wesler218 that’s because he was blacklisted from much of Hollywood for being really hard to work with and arrogant. He’d be more famous if it weren’t for his off camera personality. Still an amazing actor
One of the most underrated actors of this age! When he broke into Hollywood with the magnitude of a comet in the mid-90s it was purely because of his talent; out-acting whoever he was onscreen with (* cough * Richard Gere). He could practically play anything and everything. It's a shame how his career has plummeted in the last decade; he probably will be the Hitchcock of actors - not receiving an Oscar when he should have, so the Academy will chuck an honorary award at him once he stops working.
Not sure if plummeted is the right word, his part in Birdman was excellent particularly with how it was layered with meta. He also continues to work with Wes Anderson well.
Edward Norton is a high class actor, one of a handful who are invisible when they want and extremely impressive if the role needs to be.. He always was one of my favorites.. I enjoy almost everything he does and will do because of his phenomenal presence at screen 😘.. P. S. : The Illusionist was so good because of him..
I'm sure Fallon has some kind of learning difficulties. I don't judge him for that but I do judge the person who decided it was a good idea to give him his own talk show
........and stop putting his left index finger on his lips when he’s listening (at least this time his mouth was closed, often it’s not when he does this).
Edward: "I avoid fight club now because it only highlights the shape I'm not in anymore." Jimmy [pulls out giant card with stills from the movie]: "Here's some behind the scenes photos of you."
The promo for Motherless Brooklyn was pretty dense bc he really wanted the film to make money. Plus he'd worked his ass off on the movie, in front and behind the camera, and I guess the pressure of it all took a toll on him and his amount of sleep.
@@algo2957 its not that hes a huge asshole, its thag when he gets signed onto the project, we wants to make sure it's good. So he tends to start suggesting all these changes in whatever film hes in that will potentially make it better. I mean I'm not an asshole, well not completely. But I will do this somewhat unintentionally with others scripts or while shooting. And my persistence of a change will make my come off as an asshole when in reality, im doing what I think is best for the story.
@@ryanmcentire5704 YEAH? you're sure "he wants to make sure it's good?" So why the Fuck he did tha HULK Shit, I bet that were some others projects he deny with so much potential.
"That's what you do", clearly a nod to all the times Norton demanded rewrites on scripts, so in the end people opted out of working with him, which is a shame, because the guy has bottomless talent
Yep he's amazing but has messed up more than one movie by trying take the reins in the writing or editing room. Tbf though a good director should know how to handle these divas
@@starwarsroo2448 It's fine if they want to, but Norton approaches it the wrong way. He should approach movies like he did this one, with a clear intention to be the creative force behind it, not just the star.
Damn good actor.....maybe directors didn't want to work with him because he pointed out how shit the script was in places? Maybe he had a point....? Keep writing for yourself man.... and sure enough your work will shine!
@հokцƽ ρokus It was more deep and dramatic than the other movies, and I personally prefer it. Matter of taste I guess. What ruined the character for me was him kindly posing for pictures with kids and stuff, basically resolving an important conflict and making the character one-dimensional, being a bit funny and nothing else.
@հokцƽ ρokus Actually he tried to make the Hulk good but the studio didn't let him. The script that went out was Marvel's doing. Then they took the scenes he did make like when he tried to kill himself but he turned into the Hulk and spit out the bullet, and put that reference for Mark Ruffalo in the Avenger's movie. So really, they fucked up.
Oh god he is my favourite actor ever. I've seen all of his movies. He truly is one of the best actors out there, and definitely extremely underrated for the amount of talent that he has.
Naughty Edward, The first rule of Fight Club is: You do not talk about Fight Club. The second rule of Fight Club is: You do not talk about Fight Club. 😂😂😂💝
@@nadaandroid97 He is often difficult to work with, at times a real diva on set, plus he doesn't tend to be gracious at all to fans, plus he can be rude, in general. I know two people who worked in a supermarket he came into, and they both said he was incredibly rude to service staff. For one, he gave two baggers and a cashier a huge angry lecture about using plastic bags and ho w it harms the environment, and claimed he'd 'never come back here' because of the bags, like THEY have anything to do with that. They're working for likely just above minimum wage, while he's a multi-millionaire. He also yelled at another cashier for allegedly staring at him. He needs to yell at the billionaires that run the store chain, not lowly service workers. Pretentious douche. I think he just got too much cred, too soon. That kind of thing often happens when someone becomes super acclaimed and popular right from the get-go. He got an Oscar nomination for his first film, and later worked with Brando, De Niro, Keitel, Anthony Hopkins, etc. . He is a fantastic actor, but he doesn't seem like a very nice person. Since his career cooled in the past decade, and because he's also older, he may have mellowed some, by now.
It's a shame you hear so much bad stuff about how hard he is to work with and his personality behind the scenes. He seems like the nicest guy, I love all of his movies and he is one of my favourite actors!
I'm sure he's a great actor. But there's way too much evidence and witnesses pointing to the fact that he's an absolute nightmare to work with. To be fair I love Tarantino's movies but I wouldn't want to have lunch with the guy. There's loads of talented assholes in Hollywood. Norton is just one of them.
Edward Norton is one of my favorite actors he has something to him that makes him seem humble and just genuine and I’m sure he actually is 👍🏻 i like him a lot
Good actor. Can't believe Fight club is 20 years old. The twist is still weird. Also liked him in American History X, Keeping the Faith, Rounders, Primal Fear and some others. Even in the movies with Wes Anderson. Motherless Brooklyn looks Oscar worthy. I'll be checking it out.
I honestly think Edward deserves an Oscar more than Joaquin Phoenix from his recent role of Joker plus he's never won it before, his previous performances such as Primal Fear, American History X, Fight Club, The Score, etc, they had me mind blowing from his phenomenal acting.
I still remember the days when my fav actor was Edward Norton but now Joaquin Phoenix was definitely my fav. He’s performance in ‘Her’ and ‘Joker’ was just too prefect.
So excited to see this movie! I was living in Brooklyn Heights about 8 years ago when I first moved to Brooklyn from California , and I read this book and it was great and it took place in old school Brooklyn Heights so it was awesome to be reading about the place I was living. At the time I think 25th Hour was playing and was one of my favorite movies. Love Edward. Man, American History X! The dude only comes out of hiding to crush the big screen!
Edward Norton is really my expiration cuz when I used to get nervous in front of the people while I was acting I just used to think about him acting in the birdman movie an' it basically solved my problem 😂

He should've won the Oscar for American History X.
Such a great actor!
What would happen if they made that film today?
Nathan Green
They wouldn’t
Brilliant film!!!!
He was also very good in 'Primal Fear'
@Juan Cortez Muro Stop spamming. Every comment? Really? That's not how you get subs. I'm reporting you.
I will never forget his performance in American history x
somebody stole his father‘s truck.....
For sure, everyone should see it
Yep. It was also a much better film the fight club.
@Christian Mistian I second that..could hardly believe it was the same guy looking at him in American History X.A spectacular performance and movie.
American History X = Best Norton performance.
Fight Club = Best Norton movie.
Honorable mention: 25th Hour.
Another actor that deserves an Oscar since a long time.
He pissed off to many people in Hollywood. Wont get an Oscar and prob does not care.
'i wrote it for myself' you have no idea of how much that inspires me to write the things i wish someone wrote but no one does.
