  • o.k, after the Harry Potter thing I gave up watching this crap, Bye...

  • most awkward moment ever. harry potter? dumb ass whoopi. stick to your commercials about pissing yourself. He's too talented an actor to be wasting time with these idiots.

  • My god the women on this show are stupid.

  • Holy crap...... are you fucking for real?  No wonder people think Americans are idiots.

  • FUCKING MORONS!!!

  • I'm surprised that Comic Con aficionados didn't bombard the show for Sherri's mispronouncing one of Marvel's beloved characters. mag-net-o....really?!

  • they didn't do any research before this interview did they? wrong charater, couldn't even say a characters name right, and its not the hobbit series. The hobbit is one book followed by the lord of the rings trilogy.

  • oh god, who approved the idea of a panel comprised entirely of women...

  • WHATTHEFUCKAMIWATCHING?

  • fucking blondes -__-

  • MAG-NET-O

    MASTER OF MAGNET

  • I lost it at the Harry Potter part.

  • y is whoopi so bitter, always asking about blacks and defending... quite annoying.

  • "That's what they like you to believe." ... the stupid, it burns.

  • @AcroStigma wear some flame proof clothing before watching stupidity unfold.

  • Free Health Care to all!

  • WELLLLLL =I tolkien was born in Africa >.> soooooo i guess there could be black hobbits somewhere XDDD

  • Harry Potter? Jeez. "So when are you going to play Merlin again, Ian???"

  • I can't believe people this stupid would inturrupt this man. If they had JUST listened to him they would have probably learned something.

  • So much fail D:

  • The poor man. Stupid question after stupid question.

  • Mag Netto? They can't even read! IDIOTS!!

  • This keeps bringing me back tohat flashback of Family Guy where they are all chickens and that black women lays and egg and shit....omg they don't even deserve to in the presence of Sir Ian he is too awesome...he doesn't need to withstand this shit!

  • I hate how they kept interrupting him... it was rude.

  • Wow. I'm actually speechless. I do admit that look Sir Ian gives is priceless.

  • Comment removed

  • When Whoopi asked the question I paused because of the awkwardness... I don't wana hit play!!!

  • Comment removed

  • Oh my god, could Elizabeth be any more annoying?!!

  • @AsSheLikesIt You can call Elizabeth annoying in any other interview but not this one... Especially since Whoopi called him "Dumbledore" and Sherri called him "Magne-doh"

  • @potsiiscool Yes Whoopi goofed. Yes Sherri has probably never seen any of the X-men films and should keep her mouth shut. But still, and always, Elizabeth is really annoying!

  • @AsSheLikesIt come on, give that mildly stuck-up girl a break... at least she was the most professional interviewer (obviously talking just for this segment)...

  • Happy Birthday, Ian!

  • Mag-netto? So he has the power to control discounted tins of beans?

    btw, fuck you Elizabeth!

  • You can tell Mr. McKellen keeps trying to talk about the issues that THEY brought up, but they interrupt, AND they interrupt each other. He's so intelligent and he has been exposed to THESE THINGS.

  • "... but it is available free to me on the National Health Service in the United Kingdom."

    I'd bump your fist to that, sir!

  • wow that woman in the white is annoying

  • This is so painful to watch. 

  • The face of Ian McKellan at 1:52 is just priceless. He's thinking to himself, "What a bimbo."

  • Elisabeth, you dumbass, yes, you have your own views- but listening to someone else's views who's had a different experience of life allows you to refine your views and become informed. And figure out if you are actually RIGHT! If you make up your mind without considering other, informed perspectives, then you are simply a shallow-minded, yapping moron. This is why no one likes you except other yapping morons.

  • @moonlily1 Very, VERY well said.

  • @anzin74 Thanks, I am glad you agree.

  • Poor Ian McKellen. He just lost an hour of his life to be on this inane show.

  • magNETO

  • rule 32

  • keep on trying to justify it republican princess Hasselbeck ... keeeep on trying.

  • Gandolf the Gay from Harry Potter? Back to the kitchen!

  • will that blonde chick(mainly)...infact all those chicks should be less rude and not talk over each other....

  • Jesus christ that blonde woman is a fucking idiot!

  • Yeah, I don't think he'll ever come back for a visit to The View again. Why isn't this show canceled? What a horribly unprepared and unprofessional bunch of untalented, whiny bitches. Whoopie Goldberg is one of the biggest racists I've ever seen. NO, they're not any black hobbits, you idiot. Just like we wouldn't expect an all white cast in a movie version of MLK's biography.

  • the view sucks, too many nagging bitches who don't shut the fuck up and let people finish their points

  • why do they ask celebrities to visit on their talkshows when they don't let them speak at all?

  • that was like watching a Chihuahua try to fight a bear

    No disrespect to the lady but she stood no chance

  • lmao, black hobbits. Fuck that shit. I think there were some darker folk, but they were evil humans.

  • This bitches are retarded.

  • LOL  Look how awkward Sheri, Whoopi, and Joy are when Liz is rambling on about health care

  • harry potter mistake, "mag-netto", black hobbits Lmao. I have never seen so many mistakes and/or random questions in an interview before!

  • These ill-prepared harpies are unworthy of this man's presence.

  • I'd love to smack elizabeth

  • Is it heck run by the doctors in the hospitals!!!!!!

    Doctors are completely straightjacketted by government targets, bureaucracy, red tape and regulations.

    Bollocks, Ian. Utter bollocks.

  • Sir Ian McKellen - i'm not in Harry Potter , lol.

  • Mag-NETTO!

    Let's see us some black hobbits!

  • wow this is probably the most useless interview ever, not to mention, how can you say he played in harry poter, omg these dumb bitches makes me wanna turn gay hahahaha

  • but he just said hesellbeck that its not run by the government its run by the doctors and professales... if the US does what happerns in England the government only funds health care for thos who need it. if u want your pritive health care you can keep it but if you want the want a pubic option you can opt into that

  • omg whoppi is so embarrissing

  • It's shameful that these people are on TV.

  • 1:53 his look is pricelss he is thinking to himself uhhhh what the fuck is this chick talkingabout she knows nothing haha great stuff ian

  • Wow. Ian McKellen totally acted Jim Caviezel right off the screen. Maybe it's because I'm watching it out of context but it seems kind of forced and overdone, it's like he's trying to do a bad impression of Terry O'Quinn as John Locke (one of the best performances I've ever seen an actor give).

  • if this doesn't show the difference between the UK and US nothing does

  • whoopi, joy and sherri are funny women. Elisabeth don't have to try and be funny because she makes fun of herself just by opening her mouth

  • how much did he make them all look like stupid ditzy bitches?

  • Why the eff would Ian care what Elisabeth thinks of health care?

  • You'd think they'd research such an epic idol as Mckellen before the shoot... and such a simple mistake? it was a silly mistake!! :|

    Magneto *the pronunciation* ... he's not a Cornetto. :'D  :

    But I LOVE Ian Mckellen. He's such a marvel.

  • Wow These women are STUPID -

    Ian McKellan is the Man

  • he reminds me of a modern day version of James Mason

  • want to see the new movie

  • holy shit

  • This show is full of fail , Harry Potter ? , Mag-net-o? Blonde bitch that doesnt shut up ?

  • Why Ian, why did you waste your time with this bunch of idiots? Sure, you wanted to promote the Prisoner but even you knew that you were the only shining light in that entire shit remake. Money talks but how is it worth.....ugh....a guest-spot on the View? You could do better and then some. I have to give it to you though, you're one baddass for even trying to endure that shit. Hats off.

  • @oblivion476 ya this show seems ridicolous

  • does that blonde chick ever shut up?

  • Sir ian definatley took offense to some extent, national pride, I dont blame him that blonde bitch is one of those dumb american conspiracy theorists that us in the rest of the world hate. Although the american govt is pretty corrupt (going off sicko here but michael moore is also full of shit). I cant judge (though i just did) all I know is Id tap that blonde bitch shes fine but A fucking moron.

  • Wow, I guess even Sir Ian McKellan has to do things that he doesn't want to do sometimes. I can't imagine a more aggravating interview!

  • This experience probably reminded Ian McKellen why he's gay.

  • What's wrong with loving the same gender?

  • Oh, Sir Ian just reminded me! I have to get my swine flu vaccination. It's free here too but when the rest of my family got theres, I was somewhere else. Damn... O_O

    And I love Sir Ian! XD

  • I though McKellen's role as "Mag-Netto" in X-Men and as Dumbledore in Harry Potter was awesome.

  • And the stupid award goes to....Whoopie Goldberg! WOW!

  • Can the blond chick PLEASE stop interrupting him!? Even I get pissed-off wile watching this.

  • gotta love whoopi

  • any black hobbits are u serious whoopi? my god, i'll protest for a black hobbit when i can watch a spike lee or tyler perry movie in which the white people that are in it aren;t shown as being ruthless, ignorant, misleading, untrustworthy and flat out evil ... i never hear u bitch about that

  • I think Spike Lee's probably a little more even handed than you may think, especially in his later work.

    But, even the white characters in 'Do the Right Thing' for example are pretty complex, especially John Turturro's Pino and his brother Vito.

    Pino's relationship with Mookie is a complicated look at racism and personal relationships.

  • I like Sherri but I don't believe for a second that she read the Lord of the Rings series at 11. I guessing she started and stopped with The Hobbit.

  • yea she says something like : i read the trilogy back when i was 11, the hobbit serie

  • I read LOTR when I was 11...

  • @mithol

    I read LOTR at a young age also. What I'm saying is that I don't Sherri has... the way that she is claiming to have.

  • @PurpleLava

    Ah yeah, I don't believe that for a second either...

  • @mithol oohh... you probably got 40% of the message at that age.... and with words like bivouacked i doubt a child would understand the book completely..

  • @TubbyWilliams Oh, I got it alright. I really don't wanna sound cocky, cos I hate that. But I got it. I've been meaning to re-read it again lately. I haven't re-read it since the last movie came out. O_O :(

  • What a waste of McKellen's time.  I'm sure undereducated, overweight, under traveled, women appreciate this show. The rest of us just hate Elizabeth's annoying voice.

  • @AHPSC  Wow, that wasn't snobby at all.

  • Well, he had to promote his show somehow but yeah, you'd think with all these crazy celebrities in Hollywood that they would keep up with the entertainment & their guest's resume

  • I'm glad we don't get The View over here. Ian McKellen is great as ever. Can't wait for The Hobbit!

  • "Are you coming back in Harry Potter?" - LMFAO!!!!!

  • stupid bastards

  • did the black broad seriously ask him if he was coming back als Dumbledor? How stupid.

  • i miss the old prisoner :(

  • woopie is so stupid with her black hobbit shit , fucking dumb old bitch ,

  • Whoopee's little fo par, oh dear, will we ever see you again in Harry Potter........ silly question!!!!!!!!! Sir Ian was simply magnificent in PJ's Lord of the rings......a little respect PLEASE

  • Its faux pas, not 'fo par'.

    I"m not saying this to be rude or confrontational... I just thought you would like to know :-)

  • OH MY GOD! Miss blonde bimbo should talk about Ian's acting and NOT bring up political crap....geesh! SHUT HER UP!!!!

  • they should feed the blond woman to the hungry

  • That blonde bimbo's voice and accent cuts straight through me!

  • I'm from the UK and Elizabeth is such an idiot if she doesn't agree government being involved in healthcare then go private. I don't understand how people can possibly argue it's a bad thing. Of course the populations health should be maintained by the government who will provide the fairest service possible! It's a brilliant service although not perfect and I think our American cousins should definately adopt!

  • Like fuck it is. It costs too much and is ineffective as it isn't profit driven. Healthcare isn't guaranteed. Life, liberty and prosperity are.

  • What! We have a healthcare system that is ineffective? In a country where your healthcare is at the same corrupt standard of ex communist states such as Slovenia, Romania & Moldova you preach to me about an ineffective healthcare system? Although you don't really have a healthcare system, you have businesses designed to make a profit out of human life! Healthcare is guaranteed in the UK! Why 97% of the population back it! Healthcare is about treating the sick not about wealth or selfishness!

  • Exactly Americans obviously just care about themselves. My mum just had a operation on the NHS and it's changed her life completely in a good way!!!!

  • There's a cool story about the National Health Service. The Member of Parliament who initially brought up the idea of publicized healthcare in England brought it up immediately following World War 1. His rational was that if the government could afford to spend huge sums of money on war, which inevitably kills, surely the money could be found to keep people health. It's an rational the States should really adopt...

  • Omg IAN is very flamboyant!! haha i love it, I wonder if he is wtill with the Toronto boy!!

  • Comment removed

  • i might be completly wrong but when they say the govenment runs stuff it isnt right... isnt it that the govnernment workers do it and the government people are people who know what to do it not acterly like omba runing it (sorry bout the spelling)

  • What a bunch of mental...hobbits, really horrible interview.... I swear, if Whoopi has anything to do with forcing some sort of "equal rights representation", I'll be pissed. I don't give a crap when it comes to racial politics if it means keeping the story the way it was written. This is something that many people expect to be as purist as possible, not some stupid story written by hollywood.

  • OMG! How embarrising was it that Whoopi didn't knew that it was Richard Harris and Michael Gambon playing the role of Dumbledore?? For fucks sake, everyone who is a little bit interested in movies knows that and also know that Ian is playing Gandalf the grey and white.

  • HE CAME TO OUR SCHOOL!!!!!! x

  • Whoopi needs to lay off the weed.

  • Rock on Sir Ian! He is more WOMAN than that blond skank will ever be and more MAN then she will have have!

  • I am glad you libs dropped the whole "we are so caring and compassionate" routine. With the baby murdering, and comments like yours we KNEW you liberals were full of hatred.

  • Good to hear they're making the hobbit.

    It was an interesting point Whoopee brought up about race in the LotR. Tolkien did write it trying to mimic Norse and Anglican mythology, so it is a bit Euro-centric.

  • its spelt Whoopi

  • Whoops

  • I'd love to throw hot coffee in Elizabeth's face.

  • Me too, only it would be a waste of good coffee!!

  • That is so hard to watch. Every single one of them was outclassed by this man. No wonder America has such a bad reputation. So embarrassing.

  • I would like to apologize on behalf of Americans. We aren't all this bad, I promise!

    BTW, Whoopie, epic fail. Though, I do have to say, Sir Mckellen handled it wonderfully.

  • Who are these women? The minimum I would expect was that he would be treated with some respect. Blondie seemed eager to drag him into a fight about healthcare, while none of the others appeared to know either who he was, or anything about his career. Heck, they couldn't even read their cue cards properly. The standard of interviewer in the US must be really awful if this is any indication!

  • Yeah this is very poor on their part, and an insult to him and his work.

  • with due respect, Im pretty sure sir ian was the one who started the debate about healthcare

  • What...by having the swine flu jab? LOL

  • WHOOPI is fuccin dumb...there all dumb cause they all looked to see what he'd say.

  • hahaa i know... but maybe they thought wjoopi was on to something, like she heard a rumour that they didnt or something

  • how uncomfortable.

    they screwed up his role in Lord of the Rings, and they mis-pronounced Magneto, what a joke. and what is with Elizabeth attacking when he gets out.

    this was horrible, I feel awful that Ian McKellan had to withstand that.

  • They mispronounce Magneto, and you misspell his name, so I guess it's fair and square, isn't it?

  • Why Ian would go on this abysmal show is beyond me comprehension.

  • Ian Mckellen and Richard Dawkins have the best voices ever.

  • Big Whoops by Whoopi!

  • Interesting that people trust the government to educate their children, provide their police, make their roads but not to pay their doctors...

  • Wow. That was painful to watch. It slowly snowballed into a disaster. I feel terrible that such a highly revered and respected man had to waste his time on a show like this. I typically can handle clips of this show but these women were extremely ill prepared for this interview.

    Embarrassed to be associated with this country's society at times.

  • Sir Ian Mckellen is one of my favorite actors ever, it never bothered me that his sexual preference was of the same. Gandalf was my most adored character in lord of the rings thanks to Sir Ian Mckellen.

  • My god! How horrible was that??? SIr Ian is about the best British stage actor in the last forty years and those dumb cunts on The View treated him like shit! Only Joy was wise enough to stay out of the conversation. Good for her.

    The others showed what incredible buffoons they really are. Sir Ian demonstrated incredible class acting the proper, yet jovial, Englishman in the face of these diddling twats. I pray he never suffers such an humiliation again.

  • oh my god i want to shoot myself. they think hes dumbledore, and mispronounce magneto. wtf? what a terrible, terrible terrible show.

  • Americans seem to have something against government handling health..

    Do they also have something against them handling our childrens education, our police forces and our military?

    Also - what is that argument about in "what order will they distribute the medicine".. Well - how about in the order of "need" resulting in everybody getting it instead of only the ones with the fattest wallets as is the case of the US today. You republicans really have this one wrong... BIG TIME!

  • And what would that be, exactly?

    Being gay doesn't require your "belief" for it to exist.

  • One Wizard much like another one ... LMAO

  • YAY for free health service :)

  • whoopi is such a dumbass.

  • Hey Whoopi, it's called do your research! You are an actor yourself! You should know better.

  • Hasselbeck= Massive Fail + Embarrassment.

    Well done Sir Ian!!!

  • agreed!

  • What a perfect gentlemen... how tedious it must be to be surrounded by such ignorant twats.

  • Why is it so important in america to give twits like elizabeth a voice

  • I wonder what would've happened if Hasslebeck found out he was gay. LOL

  • I was just wondering, actually, how Hasslebeck managed to keep herself from doing whatever it is Republicans do when they encounter a gay person. Also, how does Whoopi ruin that so thoroughly???

  • How do Republicans handle a gay person? My brother in law is gay and married to another man(legally in Ohio). We act no different than anyone else. The only right that gives a crap is the kooks just like on the left kooks who are just as crazy. Most "normal" people could care less if someone is gay or straight.

  • awkward!

  • hes such a brilliant actor

  • LOL! Whoopie..... what a whooping mistake.

  • She is so stupied, shut up Elisabeth.

  • That was painful to watch. The women were ill-prepared and or just plain wrong. As usual, Elizabeth just blathers away -- talks over her guests -- and seems to think that other people care about her views -- which are illogical, uneducated, and deluded.

  • YOU DON'T INTERRUPT IAN MCKELLEN!!!!!

    "Do you think you're creepy?"

    "I always try to be lovable and kissable."

  • Preach on. Preach on.

  • God Hasselbeck is so damn annoying! Stop talking about things you do not know about!

  • OMG it is a train wreck in slow motion.

    Sadly, programmes like this is what gives Americans a really bad name abroad. Ill informed statements, made about topics they have no idea about, said on a platform where many people will believe every word. They really shouldn't be allowed by themselves.

    Well done to Ian McKellen -- a true gentleman
