lmao came into this thread to post how I hear he's one of the meanest people in Hollywood
Not a jerk, not abusive, not arrogant, not demanding, just mean. Like nobody will hurt your feelings like Martin Short can
The second one, but not some autism or stupidity thing. Like he can see straight through to your greatest weaknesses and call you out on them casually in a way that makes you feel actual shame but without being aggressive about it. I think if you watch Jiminy Glick you can see him doing it but it's all done up so cartoonishly that it doesn't register how mean he's being. Most of his guests seem legit annoyed with him in those interviews, which tracks with egotistical celebs getting insulted for real
He can be way over the top, like with Glick and Uncle Jack (in Arrested Development), but he's a sharp, funny wit. I liked the compilation of him mocking Conan.
I watched Inner Space, realized I messed it up in my head with Fantastic Voyage and I had no idea it was a Martin Short vehicle since Dennis Quaid gets the poster space.
Steve Martin is like the perfect test for how old someone is. Zoomers will not get or like Steve Martin. Boomers find him hilarious. Millennials probably a mixed bag if they didn’t witness Bowfinger when it came out. It’s just a thing I’ve noticed. He’s a good litmus test.
I watched the Jerk and it wasn't funny like, a whole movie about a white dude that thinks he's black?
But some people swear it's the best movie since sliced bread?
Millenials don't regard him as a comedian at all. I knew him for Father of the Bride, Cheaper by the Dozen, and It's Complicated.
must mean they don't think of him as a stand up, because all three of his examples of things they know him from were comedies
I'm always amazed about how sharp his wit is even in old age. To me he's one of those guys that's never had that one moment of greatness in a decades long career, but you keep remembering cool, smaller things he's done one after another. Jiminy Glick is genuinely hilarious.
When I think of Martin Short I always think of picrel

He seems like a genuinely nice person.

He fooled me.
Mean as in cruel or mean as in comedians have no filter?

>Dave Foley once said to me about Jiminy, like you said, you have finally created a character who's as mean as you really are in life
reminder that he had his own cartoon
Reminder? I can't forget. I can never forget.
I didn't know the actor when I saw this. I thought he was supposed to be Asian.
He’s good. He’s like Michael J Fox except he likes playing creepy characters l
he's secretly dating meryl streep.

In all, pretty funny and absurd.
Extremely unfunny along with his pal Steve Martin. They give off Tom Hanks vibes
moron

I knew him from the 3 Amigos, so he was always a comedy actor to me
I think dingo dick here

>What do you think of Martin Short
His name is Martin and he's short.
I prefer Martin Tall
