Ben Stiller doesn’t think he’s a funny
In a recent interview, ben stiller mentioned that he doesn’t think he’s funny. Here’s what he said:
“I don’t think I’m super-funny. I’m not the type of guy who goes around cracking jokes a lot. I’m probably not that funny in person. I am much more comfortable just making a movie.
“I love to laugh but I’ve never enjoyed having to be the guy who’s funny because it’s a lot of pressure.”
Ben, 42, also revealed his two-year-old son Quinlin — his second child with wife Christine Taylor — is still too young to realize his dad is a famous movie star.
He added, “Quinlin is so young — he’s not even three yet — so he doesn’t see too much. He has seen a little bit of ‘Night at the Museum‘ and he seems to accept that I’m the guy in the movie.
“My daughter Ella is almost six and she just accepts it. But I don’t think it’s a normal thing. I’m sure every parent who is famous finds it hard to explain it to their kids.” - source
Honestly, aren’t MOST comedians not that funny all the time? Who really could be? What we see on the movies is the result of carefully crafted scrips, production, sets, actors, etc. Nobody could duplicate that all the time in real life. And anyway, Ben Stiller does well as kind of an “everyman” - kind of like Tom Hanks, he’s not laugh out loud funny, but he gets in such awkward situations that you can’t help but laugh.
