Listening to Ben, I can tell he is a great person. There is not a bone of jealousy in him. He wears his heart in his sleeve. He expresses his admiration and appreciation of other actors as if he is not a super star himself. He is always showing appreciation for Matt's friendship. He makes his actors comfortable and he boosts their confidence with his kind, appreciative words. I am witnessing the real Ben and not the Media Ben that they want us to see. Ben is a good person. I love him.
Every once in a while a kind human being comes along. Mrs Jennifer Lynn Affleck is very lucky indeed and vice versa. He's one of the best filmmaker in the 21st century. Congratulations 🎊 Ben.
What an exceptional director and cast.
Ben is a great filmmaker who doesn't get the attention and appreciation he's always deserved.
his name may not come up in a top ten list,but his resume is solid. the town,argo etc
Ben was this great before he was destroyed by the media through his love life since 2003 all the way to probably last year when he finally seems incharge of his life n happy n settled.
@@monicamwaura399 The media loves to get involved in personal shit they have nothing to do with, and they choose favorites to rip apart. Ben happens to be one of those unfortunate people; the media salivate over sullying his name
Live by night was just ok imo. But the other 3 are really good.
One of the greatest filmmaker of the 21st century Ben Affleck 🎉
I'm glad Ben understands and trusts other artists around him.
Wow! Seeing Ben Affleck speak and share his directorial skills...giving the actors freedom to make their roles more personable...Matt sharing his thoughts...What an gamazing group of truly talented artists...Jason, Ms. Viola, Chris...et al. 🎉🎉
I love how ppl are in awe of Viola's acting genius!
You can tell Matt and Ben live this art form. It's inspiring.
20:56 "Judge me for how good my good ideas are, not how bad my bad ideas are" amazing quote.
In the filmmaking industry, there are 3 categories of movies that exist :
The ones that are made for making money, the ones where the director and his team are on a mission, and the ones where you can tell everybody has fun on set.
And occasionally, comes a movie like Air, that is all 3 combined.
I just watched it, and boy is this movie is gonna make BANK !
(Oh, and pumping some more millions of sales this year for Air Jordans !)
Have you all noticed by now that Ben makes movies for the sheer love of telling great stories - stories that need to be told? Making money doesn't seem to be the crux of it. But because the stories are so good, material well written, shot superbly, casted like a charm, with a crew I'm sure is inspired and your best friend of 40 odd years as your number one collaborator - it makes the money. The rare lightning in a bottle (on set) happens and we're all smitten!!! I wanna see it now! I wanna see it right, right now!!!
GREAT MOVIE I WANNA SEE IT AGAIN . ANOTHER AFFLECK MASTERPIECE FROM THE TOWN, ARGO, GONE BABY GONE AND NOW AIR....HE'S A MAESTRO 💯👏💪
This is such a fucking awesome group of people. Love how collaborative they are with each other, maybe we can see some sort of reunion in the future in another film. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 cannot wait to see AIR
9:15
This group should be like how Ben Stiller has his own gang of Owen Wilson, Vince Vaughn etc or Adam Sandler has Chris Rock, Kevin James etc. Ben should keep these guys too.
Very good movie. Ben Affleck is a masterful director. To make this story so completely entertaining and good from start to finish, is the mark of a truly talented filmmaker.
Love Chris Tucker best.
Love this interview and energy/vibe. Ben spoke more clearly of his own directing/producing thoughts and skills and Viola truly has a presence felt here amongst a room full of esteemed gentlemen. Much respect and thankyou for telling this iconic story 🍿🏀💯
8:05
Well said
I just finished watching the movie, I love Viola Davis and she is in my Top 5 favorite actors, But Matt Damon was the MVP for me, The Speech Matt gave Michael Jordan and his parents was powerful.
She is truly one of the best actors out there this movie showed she is a superstar!!!
I just said it somewhere, the last time Matt and Ben act with a giant by the name of Robin Williams, they got Oscar’s recognition. I hope I am not jinx-ing it but there is a big chance they will repeat it again with a titan by the name of Viola Davis. Great actress!
"just do it" just shocked me where that phrase has became from.....beautiful movie full of emotions... All of them... Great job guys... Great job!!!
Oh, this movie is so good. I really believe I'm going to see it again. Mrs.Jordan, your son picked one heck of an actress to portray you. Viola Davis did such a beautiful job. " ... I'm sure it was a mistake that the percentage of the sales of the shoes be paid to Michael was left out of the contract. ..."
Viola is probably disappointed that there wasn't a love scene with a white actor. According to her that is what Hollywood needs more of.
And I must say it's great to see Chris Tucker back doing what he excels in. I hope that we will see this collaboration of him and Ben again in a comedy movie. Ben is funny, too.I never knew that.
Just got back from seeing the movie and it was great, Matt Damon was excellent, Chris Tucker was phenomenal, Viola was great, Ben Affleck was awesome as Phil Knight, the movie gets two thumbs up
I love this artists's roundtable 🥰 !!!!
Ben , a great director. A director who treats actors the way he would like to be treated. The advantage of being a director and an A-lister actor.
Ben , a director who believes in an inclusive environment.
I went to see this last night it’s brilliant! I was totally unaware of Nikes relationship with Michael Jordan and just how pro-active, shrewd and smart his mother was, just incredible!
Amen to All Mothers.
This cast is just phenomenal. Nice one Ben😊
A film about Sport History, that needed to be Told. Bravo🎉
It's crazy how well spoken Ben is 👋
The movie was amazing! Haven't smiled in a movie for a while about something that is truly Legendary!!
Wow ….that is a table of talent . I was so engrossed in the conversation that when Ben said thank you for watching……I’m like dude keep going ! More Please More 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🏀🔥
This looks equally as iconic as the last supper painting with all legends sitting together here..💯
Ben Affleck is now a certified great movie maker and he should have been before . That’s because he’s in a happy life …settled down.. with the love his life JLo .. And the whole cast here are phenomenal and I can’t wait to see this movie and I am going to get all my friends and family to go to the theater to see this fabulous movie … bravo Ben Affleck 👍🏻💙👍🏻
Always had been❤
It's a great cast indeed. Who would have thought we could see Chris Tucker, Viola Davis, Malcom Wayans , Matt Damon, and Jason Bateman in one movie?
Marlon Wayans 🙂
@@leahmckinney7217 phone auto correct, 🙏
Looking forward to this movie! Great cast!! Ben,Matt,Chris,Viola, Jason,Marlon ❤
I can't wait to see this movie. What an amazing cast. They have so much respect for one another & truly enjoyed making this movie. Congrats
"Judge me for how my good ideas are, not how my bad ideas are" 👍👍
What a cast!!! Can't wait to see AIR
Hi Kathleen! I'm so sorry to leave this here, but I came across your channel on TH-cam and would love to get to know you better. I think you must be a very honest person because I always found your comments so respectful and well-said. If that's okay with you, I would love to be friends-but if it seems weird or uncomfortable in any way, please don't feel obligated to respond. Have a great day and keep sharing!
This isn't acting. You can tell they really loved working together
The Art of Acting.
There is power when Viola speaks and acts. She commands respect and attention. Ben recognised that.(Ben is a talented director, I'll say it again)She really is the best actor in the world right now. And I hope they'll give her the Oscars that she deserves. The Academy did the most horrible thing in the past. They overlooked her,intentionally, i must say. More like snubbed her😢
She's won albeit not the highest, not the best actress.
@Lame Fart And she is the best actress. Snubbed for many years, and we know why.
Movie was awesome! Saw the early screening. Very informative and funny
Air is one of the best movies this year
Ben, I changed my mind. THIS is the video I'm sending to my friends to get them interested in your new movie, AIR. We're going this weekend and I'm really excited to see your new movie after listening to these actors - and you as director - share about their experience as actors and developing their roles in AIR.
it's crazy how jordan isn't even in the movie but is basically the star of it #GOAT
Man! Watching this they are just experiencing just joy. It so fun to watch
(Edit) NOOOOOO it over and it went by so freaking fast.
Such a great film. Everyone did an incredible job
I’m so excited to watch this taking my son Wednesday night gold class been years since I’ve been this excited to see a movie. Awesome cast and that friendship and bond between Matt and Ben just melts my heart every single time I see them together… keep keeping it real and keep giving us these amazing movies we all want to see as directors your talented I love listening to how you describe the scenes and your style of directing.. your back Ben and Matt well tell Jimmy he sucks all the way from down under 😂😂❤
Super Excited to watch this movie! Awesome Conversation! 🤩
Looks like a scenario for the last supper. 😊😉 Happy Easter to everybody :-)
Exactly wat I said lol...all legends sitting at the table together before their iconic film drops 💯
Easter is not real. It's a pagan holiday.
I cant wait to see it!! Im such a fan of all of them!!❤
Thank you for making such another beautiful movie and sharing you're lives with us all 💞 bless you all for what you do 🙏🌞 Have a beautiful Easter.
Air is one of the best shows I have seen in many years! Awesome actors and writers along with Ben acting and Directing . Don't miss seeing this movie!
This was a outstanding film...and i can truly say this interview shows their genuine love for the craft
Chris Tucker ❤🎉👏🏾
I really would have liked them to touch on Jason’s role more, I thought his performance timing and depth really allowed Matt’s character to have great reactive moments that created layers. Viola Davis is powerful and perfect for the role, Michael Jordan as always knows what he’s doing! The entire cast was amazing! This movie well surpassed my expectations and I hope it wins a lot of awards and it’s deserved recognition, well done!
Yes, I have fallen in love in Ben Affleck.
This film was incredible - my favourite film of last year, & it has stayed with me ever since.
I truly enjoyed the movie and this table talk was a wonderful interchange of their feelings of how it all came together. They couldn't haven't gotten a better cast to recreate how Michael Jordan's story unfolded with Nike. Dynamic actors at this table. They all deserve their flowers. They are all great in their craft. Viola is truly one of my favorite actors and she killed it as Michael's mother. Excellent job Ben on everyone you chose to be in the movie!
One word...Excellent!
Can’t wait to see it 👏🏼
I haven't gone to a movie theater since the pandemic started but I might be tempted to see this movie.
🌞thanks, one of the most real discussions I’ve seen in a while-nice
Can’t wait to see this!!
This movie will be GREAT simply because of VIOLA DAVIS.. Obviously Ben is an amazing Director that does not get the right recognition but you cannot go wrong with the best female actress in the business now. SHE doesnt get the recognition she deserves either.
What a genius cast everyone of them so talent so respectful and the movie is truly one of the best I have seen in years and that is saying something !!!
Amazing❤
Wonderful to see dreams come true !
Awww I love this group so much ❤
This was gooood! Can't wait to see Air.. 🤔 ... no pun intended 😂😂
Good job! I love this
Hi Vetta! I'm so sorry to leave this here, but I came across your channel on TH-cam and would love to get to know you better.

amazing movie i love it ben is evolved to a great director and the cast is just fantastic
Great Interview 😂🥳
Awesome talk
I so much enjoyed this interview too bad Marlon did speak but in general the dynamic is clear Ben as a director gave these actors the freedom to give an extra touch to their characters - this was great to watched 👏🏻🙌🏻
I love the Bill Russell reference.
oh ben, you would become great director
Maybe get an Oscar as one. He already got the best picture and original screenplay though. The latter with Matt.
No!
what a cast, jesus
this movie es awesome ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Incredible Cast Nbc sports
Awesome
They really are pushing this movie
As they should!
It a super good movie and I’m trying to get my friends to watch because most of them don’t even know it existed
That’s what you supposed to do no different than other being advertised
@@carolynswan1171 Much more than others
It's Matt and Ben's own production company they've started. It's just smart business. When you put your own money and sweat behind a product, you want it to do well. They're big stars; and they have big stars who really love what they've created. Very fresh right now in contrast to all the big budget we've gotten used to. Just humble opinion.
🙏🏻
Am here for Chris Tucker
I’m not a huge basketball fan but I really enjoyed this movie!
❤Beautiful.
Hi there! I'm so sorry to leave this here, but I came across your channel on TH-cam and would love to get to know you better.

@@Broadtolove Good Evening. It is as such as those who deem that type of communication of value. Some people do, some people do not. ❤️. Thank you for the compliment. I will take it graciously. You can write me anytime on my channel, if you would care to converse as such.
@@lesley-ann320 You are Welcome. Honestly I'm happy to get a response from you. And I would love to chat further if you don't mind
Sure. ❤. Do you have topics of conversation that are particularly interesting to you with regards to the movie? sports? Entertainment?
@@lesley-ann320 Yes i do
❤
❤❤❤
Hey Gail! Apologies for dropping this here I came across your TH-cam channel and I would love to know you better. I'm guessing you must be an honest person, because I always found your comments to be so nice and respectful. If it's okay with you, I'd love to be friend but if it sounds odd or embarrassing in any way please don't embarrass me by replying. Have a wonderful day, and keep sharing!
“Around The Table” is ironic because the table is sorta L shape
And who laid that tablecloth so badly?! 😂
Great movie. I’m looking for new movie Ben playing mafia movie.❤😊.
Viola 🔥🔥
💜💜💜💜💜
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Even though I knew Julius's face, I did not realized until now, that Viola acted with her real husband when I saw the film.
Хочеться посмотреть Ваш фильм на большом экране в Украине!
💎💎💎💎💎
This seems like a weird setting for a group interview.
They didn't let Jason Bateman say a word
Haven’t seen Chris since mindy
The table could have been better
Is it me or has Ben not stfu since him and Jlo got married?
Those athletes in college do get a free education.
I don't like Ben Afflec at all. But, I love Viola Davis...must see!
Really?I think Ben is so likeable
Why the hatred ????
You’ll be ok little Debby baby
I love Ben he seems so down to earth
@@lIlIlIlIlIlIIIIIIII 😂
I didn’t realize I was going to be watching 22 minutes of ppl obsessing over Viola Davis.. I forgot there was anyone else in the room at one point.. that was annoying
Boring movie. Take your pillow and blanket with you if you insist on wasting two hours of your life with watching this movie.
It was great! I watched it twice!🔥
Shut up you dork!
Awesome YES CHAMPION 🥂🥂🥂🥂🥂🥂🥂🥂🥂🥂🥂🥂🥂🥂🥃
