I’m watching the sequel When Nature Calls, now. Man Jim Carey was so damn funny back then. These two movies, Dumb and Dumber and Mask are just so freaking hilarious.

Just watched him come out of the Rhino. Lol
We had is so good back then with

Didn't get the love that his other movies got but it aged well. It's fantastic. I love his other movies though like The Truman Show, The Number 23, and Eternal Sunshine of a Spotless Mind. I actually never saw Man on the Moon but I wanted to.
He had a great run.

So of those roles seem so silly, but it took a unique talent like his to make them work.
He made a movie with Martin Landau, The Majestic, which never got the

Cable Guy was super underrated. One of his funniest movies IMO. The part where Broderick wakes up and Carrey casually tells him the girl he slept with was a prostitute and he can buy next time was hilarious.
Yep,

Cable Guy is awesome.
I think the rhino scene inspired

Danny Devitos to come out of the couch in Sunny. Totally worth it.
The Mask was my favorite. Carrey and Cameron Diaz were both great

and then Me Myself and Irene as a teenager. While I enjoyed his earlier stuff I wasn’t the biggest fan of that kind of comedy so they never really stuck. Slapstick isn’t my thing.

is a movie that was so confounding in that it was one you didn't think much of the first time you watch it but then you start realizing how many lines you remember/quote after.

The password for my Fantasy league was nipple for as long as I remember it being required.

Me, Myself and Irene I watched maybe a month ago for the first time in probably 12 years and I was cracking up the whole time.

love Yes Man too but that could be because of how much I was into Zoey Deschanel a the time...

Me Myself and Irene is extremely overrated. Fucking hilarious movie.

I love when his client is on the phone seeking legal advice and he just holds up the phone and screams, “Stop breaking the laaawwww, asshole!”

IIRC - this was a movie that parents took their kids too thinking it was typical Carey stuff up to that point in his career.

A little darker but still one of my fav movies of his.

Matthew Broderick is great as the straight man.

is a funny movie!

the scene when he makes Steve Carrell's character speak gibberish on live t.v. as revenge for him getting the anchor job always cracks me the fuck up.

Morgan Freeman is also the only person alive who can effectively play God.
Because Carrey is so over the top

when it comes to comedy .. I don't think he gets the attention he deserves when it comes to the very few stabs he took at serious roles.

He is an amazing actor. Before he blew up with his movie roles I remember he had a small role in a weekly series TV drama as the older child who was an alcoholic. Knocked it out of the park.

He is a talented actor.
