Probably. But those awards are not about being the best at acting or having to do with acting. Those awards, for the winners, are more about campaigning. How much money you can throw at the award and how much ass kissing you can do to get the award. Additionally, the so-called "red carpet" is nothing more than a living billboard. It is an ad(advertisement) runway, where the actors' bodies are the commercial space. This is how it has been during my entire 41(going on 42) years of life in this world. If you think, or thought, the awards shows are anything other than that, you are an ignorant and naive fool.
Crowe didn’t disappear. He got old and instead of killing himself to stay in shape and play the aged action star like Sly Stallone or Harrison Ford, he instead decided to let time work its natural process and now he plays stockier middle-aged blokes in mid-budget dramas. He’s very much still around. He also seems a lot mellower and happier in interviews now than he did 20 years ago fwiw.
Sly Stallone will probably live longer than you or I, as will Arnie... but hell Harrison Ford doesn't do ANYTHING and is just a slim old man. same with Bruce Willis. not sure why you wanted to compare Rocky+Rambo with Han Solo+Indiana Jones...
@@andrewcutler1380 I know the point of your comment was about Russel Crowe, but I'm going to do a 180 again back to Harrison Ford... when they made Kingdom of the Crystal Skull he fit perfectly into the same costume from The Last Crusade. Probably slimmer, but same costume. Google it. I was simply pointing out that actors are just human beings. some stay the same... some don't. Russel Crowe did some body weight transformations... and is now comfortable where he is. that's cool.
Harrison Ford hasn't done anything credible since the 2000s, nowadays he only work for a paycheck. (with the only exception of Blade Runner 2049, that was the best work he did in years)
Greatest achievement is still donating the proceeds of his divorce auction to get a koala chlamydia hospital named after John Oliver. Game, set, match.
Yes we just watched him in Road Rage ,He was in the truck threateningly ,he was unrecognizable, l thought right away he looked and sounded like John Goodman ,He can’t play the romantic love interest as he looks now ,sorry !,! No mention of R C putting loads of weight on ,
Gladiator one of my favorite films. L.A confidential is also really good. Love the Russell Crowe fightin round the world South Park episode lol and unhinged is a nice comeback for him if he stays with big screen
His peak was in my opinion from 1997-2008, around that time. Gladiator & A Beautiful Mind are obviously really great performances, but i loved him in Body of Lies... he played that douche-CIA guy so good.
My dad used to work in the Naval Base in Portsmouth England, he used to show people around the HMS Victory historic warship, Russel Crow was one of the tourists he showed round this was just after Russell had starred in Master And Commander , app he was a lovely attentive bloke who was really down to earth , left a big tip and offered to buy my father a beer, totally top bloke app..
the worst is when people live stream suicide. some worthless soul did this on twitch recently. blew his brains out on stream. hopefully, he didn't traumatize any young kids
@@tnmrvc I agree for both a Russel Crowe and Denzel Washington movie. I know its not a popular opinion, but if it were to get the remake or years after sequel like Blade Runner, I would probably be willing to give it a pass if setup properly with the right people behind it.
Crowe IS Australian. Ask the man himself, even he will tell you he identifies himself as such!! He calls himself Australian in most, if not all, his interviews and Lives in Australia.
@@TMan-77 He was born in New Zealand though.His cousins even played Cricket for the New Zealand national cricket team Martin Crowe and Jeff Crowe.His wife is also new Zealander.

One movie you forgot to list "Proof of Life" in 2000 with Meg Ryan. I believe this is when they met and started dating. Oh yeah, future WTF happened to Meg Ryan? Also State of Play in 2009 with Ben Affleck.
@@baronvg That was a surprise to me Proof of Life was not there. There was a death on the set and also the affair that affected Dennis Quaid and Meg Ryan's marriage soon after the movie was done. Yeah, that should of had some kind of bookmark in the 2000s. That is when Russel Crowe's stock went up after Gladiator.
I became a Russell Crowe fan wayyyyy back -- The Proof, The Crossing, and later, The Quick and the Dead, Virtuosity, and LA Confidential (I may be the only person who did't like the movie) but he always drew me in. (Not to mention Thirty Odd Foot of Grunt.) Mystery, Alaska came out, and was good - but then, in the same year, The Insider was released, and Gladiator a year later. A star was born. The Insider is probably my favorite RC movie. The story, the acting, the direction, the soundtrack (Lisa Gerrard and Pieter Bourke) was so gorgeous and heart-wrenching - it brought so much passion to the film, just as Hans Zimmer (and Lisa Gerrard again) brought such beauty and intensity to Gladiator. A Beautiful Mind, of course, was his Oscar winning role. Now, here we are, nearly 20 years later. He's no longer a "leading man," but he's a good actor and keeps quite busy with roles coming out. So, NOTHING happened to Russell Crowe, thank you very much. 😊
After Noah but before The Nice Guys, he also starred in and directed a pretty decent film about the aftermath of the Battle of Gallipoli called The Water Diviner (2014).
Man I think he still around. He won a golden globe this year for a brilliant performance in a tv series and only 4 years ago he did that hilarious the nice guys, i wait for a sequel. And also he had that new movie coming out. He didn’t disappeared. He only got a bit old and a bit fat like many actors. But he still a great actor. But anyway....great video I am still waiting for WTF HAPPENED TO MICKEY ROURKE or STEVEN SEAGAL
Master and Commander is one of my absolute favorite movies , its a bit compressed but also a bit too long but the feel of the sea and the life of the explorers is amazing
Like Gladiator, it isn't historically accurate, but it's historically authentic. The events may not have happened, but it does a really good job capturing the experience of the era.
I didn't know people had a problem with the title "Cinderella Man". It's historically accurate. Damon Runyon gave the real James Braddock that name in an article back then
It wasn’ t a problem. This guy and writer of this script is an idiot . I won’t be watching anymore. I watched this for Russell not for the guy who does this program. Russell is rightfully considered one of the most talented actors of Hollywood historically and today.
I met Russel in a hotel in Nottingham must have been around 2009 when they were filming the Ridley Scott Robin Hood he was honestly a nice bloke he was just sitting at the hotel bar with another guy possibly his agent but I chatted with him for a few minutes while I was waiting to be served I offered to by him a beer which he declined but when he left he had a beer sent over to my table which was cool
I was explaining this to my GF last night oddly enough. Basically, Crowe retired before chancing a wash out of bad movies and Hollywood responded by inventing Gerard Butler.
He's still a damn great actor. Nice Guys was excellent. And despite how awful a movie it was, he was the sole thing keeping me watching Unhinged. He generally does this in mediocre movies like Broken City. You buy him as a sleazeball NY'er. I'll also echo sentiments about The Next Three Days. Super overlooked great film. I also enjoyed State of Play.
Yeah! For some reason I always thought it wasn't that good, so I always avoided it. Then decided to watch it only the other day on Netflix, and I was blown away! haha

Did you know, Russel Crowe was Nominated for a Golden Raspberry Award For Worst Supporting Actor For The Mummy, but he lost to Mel Gibson in Daddy's Home 2
Robin Hood (2010) is a lot like Kingdom of Heaven. The Theatrical Version is okay but the Director's Cut is wonderful and worth more than one watch. Recommended!
A Good Year is a remarkable film from 2005 with Russell Crowe in the south of France with an adaptation of the Peter Mayle book , A Good Year, unbelievable cast , fantastic location...and great music from his band the Ordinary Fear of God..check it out
I'm sorry, all due respect, this is another one I can't finish. I understand the tone you're aiming for, but I feel like you're capable of better. And I simply don't like watching vids where I feel like I'm being condescended. These "WTF"-vids have so much potential. But it's hard to tell if you actually give a shit, or if you're reading off copy from "Encyclopedia Dramatica". Which is too bad, because the majority of the work you put into these vids is usually great. But then we take ten steps back every time you resort to glib meme-talk. If I wanted that, I'd check out what those idiots over at "Red Letter Media" are up to. I guess I'm just saying- be sincere. This is a potentially interesting series of videos- following the trajectory of an actor's career can be fascinating. But, personally, when I can't tell if the person behind the video actually gives a shit, I have to tune out. Hoping for better things to come.
I couldn't agree more. I was going to write a similar comment but you put my thoughts into words very well. The majority of JoBlo's video's are well researched and well narrated but there's something very wrong with this one.
I never saw Robin Hood because I already saw Men In Tights, which is all you need to see. I did like the Noah movie. Jennifer Connely. Am I right guys 😍
Most recent update I saw from Russell Crowe was a tweet of kookaburras outside his window at his home in Northern New South Wales. I think he’s gone to the birds!!
Robin Hood is one of those movies that got little respect but was actually a pretty good movie. Russell Crowe is such a good actor and has done a lot of good movies. My top Crowe movies: Gladiator 3:10 to Yuma Cinderella Man American Gangster Robin Hood Man of Steele Quick and the Dead
Mr. Blo, I am, like, a hundred years old but, you sir, keep me laughing like a baby. You're repartee with the movie-thing is amazing. Please don't go away!
Typical 21st-Century Hollywood.. Hollywood: “would you like us to advance your career?“ Russell Crowe: “of course!“ Hollywood: “You must star in a movie called ‘Cinderella Man’” 🏳️🌈
The whole "He didn't win the Oscar because of his antics" thing is a myth. There are many factors to consider when analyzing award results. Also, are you seriously going to tell me that Denzel didn't deserve it?
I think they got it wrong giving it to him for gladiator instead of a beautiful mind, and Denzel deserved it for the hurricane instead of training day. If they weren't competing against each for those years it'd be 2 each but they both got awards for the lesser movie each
@@brockgrunow9280 Well, it's not like voters think "This actor's performance in this movie is better than his performance in that older movie;" they think "This actor's performance in this movie is better than the other nominees' performances."
First off, I love your videos bro. Keep up the great work. But I've seen you put more info into lesser stars over the years and this one seems kind of rushed. You skipped a few notable films Russell Crowe was in, including his directing debut THE WATER DIVINNER, you skipped Proof of Life (with Meg Ryan) and The Last 3 Days ( with Elizabeth Banks) and many more.
James Sharp loved Virtuousity but for me it was LA confidential. Russel Crowe is still A list. He just doesn’t give a fig about Hollywood or being a celebrity.
Better to be in a movie a year about something he finds interesting than be like Nic Cage who's diluted his star power by having to say yes to every role he's offered (to pay off his debts)
While Crowe is certainly a character worthy of discussion it’s a bit of an injustice to have him in this series imo. Yeah that movie he just had come out seems a little bit of an odd choice for him but it’s not like he’s been making utter garbage for years or not been seen. EDIT: ok I left this comment before watching til the end. egg on my face I guess!
My Favorite Russell Crowe Films Gladiator, Master & Commander, Body Of Lies, Robin Hood 2010, 3:10 to Yuma Remake, Virtuosity, American Gangster, Mystery Alaska, Proof Of Life, Heaven’s Burning, Cinderella Man, Noah, Next 3 Days, No Way Back, Broken City, & Mummy 2017
Romper stomper is an absolute classic and critics don't seem to understand the difference between fiction and reality. Also you didn't mention another of his Aussie movie roles in The Sum of Us.

For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. “ - Romans 10:9-13
He would have made a damn... good Jedi. He would have gave Liam Neeson a run for his money. Hell.. It would have been awesome to see them both work together.
MY ONLY WISH IS TO SEE MR. RUSSELL CROWE, PLAY ANOTHER WESTERN, I KNOW IT SOUNDS CRAZY, 3:10 TO YUMA, NUMBER 2. GOES AFTER THE SCUMBAG LAND OWNER ETC. LOVE THE GLADIATOR. SEEMS LIKE A DECENT HUMAN BEING TO ME. YES IT WOULD BE GREAT TO HAVE A SEQUEL TO 3:10 TO YUMA. BESIDES HE HAS NOT DONE MANY WESTERN MOVIES. TOO BAD THAT HE KILLED HIS OWN GANG. I LOVED THE MEXICAN SHARP SHOOTER. SAID HARDLY A WORD, BUT PLAYED A GREAT ROLE. AND NO ONE CAN FORGET, " CHARLIE ", BEN FOSTER.

He should've won an Oscar for best actor for A Beautiful Mind.
Thank you!! Hello!! He made that movie!! Amazing acting!!
Probably. But those awards are not about being the best at acting or having to do with acting. Those awards, for the winners, are more about campaigning. How much money you can throw at the award and how much ass kissing you can do to get the award. Additionally, the so-called "red carpet" is nothing more than a living billboard. It is an ad(advertisement) runway, where the actors' bodies are the commercial space. This is how it has been during my entire 41(going on 42) years of life in this world.
If you think, or thought, the awards shows are anything other than that, you are an ignorant and naive fool.

Romper Stomper is bloody amazing ... and yes its a very hard movie to watch!
Great flick.
Did you know, Russel Crowe was Nominated for a Golden Raspberry Award For Worst Supporting Actor For The Mummy, but he lost to Mel Gibson in Daddy's Home 2
I’ve worked with and been friends with Mr. Crowe for over 25 years. He’s the finest man I’ve ever met.
His best was , : A Beautiful Mind.:
oh my god its Russell Crowe! Did you meet Tugger?
It's disturbing that you think that.
Thought he was great in two movies
Gladiator
3:10 to Yuma
If you haven't seen 3:10 to Yuma i strongly suggest you do
We need him to go fight covid 19 like he fought cancer
What? He fought cancer?
What?! 😲
Robin Hood (2010) is a lot like Kingdom of Heaven. The Theatrical Version is okay but the Director's Cut is wonderful and worth more than one watch. Recommended!
A Good Year is a remarkable film from 2005 with Russell Crowe in the south of France with an adaptation of the Peter Mayle book , A Good Year, unbelievable cast , fantastic location...and great music from his band the Ordinary Fear of God..check it out
I'm sorry, all due respect, this is another one I can't finish. I understand the tone you're aiming for, but I feel like you're capable of better. And I simply don't like watching vids where I feel like I'm being condescended.
These "WTF"-vids have so much potential. But it's hard to tell if you actually give a shit, or if you're reading off copy from "Encyclopedia Dramatica". Which is too bad, because the majority of the work you put into these vids is usually great. But then we take ten steps back every time you resort to glib meme-talk. If I wanted that, I'd check out what those idiots over at "Red Letter Media" are up to.
I guess I'm just saying- be sincere. This is a potentially interesting series of videos- following the trajectory of an actor's career can be fascinating. But, personally, when I can't tell if the person behind the video actually gives a shit, I have to tune out.
Hoping for better things to come.
I couldn't agree more. I was going to write a similar comment but you put my thoughts into words very well. The majority of JoBlo's video's are well researched and well narrated but there's something very wrong with this one.
I love Russell Crowe and his films.
How about WTF Happened to Denzel Washington..
He's behind his son following his footsteps so he can retire to be a preacher or director something like that.
I've never been so grateful that an actor turned down a role than to find he turned down Aragon.
I was like "Where is Stargate ?!" then i remembered that i always confuse him with Kurt Russell
I thought he was great in man of steel
he is great ai.... just tell me where to go..
Yes he was
You forgot to mention his 2015 movie The Water diviner how come you didn't mention this movie hey?
I never saw Robin Hood because I already saw Men In Tights, which is all you need to see.
I did like the Noah movie. Jennifer Connely. Am I right guys 😍
I Love Russell Crowe he’s one of my Favorite Actors very a Underrated very convincing, Witty, Charismatic, & Likeable
I couldn't believe how good Nice Guys was. It was a pleasant surprise
Most recent update I saw from Russell Crowe was a tweet of kookaburras outside his window at his home in Northern New South Wales. I think he’s gone to the birds!!
Russell is my favourite Hollywood actor!!!
Whats about "Boy Erased"? he make a wonderful job.
'Boy Erased' is a good movie...
....20+ years earlier he plays a gay son in the 'Sum of Us'. He goes the full circle. Definitely an awesome actor! 👍
Been waiting for something like this for a while now, since the release of his film UNHINGED.
Robin Hood is one of those movies that got little respect but was actually a pretty good movie. Russell Crowe is such a good actor and has done a lot of good movies.
My top Crowe movies:
Gladiator
3:10 to Yuma
Cinderella Man
American Gangster
Robin Hood
Man of Steele
Quick and the Dead
I may add..L.A. Confidential...a beautiful mind to that list..
Mr. Blo, I am, like, a hundred years old but, you sir, keep me laughing like a baby. You're repartee with the movie-thing is amazing. Please don't go away!
Anyone else think that Unhinged Russel Crowe looks like a young John Goodman?
Typical 21st-Century Hollywood..
Hollywood: “would you like us to advance your career?“
Russell Crowe: “of course!“
Hollywood: “You must star in a movie called ‘Cinderella Man’” 🏳️🌈
Russell reminds me of Mel Gibson in some ways.
I can see that connection.
yeah...I love Mel Gibson. Should have a Gladiator+Braveheart movie marathon!
He looks so much like an older version of James McAvoy now, is it just me?
Older Profesor X? 🤔
Dude “The Next 3 Days” was amazing!
Where was the mention of his outstanding music career with his band 30 odd foot of grunt? Lol, even I can't say that without laughing my arse off.
You guys should do a video on why 1999 was the best year for movies
The whole "He didn't win the Oscar because of his antics" thing is a myth. There are many factors to consider when analyzing award results. Also, are you seriously going to tell me that Denzel didn't deserve it?
Oscars are as rigged as anything else IE American Beauty because one man could not win three times in a row.
@@Crimson_Hawk_01 Man? Are you talking about Russell Crowe or Kevin Spacey?
I think they got it wrong giving it to him for gladiator instead of a beautiful mind, and Denzel deserved it for the hurricane instead of training day. If they weren't competing against each for those years it'd be 2 each but they both got awards for the lesser movie each
@@brockgrunow9280 Well, it's not like voters think "This actor's performance in this movie is better than his performance in that older movie;" they think "This actor's performance in this movie is better than the other nominees' performances."
First off, I love your videos bro. Keep up the great work. But I've seen you put more info into lesser stars over the years and this one seems kind of rushed. You skipped a few notable films Russell Crowe was in, including his directing debut THE WATER DIVINNER, you skipped Proof of Life (with Meg Ryan) and The Last 3 Days ( with Elizabeth Banks) and many more.
Ummm, he's still A-List. I think the movie that made him was Virtuousity.
can be a-list if hollywood don't paid a list..
YES Virtuosity!
James Sharp loved Virtuousity but for me it was LA confidential. Russel Crowe is still A list. He just doesn’t give a fig about Hollywood or being a celebrity.
Better to be in a movie a year about something he finds interesting than be like Nic Cage who's diluted his star power by having to say yes to every role he's offered (to pay off his debts)
While Crowe is certainly a character worthy of discussion it’s a bit of an injustice to have him in this series imo. Yeah that movie he just had come out seems a little bit of an odd choice for him but it’s not like he’s been making utter garbage for years or not been seen.
EDIT: ok I left this comment before watching til the end. egg on my face I guess!
The jokes here are about quantity, not quality.
real life one needs $$$ to live on.
He starting to look like John Goodman
Russel Crowe hated Gladiator & he knew that in order to save it from being too good he suggested that he be allowed to play all parts in it.
"Man of steel is always an exception" that's right
this cutesy-pie announcer has to ruin it all with his non-sense of humor. Unsubscribed and thumbs down.
My Favorite Russell Crowe Films Gladiator, Master & Commander, Body Of Lies, Robin Hood 2010, 3:10 to Yuma Remake, Virtuosity, American Gangster, Mystery Alaska, Proof Of Life, Heaven’s Burning, Cinderella Man, Noah, Next 3 Days, No Way Back, Broken City, & Mummy 2017
Do one for Mel Gibson
Yes!
That will likely be 45 minutes like Bruce Willis’ installment was
Got outted as the racist bigot he is and is now mocked by Ricky Gervais mercilessly. The end.
Hayreddin Barbarossa yeah he's funny af while drunk.
Romper stomper is an absolute classic and critics don't seem to understand the difference between fiction and reality.
Also you didn't mention another of his Aussie movie roles in The Sum of Us.
“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.” - John 3:16 KJV Bible
If you were to die today, are you 100% sure that you would go to heaven?
So, If God were to ask you, “Why should I let you into heaven?” What would you say?
Did you know that the Bible shows you how you can know for sure that when you die you will go to heaven?
If what you believed or learned was not true, would you want to know?
“These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God.” - 1 John 5:13
Being 100% honest: Have you ever lied? stolen? hated someone? lusted after someone? Disobeyed parents? -- in your whole life?

"denzel won the unholy golden idol" you get a few points back for that.
Gladiator is one of the greatest films ever created.
LA Confidential may be my favorite Crowe flick.
A good thriller with some terrific acting
Really wanted him to be Bill Hicks
That's the greatest fan cast I have ever heard. Bravo.
Still find “3:10 to Yuma” , a great story and well played by all. I also love “Mystery Alaska”
I Love Russell Crowe ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Gladiator is one of my favorite movies ❤️❤️😍
I would kill for a movie with Gibson and Crowe directed by Gibson titled "Max vs Maximus"
When you are over 50 everything changes, this includes Movie Actors. He is alike Mickey Rourke in his youth.
No matter how good “Cinderella Man“ potentially was, naturally, everyone interprets it as “battyman“.
You missed the Efficiency Expert. He worked with Sir Anthony Hopkins. Movie was brilliant.
Crowe invited Trey Parker of South Park to a listening party of his album and he said it sounded like Bon Jovi meets hepatitis B
He would have made a damn... good Jedi. He would have gave Liam Neeson a run for his money. Hell.. It would have been awesome to see them both work together.
Unhinged was SO good. I have auto accident related ptsd and it triggered like half of my anxiety responses. I FELT the movie and that's cool af.
MY ONLY WISH IS TO SEE MR. RUSSELL CROWE, PLAY ANOTHER WESTERN, I KNOW IT SOUNDS CRAZY, 3:10 TO YUMA, NUMBER 2. GOES AFTER THE SCUMBAG LAND OWNER ETC. LOVE THE GLADIATOR. SEEMS LIKE A DECENT HUMAN BEING TO ME. YES IT WOULD BE GREAT TO HAVE A SEQUEL TO 3:10 TO YUMA. BESIDES HE HAS NOT DONE MANY WESTERN MOVIES. TOO BAD THAT HE KILLED HIS OWN GANG. I LOVED THE MEXICAN SHARP SHOOTER. SAID HARDLY A WORD, BUT PLAYED A GREAT ROLE. AND NO ONE CAN FORGET, " CHARLIE ", BEN FOSTER.
