[dunderheadflynn]

these pretzels are making me thirsty

[abcdefg97579]

Such a great film!

[annieemanniee]

seriously this movie NEVER gets old. sooo beyond it's years! :D flove them!

[moulinnewsies83]

i'd take a woody allen over a ryan gosling any day.

any day.

[moulinnewsies83]

i'd take a woody allen over a ryan gosling any day.

any day.

[IDF1987]

Woody Allen of the 1970's was great.  Woody Allen after that, not so much.

[Quex01]

@IDF1987 Agreed!

[KoolStoryBreh]

I tried to laugh..honestly I tried

[RioAbajoBelen]

One of the best movies ever made about relationships. Where's my shopping bag and the cafeteria?

[javyfights]

are these jokes?

[TheMasterSlasher]

@javyfights No, it's characterization.

[vaughnsalem]

Woody Allen is wonderful ,,he has been a genius of comedy ,I hope most people can see this

[suune]

I think he might be jewish.

[hondaissace]

slow and overrated....

[86753090811]

@hondaissace i see what you did there!! lol

[hondaissace]

@86753090811 himym yoo !!!!

[ricchardo]

Maybe it's just me but I can't understand what he says after "There's an old joke about two women who are at a ????????" I can't understand the next part, if anyone can explain it, I'd be grateful. Thanks,

[brotherhersh]

@ricchardo "Two elderly women are at a Catskill mountain resort..."

[PinkMimosa]

@ricchardo "Catskill Mountain Resort." Sort of like the set for Dirty Dancing, if you've ever seen it.

[jesienna83]

I just looooooove this man!

[MrSratticusFinch]

I get to do this monologue in my drama class in a couple days! :D

[kathrynhgassman]

I think you can still enjoy Woody Allen's films while disagreeing with his choices about marrying his step-daughter. I absolutely adore his movies, but I definitely don't agree with what he did. But what can you do, she's a grown-ass woman now, and you have to leave it at that.

[redrocks222]

great movie, but he is pretty much worthless as a human being

[riddleman65]

@redrocks222

You can't say he wrote a movie you like and in the same sentence say he's worthless as a human being. I don't think you know what worthless means.

[marybethcold1]

This man raised and then married his stepdaughter. Oh, yes he is...Brilliant!

[Trelli28]

@marybethcold1 he's disgusting. perv

[MrBuch169169]

And to make it worse - the character is just him. And again, he totally gets away with it xD

[acarouselofantics]

"I know.....and such small portions." I wish the writing for comedies was this good and I wish I could write like that.

[bapyou]

I'm the drooling guy with the shopping bag screaming about socialism. That's what I've become.

[mradamcooley]

AMAZNG FILM

[MonicaVarnell]

great

[maftiya]

george contanza anyone?

[deansusky]

Woody the best we have ,,alive ,,,

[ElysetheKraken]

Woody Allen moves around a lot when he talks. Brilliant guy, though.

[mansitopinta]

I cried at the end of annie hall. I miss my girlfriend.

hipster!

[technologic21]

Story of my life.

[ahmedsido]

I would never want to belong to any club that would have someone like me for a member

[ingridflewaway]

sometime i feel like i'm the female version of him just less funny.

[ThePolskamafia4]

Wow he is a PERFECT fit for AntZ!

[saqibk1]

Nice movie with the untouchable woody at his best, nice jew. (Kubrick liked his movies too).

[SuperHeroMania]

why does he always play the same roles?

[skutratufahija]

@SuperHeroMania

it's woody allen character... he's auteur director and that's one of his most important symbols.

[brooklynbuglet]

@SuperHeroMania because he can't really act, so he plays roles that are like him in real life.

[lebarosky]

It's as big as a Buick. It's the size of New Jersey. (Whacks with a broom.)

[xvoy2002]

No matter whether you like him or not.. consider this. The man has actually created his own genre... There are horror films, comedies, drams, ect... then there are two directors ... you have a Hitchcock film,, or a Woody Allen film.. got to love that about the guy.

He did well. I always love his films. just so different.

[Metropolis3003]

@xvoy2002 It's not a genre, it's a director's style. A short-lived period of less-artistically-endowed people trying to mimic that style does NOT "create his own genre." This happens in books all the time... nobody considers that to create a genre.

[xvoy2002]

@Metropolis3003 You MUST be joking. Either you just took some kind of course in school and feel the need to repeat something you THINK you learned, or your are a pretend ''intellectual'' who feels the need to speak , even though its nonsense.

[riddleman65]

@xvoy2002

No, he's right. You can't put Hitchcock into his own genre any more than you can put Lang or Kubrik into their own category. You can tell you're watching a Kubrik film, and you can tell you're watching a Woody Allen film, but that doesn't make them any less a drama or sci-fi or what have you. And that's a novelty that's not exclusive to film. Like that other guy said, it happens in books and music all the time. 

[uneedtherapy42]

people either love him or hate him.... I'll go with the former

[kocean1]

Woody

[fran22928]

no one can do what he did the way he did it

[HoppiTeam]

First video blog ever.

[thedoctorand]

29 people belong to a club that would have someone like themselves as members. :P

[davidmjeong926]

This movie defines the word "Bittersweet"

[Onlineatron]

How can he just tell us his character? How can he just stare at a camera and outline his character? How can he do this and it be acceptable?

GENIUS

[SwordInAir]

@Onlineatron Because his character is autobiographical so we can sense the truth in it

[SwordInAir]

@Onlineatron Why wouldn't it be acceptable?

[andrepassari1]

Adoro os filmes de Woody Allen. Ele retrata como ninguém as neuroses do mundo contemporâneo. Com um humor fino e irônico. Mundo moderno, mundo complexo e fragmentado. Convido a assistirem a um vídeo-poema sobre a perplexidade do homem contemporâneo, com a poesia “Perplexidade em paz”, imagens de grande força e a música “Sonata ao luar” de Beethoven. Procurar no youtube por: Perplexidade em paz

[folladordeprostis]

@andrepassari1 woody Mais grande

[declanappleseed]

He sounds like Snagglepuss.

[hotstixx]

superb,never gets old.

[peanutman64]

he plays that guy in the movie antz

[unlimitedfunlol]

"I never want to join a club who would have me as a member." One of the best quotes in history.

[PinkyLeclercq]

love this!

[PinkyLeclercq]

I live by these jokes...

[grafonolafavorite]

Allright Mr. Allen. This is it. You make me laugh. Oh. And you make me think. This is the site for the game show "You make me laugh,You make me think". Right?

[imreallyjin]

this is how I feel about a girl... FUCK MY LIFE. oh wait, Woody Allen taught me that i'm not the only one who feels this way about love... thank (*blank, because i'm athiest. <--- bad joke, i know)!

thank you woody allen, for making movies other people can relate to with & LAUGH AT! X]

[imreallyjin]

oops, spelled atheist wrong.

this is why i hate english.

[pleasedontask]

great film, loved how stream-of-consciousness it is

[freakichic168]

this video was a lifesaver. i needed it for my essay on the opening of the film. thanks so much for putting this up cos i needed some of the quotes. ur awesome! :)

[cdectv]

I really liked Woody a lot in the days before it got complicated.

[93johnk]

i love woody allen because hes nerdy as hell but still likeable.

[RadarKat73080]

1:09 Glenn Beck????

[baillou2]

@RadarKat73080 HAAAAAAAAAAAA HAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think so!

[RadarKat73080]

@baillou2 Sounds like him.

[natedaug1]

@RadarKat73080 Lol, yeah, Glenn Beck.

[KoH4711]

@RadarKat73080 Keep your politics out.

[RadarKat73080]

@KoH4711 "Middle-aged guy, screaming about socialism?" Are you telling me that's not him?

[folladordeprostis]

@RadarKat73080 Glenn beck hates socialism,woody kind of like it hahahahh FUCK GLENN BECK

[folladordeprostis]

@richd305 Ok vote for glenn beck in 2012 you far right dumbass hahahaha GLENN BECK-SARAH PALIN 2012 HAHAHAHAAH

[richd305]

@folladordeprostis and you go be a good little worker bee for the state you mindless, do as your told, leftist.

[folladordeprostis]

@richd305 If you are so conservative,wtf are you doing watching woody allen videos/?? go watch fox news videos or hanna montana

[pimphofoo]

@folladordeprostis Yeah because liberals are so obsessed with open minded balanced coverage, like Keith Olbermann. lmao.

[RenegadeEntertainmen]

@folladordeprostis dumbass i'm conservative and i love woody allen.

[folladordeprostis]

@RenegadeEntertainmen Really??? tea party people always talk shit about woody allen

[RenegadeEntertainmen]

@folladordeprostis they might. i'm not really a party line follower but i am conservative and i think hes funny as hell. sorry about the dumbass

[folladordeprostis]

@RadarKat73080 I prefer to listen to glenn hughes than glenn

beck

[RadarKat73080]

@folladordeprostis Ever listen to Glenn Beck while high? He almost makes sense then!

[folladordeprostis]

@RadarKat73080 GLENN BECK-SARAH PALIN 2012 HAHAHAHAAH

[RadarKat73080]

@folladordeprostis The dream ticket of every comedian!

[VanceJoudrey]

Classic!

[abluecarrot1]

It's Alvy SINGER! Who? ALVY SINGER from the Johnny Carson show!

[andrewyeardley1000]

hi, recently bought annie hall and loved every second of it. I need help remembering a woody allen film that i saw parts of as a kid of maybe 9 or 10, all i remember is woody walking through a park with his friend and under a bridge.

[Gronk61]

@andrewyeardley1000 You may be thinking of "Manhattan" (but no walking - just sitting). Look at clip "Manhattan Part 3/10" and watch from 8:00.

[dliaa]

@andrewyeardley1000 , maybe its Everyone says i love you, if you search it it will appear in the third option, the scene of woody walking with a woman

[MrTelltale]

Woody Allen is the only  B I G philosopher who still lives.

Hopefully he does not consider it differently.

[pearlpitt]

to me the best opening line a movie ever had..the most intelligent movie i ever saw...the one movie i have seen the maximum no. of times...woody allen my fav director...woody-keaton, the most interesting pair to grace the screen...Annie Hall - a giant step in the history of movie making.

[xlcomicDC]

wow...he was young once...and he's finally gone online though,

his first official site

[idiotstale]

Best opening ever. This movie is the greatest masterpiece of all times.

Woody Allen is a genius.

[railcar123]

Great movie!

[2SXC2H8]

Fucking Jew

[theemceemurdah]

@2SXC2H8 very intelligent comment you putz.

[2SXC2H8]

@theemceemurdah Fuck off Jew

[keysersoze0bisto]

@2SXC2H8 i'm guessing you weren't breastfed

[MrGakn]

I'm so sorry he's old now... I wished he could make more and more films...By the way, Annie Hall is a masterpiece.

[milascave]

Correct. That was a typo. Now, does anybody know the answer to my question?

Any Freuedians out there who've read the book?

[BrucknerMotet]

This is my personal profile video on E-Harmony. I'm still waiting for an E-Response.

[baracktimusprime]

1:06 you mean a Tea Partier?

[milascave]

I've been arguing with freinds who first said "I'd never want to belong to a club that would have me as a member." Was it realy in Freud's "with and it's relationship to the uncosciouse" or did woody make that up?

[stoprainingonme]

@milascave i think it's 'Freud's wit' (not 'with')

[ishtarg8]

I hadn't realised until right now, but that Groucho joke, about not wanting to be a member of a club that would have him as a member? That perfectly encapsulates the entire history of my relationships with women. Why would I want to date someone fucked up enough to want to date me?

[avenueyay]

what year was tthis?

[Ringo0008]

I love this film so much but would someone please mind explaining to me how the first 'joke' is funny? I don't mean that Woody Allen isn't funny, I'm just curious as to what the joke is. I've never quite understood it.

[majawow]

@Ringo0008

it s paradox if we don t like smth we normally don t like more of it, so we complain about our lives but still want more of it. (like portions in the restaurant: bad and so small)

[Ringo0008]

@majawow

Oh, right. I get it now. Well appreciated. Thank you.

[majawow]

@Ringo0008

You ll understand even better when you come to 40 :))

[94981745]

I love woody

[15minoflame]

i love you !

, I'm not a, I'm not a morose type, I'm not a depressed character. I, I, I uh, you know, I was a reasonably happy kid, I guess. I was brought up in Brooklyn during World War Two...

[issyvoo2]

"The balding virile type?" Dream on, Woody.

[SarahRyan2002]

Watch a funny short film on Youtube, Just type in 'Sarah Ryan Deluded' You will either love it or like it.

[gabrielfilippo]

woody allen is god.

[lewars1912]

Love Woody Allen films. My favourites are Annie Hall, and Manhattan.

[SarahRyan2002]

Check out a short movie 'sarah ryan deluded' You will either love it or hate it.

[21dandandan12]

I love this movie so much. But to me it sounds like this has been speed up. His voice sounds higher thn normal.

[FuzzKid35]

Actually I love this movie

[FuzzKid35]

Oh my god, I've heard my dad use that opening joke a million times in conversation.

I really AM Jewish.

[Shritz09]

one of the best movies i`ve ever seen

[ItBrandonSilver]

You obviously haven't seen alot of movies then.

[artysmokes]

Great opening to a brilliant film. It would have been amazing to see Woody do a stand-up routine in a comedy club in the early 70s. If you can't relate to his jokes, you're probably very stupid. Or a happy bastard.

[dany79v]

There seems to be a part of this movie related to every aspect of my life. Annie Hall is the I Ching!

[Ph3L1z14n0]

Sorry, I don't speak english very well, can anyone tell me what Woody's first joke is ? I can't quite get where the elderly women go ...

[grygus]

@Ph3L1z14n0 They go to a Catskill mountain resort. The location itself isn't very important to the joke, but there is a subtext that the ladies are probably Jewish; this is a central theme in Woody's humor.

[KaiChippi]

@Ph3L1z14n0 food is bad

and the other says, it's such small portion.

meaning, loneliness and misery...

[jhvscs]

@Ph3L1z14n0 they go to a Catskills mountain resort - I'm not really sure what that is, but I don't think has much meaning to the joke. I might be being ignorant there, but you can still enjoy the joke without it lol

[VinylKid3000]

This movie is hilarious.

[Super8StrikesBack]

So damn good that it doesn't matter what he does in his personal life, what are you all paparazzi working for People magazine?... Give me a break, you can't write or act half as good as Allen if you tried.

[linkin49park182]

The first time I entered Woody Allen's world was when I watched Annie Hall, and I knew I never wanted to leave. Check out Purple Rose of Cairo, that is also one of my Woody Allen favorites.

[DawnOfARevolution]

I watched Annie Hall when I was 9, and I will never forget this intro. I'm actually writing my college application essay on Woody Allen influencing my humor. ahahah! Love him!!

[KingMoses3]

i watch this clip about every 3 days. i love woody

[meliachild]

Happy birthday woody!!

[Galfaro]

Genius genius

[hotstixx]

as openers go,it doesnt get any better than this...well maybe broadway danny rose.

[BenNCM]

you fucking tool. she was no relation to him. thumbs down for you son.

[dopes2infinity]

@BenNCM sorry, ADOPTED daughter, is that ok then? Dickhead.

[AgainstTheWind001]

Very Freudian of you to upload this, I hope you get the message.

Here's a Psychology lesson.... look up...

The Century of Self

Edward Bernays was Freuds American nephew that helped teach the government to brainwash us.

[jammyjo610]

bewlaybertha...think he was making an analogy between life and the fact that the food was bad and also in small portions..he says life is also bad full of pain loneliness etc..and it also ends soon..analogous to the food in small portions...

[TheChuckgofer]

The Joke is, if he's so not funny, why is he called a comedian?

[acromonopolis]

existentialism at its finest.

[irritatedindian]

As crappy as the food is, the complaint is that there isn't enough.

[untitledashimself]

Duh, I feel stupid now. Thanks.

[Jadabh3]

If the food IS "so bad" why is she complaining about how much of it there is?

[bewlaybrutha]

The women complain that the food is bad. Then that the portions are too small. Why would you want larger portions of bad food?

[NyteRyd2r]

Yeah, two people already answered his question. You're about 3 weeks too late.

[adaytimedilema]

Think of it this way: If the food is bad enough to complain about, it makes no sense to complain that there's so little of it. That's why it's funny

[NyteRyd2r]

Gee. Thanks. Of all 4 explanations, yours was the best.

[templedh]

@bewlaybrutha that's why it's a joke....

[irritatedindian]

This is my favorite film of all time.

[Jadabh3]

Insane comment

[MetallicOpeth]

hilarious, this man is just awesome
