who else is on a Joaquin Phoenix interview spree

[@SpiderBatFan]

realslimbayze yep ! And can’t help but think of a certain moment from Joker !

[@stinsonko11]

Joaquin is comfortable with Conan and Fallon. Kimmel made him embarrassed. I don't know why Kimmel digs so much of a person's life.

[@SpiderBatFan]

Stinson Ko yeah, that and I think showing that clip of him was really inappropriate

[@exclamationpointman3852]

They keep popping up

[@030gitalutfi7]

im guilty

[@GerardoBecerra597]

I so wish Conan interviewed Joaquin for The Joker movie.

[@ARCtrooperblueleader]

@Gerardo Becerra - Agreed. Instead, we got Kimmel.

[@randomrick463]

Same here, I feel it never came to be due to the fact that Conan ripped on Joaquin Phoenix's look when they released the first image of Arthur out of make up for the movie, or maybe we're just unfortunate, and got the shitshow interview with Jimmy Kimmel for no other reason than that's life.

Wow, Conan is so funny and accommodating in this, since he knows Joaquin doesn't love to talk a lot during interviews. He's such a professional and a humble person.

[@Missjunebugfreak]

I agree. Conan's the best.

[@RuthwikRao]

It's not even surprising tbh, he's still and has always been one of the if not the best late night show hosts and the most funny. Craig Ferguson was great as well, but Conan adds so much to his show with his unique humor, quick wit, his remotes, how he incorporates his employees into his sets in the most fun and wholesome ways, everything about team coco is amazing.

@Steve Zubrowski and he didn't just segue, he acknowledged that the question existed and resolved it with a "we have no time and need to move on" which reaaally helped minimize any potential awkwardness. If he had acted like he never asked the question, it would have caused slight tension.

[@Tony-mo5sz]

Truly a testament to the skill of Conan. No awkward moments, seemingly flowing interview. Just compare it to the other interviews with both jimmys and even letterman. Granted they are years apart but Joaquin is notoriously difficult to interview.

[@lilosweet24]

Ik conan is a great interviewer but just realized no wonder he hadn't any awkwardness cuz let's be honest no one is basically more awkward than he is no wonder he can shake off those moments well 😂💔

Oh, if only Joaquin got on Conan while promoting "Joker". He was on Kimmel, Fallon, and seemed rather uncomfortable, but I'd like to see him interact with Conan once again. Perhaps, it could be one of his better interview experiences.

[@iammsatrio1951]

The one with Fallon is good, though.

[@j_j8758]

Kimmel is by far the worst ever. I never watch his interviews. He is so insensitive. I remember once a guest was talking about River . About what a great young actor he was and said that he missed him. And immediately after that Kimmel said, Well that's a bummer. I watched this year's ago and still cannot forget. I haven't watched Joaquin's interview but I can imagine what it would be like.

[@OverAndOver303]
