My cousin, Patrice Martinez, was the female lead in Three Amigos an had nothing but kind words for Martin and the whole cast. Unfortunately she passed away in 2018, but have fond memories of her and the funniest trio of amigos!.
She was so beautiful. As a 17 year old I was smitten when she appeared on screen.
I'm sorry for your loss. She was lovely in that role.
@Sarah Kelly Thank you, Sarah! Patrice also was in the tv show, "Zorro" and Beellejuice as the green receptionist. Her brother, Benito is also a successful actor!
I'm sorry for your loss, what a beautiful and exciting life she must have lived
May she always be remembered fondly ❤️
Judy, thank you for sharing that. That movie is one of my all time favorites, and it saddens me that "Carmen" is no longer with us. She was absolutely stunning, and such a great actress. Your comment just adds a sense of,.. "these are real people too"... I don't know how to explain it,.. but ,.. I am sorry for your loss. She was great.
How dare.
He not do *PREMINGER.* He is *LITERALLY* the most *ICONIC CHARACTER OF **_ALL_** CHARACTERS.*
Preminger is the reason I know who Martin Short is. I'm 19 for context
I WAS LITERALLY JUST THINKING THAT
Omg I just commented on the lack of Preminger too 😂
The only reason I started watching was to see him talk about Preminger. Thank you for saving me some time lol 😂
THANK U! 🙄
OK, Short just *revealed* a brilliant way to deal with an angry wife. When she says "I'd rather talk to ED" he then *brings-out the character to DEFEND her.* That's just pure *genius.* Wow.
I guess that’s how they stayed married for 30yr (until she passed away).
Does anyone else wish he would've talked about 1994's Clifford? So underrated.
Clifford is the reason I clicked on this video, it was my favorite of his
Omg best comment
I clicked this to hear about Clifford as well
San Franciscoooo, open your gooooolden gate...
YES!
Larry the scary Rex, he’s a scary dinosaur, but dont be scared of his sharp sharp teeth, or his mighty mighty roar!
Inner Space is absolutely one of the most underrated movies of the 1980s. It is an amazing sci-fi and just so ridiculously funny.
That was weird. The Innerspace segment came on right as I came upon your comment. I love that movie.
Inner Space was the FUNNIEST movie ever. It is my most favourite of ALL of Martin shorts movies!!!
Loved it!!
I love Martin Short. He’s adorable and definitely one of the good guys
Was just about to say something along those lines. I love this guy
Ironically he’s quite tall. About 6’8”.
I like that even though he’s in quarantine Martin still dresses up for interviews
LaDonna Scott Old school cool
That's pretty decent I must say.
And wears make up
@@biegebythesea6775 and gloves.
I feel like we've reached a time where we need to get all these great comedy legends in one movie, in this day and age, Steve Martin, Eddie Murphy, Bill Murray, Martin Short, Catherine O'Hara, Eugene Levy, Chevy Chase, Dan Aykroyd... the time has come for The Expendables of Comedy
Grown Ups kind of did with all of Adam Sandlers buddies in the two films. Chris Rock, Adam, David Spade, Rob Schnieder, he had a show he was busy on so backed out of sequel, Maya Rudolph, Tim Meadows, Norm MacDonald, but some scenes were deleted for time, Jackie Sandler, his wife, his real kids, Saide and Sunny, Kevin James , who he worked with before and producer Paul Blart movies for, NIck Swardon, in the sequel with whom Adam is close friends with and produced his Bucky Larson film, Oliver Hudson, in the sequel who worked with Spade on Rules Of Engagement and is son of Goldie Hawn and brother of Kate Hudson, Ellen Cleghorne, Colin Quinn, Andy Samberg, Bobby Monihan, Taran Killam, Paul Brittain, and Wille Forte...the last few were uncredited as cheerleaders and so on. Not the people you mentioned but SNL actors and comedians who worked with Sandler were all in the two films.
brilliant idea and well the important ones are in! I might add Rick Moranis (if he wants to) and to make it international some former Pythons: John Cleese, Eric Idle, Michael Palin!
Maybe a remake of It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World, only THIS time, make it FUNNY.
That ain't the way comedy works. That is a recipe for disaster.
@@KnickKnack07 You don't have to watch it. You probably like Paul Blart or Pauly Shore.
How can anyone not adore Martin Short? ❤😍
I’ll tell you how. He’s a libTARD, is infected with Trump derangement syndrome and can’t keep his hate for Trump, out of his interviews. How many times did he make vailed insults directed at the president. Too many for me. I used to admire Short. He’s proven himself a liberal idiot and THAT is how someone can NOT adore him. Go back to Canada Short, YOU’RE NOT WELCOME HERE!
He forgot his most iconic role, Preminger
I WAS LOOKING FOR THIS COMMENT
BAHAHAHAH
I mean seriously!!!! How could he Refuse??????
YES
I LITERALLY CAME TO THIS VIDEO TO SEE IF HE'D MENTION IT
If he doesn't talk about Barbie Princess In the Pauper I'm gonna throw a fit
Did you throw a fit then?
One of the most naturally hilarious people on this planet!
Can you give me an example of somebody unnaturally funny?
@@johnsmith-wx5fb Meaning unscripted dumbass.
@@PatrickKeating dumbass? Moi? Dumbass?
He's wonderful.
@Sarah Kelly you're one of the most natural comment writers writing today
For a minute between the mid 90s- early 00s it was "uncool" to like Martin and his style of humour but I love how he just made a massive comeback with Jiminy Glick, one of the funniest characters of all time.
Revisting his comedy lately I realise he's just as funny to me now as when I was a kid. A very rare talent
Umm what? When was he ever uncool?
@@joshbrucks Was that just a UK thing? I noticed spelling of humour in that comment. Anyway, it was always cool to love Martin Short. He is the King of Character Comedy. And one of Canada's greatest gifts to the world.
Yeah I remember the Arrested Development episode he was in was not well received.
I loved Martin Short in "Alice in Wonderland". I think it came out in like 1998 or 1999. I got the movie as a gift and watched it repeatedly, and I still have the original VHS. Wonderful actor!
Clifford will always be my favorite movie 😄
An underrated classic :)
It’s amazing. His face when he is mad is something we do around the house a lot.
Not seen that one
"Bestest...LOOKING WIG I have ever seen!!! I meant it as a compliment!!"
I saw the 3 Amigos thumbnail and hit Play. Love Martin Short!!
Innerspace is a great movie.
He is a talented funny man. Loved everything he has done
right on! One of my favorites too!! So ahead of its time.
It made my heart so happy that they showed the clip where he is dancing to Twistin the Night Away
Old.cheesy movie. MS great in it....cant forget DQ....got that joker smile.......😁😁😁😁😁🧡
Agreed. It's on my list of all-time favorites.
This guy will always be Premenger to me.
The fact that Princess and the Pauper isn't here, is a literal crime
For being 70 years old hes looking pretty young... Good job Martin! Keep it up!
The Three Amigos was my first introduction to Martin Short. I was 4 years old when it came out. I can't tell you how many times my family played that movie. It's still iconic and I love it. I've loved everything I've seen Martin in. He's such an adorably funny guy. :) I loved him in Father of the Bride.
Same! one-thousand %😁
The Three Amigos was one of my family's favourite films growing up. We still do the little 'dance' thing they did even now :D
Jiminy Glick can still make me laugh till I cry.
Feel like Pure Luck and Clifford are underrated.
He talked about Clifford in his book "I Must Say". The movie was delayed for three years while Orion was going bankrupt. Haven't seen Pure Luck but I really enjoyed Clifford. It was just on Hollywood Suite a few nights ago.
So talented. Love his deep friendship with Steve Martin.
they forgot his most important role preminger
I get the sense that Martin Short is trying to tell us something.
I get a crazy feeling that he may not care for the current president...
Hmmm... you know... I think you're right... LOL
@@the_original_Bilb_Ono How brave of him... Especially in Hollywood where political opinions differ wildly.... SO, SO brave and original.
@@Starch-Wreck It amazes me how many celebrities let the president stay in their head rent free. According to brain scans, the part for love and hate are indistinguishable. Maybe they secretly love him but can't come to terms with it.
@@Starch-Wreck Who said it was brave or original? It's neither of those things. It is true though.
Such a shame that Preminger is considered too niché to be talked about!
How dare they not cover Clifford and Captain Ron!!!
Joe Permenter criminal!
Agreed, Captain Ron is my favorite of all his films.
@@annabelle42688 Ted's!
Played it straight as the dad in Captain Ron, he nailed it. "GOrilla"
Herb Moore not geRilla
one of my favorite movies!
@@dillMANbaby I was actually kind of stunned it didn't get better reviews, both pros and viewers. I'm a sailor so of course it's in my top comedy list.
omgosh YEEEESSS! How was Captain Ron not talked about?! It is fantastic!
Martin Short is quite iconic, I must say.
Oh If I got to meet Martin Short, like I suppose you can do better than that! No way. It just seems to me he would be a pretty decent guy, I must say.
I love Martin Short to the moon and back. Jiminy Glick is my favourite of his creations and one of the best comedic characters ever.
I love Martins films, but it was cool to hear him speak so highly of Nick Nolte. I loved three fugitives..
Loved the movie as a child and today. Do you know in the united states the original french movie Les Fugitifs with Pierre Richard and Gerard Depardieu? Loved it even more. But that's just because Pierre Richard was huge in Germany during the 80's. One of my favorite european comedians. Was or is he known in the US?
Please for the love of god do one of these with Steve Buscemi
I want a Gene Hackman edition!
Martin Short and Steve Martin.
The best comedy duo of all time!
You better check out Only Murders in the Building. The duo plus Selena Gomez 😍
Love Catherine O'Hara now, but Catherine in 1977: WOW!
"The *WINK-WINK, NUDGE-NUDGE* is strong in this video...I'm down"
Cannot believe He's 70 ~ It's like Martin turned 40 and just froze in time...
he's still probably about 25 years younger than the character he played on "Arrested Development"
How else could he have been the lead in Clifford?
What are you talking about, he's obviously forever 12
@@hollyshouse928 Well, forgive my fallopians.
"I think it's a mail/male plane."- Three Amigos.
How can you tell?
@@bubmer its tiny balls
can not help but smile when ever this man is on screen. what a joyful soul.
_I've been bowing, I've been scheming and I'm lying on a rug_
_And for ten long years I've had to pay my dues_
That small pin on Martin's lapel shows that he is a Member of the Order of Canada. He is also featured on our seven dollar bill.
😂😂😂
This really Great. Martin Short has played such diverse characters. He is Great in whatever he does. 😍
Pure luck was pure comedic genius. Love that movie.
I'm so happy people remember that movie!
I must say, just a natural talent. His characters are so over the top! Character actors borrow bits and pieces of people they’ve met or know and they evolve, create and morph into something new... the power of influence! Thank you Martin Short for your legendary character portrayals, we love you!
This was awesome GQ. Thank you Martin Short for your decades of amazingness.
OMG Jiminy Glick interviews Zack galifianakis between two ferns would be awesome
That would be AMAZEBALLS!!
If you want to see a really cool role Martin did, watch 1998's Merlin with Sam Neill. Amazing TV mini series movie that is my second favorite Arthurian film next to Excalibur. You wouldn't know it's Martin Short playing the roll unless you looked it up
I loved that! We recorded it off TV and I watched it all the time
Absolutely one of my favorites. Great piece.
But.... 🥺 Where's Preminger? He's as iconic as they come!
Loved this - He was so open to sharing his memories and the thought process behind his characters. Legend!
Ed Grimley was my favorite character growing up. I dressed up as Ed Grimley for 3 or 4 Halloweens in a row. It took me weeks to get the character down.
I wish there had been a Pee-wee/Ed movie. How nuts would that have been?
@@chiefscheider I know, right? And fun fact: there actually was a Saturday morning cartoon about Ed Grimley. Only lasted a season on NBC, but it is out on DVD.
His intermittent references to He Who Shalt Not Be Named super cracked me up.
Anyone else agree that he killed it in Santa Clause 3? 😁
I agree on that one.
Fantastic, the outtakes were great too.
As a performer who is currently reheasing 'Lapin Gigile' written by Steve Martin, I auditioned for most of the male roles...little voice in my head said 'approach it like Martin Short' so big, so much energy and yet so much honesty that shows in his roles. Wish this interview went into more of his characters/roles.
I swear half the time I watch these episodes there’s always 1 or 2 movies the actors never talk about I’m anticipating.
I’m thrilled Martin talked about Mars Attacks!
One of Canada's best contributions to the world. Love Martin!
My ULTIMATE favorite underrated actor. His abilities are awe-inspiring. Such a great mentor to anyone in the biz.
We need and demand a part 2!
Martin is my favorite comedy icon. He has given us so much laughter through his stand up comedy and his impressions and his characters and television shows and film appearances and award winning stage performances. I think my favorite creation of his is Jiminy Glick. That was pure genius, to make someone through whom you could fictitiously mock and insult entertainers to their faces .... brilliant.
Martin Short is one of the most talented performers in history. He did a special a number of years ago, along with some SCTV personalities, and he was incredible.
I loved "The Martin Short Show", can't believe it was on 20 years ago!
Martin will diss anyone. Even the audience.
"I'll keep making you laugh if you keep paying me"
I loved his jerry Lewis impersonation on SNL jeopardy🤣🤣
OMG!
Martin Short is one of the greatest stars ever!
He is so silly and fun!
The best Cat in the hat so far!
One of the funniest people on the planet. I want to own the entire Jiminy Click series.
Luna Lisa Hart Well most-if not all-of it is right here, on the RUclips.
Marty is so insanely talented and versatile .....completely natural and as genuine as he could be. Everyone loves Marty! !
Love how Martin skewers El Presidente without ever saying his name. :-)
Smart man
3:02
All Democrats are comedians. Well, clowns, anyway.
Martin does a really good job of explaining how he puts himself into the rolls. That was insightful!
Roles
@@Golfstar17 tell that to Jiminy
Innerspace and Merlin are some my fave movies ever, God bless you Martin Short!
12:58 YES !!! I absolutely adored Mars Attacks ! Still have the DVD :-D
Great interview. Like hearing about the method to the madness!
Barbie princess and the pauper 😂😂😂
Absolute comedic genius. Love everything he's done, so quick, witty, intelligent, and can do it all. Even in Madagascar 3, as Stefano the Sea Lion, it was better than perfect. I quote the damned movie all the time in his accent - so funny. Innerspace. C'mon. Genius. Would love to meet him
Fantastic! Martin comes across as so nice! Also such good character advice! A must watch!
Thank you, Martin! Ive enjoyed all your characters over the years.
I liked Inner Space a lot. Saw it on the big screen and at least a couple more times on tv. Three Amigos has so many great comedy memories :)
I just finished reading his book. “I Must Say”. Definitely worth the read.
You are a great comedian Martin, you made my family laugh and touched all our hearts!
'Clifford' that film always made me laugh.
Love everything Martin does.
I can’t believe he didn’t talk about Clifford! Best movie ever!!
I avoided watching it forever, but gave it a chance just the other night on Hollywood Suite. Very funny film, so much better than Problem Child, to which it is often compared.
Martin short such a charismatic, great comedian, and actor!!
he always puts a smile on my face : )
This is just so cool. It's like a master class. And it's all coming off the cuff with Mr. Short! Brilliant. Such a talent.
I agree wholeheartedly.
He is very naturally charismatic and is very quick thinking in the moment, great actor
One of the funniest humans. Love him, wish he was in more shows.
Jungle to jungle, Captain Ron, Clifford? Marty Short definitely one of the greats.
16:12 I laughed so hard and so long I couldn’t breathe! Omg old school storytelling at it’s finest. I loved every second of this video!! What a great guy!
Clifford is one of my favorite movies of all time. The scenes when he is playing the freakin' recorder. Just the best. Maya & Marty was amazing. His skit called, "The Proper Way" is my ultimate favorite. I love him sooooo much!!!!!! 😍
I wish he would have brought up that weird albino celebrity he played on SCTV - Jackie Rogers Jr. I'd love to hear the inspiration for that guy.
omg, glad you mentioned. he may have only played that character once or twice, but that skit where he's on the gameshow "100,000 dollar jackpot wad" KILLS me. it's hard to find.
Sammy Davis Junior?
That character was the pre-cursor to Austin Powers
This guy is so naturally funny, its crazy. A true original.
Can you give me an example of somebody who's unnaturally funny?
@@johnsmith-wx5fb Amy Schumer lol
@@tapsweetTop10 hahhahahahhahahahahahhah😂😂😂👌👌👌👌👌
a few years ago i got the chance to see him live on stage and wow that was amazing!
one of my favs. been watching since I was a kid. so funny
"Remind you of anybody?"
Lol, it reminds me of everybody
I´m reading the description and seeing him in front of me, and for some reason my brain can't understand that he is the same person playing all those rolls. That's what I call good acting.
He is an amazing actor! Always loved his characters
The man is an absolute treasure. I love everything he does but if I'm honest, the crazier the character the better for this guy. Top of the list being the Mad Hatter
I lost count of the jabs at Trump. 🤭🤭 Great interview! So glad he talked about Franck. Loved him in Father of the Bride I & 2!
Why isn't Uncle Jack in this? "To the Nuts!"
I'm noticing a deffinite lack of Clifford
I have had an unbelievable crush on Martin since I was a kid. He's so amazing! ❤
Wedding planner Franck Egglehoffer is my fave .😂😂😂😭
I love Martin Short. He is so funny!
