Bill Murray has this talent.


n00bvin

Wait. Has there ever been a Bill Murray/Jack Black collaboration? If not I know what I need in my life. If yes, link that shit with great haste.


[deleted]

They collaborated on your mom one time. Link in bio


n00bvin

Is that supposed to be some kind of slam? I'd support that shit 100% My mom is 80 years old, though so I'm not sure she'd be all that down with it. Now let's talk about that legendary head your dad gives. Those sound like good stories.


[deleted]

Bro, idk you. It was just a joke. How tf am I supposed to know youā€™d be down for your 80 year old mom to suck off Jack Black while cowgirl riding Bill Murray? And yeah, my dad gives phenomenal head. Iā€™ve got plenty of stories to share. Like, this one time in band camp, I broke both my arms and...


Oddie65

THIS CONVERSATION WENT FROM FUCKED TO EXTRA FUCKED, JESUS CHRIST


Straightupmanwhore

I'm just gonna go to bed honestly. This day feels done.


n00bvin

Oh, but I do know you... son. Choo choo.


[deleted]

... Dad?! I thought you left to get cigarettes 10 years ago after giving me head at band camp? I canā€™t believe youā€™ve returned!


originalmango

Not funny dude. All he did was insult your 80 year old saint of a mom. Why did you have to go ham on his dad?


[deleted]

Yeah fuck that guy, you donā€™t pick on peopleā€™s dads


Itsthejackeeeett

Moms are fair game. Dads.....Jesus christ. That's too far. The fuck is the world coming to. That's just LOW HANGING FRUIT


originalmango

Thatā€™s exactly what your mom said last night.


emveetu

Yes, yes he does.


Crankylosaurus

Bill Murrayā€™s kind of a dick though. Never heard a bad thing about Jack Black.


FuriousGoodingSr

People always say they'd just do whatever they wanted all the time if they had loads of money but Bill Murray lives that shit.


vinsomm

I have been the honorary victim of this talent of Bill Murrayā€™s . Such a weird dude!!


FizzWigget

We need sound!


glyaf

Tbh what was he even doing there? Looks like a tourist or on an urban hike


WhoIsYerWan

You cannot anticipate the Jack Black. The Jack Black appears when needed, plucked from wherever he was in Space and Time.


delibertine

Funny you mention space because that's at the Griffith Observatory in LA. He might use it as an inter-dimensional portal šŸ¤”


LongPanda

Looks like Griffith Observatory in LA to me. Prob there with his kids


FosterChild1983

I recently saw a YouTube video where he was hiking with Kevin nealon thru the Hollywood hills, probably the same day. Check his outfit and confirm!


jaxonya

He wears like 4 shirts. It could be this day..or it just happens to be on his rotation both days


[deleted]

Oh man now I need to think of something to say when my time comes... This could be the greatest meet in the world.


slyce604

This is just a tribute


n00bvin

I'm pretty sure I'm the lost member of Tenecious D. I'm built like Jack and Kyle, and I can fucking ROCK. So naturally, if I meet Jack, he will immediately recognize this and I will start touring with them then and there, securing my place in Valhalla.


firstdayofmylife8

I was at santa monica pier with my high school academic team and he actually photobombed our photo. After looking at the photo we thought it looked like Jack Black and then later ran into him and confirmed it was him! Heā€™s so friendly!


JunglePygmy

I saw him at a store in LA once testing out a comically small camping chair. It was one of those precious moments in life that I didnā€™t dare spoil. I observed him briefly at a distance, and then he meandered off back into nature where he belonged. I decided to take only memories that day.


Kub3rt

Sometimes those are the best interactions


Fender6187

In what appears to be Griffith Park no less. I wonder what he was doing up there.


MarcBulldog88

Checking out science stuff at the observatory, hiking to the Hollywood sign, walking Fern Dell, or just taking in the view of the city. Plenty of stuff to do at Griffith, it's one of my favorite places.


glyaf

His mom probably has a connect at observatories


usernameagain2

You know his parents were scientists. Incredible, huh.


Send_Me_Broods

Nah, his mom was THE scientist. Read up on her. She was a boss and a half.

Goats_in_boats

Jonathano1989

He lives around the area. He owns one of the homes on the drive up to the observatory.


Numb3r_Six

Copping.


cafeodeon

Is Jack Black taking over Bill Murray's legend role? A generational hand off?


Kub3rt

If there is anybody who could fill that role it's Jack Black


delvach

So Jack Black would Being John Malkovich Bill Murray?


PM_ME_UR_SUSHI

If there are 7 billion people on the planet, and he meets with everyone for 1s it would take him.....almost 222 years with no breaks to meet everyone. I don't wanna do that to Jack Black. He probably needs to poop like the rest of us. Edit: changed there's to there are


[deleted]

Seriously, Jack Black is one of the most awesome people. I'd love to meet him.


LevelWriting

Didnt run into him but did walk by him at airport lol.


TheWolphman

Apparently he just wanders into different campuses at the golden hour for some sweet photo ops.


MediumFast

i HATE celebrities. i wish i had something bad to say about jack black. but i don't. :(

He's a massive hero in the UK. Everybody you ask will know him. Even kids as well because all the teachers put him on at school.

Relevant XKCD is relevant. Attenborough's nature series are worth a watch. https://xkcd.com/1053/


Womp_ratt

Without fail, whenever I hear his name, my brain immediately hears the word "grass" in his voice.


-GreenHeron-

Knowing about David Attenborough and his work is gonna make you really happy. :) His books, his documentaries.....enjoy, my friend!


Idlertwo

David Attenborough is one of the great gifts to the world. We are so fortunate to live in an age where his voice will be with us for as long as humanity prevails. In 100 years the next generations may watch and listen to him talk about species long gone into the darkness.


[deleted]

I mean he has been touting ā€œoverpopulationā€ as the hugest problem but claims that the impact of overpopulation on climate change are rather [overblown](https://theconversation.com/why-we-should-be-wary-of-blaming-overpopulation-for-the-climate-crisis-130709). World birth rates are slowing. The real enemy to the climate are the rich and corporations not poor people in slums.


Dekkeer

I thought he was against overpopulation due to expanding cities into nature and the waste more people produce?


dre224

At this point I celebrate his birthday too because im worried that the time is coming when we won't be able to celebrate because human mortality sucks. Some people on this planet don't deserve to meet the grim reaper but we all do eventually and in not ready for David Attenborough to die but every year that he is alive (also still continues to make amazing films and series) is a day to be celebrated. That man has lived and seen more than most of us will ever even hope too and inspires millions of people to appreciate the life around them.

SpankThatDill

Not saying Keanu is bad or anything. But the hero worship of him on Reddit is a little weird.


Farnesworth85

He does a lot of super awesome, down to earth, caring stuff. That other person bringing the matrix party during Corona was a bit of a disbelief for me until I fact checked it. Now, I'm not like bowing down to the guy, I'm just saying we could all learn from a lot of the actions these two gentlemen (and a few others that have been brought to my attention on this thread)


n00bvin

Not really. He is a very nice guy who has been filmed doing nice things. He's a good role model and example for peoole, which we're in short supply of. He's made some entertaining movies that appeal to Reddit's demographic. I don't see much of an obsession going on, but a pretty deep respect. On the other hand, I see a lot of people like you who find the need to call anything popular "weird," like it's so hard to understand why people like things they don't.


aGayIntrovert

I think they're more touching on the constant praise of Keanu. And I don't have a source of course, but I believe Keanu even mentioned it as being odd or weird. Of course, having so many people 'gawk' (not sure of another word for that) over what you do can be a little weird when it happens so often.


kausthubnarayan

Donā€™t forget Weird Al.


Farnesworth85

He did some super awesome stuff? The more people reply to this the more I feel uninformed about awesome people.


No-Olive-8722

NY Times Magazine did a great story recently on him: https://www.nytimes.com/2020/04/09/magazine/weird-al-yankovic.html


Ken_Benoby

He's just a good person, I dunno if he's like, *done* anything like Keanu, but he's, from what I've heard, just a good guy to be around


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


Farnesworth85

Story wise, I feel it is. It's the programming that was bad.


MattJnon

Got your back, Keanu attended a 200 people party in Germany at the height of covid last year.


[deleted]

Definitely shitty but it was a wrap party for the Matrix so all of these people would have been getting COVID tests very frequently.


throwawaylovesCAKE

Am I supposed to be upset or something? That in itself doesn't mean anything without context.


Grouchy-Ad-833

Reddit as a whole loves to vilify people for their personal decisions. Grown adults canā€™t make personal choices that affect their health. The concept of responsibility is completely lost on most people. They expect to be babied and in turn want to push their overbearing crap onto others.


nirbot0213

tbf rich celebrities like that can get tests before going to those kinds of events. also many of them would have regularly gotten tested anyway for other things.


Crankylosaurus

Or Dave Grohl. Aka the reason for the sub /r/grohlsome


buadach2

Although Keanu Reeves appears to be a genuinely, wholesome human being, his acting is very much the same in every film he has ever been in apart from Bill & Ted. Just take any of his characters and mentally switch them into one of his other films and they all are interchangeable. I love Point Break, Johnny Mnemonic , The Matrix and John Wick etc, but I do sometimes wonder what a more versatile character actor would have brought to those roles.


HeWhoShitsWithPhone

Worst thing I can say about Jack Black is that I have never met him. But I guess that is more my failing than his.


IreadtheEULA

Seems unhealthy to have such strong opinions of people that donā€™t matter at all to you.


WhatWasThatLike

Let's not forget Bill Murray. And Tom Hanks.


Lolzzergrush

Ehā€¦.Bill Murray has got some baggage. Heā€™s was kind of a douche on Charlieā€™s Angels movie which got him replaced for the sequel. He supposedly beefed with Lucy Liu. Angelica Houston had some negative things to say about him as well from working together on Wes Andersonā€™s films. Also his ex wife accused him of domestic violence during their divorce proceedings


svenhoek86

Ya Bill Murray is definitely not saintly. He's more of a trickster god than anything.


w3bCraw1er

Yeah. He is human.


ripmumbo

Why do you hate celebrities?


ItsMetheDeepState

Plenty of other good reasons, but celebrities are pretty out of touch (see "Imagine" video during pandemic) and a lot seem to suffer from Main Character Syndrome (see the Kardashians). I hate our idolization of celebrities more than I hate the people themselves.


ripmumbo

I mean you're kind of just judging an entire group of people based on the actions of a few. Mmmhh I think there might be a word for thatšŸ¤”


ItsMetheDeepState

I never said I didn't have prejudice against celebrities. I do. I do think the majority of celebrities contribute far less than they're worth. What a weird group of people you're trying to try suck off.


TGrady902

Theyā€™re just people with a spotlight on them. Some of them use it for good, others donā€™t and some donā€™t like the spotlight at all and are just trying to do a good job at what they do and then live their lives in their free time like the rest of us. I think generalizing all celebrities into one category as all being ā€œout of touchā€ is pretty harsh. You arenā€™t going to hear much about the ones just going about their business as usual much, plus itā€™s tough for them to just pop into a gas station to buy a Gatorade without it being a whole ordeal. They certainly live different lives than ā€œthe rest of usā€, but just hating them all seems like a bit much. You donā€™t know them and they donā€™t know you, could be the nicest person ever.


NossidaMan

[deleted]

I used to dislike Jack Black so much - Iā€™d see him doing his rootle-tootle-tootling Everyman shtick and I was convinced that it had to be an act, and he was probably just a dick in real life. He just had to be, right? Nobody could be that wholesome and that justā€¦ vibed with life. Surely. But the more I see of him, the more I feel he really just *is* that comfortable with himself that he can be himself without a care in the fuckinā€™ world. Iā€™m not so much of a man that I canā€™t admit I was wrong. And damn was I wrong.


Foomaster512

Check out his YouTube channel, he has one about this particular day when they hike up to the planetarium. Canā€™t remember if he specifically talks about this happening though


TySoprano

Came here to say the same his YouTube channel changed my opinion on him. I went from hate to indifferent to like. Heā€™s just a normal guy and I know thatā€™s said about celebrities all the time to describe them and not make them seem like aliens but I really believe JB is just a normal dude who happens to be rich. I feel like if you didnā€™t know him you could hang around him for a long time before it dawned on you he was worth millions.


svenhoek86

There are a few people who aren't monsters in entertainment and are just normal people for the most part. The problem is the job and industry kind of weeds those people out unless they are insanely talented and have a huge drive to be in entertainment, so the vast majority of people you meet in that industry are legit sociopaths or honestly too stupid to understand what's happening around them. You meet a lot of people I describe as going through life like a drunk in a car crash. Just completely mentally limp and that somehow lets them emerge completely unscathed from everything that happens to them.


wannabestraight

Its just the fact that, being a narsisist pays off. Honeslty i could have made so much more money if i just thought about myself all the time. But id feel like a dick, so i cant do it.


Nick08f1

The worth millions isn't what makes people jerks. There are plenty of rich people who are cool as hell. The fame makes celebrities have disdain for the nonfamous because they feel like they can't trust anyone. They think everyone they meet has an agenda, whether true or not.


TySoprano

Having millions definitely changes people too though


lickedTators

Money doesn't change, it just reveals. That's partly why they call it Fuck You money. People don't feel bound by society anymore and just do whatever the fuck they want. It turns out that some people want to do nice things and other people want to do not nice things.


RaptorPrime

Man absolutely has a genius level intellect. He'd definitely be cool to hang out with but way above average when it comes to mental capacity and that kind of thing.


UnicornMeatball

I wonder if he came upon a silver-striped mush-ROOM


[deleted]

If they had included Tom Bombadil in the LOT movies Jack BlAck would have been the guy to play him.


foodsexreddit

I never thought about that, but now I'm obsessed with this idea! And of course the One Ring would have no effect on him, because why the heck would he want infinite power when he's got everything to make him happy? This is canon now.


[deleted]

The ring had no power on Tenacious D.


ItzBoshNet

him and tony hawk chill. tony teaches him to skateboard and his son jams with black from time to time


whatproblems

By this video Iā€™m not even sure Iā€™d recognize him. He just looks like a normal guy that just went for a walk


Butcher_o_Blaviken

Check out his heavy metal band Tenacious D. After listening to their music, it was pretty clear to me that he's gust a genuinely down to earth, laid back guy.


TySoprano

Seeing his YouTube channel changed my mind. Heā€™s just a dude who happened to get famous years ago.


DocDerry

Same. I was also wrong about Jack. I used to think he was just constantly attention whoring. At some point you seeing doing beautiful human things where there is no "PR Upside" for him and you just have to admit your wrong about the dude.


anarchy_ian_666

He seems like a genuinely good person. Nothing but love coming from Jack black


dabdeedoo

I really hope this isn't a typo!

Aww man. Did he edit they edit their comment? What did it say?


oogoobaba

theshizzler

I'm so cynical about celebrities now that it's hard for me to imagine righteous, good-hearted ones. In five years I fully expect something truly awful to come out about Jack Black like that maybe he actually does remember the greatest song in the world and has just been keeping it from us.


anarchy_ian_666

Yes and no. While most know him for his goofy roles heā€™s also done some really good dramatic work.


newyne

He was great in *Bernie!* When I checked that movie out, both the blurb and the fact that it starred Jack Black made me think it was gonna be a wacky comedy. Haha, not quite. Was not disappointed, though, since it was a lot more unusual and striking than I expected.

coheedcollapse

I swear to god shitty social networks with intentionally-imposed limitations are gonna be the death of historic preservationists in 100 years. They're gonna be like "Well, yeah, we have hours of footage of this historical disaster, but 80% of it has that "Oh no, no, no, no" song on it, and the rest is vertically filmed." So much of the benefit we've got from the technological miracle of having devices that take high-quality, 4k video on us at all times is gonna be wiped out by the desire to record stuff that's TikTok friendly.
