70 plus years old and still the coolest dude in the room...

[@adam-ll1yf]

Yoda Matrix I’m jealous at the fact that I will never reach the level of coolness that Harrison Ford reached in his lifetime. Like seriously... this guy is Han Solo, Indiana Jones, Deckard... three of the most iconic characters ever!

[@JesusMagicPanties]

@@adam-ll1yf "the level of coolness". :D You will never get the level of H.F. for simply you never will be H.F. himself. You can get the coolnes of Adam Taucher and I am sure you will succed the same "level" , as long as you stop whining the toxic rubbish about yourself of course. You have no right to do such a thing to Adam Taucher. This is not cool. This is crime. You deserve to get some punches from Adam Taucher as a traitor.

[@ezeztztz]

"I'm not interested in bringing anything back,I just wanna make movies",great answer from Harrison

[@StuFX]

"He sent me a novella and I was intrigued by it" "Did you read it?" "-___________-"

[@Argumemnon]

Actors are assistant storytellers. What a beautiful way to say it.

[@jazzx251]

"When you walk onto a set lit by Roger Deakins .... it's real." Too right - Deakins' work is astonishing on the new Blade Runner.

[@u0oo0u]

Harrison is 75 years old, still in good shape and awesome

[@JurassicLion2049]

Harrisons Deni Villenuve impression was spot on 😂👌🏼

[@PeteCastellano]

So true hahahahah

[@kuribo04]

+Jean Loup T wtf

[@FrancoisDressler]

Jean Loup T You're a clown

[@vincenttalley5938]

I love how every time Harrison Ford got a question about how hard he worked on the movie - He always gave an answer like "Uhhhh yeah no shit I try to do a good job" 😆

[@TheRubberStudiosASMR]

Harrison is one of the funniest guys on this planet. Effortless

[@watonemillion]

Umm no. he's very unfunny and Harrison would be the first to agree. He's a cool guy, though

[@TheRubberStudiosASMR]

So do you hang out with him often?

[@kuribo04]

+Wat You are objectively wrong

[@Talis7212]

Harrison is such a legend

[@echelongirl9685]

"You mean he cares about what he's doing?" Thank you. 👏 Love you Ford ❤

[@jmkmusicpedals]

I want to imagine that the vintage red Ford Mustang parked outside the window is Harrison's and that he parked it there to keep an eye on it.

[@afonsolucas2219]

I would do the same if I was him. Beautiful car!

[@samsonknight6888]

I imagine he parked it there because he has a better adventure to go on than give this millenial douche an interview. You know he just dyed the gray in his hair to look more mature.

[@joeneedstosleep]

You see the grey sideburns on the "millennial douche?"

[@MrSFSTUDIOS]

Nah. More likely is the black GMC to the left. A celebrity like Ford would be delivered in one of those by a driver.

[@americanslime]

I appreciate how straightforward Ford is about how vapid these questions are. It always kind of disappoints me when actors respond to these absurd questions with canned enthusiasm.

[@jasoncarter9200]

" Did you learn anything from Gosling?" "No."

[@claudiaquerciolli6979]

Bellissimo.Anna.

[@VaaaleriaYM]

"Notoriously committed? You mean he cares about what he's doing" Wish more people would understand this and ease up on Leto

[@PixelSwitch7]

He mailed a pig corpse, anal beads, and used condoms to his coworkers unannounced.

[@VaaaleriaYM]

PixelSwitch7 Lmao that’s not all true and it’s not that serious, cast members joked and laughed it off, I suggest you should too.

[@Buxtonnes]

they are just like doctors

[@echelongirl9685]

That wasn't true. Stop believing fucking rumors. Leave him alone. He's a really professional actor.

[@protestmyhero5613]

NEWSFLASH: He's bad

[@thedetective9631]

Harrison ford is effortlessly chill but you can tell he's a real old fashioned man.

[@elizabelle1967]

Wow, just learnt he's 75! He looks great!

[@Gravyballs2011]

Best film I've seen in over 20 years!

[@FormatorBlack]

One of...that and Interstellar!

[@dls8470]

I rarely go to a theater to see a movie now days but this is one I want to see on a big screen with big sound.

[@Azzurri_203]

Love seeing him actually excited to promote the sequel. His attitude with Star Wars made it clear he didn't want to return with that franchise, don't blame him.

[@HOMIEDG]

Harrison ford talking about the artist roger deakins is, made me so happy! And also I love how he said they used a lot of practical sets because why would you need roger deakins if they were just using pure green screens!

[@hessu275]

This film looks perfect, can’t wait!

[@jeremiahbenavente8557]

You know, watching this interview really conveys the loss of love for the magic of Cinema. Not in the way of his performance, but rather for the fans love of his beloved portrayed characters. Makes me realize that I'm not a Harrison Ford fan. I'm a Han Solo, Indiana Jones, and Rick Decard fan.

[@juancarlossepulvedazamora7293]

From all the interviews I've been viewing recently, I've come to think that Harrison Ford feels particularly proud about being in Bladerunner movies. The others are great commercial blockbusters, but he just loves being part of the story told by Scott and Villeneuve. In his own words, being an "assistant storyteller" to this "cathedral of a movie" that Bladerunner is.

[@Pixelkip]

what does this even mean? Lol, this man played these characters dont disparage what he's given to these movies its not just about the characters imagined by the writers alone.. its the actors who tie it all together.

[@control1922]

I really hope there's a third blade runner film that maintains the standard of the first two. The original and 2049 are both absolute masterpieces.

[@jazzx251]

love the uni-directional microphone - Harrison seems to love it, and knows how to use his deep voice to get his points across. Alot of other celebs don't really know what to do with that mic. But Harrison's old-school!

[@tcscushing]

Thank you, Harrison, for sharing this with us. So many of us have loved you for so many years.

[@kickapoo242]

One of my favorite Ford interviews. I enjoy seeing him talk about something with an attitude that conveys his interest and intrigue in the projects he's working on. Especially considering how reluctant he was to return as Han, it's nice to see that he was actually appreciative of and interested in this role and story.

[@cbstarchild02]

absolutely loved the way he referred to Roger Deakins

[@lpquagmire3621]

Against all odds, they delivered a sequel that can stand with the original -- BLADE RUNNER 2049 is a genuine sci-fi masterpiece.

[@NotthatRossKemp]

One of the greatest movies made in the last 20 years. It's destined to become a classic of Sci-fi cinema!

[@hellogoodbye753]

Just saw this last night. I REALLY enjoyed it. It was pretty damn long though. Like almost a 3 hour movie. But wow it was incredible. Visually and storywise it's really amazing.

[@MaryRod09]

Harrison Ford is not only hilarious, but he’s a smart man. No, wonder he was too smart for the interviewer.

[@mikebasil4832]

Blade Runner was commented by Robert J. Sawyer as being the last great breakthrough SF film that probably ever will be. Even if that's debatable in reflection of The Matrix, Children Of Men, District 9 and Anon, Mr. Sawyer's comment is still enough to make me take my own SF fandom much more seriously. Thank you, Harrison, for bringing Han Solo, Indiana Jones and Rick Deckard full circle. 🌎🌌🖖🏻

[@AllThingsFilm1]

I love Harrison Ford's work. I am excited about BR2049 as well. Regarding this interviewer, I've seen him interview other performers and he is extremely green behind the ears when it comes to interviewing. And like others pointed out, he doesn't seem to pay attention to responses by the interviewee to his questions, often asking the same question twice after it's already been answered.

[@432Restoration]

This interview is like a battle

[@dimitreze]

Him and Michael J. Fox are my childhood heroes. ☺

[@Agerskiold]

Harrison Is fantastic (The interviewer don't really get anything - it's his job and it's showing)

[@gfox9295]

It might be a bit intimidating to interview a star actor you've been watching all 30, 40, whatever years of your life, no?

[@infantry3358]

Harrison Ford is fucking awesome!...young or old, he’s a great actor in any role!!

[@filmlovinamerican2309]

The audience members had better questions than the interviewer

[@JimNortonsAlcoholism]

Can't wait for this movie. Looks amazing

[@protestmyhero5613]

He actually makes a very good point about how green screens and CGI can ruin the acting atmosphere for an actor - maybe this is a factor that explains why so many CGI films, apart from looking nice, are absolute crap

[@chuckmorton8823]

Harrison knows EVERYTHING about the Replicants and the Blade Runners ... so awesome

[@josephtalksalot9182]

An awesome interview

[@Brook11223]

This definitely has parallels to the first film just like Deckard Agent K is paired up with a replicant. The new replicant that's going to hunt Ryan's character is an amalgamation of Sean Goings character and little bit of Rutger Hauers character from the original film. I think in one of the trailers they teased Sean Youngs character through a photograph.

[@pigstronaut726]

Dave Batista is in blade runner too! So many greats in this movie!!!

[@guileniam]

harrison ford is sitting there and people are just walking past outside?!

[@atarian345]

It's amazing what you could do with window tint these days.

[@anonymousanthropoid]

he's so amazing :")

[@solstice2318]

Stepped into a church I passed along the way Well, I get down on my knees and I pretend to pray. You know the preacher likes the cold He knows I'm gonna stay. California, California dreamin', on such a winters day.

[@jaydarklighter9441]

Harrison Ford just plain ol' fashioned rules - if Kurt Russell was Star-Lord's Dad then I hope it's not offensive to say I think Harrison is Star-Lord's Granddad

[@acjones810]

He can't not point that finger!

[@istvanbally2817]

Being from Hungary it's kind of sad to hear that he didn't have a good time here. I was under the impression that he was. But, of course, who would want to be away from home and family for such a long time. I wouldn't.

[@peterherron4222]

you know this film is going to be good because Harrison Ford is at his least belligerent

[@Anubis22774]

Peter Herron Ford’s best performance to date.

[@ArchEnemy969]

Bus driver analogy was perfect

[@Wulfcry]

5:40 That explanation did it for me.

[@ZoneTelevision]

"WITNESS" was one of his best films

[@TobeyStarburst]

Great review by Harrison.

[@jdwrench]

Ford is catatonic as always. I have had this deep suspicion that he is a replicant all the way back to the return of the Jedi.

[@Mutyi80]

great answer after great answer and was really funny. I start to get to like him again

[@moeezS]

11:58 "Wait a second, 'notoriously committed'? You mean he cares about what he's doing? There's a lot of that going around. He's not the only one." Damn right, Harrison Ford. "Are you a perfectionist on set?" "Yeah. Compared to what, not giving a rat's ass?" C'mon Ricky, what are these silly questions, usually you're better than this.

[@gabrielbendix]

Awesome guy!

[@sandradb9151]

Why does the host always have to ask silly questions? You can't ask silly questions to Harrison Ford! Because he burns you with his sarcasm and you don't even notice! ahah!

[@bobdick815]

I love how all his responses are basically "yeah, I'm gonna give it my best. It's my job" hahaha

[@mignonthon]

"its a cathedral of a moivie"

[@voicetube]

At 8:58 I wouldn't be surprised if people who are into classic cars may have been more interested in what was going outside the window than what Harrison was saying (at least for a few seconds or so :-) That might be a red classic Circa mid-1960s Mustang, if my memory (No Blade Runner pun intended) serves me.

[@juomariturmio]

Harrison looks like he could fall asleep at any given moment.

[@afonsolucas2219]

So, what do ya think they're gonna do for Indy 5? I bet they're gonna use the young CG stuff on Harrison, for a couple of scenes of course.

[@protestmyhero5613]

lol you can tell he really didn't give a shit about working with Leto from that answer HA

[@gekiryudojo]

watched it on the 6th, it was epic!

[@kilamingaro3564]

I really appreciate Harrison Ford coming out to support this movie, because he really dont like talking about his movies. He likes the money

[@sclogse1]

That's kind of a dumb thing to say. You're not an 11 year old teen age girl who needs to say it to have some false sense of her own security.

[@step2424]

He struggled for 15 years and basically gave up before he made it. He deserves what he's got.

[@kay_girl_97]

You're an idiot.

[@dannyhill7399]

He obviously cares about the movies, it's just when you have to spend months promoting the movie answering the same questions for over 40 years it gets tedious

[@thailakhampo]

He's just fed up. I would have been too. This guy is simply a blockbuster icon...so yeah. Give him the money.

[@litote9]

Could the interviewer pretend to laugh any more wildly at every mild quip?

[@jonlesliehaynes]

I stopped watching after the second question...why would you ask these questions?

[@michaeldonovan4793]

such a true human replicant...harrison...

[@johnnymoraes23]

Harrison Ford = Acid humour, lol.

[@somewhereintime8672]

Best movie in 2017 by FAR

[@cobaltfalcon9458]

What was the song he was referencing?

[@pjschroeder76]

cALIFORNIA dREAMIN'

[@asia911]

Probably "California Dreamin".

[@MRZ12000]

Fo you read the script in the morning or you have to be motivated by certain thoughts

[@ajwaddanwarr3409]

Man seeing Harrison ford like this makes me really sad. I grew up on his body of works and its scary to imagine a world where he won't be making movies.

[@labber]

strange questions sometimes

[@mtproductions5869]

Here's a great review of the Director's cut too kzbin.info/www/bejne/eInad4aprb2cjJY

[@HierophanticRose]

Definitely seems more interested in it than Star Wars

[@ytuser_3122]

Talk to him about Indiana Jones and he’ll talk about it with a huge smile and a lot of passion

[@Brook11223]

Niander Wallace's goal from the clips they released on KZbin looks like wants to replace the human population with replicants. See Leto's character as this hybrid type of character who can be a human and a replicant is kind of scary.

[@grodard9]

He sounds like a functional alcoholic. Liked the part about the advantages of real sets where the actors don't have to be told what is supposed to surround them over the green screens. True cinema.

[@rODIUMuk]

grodard9 he points so slooooow

[@cobaltfalcon9458]

Am I the only one who remembers, a couple of years ago, rumors of Christopher Nolan was going to do a Blade Runner prequel movie?

[@CaptAlias]

u damn right, it would have been awesome to have nolan, but i personally would not want nolan to have done it, because i love nolan's original films, and i don't want him helming another franchise unless it was "BOND" at least for ONE movie.

[@vincybadman871]

He would’ve been also acceptable...Dennis, Fincher and Nolan can do no wrong (they can go “meh”, but not wrong)

[@cobaltfalcon9458]

Those 3 are amazing choices. Those 3 also happen to be 3 of my 5 personal favorite filmmakers, but only 4 would make some sort of sense

[@sclogse1]

I think Rutgar Hauer would have been a fine director.

[@TheBestCommenterEVER]

I'm so fucking glad that didn't happen, he would have ruined it so hard.

[@chuckybastard]

Bill Burr trashed those chairs for 40 minutes and they still haven’t them...

[@Maxskinen]

Oh dear... The audio in the intro of this video is absolutely horrible.

[@VoyageOne1]

Plot twist: the interviewer did not see the film

[@RageONTv]

Why does the interviewer sound like Seth Meyers ?

[@AhBeeDoi]

Mu God, he's a pilot?

[@italo505]

Definitely painful to watch and couldn't wait for the interview to be over

[@italo505]

Then have the audacity to ask Harrison Ford himself how did he think the interview went? Dude...

[@OroborusFMA]

Ford still sounds like a carpenter who moonlighted as an actor. He doesn't seem to have more than a shallow impression about the science fiction he's talking about.

[@D4RKNlGHT]

One would think that you would be so captivated by Ford that you listen to what he says.. And not ask a question he just answered seconds ago. Seriously, get someone that is actually capable of interviewing someone properly.

[@blahblahblahblahbla2705]

seems drunk but owning the fuck out of everything

[@nrqed]

Being French-Canadian, I cringed when the interviewer mispronounced completely Villeneuve's name...He just butchered it...

[@alanwisdom7777]

maybe the only actor in Hollywood who has never had a facelift 😎

[@buiviet577]

This is the funny man

[@daisyshahrk6031]

IamThinkingBetweenTenToTwo

[@daisyshahrk6031]

[@rickg8015]

Those chairs, looks so uncomfy.. Sorry Bill, they haven’t changed ‘em.

[@daisyshahrk6031]

I Like Ike.
