@@jaybloc6485I absolutely hate reading and I always have. I’ll read a sentence and then have to reread it. A KZbinr I follow wrote a book and I want to read it, but I just can’t bring myself to do it. Thankfully he recorded himself reading it so I’ll listen to it

[@xombie0709]

Hyundai Elantra question got me 😂

[@Itzrochey]

Nah fr 😂

[@ypg2012]

Thankful he said stock😂

He’s real asf for saying stock is good

[@MAttyBUrnouts]

STOCK IS GOOD

[@willdorten6867]

'Peter' he got me with that one. lol

[@parkerklisch4788]

It fits him so good too

[@dykemoder]

That made me laugh more than I think I should’ve lol

[@roninmidori1188]

Peter and Roger are the first two

“are you happy with the man you see in the mirror??” he tried so hard to get him to break😂😂

[@jesusflores9191]

Just a swift "yup" was great lmao

[@user-kg9ki7jh1e]

Everyone else: wholesome questions RANDOM GUY: ARE YOU HAPPY WITH THE MAN YOU SEE IN THE MIRROR

[@TheA1salazar]

Yup

[@RogueMandoGaming]

Dude wanted to give him an exstitential crisis

[@okamitsu1212]

Yep

[@razortheonethelight7303]

Sometimes it's good to be able to know you can be asked that question and know the answer is yes.

[@KidGriMmMusic]

Like wtf was that about 😂

[@dwightcrooks4976]

Man gets every bit of love he’s given a lot.

[@stephenschreiber2640]

He doesn’t think he acts. THAT is the sign of a good actor.

[@Why-_-So-_-Serious]

No it literally means he plays one role well in all his shows and movies lol he just bes himself for the most part and that's bad

[@anguspollerd442]

@@Why-_-So-_-Seriousyeah it’s the rock syndrome i would call it lol. or kevin hart style.

[@stephenschreiber2640]

@@Why-_-So-_-Serious But any decent actor will tell you the “goal” of acting is essentially to “NOT act”. So, that’s all I’m saying dog.

[@pkingoodog11]

I feel like when I stream GTA 5 roleplay I could be a really good actor or voice actor. But in Real life, I'm just a 31 year old that never grew up! stays home and plays on PC, and makes walkthroughs and video guides, I'm on a disability income, so I can stay home and be poor till I'm 65.

[@nickyboy22071989]

To be fair (not saying he's a bad actor) but Michael Rooker just kind of does Michael Rooker.

[@user-sy3vh4eu6g]

[@Alex_W1308]

Man's at 50k now still no third comment?

[@veritas_24]

The fact he gives the hugs tho is so wholesome compared to the way you think he would respond

[@Mellun-P]

“What actor inspired you as a kid?” “None of ‘em”

[@lordnokia4222]

Based

[@CollaateraL]

My favorite for sure lmao

[@Sp00kyB00per]

whoever that was who used his question to ask “can i get a sip?” needs to be solidified as a legend for the rest of eternity.

[@thelightatnight193]

He's a goober irl, but a legend none the less.

[@coveredtarget1694]

That’s me haha

[@roberto2568]

I didnt get it 😮

[@n0isyturtle]

"The pay" is the realest answer

[@daanroelofs119]

yeah... he doesn't act. He's really just like that

He just has a really solid appearance and voice for the job.

[@x916x]

"Where'd you find your hat" "I bought it" 😂 Too funny

[@filipedonatti5803]

The job he did as Merle was incredible

[@anthonybarben5853]

That's all I hear lol

[@CharlesDaChurro]

Not even a job, he just spoke and they'd improvise and roll cameras whenever he started talking nonsense. True method acting

[@djh345]

His role as Merle propelled him to stardom, and rightly so! Without him those first seasons would have had a whole lot less to them. A true top class actor/ genuinely interesting/charismatic human being

[@BigGeorgeCostanza]

"Merle!" Daryl Voice

[@tyronekane1]

Apparently he wasn’t acting…..

[@joevanvlack1]

The "are you happy with the man you see in the mirror" was siad so seriously. And he almost laughed lol

[@Mclovinit8171]

"Stock is good" 😂😂

[@p33Xy]

Bro isnt acting, he is just having fun

[@ryanwalker1376]

"Can I get a sip?" "No!" "aww"😢

[@Izuku-Midoriya7]

"Peter" Was so fast lmfaoo

[@gkrees9509]

Well yeah pretty sure Peter Rabbit just popped in his head … that’s like asking “what should I name this bunny?…” _“BUGS”_ or “what should I name this duck?” _”DONALD”_ and even “what should I name this mouse?” _” MICKEY”_

[@Kuratian]

@@gkrees9509 I thought it was because of peter quill 😭

[@caleb_gilmer989]

The hesitation on the guy asking for a sip aas hilarious to me

[@LittleOrdah]

“ how many times did you watch this video?” Me: yes

[@JEFF23_]

How all QA should be.

[@p3ytxnnnn]

he doesn't act. he plays himself for each role basically

[@youtubeaccountlol4942]

"stock is good" 😂😂😂

[@kurtdewittphoto]

"Can I get a sip?" guy ran out of time to think of a good question.

[@fordsmolko872]

"Do you have a book recommendation?" "NOPE!"

[@Ovenman23]

I saw him in an elevator once and asked him if he could whistle, he can.

[@veizour]

I love that he did this. Giving a moment to the fans. Very nice

[@lokidagr]

aw i love how hes tryna do a speed round but still goes back and adds a bit to some of them

[@collinanderson2720]

I’ve worked with Micheal rooker. Easily the best actor out there right now. Great guy. Super professional. Genuinely nice

[@Morbid_Stoner]

“I still don’t think I act” what a fucking legend

[@emilypode8198]

Michael gives the best hugs, can confirm from personal experience ❤

[@leroyjenkins4115]

"Can I have a hug?" "Yep." 😂 Rooker is so awesome!

[@WebDevWithABlackBelt]

"Can I get a sip?" "No" Guy was devastated lol

[@bufordhighwater9872]

Michael Rooker is such a great actor. From Henry, to McMaster, to Svenning, to Earl.

[@themanoverheaven9711]

Can I have a hug is way to relatable I would want one from Marry Poppins as well.

[@endritDevYellowHatGames]

This was fun

[@stylesings938]

I was genuinely hugged by Michael Rooker at a comiccon once,best day of my life

[@drunken_patriot]

"Nope" this man spitting facts 🤣

[@paddyfootguy4558]

“Peter” luv this dude

[@whatwhatyep]

This is the best Q&A I've ever seen.

[@hannahdoesvo7182]

I need more Lightning round qnas to be done like this

[@worm82075]

Michael Rooker is the king of the redemption arc. Had a great one in The walking dead and even better one in gaurdians.

[@Tenems941]

The embodiment of "I know what I'm about"

[@JustaBrat333]

Most down to earth actor out there, he's great

[@troydonovan7822]

[@SheepsMcgill]

"PETER"

[@Gechoszw]

“PeTeR!” 💀

[@eyelockianmage531]

“I still don’t think I act” was such a golden response. I hope that filled the heart of the dude. He clearly seemed genuinely interested in his question

[@joesikorski4080]

What an absolute legend. I wish they all were like this

[@oryann0242]

That guy just trying to get a clear answer about his car 😂 been bothering him for months I bet 😅

[@s-s00]

“are you happy with the man you see in the mirror” is WILD

[@patrickbruneau6700]

I love this format for Q&A. It’s a win win

[@raylop80731]

The guy aggressively saying "how do you feel about the man in the mirror is the best"

[@littleripper312]

The audience questions were awesome good job!

[@kirbygathercoal9611]

"I still don't think I act" was beautiful

[@brianbru]

Never not enjoyed his performance in anything he's ever been in that I've ended up watching. One of the greats.

[@tortallinychad6455]

“i still don’t think i act” he IS the character

[@quityourwaaaaaa]

he has the most infectious laugh i've ever heard was such a nice guy when we took pics with him. totally cool dude.

[@Josejosh77]

I love this, this is how interviews should go!!!!!!❤❤❤

[@jibs722]

“I still don’t think I act” too real

[@MarcYanruw]

Can I get a sip?" Is the best question

[@Leoppassion]

“Peter” is definitely my favorite part.

[@brasjeanvil4629]

Pure gold. Thanks.

[@alkaline3mc]

Love that this is rapid fire, and love that the answers are so relatable and human

[@amsvideomafia5333]

The guy asking if should modify his car is a legend lol

[@spencerpower5782]

I met him last month at phoenix fan fusion, such an amazing dude, had him sign my star lord mask and jacket.

[@cameronmclauchlan6369]

This man is so decisive, no curveball question can catch him off guard

[@rhia_code]

Told her to name the bunny Peter, like Quill 😂

[@BoschDaWiseman]

"I still dont think i act. I just live and they film me"

[@Sundew_3]

I don’t know if he did this on purpose but I love that he named the rabbit Peter as if referencing Peter quill 😂
