Kubrick met with Martin after watching The Jerk, and they developed the beginnings of the plot

Yes, and Kubrick did some work with Martin during the 20+ year development period Eyes Wide Shut went through.

No. He wanted to possibly cast him in the movie. After spending the evening with Martin, Kubrick moved on. So the movie WAS NOT inspired by Martin

Martin is just overstating his importance in life, as most humans often do

Please do not correct this subject line. I don't want to search for Steve Martin in the future and accidentally fall into this thread again.
