Jimmy Kimmel vs. Matt Damon

[CosmicBills]

Pretty funny bit -- don't know when this aired (guessing this week?). But if you watch Kimmel Live, it's a reoccuring bit that Kimmel always "runs out of time for Damon" at the end of every show.

 

Finally, Damon gets on the air....

I was thinking this was just a staged bit, but if the wrath at the end isn't real, Damon is a better actor than I give hime credit for. Red faced with veins in the neck.

Yeah, I was thinking it was his best acting job since Good Will Hunting. I mean, it's not like he didn't know how much time was left in the show.

definitely staged - and funny too.

That was from Kimmel's prime time special about a month ago. It was staged, and pretty damn funny.

Actually, if Kimmel is like most talk shows, it's possible he didn't. I know that Leno, Fergy & Letterman are recorded in the afternoon & appear to not be filmed continuously.

(i.e. They don't make the audience sit there ideally to wait for a 5 minute commercial break. Also, it's sometimes apparent that there has been editing.) As such, it is quite possible that he was oblivious to the time left.

 

Personally, I assume that he was aware & in on it.

As for the redness & bulging veins, venomously scream ant someone/something for a few minutes & I think you can turn yourself red.

funny, but staged.

Oh, it's totally staged, never thought otherwise...

 

What I thought was most impressive was Kimmel's ability to keep a straight face while Damon was going nuts
