Tim Allen's comedic life on stage and in film and TV

To millions, he'll always be known as Tim "The Toolman" Taylor. But there are many other faces to actor and comedian Tim Allen. While the hit TV sitcom 'Home Improvement' certainly cemented his reputation as one of America's favorite funny guys, Allen also delivered an equally famous role as Santa Claus in a series of well-received Christmas-themed movies, and is celebrated as the voice of Buzz Lightyear in the hugely successful 'Toy Story' franchise. But it hasn't always been smiles and laughter. An infamous brush with the law early in his career saw Allen entertain jail time, and his big-screen appearances haven't always been met with chuckles and cheer. A master of stand-up, however, he remains one of the kings of comedy, and after some 45 years in the industry he is still making us laugh. So, what's so amusing about Tim Allen? Click through and applaud one of the best comics in show business.

He was dead for two minutes - and then wrote a hit song about it

Kickstart My Heart sounds like a reckless celebration of speed, danger, and rebellion, but its origins trace back to one of the darkest moments in Mötley Crüe’s history. This video explores how Nikki Sixx’s near-fatal overdose in 1987 became the unlikely spark for one of the band’s most iconic songs. We look at the culture of excess that defined rock music in the 1980s and how Dr. Feelgood marked a turning point for a band on the brink of collapse. What emerged wasn’t just a hit song, but proof that Mötley Crüe could survive, evolve, and still sound just as dangerous.

Disney just confirmed Lilo and Stitch 2 and Incredibles 3

Disney just looked at your entire childhood and said we are not done with it yet. Disney's new CEO Josh D'Amaro made it official at the shareholders meeting. Lilo and Stitch 2 is coming May 26th 2028, Memorial Day weekend, and Incredibles 3 hits theaters exactly three weeks later on June 16th 2028. The live action Lilo and Stitch made over a billion dollars last year and broke the Memorial Day weekend opening record with 182 million dollars over four days. A sequel was always coming. Now we have a date. For Incredibles 3, Peter Sohn takes over as director, marking the first entry in the franchise without Brad Bird at the helm, though Bird stays on as screenwriter and producer. Craig T. Nelson, Holly Hunter and Samuel L. Jackson are all returning to voice the Parr family. And for Lilo and Stitch 2, Chris Sanders who co-wrote and directed the original 2002 animated film is back to write the sequel and will again voice Stitch himself. That is 10 years since Incredibles 2 and 14 years since the original film. The wait has been long. But 2028 is looking like one of the biggest years Disney has ever put together. Ohana means family. And this family just got a lot bigger.

Actors who hated their iconic on-screen costumes

Part of the magic of being an actor is completely disappearing into a role. Sometimes, however, that magic act relies heavily on a physical transformation as opposed to merely adopting new behaviorisms. Physical transformations like getting buff can have the added bonus of, well, being buff, but costumes are where things get a little annoying. And by "a little," we mean a lot. From having to sit through eight torturous hours' worth of makeup, to sweating dangerous amounts inside full-body suits during long shoot days, many actors' most iconic roles also feature the costumes they hated most. Click through to see which costumes actors hated the most, and why exactly they were so tormented by them.

Movies & TV shows you forgot Donald Trump had a cameo in

Before he entered politics, President Donald Trump was a familiar face in pop culture, making appearances in a surprising number of movies and TV shows throughout the 1990s and early 2000s. Perhaps his most memorable cameo came in the Christmas classic ‘Home Alone 2: Lost in New York.’ In the movie, Kevin McCallister, played by Macaulay Culkin, finds himself inside New York's Plaza Hotel, which Trump owned at the time. After getting lost, Kevin asks Trump for directions to the lobby, leading to one of the movie's most iconic scenes. Trump also made a brief appearance in the hit HBO series ‘Sex and the City.’ In a season two episode, he plays himself having drinks with a business associate. After Trump leaves, his friend uses their connection to strike up a conversation with Samantha, played by Kim Cattrall. One of Trump's longer television appearances came in ‘The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air.’ In the episode titled ‘For Sale by Owner,’ he arrives at the Banks family home hoping to buy it. When the family believes he is offering $1 million over market value, they begin imagining what the extra money could do for their future in a brief but memorable two-minute scene, before he ultimately walks away after realising he has the wrong address. Surprisingly, Trump was also one of several celebrity cameos in Ben Stiller's 2001 comedy ‘Zoolander.’ Appearing alongside Melania Trump during a red carpet segment, he jokingly tells a reporter that without Derek Zoolander, male modeling would not be what it is today. He even appeared in the 1994 family comedy ‘The Little Rascals,’ playing the father of Waldo. Before a go-kart race begins, Waldo calls his dad, promising to get the win, prompting Trump to deliver the memorable line, "You're the best son money can buy."
