It's crazy what you can see on TH-cam, for instance the birth of comedy movies with Charlie Chaplin, and Kimmy Robertson in The Last American Virgin, before she played Lucy in Twin Peaks!
It was really interesting to see the fact that Tony Stark's redemption from a broken billionaire to a superhero to be a parallel of Robert's real life acting career.
Kiss Kiss Bang Bang is a great film. Who would've thought that three years after this interview he'd become one of the biggest movie stars in the world
This is RDJ before everyone started treating him like God and before he got the confidence boost. Can see it in his demeanor. Kind of made me connect to that feeling, I mean just the contrast
Yes totally. This was still an unsure time in his career and he had only been out of jail for a few years and hadn't done many movies or interviews at this point. Susan really cleaned him up and turned his life around.
Kiss Kiss Bang Bang is one of my favorite comedy, that's when I first saw Robert. And less than 2 years later he shoot Iron Man in 2007 which changed his life completely and he deserved it.
Val Kilmer was such a brilliant actor I always wonder when it comes to the greats if all the personal flaws allows them to be great or prevented them from being even better maybe a little of both
it's curious to see RDJ JUST BEFORE his comeback year of 2008. From his goatee i can tell this was around the time he shot Zodiac..just before he was cast as Tony Stark and shot Tropic Thunder.
Hold the cactus speech save my life with the addiction of alcohol, i always keep mine close to me, working or busy i forgot to smoke cigarettes but with alcohol addiction that speech and when appears with T-Shirt of Metallica on “The Judge Movie" All with my hands with Metallica makes all sense with the alcohol addiction with vodka of James Hetfield, mixing with pills too and your movies help me a lot, thanks R.D
I know this was like a hundred years ago but man, people really treated LGBT stuff like it was worse than murder to portray in media. Always asking actors, particularly male actors, "how was it, have you ever done this before, what was it like?!" bro it's lips what do you mean
Downey fans just in case you haven't heard... God so loved the world He gave His son Jesus that whoever believes in Jesus will have everlasting life. John 3:16 Please believe and repent from your sin today. Eternity in heaven should not be taken lightly, dont be left behind. Love Y'all
It's wild to see RDJ doing interviews during his comeback and prior to becoming the face of the most successful movie franchise in the world.
I came here to say the same thing . It’s hard for me to unsee Tony Starks .
@@beauphomasterpiece3795 *Tony Stank
I see Iron Man but I try to forget the Avengers... ^

Just cause HE DOESN'T ACT . He acts the same in every single movie he is on
His smile when Conan mentions his marriage was so sweet

Honestly that probably made his performance so believable, I his art reflecting life right there
@@IsabelS_Fuyu probably

He was pretty big around Chaplin in '92, just drugged it all away.

Yea you can really tell how on guard he is here.
@@clockworkNate more unsure really

Kilmer story starts at 3:50
He's always been a consistently great actor.
“I thought I was past all manner of trauma.”
The audience should have laughed at that. 🤣
LOL, too soon.
Really cool to see these older clips in High Definition. Most people didn’t have HD TV’s when this originally aired.
Conan actually worked with Robert Downey Jr at SNL, Adam Sandler said Robert was a fan of Conan’s sketch writing
Kiss Kiss Bang Bang is one of my favorite comedy, that's when I first saw Robert. And less than 2 years later he shoot Iron Man in 2007 which changed his life completely and he deserved it.
Damn who thought his career was gonna take such a drastic turn 🔥
Robert Downey Jr. is a living legend 🙌🏼
Years later Duran Duran played his birthday party , 40 years old and the best was still to come
Just love RDJ, and he went from broken, to the best actor in the world.
Val Kilmer was such a brilliant actor
I always wonder when it comes to the greats if all the personal flaws allows them to be great or prevented them from being even better
maybe a little of both
You're overthinkin it, every actors drug flaws, that's just them being themselves for instance, Robin Williams!!!!
Who is worse, Val Kilmer or Brad Pitt? I don't know, they're both equally bad.
@@nonenoneonenonenone what the heck do you mean?! They're both great.. I love Val more but Pitt is okay
That movie revived Downey's career.
“Man everybody’s gay once in a while”
Conan looks so pale, he should get his blood work done. I think he needs more iron, man.
Nicely done, you win
Stop.
all the iron went straight into his hair.
05 and he's rocking the Iron man Goatee years before release in 2008.
Around 2 years before the filming for Iron Man began in 2007.
it's curious to see RDJ JUST BEFORE his comeback year of 2008.
From his goatee i can tell this was around the time he shot Zodiac..just before he was cast as Tony Stark and shot Tropic Thunder.
!!!!omg finally! Somehow it feels like they are testing each other lol , Hope someday Robert will be on the podcast too
He's was 40. That was 50 years ago.
50een*
Damn today he looks good for 90…
Kiss kiss bang bang is one of the funniest movies ever made. You should watch it if you haven’t seen it.
My Val Kilmer alert got me here.. Thank you for this gem.. More val Kilmer please!
i quit smoking *looks at audience*
Kiss Kiss Bang Bang is an awesome movie. First time I saw RDJ.
Well shit, now we need to see some Val Kilmer.
He was absolutely brilliant as Wayne in Natural Born Killers and Paul in The Zodiac. Also Weird Science…..nuff said. And tropic thunder duh
I'm gonna say this on every video I watch of RDJ, I love him and I want to marry him, he is the man of my dreams he's perfect.
HE IS THE BEST ❤️
I like it better when Tony Stark had this haircut
One of the greatest comebacks 💥
3:32 "hit it Max!"...*1 single snare hit* lmao 🤣 😂 🤣😂💀
I loved the Sherlock Holmes movies as well.
there will be other invitations from Duran Duran... get over it. So good to see you RDJ . Stay well and happy. Blessings on your family forever.
I was thinking he looks so young here
RDJ is more like Peter dinklage from game of thrones
This guy would make a great superhero someday.....
Probably snaps and dies in the last movie.....
He looks awesome .....
this is what it feels like to be early
This just messed with my perception of time so much. This video was posted a day ago and then they were like RDJ just turned 40 and I was like huhhhh¿
Kiss Kiss Bang Bang is way better movie than any childist marvel movies
This was 17 years ago
19 years ago (almost)
Downey is already buff here, you can see it in the shoulders and hes got the Stark facial hair, hmmm.
A Stewing Grandma haha..
Very wise... but also kind of condescending.
Pre-Iron Man days lol
I'd have been, and still would be, pissed at George.
So nice he had time away from being an avenger to talk to Conan
Ok who thought he looked like *Lin Manuel Miranda* ?
more like a taller Peter Dinklage.
This dude looks like the skinny Silent Bob.
He was a lot less Tony Stark-ish back then
I hope to see him as Iron Man in movies again.
If you've seen Endgame you'll know why that won't happen.
@@noneofyourbusiness1998 If you’ve read the comic books you know why it could. Ironheart’s holographic A.I. mentor, anyone?
@@Evol_lov3 I haven't read the comics. 😅
@@noneofyourbusiness1998 Yes, I've seen it already. I'm just saying, hahaha.
@@Evol_lov3 Exactly. 👍🏻

he has Tony Stark manner
Tony Stark is RDJ in real life. Same person. Same personality.
RDJ is a national treasure... Marvel can you hook it up to bring him back?
Move on ffs. He wants to do other things
Good news....
Rip rdj
I tried quitting, but I like it too much.
I'm not sure how I feel about him joining my family.
What year is this clip from?
'05
More proof he is Tony irl
I wonder why he didn't appear on the show later on
This was after or before the prison ?
Nice
what year?
11/10/05
I know this was like a hundred years ago but man, people really treated LGBT stuff like it was worse than murder to portray in media. Always asking actors, particularly male actors, "how was it, have you ever done this before, what was it like?!" bro it's lips what do you mean
Yeah I also noticed that. Treated just the idea of 2 men kissing each other like the plague.
Dang....how long before or after the first Ironman was this?
3 years before
@@willfeinberg979 Thanks.
2 years before the filming of Iron Man though....
And yeah, 3 years before Iron Man released.

Iron man 🔥🔥🔥
Who is this guy? Looks alot like the guy playing Tony Stark/Iron Man

God, the guy who gave us cancer. And preachers in internet comments.
COB gets along with RDJ so well. Not like other host.
lol whos the other host
