What are your thoughts on Robert Paterson?

What an entrance! Between “Batman”, “Beetlejuice” and “Mr. Mom”, Michael Keaton was a pretty big part of my childhood (“Back to the Future”, “Ghostbusters” and TMNT filled the rest of it). Loved him for years now. Huge fan of him for decades.

As an Aussie, it's truly great seeing these interviews for the first time. Thanks for uploading them all. :)

[@CameronInEgyptsLand]

Great chat with Keaton, felt like just a normal conversation between two people. Thanks!

[@patrickmorgan4006]

I thought Johnny was a little off his game early on. He missed a couple of good things from Keaton while he was more interested in talking than listening. The "My brother owes me $10" line would have been a great to work from, but he wasn't paying attention or didn't hear it. But it was, as you say, like a normal conversation rather than an interview after they got going.

[@user2144]

Michael Keaton always _turns up_ to an interview. Never just goes through the motions. Always full of energy, personable and a pleasant disposition.

[@lucy0537]

Always loved Johnny Carson. Also always liked Michael Keaton alot, always thought he was handsome n seems down to earth!!

one of Michael Keaton’s best roles was in Pacific Heights but all time best was Beetlejuice.

[@thehauntedmansionfan]

Absolutely love the movie Johnny Dangerously.

[@drivesideways6550]

I love Michael Keaton, Johnny Dangerously was such a funny spoof. My brother and I would quote lines from it all the time. "The Lower East Side......This Really SUCKS." Just wholesome comedy. And he is great here on Johnny!

[@paintbynumbermonalisa4187]

I loooove Michael Keaton!

[@gracieg7601]

I think michael is the best Batman too. I’m bummed they didn’t show the clip. I love michael Keaton.

[@janetremsing6988]

😂 😢Sadly, Johnny missed the golden oppertunity to reply, "It SUCKED", to the question regarding selling vacuums. 😂🤣

[@coryd2668]

That guy is handsome to this day at 70!

[@summerdennis1244]

2 years later and at twice my age, I still think he's an absolutely stunning man🤩

[@margaretdasilva5493]

Michael Keaton is worth 40 million now. I guess a lot of other peple liked him too.

[@thenolartist]

Johnny Carson one of a kind, if he liked you, he'd give a hard time, if he didn't, same - only not as long. Hard is what made Johnny, he was hardest on himself. Genius at seeing things through flawlessly. Nonetheless, successfully, which is difficult for anyone. Very funny, likable man. Fortunately for Johnny, he was at the right place at the right time and if you were fortunate enough to be watching Johnny Carson then, you at right place, at right time as well! Miss him. Countless, untold, yet quite imaginable what it must have been like to be one of Johnny Carson's many friends & we all miss him! Personable & memorable. H e e e r r e ' s to Johnny🏆!

[@nancykargl4708]

[@dalehall2067]

[@norbertbriar9807]

Michael Keaton was referring to Canada Lee, who had been boxer before becoming an actor. He starred in MacBeth and Native Son in stages productions by Orson Welles.

[@MarjorieEarlDean]

That entrance got him Beetlejuice.

[@MrTech226]

For those who seeing and reacting this episode. Interesting Fact is that Michael Keaton using Keaton as a stage name. He is born Michael Douglas. That is his given name. Due to another Michael Douglas using Douglas for his work. So, Michael adopted Keaton for his work.

[@patrickmorgan4006]

And don't forget that there was also talk show host Mike Douglas, so he couldn't use that either.

[@coryd2668]

And I love Keaton! Michael Keaton works well! Wonder if he took it from Buster! Being comedic and all!

John William Carson (Corning, Iowa; 23 de octubre de 1925-West Hollywood, California; 23 de enero de 2005) fue un presentador, comediante, escritor y productor de televisión estadounidense. Es conocido sobre todo como el presentador de The Tonight Show, protagonizado por Johnny Carson (1962-1992). Carson recibió seis Premios Emmy, el Premio del Gobernador de la Academia de Televisión de 1980 y un Premio Peabody en 1985. Fue incluido en el Salón de la Fama de la Academia de Televisión en 1987. Fue galardonado con la Medalla Presidencial de la Libertad en 1992 y recibió un Kennedy Center Honor en 1993.[1]​

[@rafaelmoura2103]

keaton was reminding me of someone and i couldnt put my finger on who it was until it hit me, he kinda looks like ray lyota here

[@47imagine]

I understand that Michael Keaton turned down the role of Peter Venkman in Ghostbusters. That's interesting. He's the only other guy besides Bill Murray who I think could really pull it off.

[@yournamehere6002]

He never did stand-up on Carson? Wow! That's how I first discovered him.

[@ExtremeBeatlesArchive]

No, but he did hand-stand up.

[@markant9534]

The film received mixed reviews and holds a 44% approval rating on review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes based on 16 reviews. According to Mary G. Hurd, the film "is loaded with sight gags, one liners, numerous sexual jokes, and puns". But many critics found it to be a comedy which relies on sophomoric humor. According to Gwendolyn Audrey Foster, the film is both a gangster comedy and an homage to 1930s gangster films, but is perhaps too clever for a mainstream audience. According to Leigh Hallisey, the film is a parody of "old-school" gangster films and reveals Heckerling's awareness of their conventions and stereotypes. Foster finds the comedies of Amy Heckerling to rely on "fast-paced, witty repartee and droll humor", and draws comparisons to those of Frank Tashlin and Jerry Lewis.

[@k9feces]

I would watch it on HBO when I was 8, I loved it.

[@TheDevilmayfart]

Ok

[@patrickmorgan4006]

As famous as Jerry Lewis was, Michael Keaton's career is far better. I will take "Night Shift" over any Lewis film, just for starters.
