"JENNY: I KNOW MORE THAN SCIENCE! *fart*"
heh heh...
That gossip is so yesterday!
No surprising at all. I'm sure Jim got sick of her whole, "I cured autism" nonsense. Jim always dates his costars and it never works out. I wish he'd get back to talking out of his ass.
I wish he'd get back to "stretching" in movies like Eternal Sunshine.
I caught the Ace Ventura talking out of the ass scene a couple of weeks ago and I died laughing all over again. What sells it (aside from the entire concept of getting information by irritating the cop into submission using his ass as a ventriloquism dummy) is Tone Loc's umimpressed attitude. He's a busy man with important things to deal with but once he realizes that Jim Carrey will keep irritating him until he caves he folds.
What gets me every time is the bit with him trying to gain admittance to the mental hospital, pantomiming some football moves, then doing it in reverse and then slo-mo, then slamming his face down into the bench.
Comedy gold.
I think for me it's two things in Ace Ventura 2: when he fights his way out of the fake rhino's ass and when he's being peppered with tranq darts and running, and a whole bunch hit him and he goes "Heyyyyyy" as he goes down.
Never saw either of those movies. Not my thing.
I have to admit I've never seen them either, but now I'm intrigued.
I always think of you Octo, when I see that dart scene. I remember us discussing it and laughing our asses off.
I do despise Jenny McCarthy and her, "vaccine's cause autism" bullshit though. So I'm hoping Jim is happier!
Actually, I think the only Jim Carrey movie I like (aside from Eternal Sunshine) is The Mask, in which he actually played a real person ("Stanley Ipkiss") during the portions of the movie where he wasn't spazzing out. It's just not my thing. I don't like "spaz" comedy. (I like slapstick just fine; I just hate all that mugging and screaming.) I don't like Michael Richards, I don't like Jerry Lewis, and I don't like Jim Carrey. Give me Bill Murray, Ricky Gervais or Steve Carell any day of the week. That's comedy, and you don't have to think like a six-year-old to enjoy it.
Thank you Jordan, I thought I was the only one who liked The Mask. I also liked The Trueman Show as well.
