Including this year, the big sick, which is one of my favorite movies of the year. [ cheers and applause ] thank you. Jimmy not only did it have heart, but it was funny. It was so funny and so well done. Congrats on that. I appreciate that. The Golden Globes people do not agree with you at all. [ light laughter ] jimmy they do not agree. The Golden Globes are weird. Heres the thing, Golden Globes are weird, especially in the comedy category. I dont know if they understand comedy that much, because trainwreck lost to the martian. Jimmy there you go. Yeah, yeah, that makes sense. And bridesmaids lost to a a hilarious movie called my weekend with marilyn. [ laughter ] i think all the movies jimmy why is the comedy categories in with the dramas, i dont well the dramas always want to be comedies, because i think they think its an easier category, so jimmy then they throw musicals in there as well, right . Yeah, so right at the last second, a musical slips in. And then theyre like, dunkirk says theyre a a comedy now. [ laughter ] jimmy it gets them the award, yeah. I want to talk about either way, its a great film. Obviously, you know it is. Its just fantastic. Thank you. Jimmy kumail, unbelievable. Yeah, hes the best. Jimmy aw, crush. And ray romano, everybody was great in it. I loved the whole film. Lets talk about you in the disaster artist. This is you in front of the camera. Which is i always love seeing you. Well talk about the standup special. I love seeing you out there. What made you do it . Was it james franco . Okay, so, james franco calls me and he says, judd, do you want to do this part . Its this total idiot, mean producer. And hes the one who tells my character that hes never going to make it. And im like, that sounds like fun. And i go to set [ light laughter ] and then he has me sitting with like a 19yearold girl. Its like a Harvey Weinstein situation. [ audience ohs ] [ light laughter ] you know, im playing like a a terrible person. And then i see james franco promoting the movie, hes like, yeah, judd was so good in the movie playing himself. [ audience ohs ] jimmy what . I was like, what . I thought i was an ass[ bleep ] producer, what happened . [ light laughter ] jimmy you made me do that. No, yes jimmy you directed me. He was the director. You cant at the end of it go judd as himself. What is that . [ laughter ] thats like the worst thing you could do to somebody. But the movie is unbelievable. Its very, very good. Jimmy oh, it is great. Now, youre on netflix. Youre doing standup. You stopped doing standup for 20 years. I did. I took a little break. Jimmy cause i remember you were back in the day a a little break . 20 years . Yeah. Jimmy why did you stop . When i started i dont know who the guys were when you started. But i was friends with jim carrey, and so that was weird to watch jim carrey and sandler all the time, because you felt like they were going to be superstars. So, it felt weird to think i was as good as them. You know, its like if you were trying to start a band and your friend was starting a band called radiohead. You know . [ light laughter ] jimmy yeah, exactly like yeah. But i did bring a clip to show you how bad i was in the 80s when i was a comedian. Ive noticed i still have a lot of the new york accent. Jimmy heres a young judd apatow doing standup. Check this out. Not proud. I dont know what to do with these people. I have a stepfather who i call by his first name, because thats what you do. Its kind of cold though, you know . Its like, okay, thats my sister, thats my brother, thats my mom. And this is derek. [ light laughter ] and your stepfather cannot punish you. He cant. Its like, hes in on the conversation, yet has no power. You know . Its like living with dan quayle. [ light laughter ] [ applause ] jimmy topical i was on it. Jimmy political. Yes. Jimmy you got the sleeves rolled up on the sweatshirt. You got the whole look going. And the new york accent. And that went away. Im always surprised when peoples accent doesnt go away. Jimmy yeah. Like schwarzenegger, why does he still talk like that . [ laughter ] jimmy oh, your kids, how would they feel about the special . I said to my daughters, do you want to see it . And if theres any jokes you want me to cut out. If they offend you, ill cut them out. And they both said, yeah, we dont need to see it. [ laughter ] jimmy they just dont care. Just a full lack of interest in the special. Its a weird time for my kids. Because my daughter, whos 15, is now alone in the house with my wife and i, because her older sister is in college. Jimmy right. And thats not fun for a kid to live with their parents alone. Because four people is a family and three is a child observing a weird couple. [ laughter ] [ applause ] jimmy guys, check this out. Judd apatow. [ cheers and applause ] his standup special, judd apatow the return is available now on netflix.
