frostbitmic Posted November 23, 2011 Posted November 23, 2011 How am I supposed to have a job in Rochester and buy her dinner in Hollywood ? B word is already getting bossy. Perhaps we could meet halfway, like maybe in North Dakota where much of the year a couple of her best attributes would be proudly on display.
bbb Posted November 23, 2011 Posted November 23, 2011 As with most things pop culture, I am agreeing with you again. Man, I hate Jim Carrey.
Buftex Posted November 23, 2011 Posted November 23, 2011 As with most things pop culture, I am agreeing with you again. Man, I hate Jim Carrey. Jeez, I can't stand him...I have been told by a few people "yeah, but you have to see "Eternal Sunshine". I have been told I will love that movie...but I just can't...I think he is one of the least funny "hilarious people" out there....if you ever saw the series finale of "Larry Sanders" (my favorite comedy show of all-time), Sanders can't stand him either, but has him on his last show, because he is sure to draw ratings...it is a perfect bit...he comes on and goes crazy, over the top, typical Jim Carrey schtick...I do give him (Carrey) credit for doing the show, cuz what the Sanders character says about him, is what everyone who hates him would say...

They should have a World Championship of UnFunny. The Jim Carey - Will Ferrell title bout would be something.
Cugalabanza Posted November 23, 2011 Posted November 23, 2011 They should have a World Championship of UnFunny. The Jim Carey - Will Ferrell title bout would be something. Just a dissenting opinion: I think they're both funny. Dumb & Dumber (Carey) and Anchorman (Ferrell) are very good movies, in my opinion.

I have good news for you. The Larry Sanders show is still on HBO. It took a few seasons off but I think it is back now.
The Poojer Posted November 23, 2011 Posted November 23, 2011 I'm with you...I find them both very funny and entertaining Just a dissenting opinion: I think they're both funny. Dumb & Dumber (Carey) and Anchorman (Ferrell) are very good movies, in my opinion.

Buftex Posted November 23, 2011 Posted November 23, 2011 They should have a World Championship of UnFunny. The Jim Carey - Will Ferrell title bout would be something. Another great call! Not too long ago, I was watching the last season of "The Office" on DVD (always a season behind!) and when it looked like Will Ferrell was going to take over for Steve Carrel, I started to think I wouldn't watch the show anymore...I did get a few chuckles out of his GW impression over the years (that HBO special was bad though), but I just don't find him very funny at all...though I think Carrey would mop the floor with him, in this title bout that you suggest! I have good news for you. The Larry Sanders show is still on HBO. It took a few seasons off but I think it is back now. I will not engage you crayonz...
ieatcrayonz Posted November 23, 2011 Posted November 23, 2011 (edited) I will not engage you crayonz... I just did you a favor by telling you about your show. I didn't ask you to marry me nor will I. Edited November 23, 2011 by ieatcrayonz
DC Tom Posted November 23, 2011 Posted November 23, 2011 They should have a World Championship of UnFunny. The Jim Carey - Will Ferrell title bout would be something. Ferrell was hilarious in The Producers. Probably because his "don't be funny, just be over the top" style of failing to be funny rather fit the premise of the movie. On the other hand, one of the funniest movies I've ever seen - Wedding Crashers - was completely ruined for me the moment he started yelling for meatloaf...which I suppose was meant to be funny, but I've never quite figured out why or how.
bbb Posted November 23, 2011 Posted November 23, 2011 That's what it is about both of them - I can't stand the over the top thing.
SageAgainstTheMachine Posted November 23, 2011 Posted November 23, 2011 (edited) Ferrell was hilarious in The Producers. Probably because his "don't be funny, just be over the top" style of failing to be funny rather fit the premise of the movie... ...and the premise of the character specifically. When you're dealing with a Hitler worshiping carrier pigeon keeper, there's little room for subtlety. Ferrell's a funny guy, but better in small doses. Carrey just makes funny faces. Ferrel > Carrey. If we're looking for an Unfunny Battle Royale of popular comedians, I'd pit Carrey against Dane Cook. Or how about "Larry the Cable Guy"? Edited November 23, 2011 by SageAgainstTheMachine
