they can just use all his dialogue and synthetize more in the future, probably.
I mean, is anyone else really trying to fight to get the job of wearing that droid suit hours on end? Let the guy have it, not like it's his actual face on screen.
Marcos Danilo strange that I can separate Daniels off screen behavior about Threepio and the on screen character he plays. It's about time he just voiced him anyway, and just cgi it like 90% of SW is.
Nah, it's the fact that his life has only amounted to playing a shitty android dildo.
The Man From Krypton it's not just him being a jerk behind the scenes he's just a jerk full stop & a thoroughly horrible person to work with hell whilst filming a new hope Kenny Baker saw him on the street on a day off & went to speak to him only to be shouted at & told not to disturb him I mean these guys spent up to 20 hours at a time filming together & he can't even say hello to him.
you want to see how easy it is to emulate c3po, just look at Robot Chicken, the guy they get to voice that (Tom Kane) does a perfect impression
AJ Burdett Even then, Anthony Daniels has voiced C-3PO on Robot Chicken.
*uses Qui gon jinns lightsaber in the beginning
*HAS PURPLE HUE*
It was meant to be pink. I told him Karl the colour it SHOULD be. He fought for pink for... obvious reasons.
-Brad
understandable have a great day
RenzheDude That's Obi Wan's lightsaber design from the prequels though
*obi wan ep. 2 saber
Obi Wan
Karl as C3PO..... I would watch a drunk C3PO wandering around and swearing.
... So... Bender?
An old friend told me a story about meeting him at a convention. Apparently another fan had part of the original C-3PO costume and asked Daniels to sign it. Daniels threw a hissy fit and said that the prop belonged to him, and the fan should hand it over.
A notorious bellend.
Andy Johnson kinda doubt that happened
Andy Johnson sure, that happened
Oh really. How did he get it then?
r/thathappened
Not saying it's proof it didn't happen. But I feel like there would've been some footage or article. But I didn't see anything on Reddit or TH-cam or Google for that matter. Hmmmmmm
In 2016 I met Anthony Daniels at Star Wars Celebration, I was in the queue for his Autograph and present him with a Costuming Club Honorary Membership and when he signed my book. (There is a rumour going about that he wont co sign anything with Kenny Baker) yet he signed my book on the same page as Baker's. The staff on hand had said no photography and forced my mate away from the queue because he was wearing the camera around his neck. Anthony said would you like a photo with the certificate I explained about the photographer being ejected for having a camera he got my mate back and we waited at the side of the booth as he signed a few more autographs and then came over and did 4 photos together.
In the early days he had issues with Star Wars because the credits originally credited C-3P0 as C-3P0 not him so when Mark, Carrie, Peter, Harrison turned up people knew who they were, but he was sidelined.
I know it's an older video now but I would urge you to revisit this video after reading/listening to the autobiography he released in 2019 =) Happy New Year guys
There is only one character's voice that can never be replaced with another actor because of how iconic and well known it is. Of course I am talking about Boba fett
For the scenes where C-3PO is half broken, shouldn't he move differently from how he moves when fully functional?
That's exactly what I thought.
Scooter Campbell well actually it would be for George Lucas to say since he designed the character and the nuances of the character. 🤷♀️
Scooter Campbell "amateur thinking" wow are you trying to sound as douchey as Daniels or what,I've got a feeling that you regularly appear on r/iamverysmart with posts like that.
I saw him at a convention once, and he walked around with his nose in the air the whole time. He didn't even bother to hide his contempt for everyone there.
Joke’s on you I didn’t even know Anthony Daniels was C-3PO
I once got denied an autograph by Anthony Daniels at a Star Wars Celebration. That's not the problem but what it was how he was. Not even a "No" or a "not right now" or "Sorry I don't sign Autographs" just scoffed and walked off. T_T
The fact he said that and then sold signed copies of his book through Waterstones is so hypocritical
Star Wars Monopoly was a BIG deal in my house when I was young. We played it as a family. I miss it.
That lightsaber edit at the beginning was just amazing. That right there made my day.
I can say I met him at Celebration 4 when i got his autograph and he was not a very friendly individual. It was a pretty disappointing experience. At least I have a photo and autograph to remember it.
Met him a few years ago just to get a picture and to sign my star wars poster he was horrible up his own arse he Is only known for star wars for the love of God he's an arse
Daniels is old school Imperial British, he has to suffer in the suit. It's more honorable that way.
“Mark Hamill went to fan conventions. Harrison Ford doesn’t, he’s busy flying helicopters and saving people from fires”
And he hates the franchise
My favorite moment with Ford:
“Are you excited for the new ‘Solo’ movie?”
Harrison Ford: “No.”
Flying planes? Don’t you mean crashing?
Neither of them wanted to be in the new films. But they both did it because they knew the fans would eat them alive.
Daniels was the voice of Legolas in the Ralph Bakshi animated adaptation of The Lord of the Rings (1978)
The actor acts just like C-3PO. He acts like he knows everything and he feels like everyone loves him.
At climax he yells "Only I'm C-3PO"
IM GOING TO CRY 😂😭
At least he was fine with someone else playing Legolas
I could understand a bit more if it was more along the lines of. “I like being in the costume and doing things physically. Recording studios bore me to tears.” Or something along those lines. But from the way it’s been described he seemed to just be a massive pain in the arse.
I think its fine I mean if I played a character as iconic as C-3PO I’d try to play the character as much as possible
You need to cover the beef that Dave prowse had with Lucas over showing his face as Vader. These people just need to accept they were hired as a frame to hang a costume off
Met him at steel city and caught him in an incredibly good mood. He was really nice
What are you talking about Anthony Daniels never going to conventions? Every time there is a Star Wars convention, he’s on the list. He’s at MCM in a few weeks.
That shirt though lol
When I first saw Episode II of Star Wars, I thought all the robots were real, but at the time, I was maybe 8 years old, so how was I supposed to know.
I didn’t know Chad Vader got to be Vader for real that’s so cool 😎 I remember hearing about Chad Vader as a kid but never watched it until recently I went back and started watching it that makes my heart so happy
i heard someone say that being worshipped by Ewoks went to Anthony Daniels head lol 😂
Grant Imahara has played C3PO at events in the past.
i found an ineresting quot from c3po - "it's against my programing to inpersonate a deity."
What was up with 3PO’s red arm he had in the “Force Awakens”. Was there ever given a reason for that? So many unanswered questions!
Yeah, he gets that arm in a comic
In the Visual Dictionary it says it was a sacrifice from another droid. Other than that I have no idea 🤷🏻
Bob The Snail Animations it was in Star Wars Special: C-3PO 1
Brian Reynolds Don’t worry, Anthony Daniels hated it.
Wait didn’t he say that like his arm was stolen by a bandit or something?
usually dont like videos, but that intro was solid gold
He appeared as c-3po on the muppits
"Only iIIIIiiIII Can do it" Well, I didn't know it wasn't him when c3po appeared in Lego Masters.
My mum met him when she was In her 20s and she worked in a swimming pool and C3PO (whos a vegetarian) came up to her as she was cleaning the mirror in the changing room with a spray and asked her “is that good for the environment” and she responded “no but your farts aren’t either” and she turned back around and sprayed the mirror. He just walked off shocked 😂
bull.
in the Phineas and Ferb special C-3PO was voiced by Simon Pegg and I literally had no idea until I looked at the cast list on IMDB to see who was voicing a completely different character (I forget who)
You can take the man out of the suit
*but you can’t take the suit out of the man*
the fact he is a robot means they can say his voice chip or what ever was damaged as an in universe reason for the voice being different
Or because of age it simply got worn down with use and was replaced.
I had forgotten about chad vader! thanks for that nostalgia blast
Personally I would say the most obscure thing he was in was the muppet show when C3-PO briefly showed up for seconds and he still voiced him
i enjoy the fact that the word “nazis” is on karl’s nipple the entire video
Again for the puppetry, he could do reference clips or something. Hell, how about we give him a mo-cap suit, set it so it drives an animation program connected to the puppets' manipulators so it's his movements deciding everything? Or just lie and say we did, he'll bitch either way.
Guy: goes to comic con as C3PO*
Anthony Daniels: It has to be me!
you know what I realize, he is probably so vain about being c3po that you can get him to do anything just by threatening to give the part to anyone else especially someone he probably doesn't care for.
like hey Mr Daniels do you want to do this car commercial? if you don't, we can always get Seth Rogen or someone to be c3po
I really get the feeling that it's about pride, the fact that he was is in a plastic, full-body costume in the desert
The Homer Simpson shirt was perfect!
Danny devito as C3PO
I love it when he wears green shirts in these videos
Are you threatening me master Jedi?
Emperor Palpatine the senate will decide your fate
Someone watching this thinking about making a fan film and advertising a C-3PO role:
"This is where the fun begins"
Matt Sloan is the freakin' best! Blame Society has been a staple of my internet viewing for years!
Best part of this video is the shirt's representation of Homer fading into pop culture
He's probably right. A lot of C3P0 is an extension of his own personality, voice and body language.
I'm sure some could come close enough, but it would never be 100%
I honestly would of been ok with the Rock as C3P0 .
I’m watching this in 2018, I look at the date and it’s wen I turned 13. Hahha how did I not find this on my birthday 7 months ago?! You guys are great.
He's fucking right
It'd be helarious if Andy Circuis gave Anthony Daniels acting tips based on old C-3PO footage.
He's been a toff for decades and I've, not so secretly, wanted someone else to play ThreePO while he lives.
Just to get him out of his own ass.
That was a really good alpha 5 impression.
It's funny hearing that he rarely makes con appearances, because my first convention is MCM London which announced on 4/5/18 (Star Wars day) that Daniels would be appearing as a guest. Not knocking the video, I really enjoyed it, just found it funny
Funny how you actually got the VFX for the saber done really well.
Interestingly enough grant imahara was c3po for a while. It was on his first jobs at industrial light and magic.
Totally forgot about Chad Vader. Fucking loved that skit
Anthony Daniels wanted the check, I can't fault the guy honestly. Why step aside willfully and miss out on all that $$$$$$$$$
Anthony was like
Only I can get my head knoked off properly
I feel like the limitations of the costume would help any person who was in the costume understand the mannerisms of C-3PO.
Love the shirt mate
Andy Sirkis deserves an Oscar for god sakes
I would have been like the guy that does the fucking R-2 whistles is more important than you and write the scene so his mouth literally gets turned off because they have to actually sneak around and on R-2 be back tomorrow, what a dick move.3
You hav nailed it fuckn up the background wiv ur shirt this time Carl xx
8:35, you'd think he'd have seen this clip and learnt that James Earl Jones says "larst" instead of "lahst".
... or to put a glottal stop & crisp "t" between "last" & "time".
I wonder if Hayden Christensen picked up on that.
I've met Anthony Daniels twice at conventions. A man of few words and a bit standoffish with the fans sometimes, yes, but generally a nice guy. And if he thinks that no one can play C-3PO but him, well in my opinion, he's absolutely RIGHT!
There's a really low budget film called I Bought a Vampire Motorcycle that I remember him in but he was a minor character.
Daniels is honestly such a boomer, with a typical boomer mentality. I’m old and worked hard so I deserve everything I want. I’d like to see him try and do this again in 15 years in the next trilogy when he’s pushing 90. You have to let go at some point dude you’re gonna get royalties for the rest of your life regardless.
3:37 Lol that insult tho
C-3PO's right leg is silver
Beat Master32 oh hey, thanks for pointing it out
Maybe in this reality but not in mine.
Mandella....
It took me 5 minutes to realise that his shirt was blending into the green screen.
best shirt for chroma key shenanigans ever
this shirt is perfect
Love the shirt
What a lad
Anthony Daniels is in for a shock when he discovers that he's been replaced by a computer while lying on his deathbed.
For those who don't know, Matt Sloan of Chad Vader fame is now one of the hosts of a really awesome youtube show called Welcome to the Basement. I would highly recommend it!
It’s a pet peeve of mine when people refer to people in costumes, performance capture, or puppetry as “voicing” characters. While they
Do provide voices, there is a huge non-vocal performance element to this kind of work. Andy Serkis didn’t “voice” Gollum; if you’ve seen things he did for that role, I am sure there were days he wished he had. 😅
For legacy characters such as C-3PO, I’d imagine a process similar to the way Muppets change performers could work. The principal performer begins training an understudy, who gradually (over the course of years) begins performing the character in coverage shots, in group scenes, then in an increasing capacity as the principal performer is phased out. In this way, the understudy adopts the majority of the character’s mannerisms, and any change is so gradual it is rarely noticed.
4:25 Suomi mainittu!
I like how the shirt hes wearing today kinda just looks like a ghosty version it looks like hes wearing the words but the shirt exists in the world of chowder.
Anthony Daniels voiced Legolas in the Ralph Bakshi directed animated version of LOTR from the seventies :)
sorry, my last comment was dumb; this video is 6 years old. Damn TH-cam pushing old videos, not that I regret watching it.
At least he was willing to play this character in pretty much everything, like voice acting in games. Other actors would be too “busy” to voice him.
of course that was his only gig.
Anthony Daniels was charging £80 for a signature at Comic-Con London. No one was in line for him
