I first saw Merlin on DVD then saw it a while back when it came on tv once...
MAB! I was at a party store, looking for stuff for my Red Queen costume, and I stumbled upon this ring that I ended up buying for the costume. But it very much does remind me of that ring Mab wears... 'tis plastic, but it's a large, red, rectangular gem. I feel like Mab when I wear it.

The only Martin Short movie I haven't seen is Mumford,and to date the only one I didn't like is Inherent Vice. But Murray is gorgeous...

Hello welcome to the forum! I fear I haven't seen all that much of Martin Short. I love him in Merlin. For the pains he took to master the accent, for pulling off all of the shapechanging, I really admire his acting. He is Frik. Perfect sidekick to Mab. One of my favourite things about Frik is that he is not just there for fun, his relationship with Morgan is so tender and sweet as well. How often does the 'comic relief' get a hearttouching romance? They are one of my all time favourite couples. Right up there with Gomez and Morticia and Althene and Rachaela. Other Martin Short: I have seen him in Prince Charming, in Alice in Wonderland (ah Frik and Mab together again), in that film with the girl from Matilda and a wonderful Kathleen Turner (honestly that finale made me think of Mab vs Frik), I loved his voice/character in The Spiderwick Chronicles. I called him Frik throughout, who am I kidding, I call him Frik in anything. Oh and I saw him 'on the big screen' in that Disneyland studios ride (I will look up the name). I was so happy with that surprise. -Okay so it appears I only watch Fantasy.-

Just so you know, the Disney big screen thing is called CineMagique and the thing with Mara Wilson and Kathleen Turner is A Simple Wish. Poor Martin manages to get A. Beaten up, B. Knocked out (or faints), C. Bullied/imprisoned/tied up, D. Made to cry or E. A combination of the above in almost everything he's in!
His role as Eugene Proctor in Pure Luck is especially funny!

Martin Short is one of those actors who I don't really go looking for, but who I seem to see in a lot of stuff regardless. Most recently, I was watching a show called "Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt", and he cropped up in one of the episodes as a plastic surgeon, so that was a nice, Merlin-related surprise.
Other than that (and Merlin, obviously), I've seen:
- A Simple Wish - Father of the Bride (1 + 2) - The Prince of Egypt - Prince Charming - The Spiderwick Chronicles - Treasure Planet - Alice in Wonderland (I did actually seek this one out, as I knew in advance that he and Miranda were both in it) - Jungle 2 Jungle - The Pebble and the Pengiun
I actually didn't realise he was in all of these before I imdb'd them for this post XD I guess that's the problem with doing a lot of VO work...
I have seen "The Wind Rises", but not the English dubbed version so I haven't actually heard his appearance in that (incidentally, a good film but not one of the best Ghiblis I've seen).

The English dub of 'The Wind Rises' is pretty good! Marty is the short, shouty man.

Martin Short is one of those actors who I don't really go looking for, but who I seem to see in a lot of stuff regardless. He does continuously pop up in unlikely places lol. I never go looking for him since I wanted to stab Frik with a fork for most of the Merlin movie. I just don't like that character. He's not a bad actor. I spotted him again recently when watching old X-Files interviews. Here he is interviewing FBI Agent Scully: www.youtube.com/watch?v=nmS8Y7fC2C0Also funny, Scully and Mulder finally "do it" on live TV after 20 years of waiting: www.youtube.com/watch?v=L6pLxYXpW8I
