I'm not sure you cats listing Jim Carey and Robin Williams really understand the point of the thread, but you baws do you.

(ETA: Goodman, either, for that matter - launching point was a sitcom, relatively long line of comedies with the Coens, etc.)

I guess it's more of a cameo, but Thomas Jane in Scott Pilgrim.
