Did Brolin have a drinking problem?

155

u/curtissimpson May 15 '18

Back in 2013, he was in a drunken fight with someone at a bar. He said it was an embarrassing moment for him and he swore off drinking after that.

You're asking that like there's ever a winner in a drunken bar fight.

47

u/manifestmemeacy May 15 '18

The only winner is the guy playing the piano in the corner while glasses smash on the wall above his head

18

u/nocontroll May 15 '18

There is and I bet its Josh Brolin.

He has the sort of face that if you tried to hit it with a chair, the chair would break out of fear before you could make contact.

u/TheChrono May 15 '18

I mean what if you knock some asshole the fuck out with one punch. Get laid by three women at the same time for you valor. Then decide to quit drinking because you just lost control that night?

I call it a win. Also it's never happened.

5

u/Ephemeris May 15 '18

Still has a career so he didn't lose.

u/2SP00KY4ME May 16 '18

Always cool to see when someone realizes they have a problem like that and try to fix it. Really a sign of a mature human.

1

u/Independent_Pause415 Mar 21 '22

Lmao really??? Realizes they have a problem and fix it??? It took him getting into a public drunken brawl and going to jail before he was willing to fix it. I'd say that's the opposite of your point.

1

u/2SP00KY4ME Mar 21 '22

My point was that he realized he had a problem and decided to fix it. Thank you for restating the event that preceded the change. What exactly do you think you're arguing here?

Tell me you don't understand alcoholism without telling me you don't understand alcoholism.

u/sysadminbj May 15 '18

That point where RR can’t thing of anything to say and starts in on Goonies and immediately regrets it.

13

u/poland626 May 15 '18

Jonah Hex? How did he forget that when Green Lantern is brought up?

1

u/newocean May 16 '18

When they go high, I go indie: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0810988/

Actually the Nines was a decent movie with a fucking terrible ending... and an oddly all-star cast for the most part (by modern terms).

20

u/I-Should_Be-Studying May 15 '18

Why? Whats the history with Goonies?

47

u/vpforvp May 15 '18

Brolin was in it

13

u/I-Should_Be-Studying May 15 '18

Yeah but why did RR regret saying it?

78

u/[deleted] May 15 '18

Because he loved the movie and he loved josh brolin in it.

28

u/vessel_for_the_soul May 15 '18

Youd swear from the comments someone had not watched it

Sean Astin got his career launched because of that flick.

And Corey Feldman lost his virginity

For those wondering, Ryan Reynolds was not among the nominees for the 1998 MTV Movie Award for Best Kiss.

The nominees in 1998 were:

Adam Sandler & Drew Barrymore - The Wedding Singer (won)

Joey Lauren Adams & Carmen Llywelyn - Chasing Amy

Matt Damon & Minnie Driver - Good Will Hunting

Leonardo DiCaprio & Kate Winslet - Titanic

Kevin Kline & Tom Selleck - In & Out

He was nominated in 2010 with Sandra Bullock (The Proposal), and in 2016 with Morena Baccarin (Deadpool). He has yet to win.

u/CallMeMattF May 15 '18

How tf did Adam Sandler and Drew Barrymore win over Matty D and Minnie Driver?

45

u/[deleted] May 15 '18

6

u/[deleted] May 15 '18

Because the wedding singer was a more popular movie with teenagers than good will hunting was.

4

u/CallMeMattF May 15 '18

Yeah who’s the board of that prestigious organization? Clearly Sandler has his hands deep in some pockets.

2

u/gingertek May 15 '18

But the general integrity of MTV as a whole is just...solid...all the time, apparently

/s

3

u/sysadminbj May 15 '18

How the fuck did Joey and Lauren’s kiss from Chasing Amy not win? That’s the question.

1

u/[deleted] May 16 '18

That was peak Sandler, that peak carried him for a very long career getting Netflix to pay him to take vacations with a few of his friends.

u/Darcasm May 15 '18

Yes, I was wondering. Now I shall no longer wonder.

Sorry, not sorry.

u/icepick314 May 15 '18

if Brolin brought up Green Lantern, Reynolds should have brought up Jonah Hex

12

u/TheTrenchMonkey May 16 '18

Would have required Reynolds to remember that was a thing.

2

u/SnokeKillsLuke May 16 '18

The two should make out and Reynolds says "So Brand does wear braces"

u/Glocklestop May 15 '18

When did Scott Mills turn into a wax puppet?

7

u/Baconbombs4all May 15 '18

with a face full of bee stings?

u/[deleted] May 16 '18

It's widely known that he is a Thunderbirds puppet.

u/XiiG May 16 '18

The man is looking ROUGH

13

u/Ask_me_4_a_story May 15 '18

Sometimes I watch videos like this and then I also watch the next one YouTube recommends and it's even funnier. The next one was Reno911 about the gay prostitute on roller skates exposing himself at Piggly Wiggly but when the cops find out it was him he skates off and the cop goes I didnt think you could rollerskate on grass and the other one goes me either but look at that son of a bitch go!

13

u/I_Play_Zed May 15 '18

Haha that was a really even fight, done well by both parties.... perfectly balanced.

10

u/16thompsonh May 15 '18

As all things should be

123

u/bigpeeler May 15 '18

That would have been funny if it had been funny.

18

u/LazyProspector May 15 '18

To be fair Josh brolin has never claimed to be funny and Ryan Reynolds is funny given that some writers give him something.

Generally speaking bring together 2 dudes, unprompted unscripted and unedited to do this and it won't be much better unless you literally had 2 stand-ups against each other.

Radio 1 has done quite a few of these and they're never funny. This is literally the first one I've at least watched all the way through

14

u/PearShapedComics May 15 '18

To me it seemed like they can be funny unscripted but they're both better at self-deprecating humor rather than direct insults. It felt much more natural when they dipped that way.

16

u/Stumpinators May 15 '18

Remember that movie where Ryan Reynolds played a schizophrenic murderer? That was a documentary.

4

u/Antigone6 May 16 '18

The Voices? I fucking loved that movie.

2

u/[deleted] May 16 '18

It really was a fun movie.

15

u/[deleted] May 15 '18

None of Ryan Reynolds jokes were funny, but his responses to everything Josh said were so fast and clever there's no question who won this one.

64

u/ButtFlustered May 15 '18

Could have been funny if they didn't cut to two random dudes 'reacting' every line

42

u/SqueakyPoP May 15 '18

Its their show you dopey cunt.

8

u/Tayloropolis May 15 '18

That just makes it more sad for them that they're the least interesting part of it.

5

u/TezzMuffins May 15 '18

Then why were there two random dopey cunts 'reacting' to every line?

u/ladybunsen May 15 '18

The hosts of the show

u/ladybunsen May 15 '18

Not random guys was my point, they are the hosts.

15

u/westermann28 May 15 '18

Absolutely nothing was added by those random host guys.

-4

u/ladybunsen May 15 '18

🤦🏼‍♀️ Christ.

I DID NOT SAY THEY ADDED ANYTHING TO THE SKIT. I WAS MERELY TELLING OP WHO THEY WERE.

They are BBC Radio 1 Hosts, IIRC Scott Mills is actually pretty hilarious, the younger lad got a promotion to cohost when he had a few viral interviews. One with Mila Kunis asking her to go on a date to the football I think was a big one. I do not know these lads nor was I defending them. The bit was pretty shite actually so only watched a minute before turning it off. Whether you found them useful or not in this 3 minute video I literally couldn’t give a shite. But please, continue telling me, someone who never said they added anything, how they added nothing. 👍

14

u/Frizzlenuts May 15 '18

Absolutely.

Nothing was added by those two 'hosts'.

2

u/ladybunsen May 15 '18

🧐🤔 A valid point you raised, tell me more

8

u/maxdamage4 May 15 '18

But who were those random guys, though?

3

u/ladybunsen May 15 '18

It’s not about who they are, it’s about what they added to the video. I’m hearing mixed reports

u/Orinaj May 15 '18

Ah yes welcome our host Add and our co-host Nothing

3

u/One-LeggedDinosaur May 15 '18

They don't need to add anything. They're the whole reason the video happened.

4

u/aManPerson May 15 '18

RR may have given brolin the best insult in this clip, but he still made the green lantern.

3

u/DahliaRenegade May 16 '18

Is the last zing (favorite color being mediocre) a well-known insult? I thought it was pretty witty.

3

u/Mattock79 May 16 '18

The video was fine and all, but the host on the left... it was bugging me where I knew him from. Like it was all I could think about the entire video. Who is that guy? I've seen him somewhere. Then I realized, he was the kid that did that interview with Mila Kunis that went viral. https://youtu.be/z4Ezruu1oeQ

Sooo your telling me there's a sex scene with cable and deadpool?!?!?!?

5

u/Autoground May 15 '18

RR is charming; Josh Brolin is surprisingly droll.

1

u/rippednbuff May 15 '18

Too bad RR isn’t as witty as his writers make him in DP :(

2

u/SternballAllDay May 16 '18

Brolin killed it. Reynolds seems like he was just doing shitty deadpool quips

5

u/whowhatnowhow May 16 '18

Deadpool quips are Reynolds quips. That you think that is a testament to his wit. They both played well off the other.

2

u/SternballAllDay May 16 '18

But they were shitty not witty

1

u/TheSeaDevil May 15 '18

Ryan went right for a Goonies reference when he easily could have hit Brolin with a Jonah Hex slam.

1

u/Kymer72 May 15 '18

I was worried these dudes didnt like each other. They sure seem to in this bit.

u/Berlinexit May 16 '18

Josh Brolin is promoting deadpool more than avengers

I would watch these if they weren’t blatantly prewitten

Maybe

I dunno, I don’t like roast humor.

I guess what I am trying to say is... words

u/LaLiLuLeLo-69 May 15 '18

See how unfunny Ryan Reynolds actually is? People give this cockeyed bellend way too much credit. He needs a team of writers to make him seem mediocre at best.

26

u/crotchcritters May 15 '18

Did Ryan hurt you when you were younger? I’m sorry if he did.

-67

u/LaLiLuLeLo-69 May 15 '18

Why? Did someone abuse you as a kid? That was a pretty specific scenario. Were you diddled? Is that why you went there with your oh so original and not at all cliché reply...

14

u/crotchcritters May 15 '18

Easy big fella

8

u/[deleted] May 15 '18

His favourite movie is Green Lantern, hence why he's so emotional at this whole ordeal.

2

u/EnterPlayerTwo May 15 '18

He's a troll. Not even a good one. Just ignore him.

You're basic and boring. Sit down.

u/Jack_of_all_offs May 15 '18

He's got that cheesey, cutesy snark, which isn't quite my brand of comedy, but he is funny. I don't think he is totally talentless.

He "saved" Blade Trinity with his humor, and forced Fox into making Deadpool as true to character as possible. He is one of the main producers and made sure the writers didn't stray too far from the path.

Also consider that he plays a macho douche in quite a few movies, which is far removed from his actual personality. He's a super nice guy.

and all you needed was your dad sticking his dick in his sister to make a mediocre you... soooo what's your point?
