I will never understand his wide spread popularity. I never bought into his stand up (and I performed stand up myself...though not with the same level of sucess!)...and rarely "got" his movies. I enjoyed Popeye...and Good Will Hunting...that's about it. Oh, and that movie where he played the killer in the Alaskan wilderness. However, the last two I mentioned were not comedies...but did showcase his range as an entertainer.
