I saw Tom Cruise in Top Gun when I was in 7th grade. He was the biggest star at that time. I now have 2 grandkids and he is still making the biggest movies in the world. That is insane!
one of the top 5 Drama series of all time. definitely my favorite. it was so well written. i could watch the entire series, all 7 seasons, beginning to end, at least once a year.
I noticed that whenever Tom Cruise interacts with someone; he places the spotlight on them and really makes them feel... valuable and worthy. For that, he has my respect.
I have no idea about scientology. How exactly is Tom cruise exploiting them? If he is recruiting them and making them follow a set of rules... then thats exactly what every religion does...
I figuratively bumped into Tom Cruise at an MI premier in London a number of years ago. I was walking through a tunnel and when I came out on the other side, Tom Cruise was out there signing autographs, taking selfies with fans. He must have stayed out there for a solid hour and a half. Didn't leave until he saw virtually everyone. I have only respect for him.
If there's one thing about Tom Cruise, it's that he takes promoting his movies very seriously. That's the one thing that really sets him apart (and a few other celebrities as well) from a lot of other stars is that he recognizes that his fame relies on his fans, so he definitely makes sure to be out there for his fans.
I have to say this is unequivocally one of the best sequels of a movie I have ever seen! I was glued from beginning to end…didn’t miss a single second! 👏🏾
Whatever Tom has going on in his personal life, his professional life is what other actors care about. His (Tom) craft, dedication, precision, expectations, is all quite well known at this point. He wants the best, he seeks the best, and he demands the best because he doesn't just put his money where his mouth is, he puts his body where his mouth is. You could say Tom Cruise is the actor/actress version of John Wick when it comes to film making. He is sheer will personified. For that, you have to at least respect him on a professional level.
@@TheJpep2424 To us, maybe. But you can't deny the legacy on filmmaking that Tom is going to leave behind. It's not a surprise that most legends had insane home lives.
This is a feedback that really warm my heart I'm very grateful, thank you so much for supporting and prayers for my career please where are you watching from
Jerry Maguire and Vanilla Sky are incredible performances. Top Gun 1 is a fun guilty pleasure if you haven’t checked it out. And Edge of Tomorrow with Emily Blunt and Oblivion
sure Tom Cruise is amazing , but lets not undervalue Jon Hamm. Mad Men is still one of the greatest dramas in tv history. phenomenal show, and he's an amazing actor.
Being GenX and a teenager in the early 80s, when we saw Risky Business, we bought all in with Tom Cruise. That film was an 80s suburban fairy tale for so many teenage males at that time. And we all wore Ray Bans after that…😎
I went to the film out of the blue, didn't know who is in it, when I saw Jon I was like maaaan what a perfect fit! This is really who you would want to play that role today.
this is the second story i've heard about TOM showing up at someone's house out of nowhere to watch football..i think his childhood was so dysfunctional that he looks for regular moments to just relax
Always loved *all* of his acting and yet oddly surprised that with every interview I see with Hamm, finding him increasingly respectable, likeable, and loveable as a person. Not at all sure why I'm surprised.
Loved this. John played the part of Cyclone so well I'd say he was the perfect casting. That said the whole film is built on perfect casting which is what makes it so good.
Really? My image of him is completely ruined…. In fact all I see now is little Tommy cruise jumping up & mounting hamm who’s waiting oh so impatiently on ALL FOURS!! BAHAHA
Im a fan of his movies but the guy is the leader of an awful cult that defrauds, tortures and harasses its members. He wouldn’t be invited to any of my parties thats for sure
I was a late bloomer to Top Gun. Only because I was born in Sept. 85, and the film was released in 86. So I didn't get to actually see it and take interest until mid-90s. But I get where he's coming from about watching the first film with your parents and then watching this movie. Especially now that I'm a mom and my kids got to see this. It's almost on level of Jurassic Park for me. Seeing JW Dominion with the OG crew and watching it with my kids. It gives all the feels. Love it. =)
I can see the cops pulling Jon Hamm over for hand-holding his phone while driving and him explaining to the cops...."Umm really guys? You have NO idea how important this call is." Haha.

Tom Cruise is literally so famous that he's famous to famous people.
Um…all the famous are famous to each other
Lol, meta-famous.
Scary famous...
@@almightywhitey6955 there is a difference between a movie actor and a movie star.
@@picanha694 hmmmm. As profound as that is, I believe I’m starting to grasp it…thank u!

Same. 30 years sure flew by haha
What a world
so you are 49 ??
Grandfather in your 40s?! wow lol
@@BarcaAlmighty Not that weird. Especially since he's in his late 40s.
Jon Hamm is such a gentleman, and he had a great presence in Maverick. Great actor. His role in Mad Men left a mark for television.
one of the top 5 Drama series of all time. definitely my favorite. it was so well written.
i could watch the entire series, all 7 seasons, beginning to end, at least once a year.
Although he had no biceps
He was really good in Baby Driver too
Hamm was awesome in The Town, as well!
And Tag!
I noticed that whenever Tom Cruise interacts with someone; he places the spotlight on them and really makes them feel... valuable and worthy. For that, he has my respect.
Ya except for the people he exploits in scientology. I don't think he is as nice to them.
@@chadpescod-realtor3308 It's basic psychology, hey - he's actively recruiting famous people.
I have no idea about scientology. How exactly is Tom cruise exploiting them? If he is recruiting them and making them follow a set of rules... then thats exactly what every religion does...
He's just manipulating people. He simply gives them the attention & affirmation they crave, then he owns them.
Yes, he is someone that sincerely enjoys seeing others thrive. He's such an amazing person!

He respects his fans, that’s why you have no problem giving respect back … nice story thanks for sharing
Ya it really helps me overlook the fact he's in a cult that exploits childrenn
Figuratively? So, not really?

That's the one thing that really sets him apart (and a few other celebrities as well) from a lot of other stars is that he recognizes that his fame relies on his fans, so he definitely makes sure to be out there for his fans.
@@TalkingHands308, one thing he learned from SRK very well.
John Hamm is an amazing actor and so humble and kind. He deserved to be in one of the best movies of the year, and arguably in the decade.
Like him or not, Tom Cruise is the biggest movie star in the World. Look at that guy's catalog of hits
O cara tem mais de 40 filmes em 40 anos de carreira. Ele é show 🤩
I think his biggest asset is his devotion to a role - he'll learn how to do pretty much anything if the movie calls for it.
I’m not saying he has a lot of “hits” but The Rock is probably the only other big movie star besides Tom Cruise.
@@choppersman08 The Rock is hot at the moment. To be fair to Tom he’s been killing it for decades.
I prefer Kevin Costner and George Clooney 🤣
"Well then the answer is yes." Loved how Hamm played it in Maverick.
There’s only one possible thing you can think about John Hamm after watching this: What a good guy he is.
@Frank Dux So two things now.
I agree
And how hung.
@@CS_Sardine lol
Why?
I have to say this is unequivocally one of the best sequels of a movie I have ever seen! I was glued from beginning to end…didn’t miss a single second! 👏🏾
It's Terminator 2 or Aliens level shit.
JEEZ ITS SO FREAKIN GOOD
Which movie are you talking about.
@@vineetkamble TG2
@@_koschwarz eeeeehhhhhh idk if its on that level.. its good but idk if its THAT good.. and im a massive Top GUN fan

his personal life in a trainwreck. Career is secondary.
@@TheJpep2424 that may be true, but i didn't spend $18 to go to the movies to watch his personal life drama.
Perfectly said.
If only he wasn’t a batshit crazy cult leader.
@@TheJpep2424 To us, maybe. But you can't deny the legacy on filmmaking that Tom is going to leave behind. It's not a surprise that most legends had insane home lives.
Tom Cruise is not only famous, he is mysterious, which creates a big appeal in many people
When he said he was 14/15 when Top Gun got premiered shocked me for a second, because I thoughtJohn is older than Tom. But no, Tom is 9 years older 😂
“Tom Cruise and Mom Cruise.” 🤣😂🤣
I wish _I_ was there.
Tom wasn’t wrong. Mad Men is a top show! 😉 Top Gun is top movie 😉
I love that he wanted the part, regardless of the pay. I totally understand. It’s Top Gun!!!!! Who WOULDN’T have done the same?!?!
Tom Cruise & Mom Cruise.😁😁😁
John Hamm is a humble, down-to-earth, straight-up person. Good to know. Meeting Tom & Momma Cruise would have been a hoot too. 👍
This is a feedback that really warm my heart I'm very grateful, thank you so much for supporting and prayers for my career please where are you watching from
Ya it almost makes me forget that Tom is the world's most famous cult member.
He's a celebrity amongst celebrities. He's that good! :)
Jon Hamm is such a funny guy, so different from Don Draper. People should offer him more movies.
Draper is waaaay more interesting
@@almightywhitey6955 It's just a character, you know.
@@eivind105 missed the point
@@eivind105 u missed the point
Don Drapper was an OG
What a humble person, immediately relatable.
I am NOT a Tom Cruise fan and had no interest in seeing this movie and after finally being talked into it, I freakin LOVE it!!!!
If you haven’t seen Tropic Thunder, I highly recommend it. One of his best performances and I think he steals the show in it.
He has some good movies, you are missing out.
Jerry Maguire and Vanilla Sky are incredible performances. Top Gun 1 is a fun guilty pleasure if you haven’t checked it out. And Edge of Tomorrow with Emily Blunt and Oblivion
Then you should try some of his good movies.
@@swirlingchi gotta add Magnolia 1999 film with Tom Cruise… he deserves an Oscar for that one
We are seriously missing out on Jon Hamm being Archer in a live-action movie....
He would be perfect!
Then he would seriously be in the.....
“DANGER ZONE”!!!
Yes we know he's Hella funny
JUST THE TIP, BEARDSLEY MCTURBANHEAD!
John was excellent in it ..he was so good at being annoyed at Maverick and now he forever be in the top gun universe
*Jon
Europe
Tom has been a leading man for 40 - forty - years. Wow.
sure Tom Cruise is amazing , but lets not undervalue Jon Hamm. Mad Men is still one of the greatest dramas in tv history. phenomenal show, and he's an amazing actor.
Hamm is very memorable in Top Gun Maverick.
@@mariannefong4200 i agree! he played that role perfectly.
I don't know what it is about John Hamm, but I can listen to him talk for hours. He speaks in such a simple and reserved manner that reels you in.
Excellent voice. He should narrate books. Perfect voice. Cool, strong, calming. Robert WAGNER type of voice.
Just watched the new top gun last night , I was absolutely not disappointed and enjoyed every minute
Such a classy guy. Mad Men is an exquisite and sublime show, largely due to Hamm and Slattery.
I think Matthew Weiner might have had something to do with it as well.
It’s a masterpiece. One of the greatest action pictures of all-time. I got to see the original Top Gun on the silver screen a few months ago.
Tom cruise well respected in the industry.
John seems to be in it for the right reasons. Awesome. Love that. And Tom Cruise, too.
I always loved Jon Hamm and i love him even more now. Respect.
Instant fan of John Hamm as a person after watching this.
Ditto
Me, too.
Great story time. Loved Jon Hams portrayal of the 3 star admiral. Top gun maverick was just brilliant.
Tom Cruise is a living legend!
This is absolutely incredible. I’ve never heard a guest be able to talk this long without interruption. What happened?
Tom cruise is at the top, of being the biggest superstar.. Legend he is
Who’s also 5’6 in person & likes men 6’0 or taller in his bed….BAHAHA
@@almightywhitey6955 It shows you that stuff doesn't matter when it comes to being the best professional.
I loved Jon Hamm in Curb Your Enthusiasm. Great talent for comedy.
Shows you how humble Jon Hamm being starstruck by another celebrity!
Jon Hamm, a bigger legend in the making.
J.H. is one of those actors that makes all projects better when he participates.
Tom brought his mom along so everyone would believe it's actually him, not a look-a-like.
But has anyone seen his mom??
It was really Tom, but his mom was an impersonator.
Oh & because he actually has NO FRIENDS!
@@almightywhitey6955 Actually there's a sofa distributor who's quite fond of him.
That wasn't his real mom, it was his scientology mom.
"Tom Cruise arguably the most famous person on the planet"
Jon Hamm
Tom Cruise is the final and largest movie star
You are absolutely correct!!!
Largest. Not final.
@@PM2024-Leo is the final movie star. there are no movie stars in this new generation
@@NoNameBrand450 leo is not as famous as tom cruise prolly tom holland is more famous then leonardo dicapirio rn.
Crazy when you realize Tom Cruise is a decade older than Jon Hamm
And so much gayer! BAHAHA
@@almightywhitey6955 not as weird as you though
I was half expecting him to say Tom showed up with a pizza and a case of beer. That would have been epic!
Just watched 'Confess, Fletch' and seeing Hamm and Slattery together again was awesome.
Worthwhile?
Being GenX and a teenager in the early 80s, when we saw Risky Business, we bought all in with Tom Cruise. That film was an 80s suburban fairy tale for so many teenage males at that time. And we all wore Ray Bans after that…😎

Hamm being like I don't care if they want to pay me with chewing gum or beer or sandwiches.... I'm doing it or you're all fired
Lol.. pretty much
HE WAS JUST SO GRATEFUL AND THAT IS A BEAUTIFUL CHARACTER TRAIT
It was great seeing him in this. He Rocks
Stars geeking onTom Cruise - i love it haha.
I love how Tom Cruise can leave other famous celebrities starstruck. LOL.
this is the second story i've heard about TOM showing up at someone's house out of nowhere to watch football..i think his childhood was so dysfunctional that he looks for regular moments to just relax
Maybe he just wants to hang out with people sometimes, why would his childhood have anything to do with it?
"His childhood was so dysfunctional" -- What do you know that we don't? Does it take one to know one? 😂
Nice projection. Touch some grass please, I beg of you
May be likes people and football
Why do you say his childhood was dysfunctional
There should really be an Eric the Actor clip today. It's the 20 year anniversary of his first call into the show.
Ack ack
Javier?
John Hamm is a great guest. Great storyteller.
*Jon
He had big shoes to fill (Viper's) and did just that with his own flair. Perfection.
Always loved *all* of his acting and yet oddly surprised that with every interview I see with Hamm, finding him increasingly respectable, likeable, and loveable as a person. Not at all sure why I'm surprised.

Tom and Mom Cruise!!! TC is a living legend
Tom Cruise is a living legend.
very cool how great actors feel about Tom, its just cool even they can get really star struck seeing the GOAT of male actors lol
With respect: Mr. Stern - Howard is king of the waves! Mr. Stern, if you have the desire and drive - please continue - you Sir are exceptional!!
A couple years ago Hamm ate lunch at a restaurant my friend worked at. Hamm tipped everyone there $100.
BECAUSE HE HAS A KIND HEART AND HE IS VERY HUMBLE
Absolutely love Mad Men , most of us know exactly how Tom feels about it too
Eric the Actor's 20 year first call anniversary, TODAY September 19th 2022. Eric the giant, Eric the legend :) :)
Jon Hamm is The Man!
Tom Cruise is so famous that I can’t imagine him ringing a doorbell.
A good one 😂
TOM CRUISE = LEGEND
Tom Cruise =leading member of criminal cult.
Im a fan of his movies but the guy is the leader of an awful cult that defrauds, tortures and harasses its members. He wouldn’t be invited to any of my parties thats for sure
Mickey rourke : I disagree
Tom Cruise = an actor in the movie Legend (1985)
freakshow legend

It's fun to see people genuinely happy and excited about something as simple & cool as meeting a hero movie star.
Tom Cruise: I liked that show.
(10 years later, Tom is playing the lead role)
At any given moment, Tom Cruise has to be somewhere.
Jon held his own in Maverick
Great job!
I can see the cops pulling Jon Hamm over for hand-holding his phone while driving and him explaining to the cops...."Umm really guys? You have NO idea how important this call is." Haha.
tom cruise says the same to all actors - i love your show, even though he might not have seen it ever
Pretty loveable guy jon is
Did you know he sexually assaulted a male classmate in college
I just watched Hamm in "Confess Fletch" and it was great all the way through!
Tom cruise is the greatest movie star of all time. He’s also maybe the last movie star.
Thank you for the video!😜👍❤
The Tom Cruise intensity always gets mentioned
Love Jon Hamm!
Hamm plays the perfect antagonist in the sequel.
"Tom wants you and you only....says he can't see anyone else playing the typical shmuck better than you....you in?" lol
Top Gun Maverick, great movie. Hamm was excellent.
Finally, Howard lets someone speak.
That is such a cool story! I loved Mad Men, loved Top Gun 2.
"Mom Cruise" is perfect lolol😂
This is good bro🎶 really enjoyed watching 😎
Very cool interview! :-)
good reaction on his part. fast thinking. make it happen
The Mom addition is amazing
That was wholesome AF
I like this Stern. Listens more.
Best family movie that I have seen in 5-7 yrs.
great movie, and he was so intense in the movie, great casting choice
Love John Hamm. Very talented
