Owen Wilson

When you think of the actor Owen Wilson, what is the first thing that pops into your mind?  If you were thinking about his suicide attempt, then you are weird.  If you are normal, then you were probably thinking about his many comedy movies like Wedding Crashers, Zoolander, or even Cars.  But have you ever looked at his IMDB page before?  His first movie role was in a small comedy that starred his brother, Luke, called Bottle Rocket, but then his next big part was in Anaconda.  Yeah, that terrible movie about a giant snake and Jennifer Lopez's giant ass.  Then he was in the epic Michael Bay/Ben Affleck flick, Armageddon (P.S. his character died).  Next up was a movie called The Minus Man about a serial killer and the second billed person in the movie was Sheryl Crow (I have never heard of this and I'm assuming it is because it co-starred Sheryl Crow).  And don't forget about The Haunting, that horror (?) movie with Liam Neeson and Catherine Zeta-Jones (another movie where his character dies).  What a strange start to a career for a guy who is know for his comedic chops.  I can honestly say that I can't think of another actor who was in such a strange mix of movies before someone finally realized that that actor was funny and should probably star in movies about male modeling or guys who boink bridesmaids.
