Christan Bale vs Joaquin Phoenix at IFC Spirit Awards

[mikethe4th]

THAT is fucking funny

[bird4200]

The dude with the beard could play john Belushi.

[houlmouth]

Badman is pissed. Fetch him his bat mobile at once!

[MojoRisinist]

Steve Coogan - brilliant Batman.

[india1784]

Tha`ts one of the funniest moments I`ve ever seen. Kudos to the actors.

[Rixxrap]

At first I thought joaquin was playing bale as batman, and vise versa.

[romas1995]

note that christian bale IS NOT WEARING HOCKEY PADS !!

[88fredmcfred]

Which was which - they're both geese to me.

[mblackchurch]

hahahahaha that was hilarious. I wish the batman guy would have said "ohhh good for youuu!" hahaha

[kiddo215]

Batman sounds like The Rock.

[YinYangRight]

tbh i know its Jonah Hill playing Joaquin !!!!

[MissMurder46]

best XD

[ivelosthewilltolive]

Oops he slipped into his British accent at the end there...

[TheAllKnowingTribute]

@ivelosthewilltolive

It's Steve Coogan, isn't it...

[rockwell9999]

@TheAllKnowingTribute

Yeah it is Steve Coogan aye?

[gimmieurBRAIN]

[staggabob]

@gimmieurBRAIN watch?v=RBiPQKK1upk



[staggabob]

@gimmieurBRAIN should also have mentioned that it's Gymnopédie No.1 just so you know that link isn't spam!

[TYthemShoes]

hahahaha

[KanyeCoyote]

"You and I are done professionally!"

"Doesn't matter. I've given up acting."

"I'm gonna kick your fucking ass!"

[darkknight07100]

It's weird watching an awards show that's actually funny.

[RhinoAbyss316]

"will you shut the fuck up!!" always gets people crackin :p

[Dooky7]

This is awesome!

Does any1 know name of the song when the pronaunce winner?

[TheronSax]

For those that don't know, Joaquin Phoenix is the way he is because his family was part of a child molesting cult. This is not a joke. Have a little sympathy for a man who was severely molested as a child at the bidding and approval of his parents. This is the same reason that his brother became a drug attic and latter overdosed. Sad but true.

[Spyflugan91]

@TheronSax Wait wait wait... WHAT? Present your fucking facts too! How do you know these, more or less, "insider"-things? Cuz I have certainly not heard nor read about it anywhere... 

[TheronSax]

@Spyflugan91 It's not like this stuff is hidden. The cult was called "Children of God" but they have changed their name several times and they are currently called "The Family International". This cult is most famous for promoting sex between children and adults. They operate largely outside the U.S. to avoid prosecution or investigations into their crimes. River Pheonix in an interview said that he lost his virginity at age 4 while a part of this cult. I could go on.

[Spyflugan91]

@TheronSax hah okeey? well, that's gross...

[albina1408]

@Spyflugan91

Don`t worry, here are sometimes assholes, who`d always like to make shit of anything or everything good in this world, he had a great family, if he hadn`t, they would not be so close and supportive to each other nowadays when they all are about or above 40, i`d wish i had one like this.

[jonsi1988]

@TheronSax He is the way he is ? You do know that the beard and all that was a ruse while he was making his "MOCK"umentary called I'm Still Here... ? The cult stuff is true though, I have read about it somewhere before. Although no1 knows to what extent his family followed their ways.

[qqaaaqqq]

we clear on who acted as PHOENIX ,prob the only award show Horatio Sans ever appeared in and he had to act like someone else.

[drewsddy]

Thats some funny shit. Lmfao!!

[functoravatar]

Is that Zack Galafinakis?

[lastdaysguitar]

Batman should wash his mouth out with bat-soap.

[HuckleberrySlim]

@lastdaysguitar so should christian bale "you and I are done professionally" haha nice tough, steve coogan, spot on

[HuckleberrySlim]

@lastdaysguitar *touch

[hom859]

[benoblest]

@hom859 hahhhahaha it is! omg

[FrankieTheoret]

@hom859 might be zach galifinakis 

[REPCLONE]

[yoyofsho16]

[elvaelvirababe]

[ThePokeyPictures]

@dunstin690 well i think hes the best comic actor ever

[dunstin690]

[formenso682]

[imgonnakillyoo]

[DrLeonardBonesMcCoy]

WOW Steve Coogan is always funny but Ben Stiller playing a role he doesn't overact at

[Triple777ER]

ITS FUCKING DISTRACTING....

[arseniclullaby87]

What melt down???

[DancingSpiderman]

Joachin Phoenix walks as if his shorts are full of shit

[AlexanderRight]

That dude seriously walked on a wire between the twin towers? Jesus Christ, talk about balls.

[eternalnate]

@AlexanderRight scariest shit i've seen in a movie.

[guitarist5477]

man your all dumbasses, you dont even know that "Im Still Here" is a mockumentary Phoenix just shows how retarded the media and stupid people really are, when i first heard of all this news i knew it was fake and now its confirmed- this goes to those who have been puttin him down since 08

[MrEzral]

@guitarist5477 Phoenix is just too good of an actor for these nuts to know whats going on

[thedesertmisfit]

This brought a little levity to over dramatic and dull documentaries.

[norbiwlodii]

Smart Madaffakka 

[GreyOrchid]

Ben Stiller did the Joaquin Phoenix thing because of an incident involving them two in the documentary. I think they both set it all up.

[onemorproductions]

Yeah cuz some fag walking a tight rope is such a gripping documentary

[tatska87]

have to admit that this joaquin (frank coraci, btw) was better than stiller

[UnluckyGambler]

batman doesnt sound like christian bale...

[mi3456789]

0:43 DWIGHT!!!!

[benswhisky]

I swear to god that Batman is Steve Coogan?

[jamesthemod]

@benswhisky 

[merctp45]

@benswhisky yes

[cntower01]

@benswhisky Yes it is. Steve Coogan host the Indy Spirit Awards that year.

[Lex205]

he was on a drug fuelled downward spiral and now hes covering it up. i for one am not fooled

[iluvjensen1]

@Lex205 No he's not, it was part of a "fake documentary" that he and Casey Affleck did.

[michaeltbear]

I can see Batman's penis

[fitzchivalry100]

theres a sucker born every minute! hahah!

[Diabolous3x]

@1sababoy interesting u use the term "melt down"... seems u jumped on the bandwagon prematurely there son. Just going along for the media ride hey ;) its okay, everyone else does it, just let the TV tell u what's real or not... The Jimeny Brand, what every home needs :D I suppose u think 9/11 was steal melting too lol

[sonnetxi]

bahaaahahahahhaah

[AbabyThatWasntAbortd]

just goes to show how shallow hollywood is, when one of the best actors of this generation seemed to be troubled (well now we all know he was acting witch proves even more what a genius actor he is) all they could do was poke fun at him, not offer support, Fawk this new hollywood, Joaquin is a genius, he needs an oscar ASAP

[nicolaluvsmcfly4eva]

I love joaquin, people should show him repeact, he is one of the best actors out there today!!! x

[LFMtvChannel7]

@california727 LOL.. gay

[TheCanadianGuy08]

@california727 hahahahah nice one :P

[dikoduck]

the irony here is that joaquin faked the whole thing for a fake documentary. Interesting coincidence. Was someone at IFC in on the long-running gag?

[sonnetxi]

@dikoduck he didint fake the whole thing for a fake documentary genius. MAN people are stupid.

[tmos222]

@sonnetxi YES he did.

[sonnetxi]

@tmos222 NO you dont know that. he's on drugs

[tmos222]

@sonnetxi He did, the documentary is out now. He even came back to Dave Letterman and admitted it was all a stunt, as did his brother in law who directed the documentary.

[sonnetxi]

@tmos222 that's not a funny stunt at all. source?

[tmos222]

@sonnetxi Google "joaquin phoenix was a stunt"

[tmos222]

@sonnetxi nydailynews

Affleck admits that nearly everything in the film was fabricated, including the home movies of Phoenix swimming with his siblings (shot with actors and run over an old videocassette to degrade the quality, he explains), and the drug-fueled depravity of the adult actor.

[fede018]

@sonnetxi it's been confirmed it was a hoax. Now you look like a moron!

[sonnetxi]

@fede018 maybe it was so quick to be confirmed a hoax because it wasnt a hoax HA WHO'S THE MORON NOW LOL

[fede018]

@sonnetxi what? That makes no sense. Would you try that typing again without a cock in your hands

[sonnetxi]

@fede018 NO I SHALL NOT and of course that makes sense. you would do it too if you became a celebrity stoner! MORON

[fede018]

@sonnetxi what the fuck are you talking about?! Are you retarded?

[sonnetxi]

@fede018 sigh.....ill spell it out for you slow child, if you are a celebrity and suddenly developed a drug problem, wouldnt you not want to cover it up with a documentary to save your career?

[fede018]

@sonnetxi sorry, but that still makes no sense whatsoever. Bye

[sonnetxi]

@fede018 bye retard

[cores717]

Man on Wire is amazing, everyone needs to watch it.

[arshsingh1984]

I love the twitchiness

[buhrd]

Oh! The irony at someone playing Joaquin's "character" for a "documentary" giving an award for best documentary!

[ye11owsn0w]

@buhrd

lmfoa!! that was great.

[Underdog3210]

@buhrd Joaquin's film was a Mockumentary not Documentary :P

[ryukthekid]

hahaha nice.

[kethadarosukargyerek]

You have to see the movie ``Earthlings´´narated by Joaquin Phoenix In order to get a wider understandig about what is hi out for. I highly recommend to see thist movie ``Earthlings´´- wich is availeble for free on earthlings*dot*com. Thank you.... 

[maximusman4]

[qqaaaqqq]

@chiphead777 Horatio Sans mad tv/snl actor

[techgeek97]

[plastiswafers]

christian bale has really let himself go...

[XIXNayRXIX]

Lay off Joaquin. Anyone could tell he was and is putting on an act.

[misfitsg17]

"will you shut the fuck up!?"

[mrchrizzl257]

is the guy at 0:44 the "fishman" from house of 1000 corpses?

[foulfamiliar]

@mrchrizzl257 That's Rainn Wilson, he plays Dwight on "The Office".

[mrchrizzl257]

@foulfamiliar cool, and on imdb i see, he also plays the guy in house of 1000 corpses, thank you

[OneWayRoad]

unfunny

[jordanrakei]

Lol americans are pieces of shit..

[mmamofo21]

@jordanrakei screw u

[riichardmattson91]

is it possible that im liking joaquin phoenix even more as i see people mock him

[jolsonator]

@riichardmattson91 me too

[Writersblock39]

Is that steve coogan?

[sxephlI]

@Writersblock39 i they said christian bale and Joaquin Phoenix

[Writersblock39]

@sxephlI I mean the guy dressed up like batman, is he Steve Coogan?

[sxephlI]

@Writersblock39 i know i just think at the start she said christian bale. no steve coogan, bale is batman, you should watch it, its great ;)

[realplayer54]

That uniform and the way that Batman talks is nothing like Christian Bale's version. It should be Adam West vs. Joaquin Phoenix.

[2taggs2]

Very funny!

[gumbee78]

So funny!!!! hilarious spoof!

[oberning1]

Ben Stiller was a much better Joaquin Phoenix

[realplayer54]

@oberning1 I agree, Ben Stiller was way better at the Oscars.

[Y2Jarlath]

@oberning1 joaquin pheonix was a better joaquin pheonix

[MQUC1888]

@oberning1 no way....this was MUCH funnier that Ben Stiller at the oscars

[Arboria]

@oberning1 yeah but this is way funnier.

[1sababoy]

Hey I understand the spirit of mockery here, knowing the meltdown those two actors had over that year... but man, why do it when introducing these important documentaries? It just took the meaning and sincerity of these films away! The producers should have let this be some "one-off" gag between the award presentations instead.

[simonistic]

@1sababoy because they don't give a fuck about them. For hollywood, it's the movies that make money that count

[Hypster123]

@1sababoy phoenix was a hoax.. bale just a lunatic.. therefore wouldnt call them "meltdowns"

[Vinsanity15814]

@1sababoy yea the meltdown true for bale, but phoenix was faking that whole rap transition thing for his mockumentary I'm Still Here. i guess these "comics" just couldnt pick up on that. Phoenix is brilliant and faked everyone out

[jayrobson88]

@Vinsanity15814 why is he brilliant? Anyone can act crazy on a talk show and therefore convince everyone theyre crazy. That does not require much skill. I think Crispin Glover was more brilliant in what he did on Letterman and Pheonix just tried to copy him.

[waagow22]

@jayrobson88 It wasn't just on Letterman that he did it. He lived like that for 2 years keeping up said act without anyone finding out.

[Vader58]

@Vinsanity15814 Phoenix faked everyone out? I dont know anyone that believed that he was giving up acting to become a rapper. You would have to be on drugs to think for a minute that he was going to do that. I have to say that the whole gag was a waste of two years for him though and did anyone see "I'm still here"? The Letterman thing was his worst acting performance and who did'nt see that it was a joke.

[bobolob]

@Vader58 Difference was that the Dave wasn't in on it. People saw it as Dave and Phoenix were in cahoots, when in reality even Dave wasn't too sure.

[youuser3000]

@1sababoy What melt-down did Joaquin have?

[iluvjensen1]

@youuser3000 He said he was quitting acting and going to pursue a hip hop music career back in the Fall of 2008. It was all part of a "fake documentary" that he and Casey Affleck came up with. Search for "Joaquin Phoenix on David Letterman on 2/11/09" to see first hand what basically added fuel to the fire. He was just on Letterman again back on Sept. 22.

[youuser3000]

@iluvjensen1 Thanks

[youuser3000]

@iluvjensen1 Thanks

[buffett1000]

too much swearing

feel sorry for JP, whatever's going on.

[redgroun]

gay shit

[jorgesasuke]

EPIC!!!!!

[REKONBALL2]

lol for a seconed there i thought that really was joaquin phoenix. it looks and sound just like him.

[slrolewicz]

Batman sounds like Gerard Butler and "Joaquin Phoenix" I think is Horatio Sans.

[MNRTAUR]

Batman is Steve Coogan man!!!
