Question
who r the makers of analyze this/that and of the".... the Almighty" moveis, please?

Answer
Gabe this is a broad question.  Do you mean the producers, the directors, the studios or all of the above?

Since I don't know, I will give some production information for each film:

Analyze This (1999) & Analyze That (2002):

Director:  Harold Ramis
Producers: Jane Rosenthal & Paula Weinstein
Village Roadshow Productions & Warner Bros.

Bruce Almighty (2003):

Director: Tom Shadyac
Producers:  Michael Bostick, James D. Brubaker, Jim Carrey, Steve Koren, Mark O'Keefe, and Tom Shadyac
Universal/Spyglass

Evan Almighty (2007):

Director: Tom Shadyac
Producers: Gary Barber, Roger Birnbaum, Michael Bostick, Neal H. Moritz, and Tom Shadyac.... producer
Universal/Spyglass

If you are wanting the actors and/or other crew, I suggest going to the Internet Movie Data Base and looking up each film, where you can find all the production information you need on the films.

Expertise

I am a professor of communication at a midwest university, who has expertise on subjects related to film. I can answer general questions on U.S. film comedy (especially satires of the 1960s and 1970s) and comic theory. I also could answer questions related to specific comic genres, such as comedian comedies, screwball comedies, "stupid" comedies, and so forth. The more specific you can make your question, the better (e.g. main plot details, main characters, possible character names, possible actors, how you viewed the show, etc.). I also need to have a release date (or range of dates, or at least the year you viewed the film). Plesase do not just provide a set of links to someplace else (e.g. imdb discussion threads). I am less able to answer questions about comedies from other countries, made-for-TV movies, and recent comic films and actors (although I would do my best to find out). I cannot answer questions about specific TV shows or series, "Our Gang" episodes, anime/magna or about film collectables. I generally cannot provide movie recommendations, since what I find funny others may not. Nor will I answer obvious homework (although I will point you to resources to help answer the question, if asked). I also can't help you find movie stars, or where to buy movie memorabilia, or tell you how to break into the business.
