  • For a time in the 2000s, Ben Stiller dominated big-screen comedy. As a charter member of the "Frat Pack," along with people such as Owen Wilson, Vince Vaughn, and Will Ferrell, Stiller had an incredible string of blockbuster hits, including Zoolander, Starsky & Hutch, Dodgeball: A True Underdog Story, Meet the Parents, and the Night at the Museum franchise. In recent years, Stiller's stepped away from comedy, moving behind the camera to helm acclaimed limited series such as Escape at Dannemora & Severance. In this episode of WTF Happened to this Celebrity, we take a look at his career, from his early days on The Ben Stiller Show, through his breakout in There's Something About Mary and beyond.

      I watched it recently for the first time, having huge expectations, and I was horribly disappointed. A lot of characters felt miscast, the pacing of the movie was too slow for half of the time, the dialogues taking place had little weight or depth, and just generally, the humor felt like was tailor-made for 13 yr olds. I kept waiting for the big funny thing to happen, and it never did. When JoBlo hinted that there hadn't been a comedy movie as good as Tropic Thunder since it released, it really took me by surprise. There's tons of movies that are funnier than this movie. Heck, even some non-comedy movies have been funnier than this one.
      Just my two cents..

    Severance is excellent. I was watching the first episode and really struck by the direction and cinematography, only to see Ben Stiller's name pop up in the credits! The whole series is great, but his episodes make them pop just that much more. I didn't know about his cancer diagnosis, I'm really glad to hear he's doing well now!

    Escape at Dannemora is one of the best TV series I've ever seen, absolutely love that show and have watched it multiple times, now have all the books as well because I got so invested in the story. Freaking amazing acting, cinematography, and script as well :) Plus an awesome soundtrack

    Ben Stiller has given us so much. He will always be one of the best comedic actors in history.

    Although he did a lot of comedy movies way funnier than 99% of the comedians today "The secret Life of Walter Mitty" changed my life and my perspective of how see the things. The soundtrack, the character, the photography...unfortunately Oscar had bad sight of light comedies like this movie.

    Just rewatched there’s something about Mary with my girlfriend who had never seen it before and I had forgotten how original that movie is. I wish Ben would star in more big comedies lol
    Edit: I’ve been watching Severance and it is pretty good.

    Yes, you said it right. He's a genius. But, like any comic actor, he is often considered a lower caste or a pariah compared to actors who have made great dramatic movies like Kevin Costner and Leonardo DiCaprio. In my opinion, comedy actors should be awarded twice as much as other kinds of actors because it's simple to make people cry, but very, very hard to make them laugh. You need extreme talent and ability to do so. And I'm saying this as a former movie director, artist, and arts expert.

      @@TanukiOkiyo you are actually wrong. Gerard Butler just did Olympus has fallen & London has fallen. Two really fun action movies and also Greenland was a surprisingly great disaster movie, Den of thieves was fun and a decent heist movie, Copshop was one of the most fun movies I have seen in a long time. So he didnt disappeared
