It wasn't an awkward question. There are many writers who absolutely need to at least a rough outline to help them know where they want their story to go and their characters to end up. Some writers, like Clancy or King, just make up interesting characters, think up interesting situations, and develop the story by the seat of the pants. The latter fascinates people who have it drilled in their minds that they need an outline, including me. He wants to know who he does it, but like many successful pantsers, he just... gets it, to the point that he doesn't need to care about it. That's amazing in my book.
I was obsessed with Tom Clancy's work growing up. Especially the Jack Ryan series, a huge inspiration to me. I was really sad when he passed, what a great talent!
I know right ? Plus I'm sure he would call Ubisoft out for what they are doing From ruining series like Rainbow Six To slapping his name on everything (like "Tom Clancy's XDefiant")
@@OperatorMax1993 Oh the fact that his name was being abused for an ungodly amount of profit, with no regards for quality, would absolutely warm his Reaganite heart.
4 months to write something as intricate and complex as Rainbow Six yet George Martin can't finish one book a decade. We miss you Tom Clancy you were the Tolkien of the political and covert war genre.
@@TheEFedsAreComin they all were good especially patriot games and clear and present danger. Thankfully you're in the minority because everyone else seemed to enjoy them.
I don't think, there has ever a game made based on his books which have followed the book's plot accurately. even the Splinter Cell games uses different plots. and Rainbow Six, as you know is a FPS co-op, instead of following the story of the character John Clark.... it's such a shame though, the books has a great potential, (they have better plot and universe building than whatever ubisoft has did with their games so far) they are filled with thrilling espionage stories. adapting them into the video game format would be a great achievement. they could directly competition with Metal Gear series. sadly Ubisoft has no brain, they just want to do quick cash grab in the name of Tom Clancy
He spent thousands of hours with military officers and intelligence specialists to get a deeper understanding of the military in just about every regard. He was literally a military subject matter expert that happened to be good at writing fictional military thrillers.
Rainbow Six is my all-time favorite book. I still have the copy I bought when I was 13 and I've re-read it more times than I can recall. I recently started re-reading it and I'm shocked at how well it's held up over 20 years later. Also "You let your characters do your thinking for you" that's the single most concise way you could think of to write a good story. It's that simple but also that difficult
In Rainbow Six’s case it actually makes sense. It’s a string of operations that are strung together. It’s not bad by any means, but any of the operations in the book could be excused without it hurting the greater plot with the exception of the final op.
8:41 Fast forward to 2021 and we finally got a Without Remorse movie. Shame that it was nowhere close to the level of quality that the earlier movies based on Tom Clancy books were like The Hunt for the Red October and Clear and Present Danger. The novel Without Remorse deserved much better.
Interviewer: Tom why this book Tom: just cause Interviewer: why just cause Tom: I dunno just cause you ever picked up a 6 iron over a 5 iron its just cus it felt right!
It's definitely one of his most free-flowing and fun books to read. Didn't quite have the same level of techno-storytelling or depth of his best books. It was just a bunch of guys going on a bunch of missions. But it's a very nice read.
It was very interesting to meet Tom Clancy in person shortly after I returned from Desert Storm. It was even more interesting when I had called him up on the phone and talked with him a couple of years earlier. As a result of that conversation, I knew that the basic premise of Cardinal of the Kremlin was focused on SDI before the book actually came out.
No... Tom is a little off base here.... most of the time we call them snake eaters because of a little annual training called Cobra Gold. Held in secret thailand jungles.... google it
@@billysm00th Actually no. The nickname "Snake Eaters" is from Vietnam. The Green Berets developed a love-and-hate relationship with the nickname afterwards because it reminded them of the indisciplined cowboys the US Army Special Forces had back in "Nam".
Tom Clancy seriously helped me figure out the kind of stories I wanna tell, and while other authors helped me figure out my style of writing them, he is and will always be my greatest inspiration.
One of - if not - my favorite Tom Clancy books , the video game was a real breakthrough, how good was late nineties early 00 literally eating all his books … that was a good time
I would have liked to hear Clancy's take on America and the global situation today. It uncanny how his novels spoke of situations we are seeing now. His legacy is just being slightly mirrored by the media bearing his name now. Really would have loved to hear his views
lol this interviewer is working hard to hold up the conversation, it always surprises me when writers say so little but yet have so much to say in their books.
It's amazing how he doesn't write outlines, I absolutely need at least a rough understanding of where my characters are going to end up. This guy knows his stuff.
Grew up playing the games but I only read his early works when I was young. Came across this book when I was in prison & never realized Rainbow was actually from his books (since none of the other Tom Clancy games are directly derived from his works).
I am in my thirties. Still reading hella lots of books but especially disturbed by the fact that i binged on Tom's books when I was between ten yrs to about 17 yrs. Something was wrong with me cos now I struggle with his books.
Glad he got into video games. This was the first book of his I read, and it’s because I was into the games. Even the Jack Ryan movies didn’t get me into the books. I also like the books by other authors. Just finished Ghost Recon Wildlands. Was looking for something along those lines so now I’m reading Without Remorse.
'What do ya mean did I ride it? Of course I rode it. I rode it in three months! You lookin' at me? You schmuck.....' [taking a sip of carbonated water] 🖋
That is interesting how Clancy tells about terrorist threat as a minor thing for contemporary United States just three years before the 9/11. The event that pulled the country into the conflict lasting for decades, cost zillions of dollars and lots and lots and lots of lost human lives.
You are 100% right it’s super interesting here his pretty mainstream take on terror from the pre-9/11 world. And wonder how his opinions would have changed Post 9/11. But no one could have predicted a terror attack like that at the time. It was bombs, car bombs, grenades, and hostage taking. No one had ever thought to use an airplane as the weapon. In hind sight yeah we see it as an obvious next step, but back then no one would have thought like that. Other then bin Laden. And it changed our world sadly.
@@tswims92 Totally disagree. The possibility of massive terror event was well known and elaborated in mass media and most probably in the agency studies. It was deemed "less probable", but the threat itself was there. It was connected to terrorists gaining access to "special materials" like nuclear devices, radioactive material, chemical weapons, dangerous biological agents, etc. But destroying a skyscraper by means of explosives, mechanical force and/or fire was quite obvious too. Even WTC as a targeting by islamic terrorist group was nothing new. 1993 WTC bombing was a failed attempt to do exactly the same thing. Airplane was just a tool.

This kind of time capsules are very informative and shiny like a mirror. Now someone just needs to learn from history. Archeologist, History Teacher and other kind of past experts for president
It's not that Tom Clancy brought a different approach to view national security & naval strategy, it's that he found (like I did during my time) that USN officers corps suffers from a seriously pathetic lack of intellectual discourse. This is because the USN is run by engineers.
@@tsoii Hes also had nothing to do with the games that have his name on them since 2000. The original Ghost Recon is the last game he had any hand in. All he did was write the basic plot before Ubisoft bought the studio.
Writing was a job for him not a passion. This totally comes across in this interview. He's very matter of fact - unlike someone such as Stephen King who will write books about writing itself.
Without Remorse and Rainbow Six are my top favorite Jack Ryanverse books. I’ve just always liked Clark better. He’s got a pretty colorful background compared to Boy Scout Jack Ryan. If Ryan is Superman, the paragon of virtue who does no wrong, then Clark is Batman. He’s doing the dirty work in the shadows. That would definitely explain it for me.

When was this interview conducted and aired?

Fucking seriously. First two minutes is the interviewer not understanding how art is created.

Me to! I have all of his books up to the bear and the dragon and a few of his Op-Center books!
I am reading Patriot Games at the moment
You think he died of natural causes? 🤣
Just as I wanted to get his view on the war in ukraine I read this.
wow. If this man was still alive, just imagine the stories he can come up with in this day in age.
I think in the current climate SJWs would try to chew him up...

From ruining series like Rainbow Six

Lord Chanka isn't present in the book. So I give it 9/10
Rip Tom Clancy but guaranteed if he knew Tachanka he would love him definitely
This interview hits home the fact that those who grew up during the Cold War had a very different outlook on geopolitics than we do today.
it's coming back full circle now with Russia's expansion
Fascinating how a man with no military training, can know so much intricate details of the governments inner workings
He was a officer in military and its not that his books games always had a anti illuminate vibe
@@paulthepsngamer4042 ...No he wasn't. Clancy served in his college ROTC detachment, but poor vision kept him out of the military.

Most good authors dont talk about their books during interviews.

He probably can’t generate ideas that , he did say it comes from his characters....
"You know your characters, they do the thinking for you."
Sound writing advice.

True. Rogue Spear was the best RB6 game by far. A true masterpiece.

Such a smart and talented guy. Went too early
The reason why Rainbow Six is for real, thank you Mr Clancy.🙌👍👏
wish tom did more interviews its interesting how he thinks.

It's not that Tom Clancy brought a different approach to view national security & naval strategy, it's that he found (like I did during my time) that USN officers corps suffers from a seriously pathetic lack of intellectual discourse.
This is because the USN is run by engineers.

Without Remorse and Rainbow Six are my top favorite Jack Ryanverse books. I’ve just always liked Clark better. He’s got a pretty colorful background compared to Boy Scout Jack Ryan. If Ryan is Superman, the paragon of virtue who does no wrong, then Clark is Batman. He’s doing the dirty work in the shadows. That would definitely explain it for me.

Of the book? Or the games? If you're talking about the games, which one? Be more specific.
I totally get why Tom Clancy felt that Without Remorse was one of his favorite books. The film is so terrbile that he must be rolling in his grave.
