Steve Martin is a veteran actor that is well-known for his comedy films. He has been around for more than 30 years and has accumulated numerous awards from his films. He’s not only an actor but also a stand up comedian, a writer, producer and a musician.

Before he got into the movie industry, he was a stand up comedian. It’s pretty obvious that he is still is until now with the way he charismatically joke around the press during interviews. With his natural ability to entertain the audience, it’s always an experience full of laughter when watching Steve Martin movies.

His first appearance was in a movie Disneyland Dream, way back in 1956. The movie was about a family who won a trip to Disneyland. Steve, who played as a Disneyland worker, appeared about twenty minutes into the movie. You would see some good old shots of the Southern Carolina in this movie. Recently, the US National Filming Registry found this movie as being historically and culturally significant, and thus endorsed the movie for preservation.

Steve’s biggest hit came in 1977. He played a part of a poor waiter who can’t seem to do anything right, in a movie entitled The Absent-Minded Waiter. This was only a very short 7-minute movie, but it was nominated in the Academy Awards.

Steve Martin’s ability to portray a different character other than a comedian was tested in the 1989 in a movie entitled, Pennies from the Heaven. He had to totally switch his persona to this new, more serious plot. He even had to learn tap dancing as his role had to have some dancing scenes. To the delight of his fans, he did perform really well. On that same year, Steve Martin won the Golden Globe Awards for Best Actor, which definitely was the pinnacle of his career at that point.

Steve has been around the movie business for quite a while now. He has some extensive list of great movies that has entertained many of us.

It was just a year ago that one of his most popular movie, The Pink Panther 2, was released. He played a detective, a very clever and fashionable one, who teams up with other detectives around the world to bring in The Cat Burglar, the movies own rendition of a cat woman type of villain. This movie is definitely a great sequel to it’s predecessor that was released way back in 2006.

Another one of the later Steve Martin Movies which was just released in 2009 is It’s Complicated. If you’re asking what the movie is all about, well, it’s complicated. This romantic comedy film portrays the complicated life of a woman (Jane) who is still into his ex-husband and now plays the “other woman” role in the affair. Steve plays the guy who’s in love with Jane, and finds out her affair with her ex-husband through a webcam. I know, that’s why the movie is entitled, It’s Complicated.

Disney will be releasing another movie this 2010 and Steve is part of the cast. It’s an animated movie so the guy is expected to do a voice over to one of the characters. We must admit, he’s becoming a regulary guy at Disney.

These are just some of the many Steve Martin Movies out there and for sure there are still some to come in the near future. In today’s very busy lifestyle, it couldn’t hurt once in a while to sit back, relax and enjoy some good-feel movies, and definitely, Steve Martin movies should be on the list.

Will Ferrell, once voted “most annoying performer in Hollywood”, has since become one of the biggest comedy stars in the world. He’s one of those rare performers who seems to reach across all barriers and have some appeal to, well, just about everyone. He’s funny and he’s fearless, not to mention charming. This is the right combination to have just as much appeal to the fratboy comedy crowd as to your grandmother. Here are some of the best Will Ferrell movies…

Talladega Nights

Talladega Nights: The Legend of Ricky Bobby, is simply funny from beginning to end. It’s one of Ferrell’s best roles, and a big part of this is the fact that it’s a real movie, in spite of being a spoof. It’s not like Scary Movie or Meet the Spartans where they just cite some popular films and call it a day. It’s actually got good story telling, it has likable, interesting characters with real depth and pathos, and by the end, you’ll really find yourself rooting for them.

Night at the Roxbury

A Night at the Roxbury is… Okay, not one of his VERY best, but it really has its moments. It may seem odd to take the idea of guys bobbing their heads left and right to “What is Love?” and try to flesh it out into a full length feature film, but… Ferrell and Kattan do a lot to make the most of a B grade script. So while it’s not one of his very best, it’s one of the best examples of just how funny Ferrell can be whether or not the script is there for him.

Ben Stiller’s Zoolander

In Zoolander, Ferrell plays one of his funniest roles, even to this date, as the fashion obsessed, flamboyant villain. He’s incredibly over the top, throwing hot coffee on his assistant and cursing like a sailor. The funniest scene has to be “Gasoline fight”, which Ferrell actually didn’t get to participate in, but he has every one of the rest of the movie’s biggest laughs.

Aubrey asked:

Does the editor of the movie trailer get to watch the movie way in advance so he/she can make a good preview for viewers? I’d imagine you’d have to know the movie really well to make a trailer but you see trailers months before the movie even comes out.
