Dennis Hopper Makes His Only Appearance With Johnny | Carson Tonight Show

Obama, go away!

It's too bad Hopper didn't get involved in DOORS movie...he could have added goose bumps to that
film. Morrison if done right would
be chilling & it would never go away.
Very Spooky GENIUS

When did Dennis Hopper die?

Still watch all Johnny reruns that's a guy you just can't get enough of both of these guys are sorely missed

Dennis Hopper has the greatest laugh ever.

I love the George Burns story lol.

Dennis was underrated as an actor.

I loved his character in Water World, very underrated film.

Blessings be upon them 🙏🙏🙏

I remember watching this the night it premiered

Dennis Hopper was a true icon. Worked with Dean and Brando, made films with some of the greatest directors, kickstarted a new countercultural revolution in American cinema with Easy Rider, ingested enough drugs and alcohol to kill most mortal men three times over, and crawled his way back into the limelight after numerous personal and professional setbacks. I doubt we'll see many of his caliber again.

No talk show hosts today have the gravity Johnny had with his guests. It's hard to explain, but Johnny and the guests were usually stars talking amongst themselves.

My 1st and only taping of a Tonight Show before Johnny retired 8 months later..I was in the audience ...you hear me say "yeah!!" At 1min 29sec when Johnny mentions "Blue Velvet "...

Hopper was SO convincing in "Blue Velvet" that I felt a nearly irresistible urge to hide under the couch whenever he appeared on screen. He made me want my mommy.

If Dennis was still alive i wonder how hed feel about the new Mario movie

Loved him in "Hoosiers".

Loved him as an actor! Seems to be a cool guy

What a way to be introduced! "Everybody thought you'd just burn out and fade away,but.. . here you are!"

As you get older you realize how smart these people are. Stars. It's really very impressive. And Johnny's curiosity about someone kind of different is part of why he was such a darn good interviewer. Fun to watch thanks.

Loved him in Speed

Surprised to hear that Easy Rider was shot in 1967...very early, almost too early for the film to have that blasé, burnt-out, "fin de siècle" sensibility.

RIP, HOP, you are missed...

Blue Velvet is the most frightening movie I ever saw!!

I HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO TALK TO DENNIS TWICE . NICEST, MOST REAL GUY IN THE WORLD. JUST AS YOU'RE SEEING HERE.

Hopper was excellent on screen and behind the camera

He was a great actor for sure

I could listen to Hopper all day telling stories and his laughter is contagious...

Johnny was great.

Mutual respect among consummate professionals is always a delight to behold.

When Danny said he liked Johnny’s speech 🥹

double crossed is good

Bad not to have the complete interview

Dennis Hopper, my wife, and I have 1 thing in common. All 3 of us were born at the same hospital in Dodge City Kansas.

Great interview. The secret to letting the guest speak. A lot of the podcast hosts today could learn a thing or two .

I really miss Dennis Hopper. It would've been something else to hangout with him, Dean Stockwell and friends back in the wild days. Such a cool original guy. "Oh you're a neighbor from the neighborhood. What's your name neighbor? How about we go for a ride...."

Johnny Carson's voice wasn't deep anymore at later age 🤔

A friend of mine (blueberry farmer today, rock & roll road manager in the past) was a friend of Hopper’s in his California days. Dennis visited him in Vancouver where the two of them posed in front of a London Drugs sign, obscuring the London part. Nobody in VanCity recognized him. Quite a guy..

Carson was an exceptional communicator. Most folks don't even know what communication is but talking to someone might be 1/20th and listening might be 1/20th and there is much more to it. Carson was so exceptional in the subject of communication that no talk show host has ever come close. I don't know what is happening today (well actually I do) but there is such a lack of ability that any one person could swoop in and take over late night. Not Letterman (terrible communicator) or Leno or anyone in the Liberal Talk Show circuit is worth piss.

Extraordinary guy, lived so many lives. Met his brother still in Taos (great doc. on him called Along For The Ride). RIP the great Dennis

The deafening silence at Dennis's praise of Sean Penn is uncomfortably telling.

A WORLD WITHOUT BIRDS – Daddy, take me to a bird place to
see birds. I can't. Why not? 'Cause there are no birds left anywhere!
How come? They were all eaten by fat women. Are you fat? I am a
little tubby but not from eating birds. The woman at the airport said
that you were a fat piece of sh*t and that she wouldn't have sex with
you if you paid her twice as much as last time. Don't listen to quim-
licking sk*nks because they're worse than Tim H*tler. Okay I won't.

Two legends. Well done.

Dennis was so cool. Great artist.

Very cool and every time I watch a Carson interview I am reminded why he is considered the king of late night

TWO SELF CONGRATULATING SPECIMENS...WENT OK...

Nothing better than Dennis's role of Shooter in Hoosiers.

I watched Out of the Blue [1980] a few months back & it’s still a underrated classic.
Linda Manz & Dennis knock it out of the park.

These two are pure class. Can you imagine a conversation like this on todays shows? I can’t.

Hey, man, what are you doing? Come over here, I gotta talk to you man. Hey man, everything that we ever dreamed of is in that teardrop gas tank and you got a stranger over there pourin' gasoline all over it. All he's got to do is turn and look over into it, man, and he can see that...
