I'm still mad Gyllenhaal did not even get a nomination for Nightcrawler. Saw that movie again a few days ago, his performance is out of this world. Biggest Oscar Snub ever.
Sean Meads I'd say he's top 5 from the younger generation (around 40, or below) of actors. I don't mean just movie stars, I mean those who really have a diverse body of work and are able to inhabit different characters (for example, someone like Michael Fassbender is very, very good, but he's not really good at inhabiting different people. His mannerisms seldom change.). These guys would qualify as best current actors IMO: Joaquin Phoenix (Master, Her) Tom Hardy (Bronson, Warrior, Dark Knight Rises, Locke) Ryan Gosling (Lars and the real girl, Half Nelson, Drive) Gyllenhaal is there for sure, especially after last few years - End of Watch, Prisoners, Enemy, Nightcrawler, Southpaw. Very different performances. The man is growing.
"Fear not, it is not a sadness beard." "Do you scratch your back with a fork?!" "Yeah, man!" "You did, that was you?!" "Yeah!" "Oh, THEY determine what's couth and uncouth!" This man is beautiful in every way oh my word
He totally seems like that guy who sits next to you on the couch, shares a few beer and has super funny and interesting conversations all the time. I bet he's a super cool bro. He'd totally get all the girls before me though.
By the end Jake Gyllenhaal will be remembered as one of the best actors of his generation. (Tom Hardy, Christian Bale, Joseph Gordon Levitt, Michael Fassbender, Benedict Cumberbatch, Leonardo Dicaprio, Bradley Cooper, James Mccavoy, Jared Leto, others) In the end Heath Ledger was going to be the biggest movie star of this new generation, but sadly great talents never make it to the end.
Carlos Santana what the hell man heath ledger was fantastic in one role and good in like 1 or two. not nearly enough to say he was the biggest movie star
Funkz and in those small amount of movies, Heath Ledger proved to be one amazing actor. And for the record, he said, "he was GOING to be the biggest movie stars of this new generation"
He’s got amazing talent. I noticed that he doesn’t always choose these movies that may get him nominations and he stays true to his own self fulfillment by choosing indie films. I think he’s one of the few actors who are genuinely content with their life choices and career choices…he definitely likes to indulge in different genres and good for him for finding that balance between movies that a large audience will see and artistic purists that he is drawn to. I think we all know he’s a great actor but as I watch these interviews I am truly amazed about how chill while being extremely articulate, intelligent, charming, and witty. He’s a goofball and I wish he would do more interviews Bc he cracks me up and even the host who are used to cracking jokes are so entertained by him.
I imminently liked Gyllenhaal after Donnie Darko. But man, recently, he's really stepped up his game. End of Watch, Prisoners, Enemy, Nightcrawler... I mean seriously, this guy has climbed up to one of my favorite actors and one of the best in the game right now and give this man a fuckin Oscar
I love the way Jake speaks cause it’s like sometimes some sort of accent comes out like it’s confusing he goes from light New York to more classy shit idk how to explain it
Every time I see or hear this man, I feel like some mad scientist extracted all my ideas of a perfect man from my mind to make Jake Gyllenhaal like some sort of Frankenstein monster.
does this not remind you of his interview with bradley cooper when he came on to promote the elephant man???? honestly, jake and bradley could be the same person haha
I've always been a fan of Jake! I love him to pieces, and in this interview in particular he's really talkative and happy, because sometimes he appears shy. This is awesome and it really made me smile! Woop!
i think this was after he filmed southpaw! in another interview he talked about how his characters stay with him for a while after filming bc he gets so into it
top 5 actors in my opinion 1. leonardo dicaprio 2.jake gyllenhaal 3.tom hardy 4.michael fassbender/bradley cooper 5.shia labeouf i would add benedict cumberbatch but i haven't seen enough movies by him, and i know some people would disagree about shia but....hes sort of a mad genius very misunderstood and underrated.
"You take a picture behind my back and called me uncouth" well said, jake

Couldn't agree more
And for prisoners? Like c mon
I know right
Yes. He was phenomenal, and intriguing.
RedVIII I actually just finished watching Nightcrawler for the first time. His performance was really really good.
Jake should have gotten more recognition for night crawler and prisoners
Don't forget enemy as well! 😄
***** prisoners was amazing
He's underrated
Ankita V Very
***** someone is in love with him! :P
Jake Gyllenhaal scratches his back with his fork, Reese Witherspoon
Why isn't this top comment
I'm dead 😂😂😂😂
lmfao!!! :-D
I don't get it?
+wildhopeXx hi wildhopeXx..Jake scratched his back with a fork instead of a spoon..hehehe as in Witherspoon...: )
Easily one of the top 10 actors currently working right now.
not top 5?
***** hard to deside who to put in top 5. top 10 is easier and i have so many fav actors that its top 25. lol.
Sean Meads i just wish he had more of this cooth stuff
Sean Meads 100% agree. He's fantastic.

"You take a picture behind my back and then call me uncouth"
He seems so chilled out and awesome
he´s always chilled out
Only Jake Gyllenhaal can make scratching his back with a fork sexy.
And that beard is legendary.
Jonathon Christopher Bayani Jake's the only guy who can look like a baby one second, and then turn into a lumberjack.
High Koots yas. Yr comment! ...
Fuckin pricelessXD
"Fear not, it is not a sadness beard."
"Do you scratch your back with a fork?!" "Yeah, man!" "You did, that was you?!" "Yeah!"
"Oh, THEY determine what's couth and uncouth!"
This man is beautiful in every way oh my word
" uncouth? *scoffs* oh! they determine what's couth and uncouth" HAHA AMEN!
If the little mermaid can use a fork to brush her hair, Jake can use it to scratch his back and beard.
Omg yes! as soon as he started talking about multiple fork uses the little mermaid popped in my head😂
Jake Gyllenhaal is a boss.
"Oh, like _they_ determine what's couth and uncouth..."
XD I love that man
This interview is very natural. I love how Jake is interested with the topic and seems very comfortable
This may be my favorite interview of Jimmy's ever...
He totally seems like that guy who sits next to you on the couch, shares a few beer and has super funny and interesting conversations all the time.
I bet he's a super cool bro.
He'd totally get all the girls before me though.
Robert Reinecke Plus he's hot yet he's single and wants to be a dad.
This is the straightest and not thirstyest comment I ever seen involving Jake gyllenhaal, Wow
i want him to fork me.
mr Morgan Freeman even god can't resist the sheer sexiness that is jake gyllenaal
Keren Samon Absolutely. he's not only super good looking, but also one of the finest actors of his generation.
Hey I'm god you imposter
Mr. Morgan Freeman best comment ever
TheWormzerjr not as sexy as Jake Gyllenhaal
Sexiest man alive 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
Agreed👐👐
Mulki Lair ABSOLUTELY!!!! Has been for a number of years!!! Get better soon Jimmy!! Jimmy Fallon

Mulki Lair He is up there but would say James Franco is sexier.
spaciousgalaqxy not even close

Carlos Santana Highly subjective list there for a very bold claim.
Carlos Santana Mccavoy doesn't belong on that list
Love this kind of chemistry going on between these two
thumbs up if you didnn't know wtf Uncouth meant before this vid, and now you're glad you do
thumbs up if you know it from the Sims
lmao
"Who are they to determine what's couth and uncouth"😂😂😂
I thought the exact same thing, how they're sneaking a picture of him, and then calling HIM uncouth.
He’s got amazing talent. I noticed that he doesn’t always choose these movies that may get him nominations and he stays true to his own self fulfillment by choosing indie films. I think he’s one of the few actors who are genuinely content with their life choices and career choices…he definitely likes to indulge in different genres and good for him for finding that balance between movies that a large audience will see and artistic purists that he is drawn to.

They kissed through that fork.
Now jimmy has herpes
Schnaken Wurst lmao wtf
😂😂😂😂
Thanks for this
The most underrated actor and Jake Gyllenhaal is pretty good too.
how did southpaw and this guy not get nominated for a Oscar how?
i love jake so much his laugh is so cute
Jake is cool, funny and confident. I love him.
I love the way Jake speaks cause it’s like sometimes some sort of accent comes out like it’s confusing he goes from light New York to more classy shit idk how to explain it
I've been looking for a comment about this. You can hear some "street" in him. He's swagger and dork in perfect union
Omg yes, never heard any other American sound like him, it's like the accent is totally his own
This man ages like wine...the longer he ages the better he tastes
Just want to befriend the guy you know. He's awesome.
Jake is so awesome! Hope he wins a well deserved Oscar soon.
Im gonna teach my kids to scratch their backs with forks
"you take a picture behind my back and call me uncouth" LOL
Jake Gyllenhaal is so adorable in every single interview he is just so funny without trying
okay so jake gyllenhaal is literally one of my fave actors
Every time I see or hear this man, I feel like some mad scientist extracted all my ideas of a perfect man from my mind to make Jake Gyllenhaal like some sort of Frankenstein monster.
Honestly every interview with jake is precious, such a funny guy
actual mermaid jake gyllenhaal
🍴🧜🏻♂️✨
When Jake Gyllenhaal comes, it's not a talk show anymore . It's just friends having a good time.
Quite the banter between those two. Good to see humor and wit naturally at play.
this is literally my favorite video. Jake is so smart and quick yet really goofy and funny. i think i'm in love
"yeah it is for a role" omg
He's so hilarious😂
does this not remind you of his interview with bradley cooper when he came on to promote the elephant man???? honestly, jake and bradley could be the same person haha
Yes yes yes!! Even the laugh!
Katerina Kaliviotis right?!? i'm sitting here watching this, thinking, "if i close my eyes, that could totally be bradley cooper!"
Jake IS such an incredibly sympathetic guy. He could strangle an old lady and we'll still love him.
"Watch how couth this is"😂😂
How come he didn't get an Oscar win that's uncouth!
I love how much fun these two have.
I feel like everything they tell each other's an inside joke
One of the funniest Gyllenhaal interviews I’ve seen lmao
i love how less fake Jimmy is when Jake is on the show. Feels like i'm just watching two buddies talk & joke around whenever he comes on :)
love how gentle he's scratching jimmy
0:25 - 0:27 the little laugh reminded me of Paul Walker
I'm a guy, and I still think that Jake is one good looking man.
it's really official, i have a huge crush on Jake Gyllenhaal
I've always been a fan of Jake! I love him to pieces, and in this interview in particular he's really talkative and happy, because sometimes he appears shy. This is awesome and it really made me smile! Woop!
So underreconginised but such an awesome actor! And good to the core, funny, humble, down-to-earth. He's the best!
Anyone else think Gyllenhaal sounds more gangster-y hear? I'm thinking this was his "bad and boujee/gangster-voice" phase.
i think this was after he filmed southpaw! in another interview he talked about how his characters stay with him for a while after filming bc he gets so into it
Yes, i have a beard but FEAR NOT is not a sadness beard hahaha I love him so muchhh
my man freaking CRUSH
I Just want a spiderman antman crossovers Just to see Pual Rudd and Jake in an intervew together
HE IS HANDSOME AND SUCH A GREAT ACTOR
I volunteer as your back-scratcher Jake.
Love Jake Gyllenhaal, great actor, great beard hahaha
My favorite movie with him is by-far Jarhead.
Mine is going to have to be both Donnie Darko and Nightcrawler
Mimi Shaw That damn bunny gave me nightmares for weeks. Very strange movie. I wouldn't say it was bad, just very strange.
Mimi Shaw yes
Mimi Shaw word. I saw Donnie Darko at a sneak peak and met him. He was nice :)
idiots LOL southpaw was his best.
HES SO HOT
Am I the only person that would have used the back of the chair to scratch the itch?
"This game makes no sense!" 😂 Jake's honesty is great
top 5 actors in my opinion
1. leonardo dicaprio
2.jake gyllenhaal
3.tom hardy
4.michael fassbender/bradley cooper
5.shia labeouf
i would add benedict cumberbatch but i haven't seen enough movies by him, and i know some people would disagree about shia but....hes sort of a mad genius very misunderstood and underrated.
Jake and Benedict are in my list too, Leonardo is also a good actor but jake is awesome not only as actor but as a person
Also matthew ma-icantspellhisname
I think you haven't heard of the lagend yet - Daniel Day Lewis.
ORGANIC SHOES
"Because they determine what's couth and uncouth." Yes. Take a stand Jake!!! Advocate for the fork scratcher!!!
his laugh is so adorable :(
The FORK EXTENDER..BACK SCRATCHER!
👏👏👏🎖🎖🎖🏆🏆🏆
You can even use forks to brush your hair, just ask Ariel.
The look of disappointment on his face as he finds out how short the fork is is absolutely priceless
Great chemistry between Jake and Jimmy!
Jake Gyllenhaal is Ariel from the little mermaid lol
jake should do a lip sync contest with jimmy
I watch this video when I’m sad, hasn’t failed me yet.
2019, im still watching this funny show. Jake is humorous. i love him!!
i dont know the reason why he hasn't got an Oscar. can somebody explain me?
+Adriana Cortes unsolved
Night crawler was so good I love him
jake is so cool, and natural you forget for a second the hollywood star he is, he is vey humble.
This affirms my feelings: i fucking love Jake Gyllenhaal
