Bill Murray
Funny is a subjective thing. One person may think clever wordplay is the soul of comedy, while someone else may go into uncontrollable spasms any time anything anywhere breaks wind. So while it may be tough to judge, there's no denying that a strong combination of versatility, solid career choices, and utter fearlessness will result in a comedian being considered one of the best of all time. With that in mind, here is our list of the 50 funniest actors of all time. 50. ROBIN WILLIAMS You could forgive people for thinking that a manic stand-up who fired off impressions like a Tourette Gatling gun might not have much of a film career ahead of him. Who knew the guy had legitimate chops, too? ...
A superhero franchise is only as good as the actor playing the lead role. And when they do a terrific job as the superhero they are portraying, such as Robert Downey, Jr. in "Iron Man," it’s hard to imagine anyone else filling those shoes. However, the role that thrust Downey back into super stardom was almost played by another actor entirely. The same goes for many other iconic comic book characters over the years. This list will hit on some of the most interesting, and hopefully more than a few that you never even heard about. Tom Cruise as Iron Man It was long in the making that Tom Cruise would star ...
Every man has had a role model he aspires to be like at some point in his life, whether that person is a scientific genius with massive potential to impact the world or an ordinary Johnny-on-the-spot from Chicago with a knack for getting a laugh out of people in the most awkward of ways. Whether your role model points you in the right direction or a little off road, it's best to have one, even as an adult, to keep yourself checked and balanced, someone whose personality screams fearless, forthright, unique, calming and yet embraces the good-natured playfulness of childhood.

7. Neil Patrick Harris ("Harold and Kumar Go to White Castle") He may have overplayed his hand by the third installment, but NPH's original cameo in "White Castle," playing a women-chasing, drug addicted, sex-crazed hitchhiker version of himself was hilarious. The role was only enhanced when he came out of the closet two years later, making the version he plays of himself that much more far-fetched and comically inaccurate. 6. Tom Cruise ("Tropic Thunder") You know it's a good cameo when the random guy sitting next to you in the movie theater doesn't say a word to you until Tom Cruise's big dance number at the end of the film, when he turns to you and says "Holy shit! Is that Tom Cruise?" ...
Attending a golf tournament can be hazardous to your health. In honor of the 2012 U.S. Open kicking off, here's video evidence that you take your life (and your backside) into your hands anytime you step on a course. Anthony Kim puts one on the wrong back nine. Charles Barkley was the round mound of rebound. And apparently the sultan of slice. The announcer really gets into this spectator taking a ball to the head. Bubba Watson takes out a fan (much to the delight of the woman just off-camera.) This might be fake. That makes it OK to laugh. Sergio Garcia has never been a big fan of photographers. Or of their heads, by the sound of this video. During a Pro-Am tournament ...
Someday, fingers crossed, “Ghostbusters 3” will be made. But don’t expect Dr. Peter Venkman' to strap into a Proton pack anytime soon. Dan Akyroyd recently confirmed that Bill Murray has no plans on joining the rest of the gang for Ghostbusters 3. In an interview with the Telegraph, Akyroyd said, “I honestly don’t know. At this point it’s in suspended animation. The studio, the director Ivan Reitman and Harold Ramis feel there must be a way to do it, but Bill Murray will not do the movie. He doesn’t want to be involved. He’s got six kids, houses all over America. He golfs in ...
