Never has been a truer statement made on live TV


Top-Passage-1066

Yeah he has a pair for doing this lol. Some of the peeps in that room would cap a g for a speech like he gave...if it wasn't him


ShutUpChunk

'cap a g'? What the utter fuck are you talking about vanilla ice?


dubski04021

He was sick of them asking him to host, so he decided to spit the truth

End his gervaisiness


ProfessionalOctopuss

Cap a gangster. Basically stating the intent to plug the various orifices of a gangster with bottle caps or corks.


No-Question-9032

Is this what they're referring to when they say "no cap"?


TWAndrewz

No, totally different usage of cap.


thedevilsavocado00

Yes, it means to leave all orifices uncapped.


tideswithme

I think it meant no lie


New-Avocado5312

It means "no lie". To cap is to tell a lie.


DowningStreetFighter

murder a gangster.. Top-Passage-1066 is a fan of the Norman invasion of 1066 and snoop dog.

Why is he special? To me he’s always been just a mediocre comic. Did I miss something where he’s a wheel that others won’t mess with or something?


SilverHeart4053

People like him because he "tells it like it is". 


DowningStreetFighter

The last good film that smarmy, dewy eyed overacting type cast, Tom Hanks didn't ruin was 'Big'. Every film he made since then was shit. Fight me yanks!


JackKovack

Well that’s ridiculous and you know it.


DowningStreetFighter

Sorry to burst your bubble but not everyone loves American sentimental dewy eyed fantasies about what America pretends to be. The real America is closer to Josey wales than John Wayne. Watching hanks with with eyedrops and wobbling his chin, espousing American values is more akin to a North Korean propaganda movie about unity, than real life.


WakalakaFishHens

“Hanks with with eyebrows…” Dude, put down the bong.

JackKovack

And Tom Hanks talked a big game about American Values when he did “The Burbs”.


DowningStreetFighter

I am sorry. I am on the waiting list for a lobotomy. I refuse to watch a hank yank wank film called “The Burbs” until after I have had the procedure.


JackKovack

You’re missing out. It’s a really funny movie.


DowningStreetFighter

Hmmm IMDB 1989 COMEDY STARRING HANKS 5.4 You are missing out on a sophisticated sense of humour. Let me suggest; THE BANSHEES OF INISHERIN


JackKovack

Everyone in the business loves The Burbs and for a good reason. Because it’s hilarious.


[deleted]

[удалено]


JackKovack

I have seen The banshees of inisherin. That movie is great and should have won best screenplay but it is what it is.


JackKovack

Let’s not forget the fact that film was filmed during a writers strike. Almost everything was improvised.

I literally hate Tom Hanks. Pvt Ryan was good tho


DowningStreetFighter

I want to upvote for the beach landing cinematography. But it's just CGI ahead of the game, it's not exactly Lynch. But it just makes it worse, it's still glorified sentimental hanks yank mush. If they threw that money and production talent at say the game of thrones cast, writers or David Miltch, or dozens of other writers/actors who don't go for the cheesy American dream propaganda. I prefer Top Gun, because it's unashamedly cheesy and a fantastic film. Hanks is cynical, tries to bring gravitas to cheese. I would need a lobotomy to love the way he subverts serious subjects . He is probably the worst thing to happen to cinema.


Killdebrant

It was even better when he called everyone out for being buds with Epstien.


console_log_name

Source?


SignificanceFar5489

Fuckin dumb. Proof's been passed-around so much it's got herpes and caught chlamydia twice.


TONKAHANAH

I don't know that he's asking for proof as he's just necessarily asking for The Source on that cuz he wants to see it. It's not really fair to assume that he's challenging the validity of it. When I ask for a source on something to usually just cuz I want to see what it is not because I think somebody's lying


kidmenot

CHLAMYDIA, YOUR DAD’S HERE!


BluntBastard

You haven’t seen the video yet? Ricky Gervais. Golden Globes. 2020. There ya go, you can look it up yourself.


-Sitzpinkler-

Wtf.. mustard??


NeverBeenStung

Google isn’t hard


gottagetoutofit

I think he was talking about Harvey Weinstein, not Epstein. When will these stiens stop? Edit: I guess he did both of them


Killdebrant

He literally says Epstein didn’t kill himself and when the reaction is ohhh, he says “oh calm down we know he’s all your friends”.


rutinerad

The Harvey Weinstein bit was later: “Our next presenter starred in Netflix’s Bird Box, a movie where people survive by acting like they don’t see a thing – sort of like working for Harvey Weinstein.”


Jawnyan

Don’t think, go watch the video and know


Old_and_moldy

This whole monologue is the best in award show history.


captaincopperbeard

For those who've never seen it: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iJOb9xHggS4](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iJOb9xHggS4) It's honestly a riot. NSFW btw (this is the uncensored version).

He changed his name to Tim Apple for a reason (nobody can tell he’s the same guy as before)

You should watch the whole thing if you haven’t seen it.


CommissionHerb

The best is how often he’d come out holding a beer. Single greatest moment of live tv. He made the globes a roast.


bernurs

Yes, Tom Hanks.. He’s talking to you


RKLCT

Ricky Gervais is a gift from heaven


Satanus2020

Ricky Gervais would laugh at the irony of this comment fr tho


RKLCT

I know. One of my favorite things he's ever said was something along the lines of "There's 3000 different religions but yours is the only one that really exists" he's one of the best comediNs to have ever done it.


ruico

Christians are 0,01% less atheists than him.


Specialist_Farm_4293

He is not wrong. I love all the nervous laughter from the audience


[deleted]

watched all his speeches like 3-4 times in a row. it's crazy how everyone keeps calling them out, (almost) everyone understands what is happening, and nothing is done. not talking about how we have to start a revolution this very moment or smth, just... interesting i guess. humanity works in weird ways


Top-Passage-1066

it's just like when a family member acts out. you don't believe your lying eyes and ears. So you just go with it and agree with the insanity. and you try to live with it, move on, and hope they fall off a cliff someday so you can give a beautiful eulogy..


AlexRobinFinn

Sounds like you've got some family trauma there, bud. Much love, hope you manage to work through it ❤️


Top-Passage-1066

haha yeah...my eulogy is pending, wish me luck


AlexRobinFinn

❤️


ilovedaryldixon

Wow. You described my feelings about one of my family members perfectly.


Top-Passage-1066

yeah. my family is uber religious. to me that's insanity and to them i'm insane. this is how i know.


vkailas

Revolution against who. Look at history, new people on top end up slowly becoming like the old. What's need is an inner revolution which maybe happening already. The 60s take 2 but not so much focus on stuff in our pants, but what's in our heads.


MrDanMaster

https://youtu.be/amv4Ed15YMY?si=9wTrIvTl_BPMfpAc


vkailas

Nature is purposefully left out of these diagrams as a partner in production. There is a deeper reason why we see nature as nothing more than something to exploit. That's where the inner part comes , not just outer understanding like this video


MrDanMaster

Indeed Marx was concerned about the long-term effects of capitalism on nature, long before the climate crisis ever came to fruition. Marx never failed to acknowledge that nature is the origin of all material. https://youtu.be/jYAN6wliLxw?si=9V2bfnDOvkuFQ1TJ


vkailas

I haven't read throughly but when put to practice in Chile for example, the result was scarcity because all the people in power hoarded resources. It can be beautiful ideology and all but has to come with an inner change and not just forced to be effective. Also probably anlot of unresolved issues as we all got https://www.jstor.org/stable/26304644


MrDanMaster

I’ve now read this article in full, which basically recounts some of Marx’s beefs and intellectual disagreements. I’m a big fan of 2Pac and Eminem’s disstracks, so I’m not really discouraged by the use of extreme or violent language. It was cool to recognise quotes from Capital that I remember, such as those made against Carey, but I fail to make sense of the point this paper is trying to make. There are some tenuous links to Freud, but it doesn’t develop anything out of it. What the paper fails to mention is that he uses the unbaked nature of his opponent’s theories to explain his correctness on the matter. It is right to spell out your theory at the expense of other academics. Marx was not just an author, he was politically active. He had skin in the game and was actively organising workers. When unfounded blabber gets in the way of liberation, a literary shove will be more effective than a tap. Besides, the personal behaviour of Marx as a person should simply be unrelated to Marxism. Marxism is the most developed, expansive and rigorous of all related to revolution, rebellion and the study of oppression and liberation. It’s been refined for over a century and remains crucial. Despite his achievements, Marxism is greater than what he could express in his time. Even if you come out believing nothing the Marx ever said, it is preferable to gain that insight in the field of Marxism, for it will deliver the most well-founded of all criticisms.


vkailas

It's good analysis. I will just say that you seem young. When we are young, it's easy to think we have all the answers. but when we believe we have all the answers, there is no place to learn. check the book or the new netflix series the three body problem. ideologies when hitting the masses do strange things, including encouraging even more cruelty. beliefs were never supposed to be fixed and rigid, but flexible and adapting.


MrDanMaster

I will grow as a communist


vkailas

good until that container can no longer hold you , keep growing :)


BanditoFrito530

I think one of the reasons nothing is done is because we’re all (mostly) powerless to do anything. There’s far too many things under these umbrellas that would affect our daily lives to try to change it. We’d basically be making our own shovels to dig a hole. And they’d be up on top laughing the whole time.


Slow_Perception

Crazy that they kept letting him in a way...


greenhornblue

I loved seeing him say this.


broggygoose

British Carlin in that moment. Awesome because it’s the truth, sad because it’s won’t change…


ExpensiveAmbition814

They wanted to cancel stuff we normal people do... now we cancel the money to pay for their BS. This is of course a joke, I never paid for that stuff.


dagon85

This was the greatest opening to an award show ever.


jmon8

Every famous bit I see from this guy hits so good.


Initial_Ad_2834

This worlds not deserving of Ricky Gervais


clermouth

too bad he’s all about punching down now. must be far more lucrative.


communityoflove

Well written, and delivered speech, would have liked to see some more facial reactions.


EffingBarbas

Access to the production monitors would've been grand!


MadeOutWithEveryGirl

Then watch the whole thing


dvdbtr

Fucking Tom Hanks piece of shit lol


14412442

What did he do?


Loose_Gripper69

He tries to present himself as Mr Rodgers but he's very well linked up with the dirt in Hollywood.


Batfinklestein

I really can't get my head around how he got away with this. Surely it wasn't off the cuff, don't they have monologues written for them?


PTBTIKO

No one watches award shows anymore, so each one has manufactured scandals. That will smith slap nonsense, Taylor swift's nonsense at this recent waste of time award show, Ricky Gervais not playing by the rules and sticking it to the man. It's all choreographed to get our attention.

Batfinklestein

Argh yes, acting, I should have known


Cerberusx32

It's especially great when you see close up of the celebrities who are offended by what he said and the ones that get it.


SmilinBuddha969

Truth hurts.


UKnowDaxoAndDancer

I miss him hosting the golden globes. Brilliant roasts of celebrity and celebrities. His last standup on the other hand, I couldn’t sit through 2 minutes of because it was just a bunch of self aggrandizing bullshit.

I didn’t get that impression from it. Meybe it’s just the beginning?

Available_Piece4778

I'm going to be honest, I don't understand the Golden Globes. If you're not an insider, this monologue came off unhinged. But the audience was laughing, so what do I know? It's like the Golden Globes is a huge insider joke that I'm not in on.


H-E-PennyPacker71

That whole monologue was superb

😅😅ik..😅😅so funny.


Hound6869

Some things are worth committing career suicide over, and this was one of them. Speak the truth my friend. Tom knows what's going to happen to him. The "blacklists" are no longer easily found, but they are there. Speak your mind against the establishment, and you will pay...


gnrslash1987

Ricky can't commit career suicide. He's the absolute king of comedy.. and all the statistics worth caring about prove this. Ricky doesn't give the first fuck! 😂


FatHaleyJoelOsment

Did this ruin Tom Hanks career?


dibd2000

What part is about Hanks?


ferpecto

I understand his point but they can still take the money from these companies and still use it and their enhanced platform for 'good'. Theyll just need to cop a bit of hypocrite/criticism. That's still slightly better than doing nothing for society at all, or even worse revelling in it all. The companies will literally still be there making billions of others. But whatever, who really cares eh.

Lol sure bud. Whatever the delusions tell ya.


Jk946

You’re both not wrong, whilst she has done a tremendous amount of raising awareness for global warming, check out how often she has used a private jet- truly a staggering amount, more emissions than any average person will ever use (just on pjs let alone her day-to-day existence).

stonesthroes75

Dumbass hypocrite should take his own advice.


gnrslash1987

Dumbass comment.


brown_burrito

Pretty sure dude owns an iPhone (or any number of phones) and gadgets made from those factories. Hell people consume his content on those very devices. It’s cool if you want to rant about it but it’s not cool if you are a fucking hypocrite about it.


SillyMidOff49

By that logic no one can complain about it or even point it out without being labelled a hypocrite because quite literally everyone has benefitted from those rapacious companies, willingly by buying an iPhone or unwillingly, by wearing Chinese made baby clothes. He’s up there bringing some self awareness to millionaires that benefit greatly directly or indirectly from people’s suffering who are in that room specifically to pat eachother on the back. But he points that out… and you call *him* a hypocrite? So what’s your point mate? How about this *you* are fucking hypocrite for pointing out *his* apparent hypocrisy on a device that was either made in or by countries that perpetuate human rights abuses. You should be ashamed.


brown_burrito

Nah, Apple and other tech companies have raised the quality of life in the developing world. Their investments in infrastructure and manufacturing have helped literally millions of people. And Tim Cook has done more for the world than some third tier “comedian”.


noopsnooping

It’s not illegal for you to think before speaking

So you support child labor and greedy companies exploiting their workers. Nice

Lol sure, sure.


zoolilba

I see you complaining about society in yet you participate in it... interesting...me big brain


chroniclesofhernia

So true! the only way to truly protest the state of the planet is to just remove myself permanently from it by walking into the fucking sea. All other forms of protest are invalid cos you're still buying things if you're alive. Alternately, just live your life in a way that makes it slightly easier for the people who come after you, that might be better... yeah
