Here's the very funny Bill Hader,
ladies and gentlemen. [Applause] You know, um, it seems like every movie I saw in the last several months,
you were in it. - [Bill laughs]
- And I... - And good for you, that's just great.
- Oh, thanks, buddy, thanks. And, uh, I was wondering about the one, - the, uh, the Tropic Thunder...
- Yeah, Tropic Thunder, yeah. ..With Tom Cruise,
you're working with Tom Cruise. What was that experience like? Uh, it was amazing.
Like, we got to dance together. Uh...
[He laughs] It was amazing. We had, like, uh... You know, when you do a movie,
you do table reads, you know, where, - like, all the actors get together...
- Oh, at the beginning of the production. ..At the beginning, before anything, you get together
and you read through the script. And, um, so it's, like,
all these heavyweights, like, you know, Ben Stiller,
Jack Black, Robert Downey Jr, everybody, and at the end is,
like, me. Like, you know, "Hey!" - [Laughter]
- "Just happy to be here, guys!" [Laughing] You know? And some other supporting guys,
and then Tom Cruise walks in. [Dave] Oh, my God. And even those guys are, like, "Whoa,"
and he's super stoked to be there, you know, just, like,
"Yeah! Oh! Boom!" [Laughter] - You know, like...
- [Applause] - He's, like...
- [Dave] Wow. - [Dave chuckles]
- He's...just immediately excited... - Um...
- [Dave laughs] ..When he walks into a room.
And, uh... And, uh, so, he comes over and he sits next to me, and I think he'd been briefed
on some of the supporting guys, but he was, like, trying to place me? [He chuckles] You know? So he sat down next to me,
he's like, "I, uh..." [Laughter] - "I love your work."
- [Laughter] And I went, "Oh, thanks,
I love your work too... "Tom Cruise."
[He laughs] - You know, like, "Thanks!"
- [Applause, he laughs] And, uh... And, uh, I go, "Yeah, I'm friends
with Judd Apatow and Seth Rogen "and they went to your house,"
and he went, "Yes. Yes! Yes! - "I, uh, they did come to my house."
- [Dave laughs] And I said,
"Seth Rogen was, like, you know, [Seth Rogen voice]
" 'It was amazing, he has, like, you know, " 'a bike track in his backyard,
it's phenomenal.' " And I did a Seth Rogen impression
and it was like I did a magic trick. Tom Cruise was, like, "Ah-ha!" [Laughter] [Dave] Wow. - And he points to me...
- [Applause] And he pointed at me and he goes, "You do impressions
and you're on Saturday Night Live." And I went, "Eh!"
It was like he won a game show. He was, like, "Yeah, Tom, yeah!" [Laughter] [Bill chuckles] And, uh, that kind of enthusiasm
from that kind of a star, obviously a little intimidating,
a little overwhelming? It is a little overwhelming, yeah!
It was pretty amazing. But you were able to work out
and everything was fine. - Yeah, everything was great.
- And when it was over, it was all good? Yeah, it was great.
At the premiere, he gave... [He laughs] At the premiere,
he came up to me and he goes, "Can you believe we were IN that movie?" I was, like,
"I can believe YOU were in it!" [Laughter] "You're Tom Cruise!" [He laughs]
I was, like, "Yeah!" [Applause]
That transition between faces is almost seamless. Fuck, there are gonna be so many hoax sex tapes and political gaffes in the future, aren't there?
If this technology is used for nothing more than improving videos of people doing impressions Iβd die happy.
When the Rogen hits...
So subtle. Incredible and unsettling.
This fucked my brain up a little. I'm glad the Seth Rogan face was in there because without it I think my unconscious brain would have just come away from this thinking Bill Hader does a creepily good Tom Cruise impression.
This is both absolutely amazing and utterly terrifying at the same time. The transitions are so smooth and subtle. It is very creepy / cool. Afraid to see what nefarious ends this software will lead to...
Well thatβs just creepy.
You're under arrest for future crime
We're fucked.
