An Exclusive Interview with John Cleese

[anthonzi]

4:00 Absolutely preposterous. The world is far more educated than it was decades ago. The audience has simply increased, and thus diversified (as well as to include the less educated perhaps), making it more difficult for everyone to grasp jokes about your particular culture.

[P0mt3]

@anthonzi I agree with this, actually. I think there is a tendency for people to take a very negative view of their younger fellows, especially in the society we currently live in. But I think in large part, this is just a misunderstanding. Surely, I've seen plenty of dummies around my age who don't care enough about the world around them to truly educate themselves, but that is only a very small part of the young culture. The internet can educate as well as entertain. Most smart people know it.

[Chroniclesofthenerds]

Totally wasn't my nose..

I think it was Mikey. he was all congested then..

[dropxdeadxdinosaur]

This is BEYOND awesome!

And by the way, I can hear somebody's nose whistling throughout the whole video. It made me giggle, though forcing me to watch this multiple times as well. I guess that's not a bad thing.

[Chroniclesofthenerds]

it was dan, hahahaha. and thanks :D

[Idontwannamakeavideo]

How did you guys get an interview with him?

[Chroniclesofthenerds]

it was pure luck

[ruhue]

i thought this would be fun, and it was, but what really stood out were the thoughtful comments about the internet and humor! right on the nose, it is.

:)

[Chroniclesofthenerds]

haha, thanks :D

One of my heroes and a big influence on my writing and videos! I love Peter Cook and Harold Lloyd--I'm very familiar with the influences Cleese mentioned, which I guess dates the hell out of me---nice interview and setting. Great way to start the day. And this is why the internet is so cool.

[Chroniclesofthenerds]

thanks you so very much :D

[datsunamibomber]

Five stars for John Cleese indeed. I was actually envious enough when I heard this was happening, I put my Flying Circus dvds on and had a Monty Python night.

[Chroniclesofthenerds]

that sounds like a good nite, ours was better :p

[mischifKES]

he's so right about the internet being like gossip, just love him too cool. didn't really like borat either.. just humour for the basest of human kind, too easy.

[Chroniclesofthenerds]

he's 100% rite. i cant dispute the cleese

[homegrownzeros]

Actually a little hilarious.

That is your claim to fame.
