Dumb and Dumber 2 (with Carey and Daniels)

http://www.rte.ie/ten/2011/0308/carreyj.html

so the farrelly brothers confirmed they would love to make a sequel starring carey and daniels. this has to be one of the best comedy movies ever and one of my favorite films ever.

the prequel was ****ing atrocious and was one of the worst films i ever witnessed but with carey back i think i would enjoy seeing a sequel. id love to see harry and lioyd back together and a cheeky cameo by seabass

whats your thoughts ? do you think they should leave a classic alone ?

Of course they should - Do we not have enough goofball comedy movies going these days, some of which where spewed out by Carrey himself after D&D1? It's something that they really could/should leave alone at this point but it's easy to say that when there will always be some small chance that they actually DO make a 'good' sequel but often decided best not to take the chance...

Personally, even with main characters in tow, I'd find it hard to think the (now much older actors in todays lolsome era where comedies are a dime a dozen) will pull off the Harry/Lloyd double-team of win AND satisfy all the fans of this classic comedy.

*shrug*

The expression "KILL IT WITH FIRE!!!" springs to mind for some reason.

Best leave the film as it is and usher 'Dumb and Dumber 2' into a dark abyss.

A properly done Dumb and Dumber sequel i.e not sh!t, still wouldn't top the first. Surely movie makers must realise this?

Most recent thing I've seen him in was the ho-hum "I Love You Philip Morris"..

Im all for it,given it might not surpass the original but no doubt we will have at least a good comedy to watch,and fairplay to the Farrelly brothers taking a stab at it,what else you going to be watching another "Date Movie" or what ever sh!te be spewed out.

So everyone on board.

Jim Carrey refuses to do sequels. He has said time and time again that Ace Ventura 2 was the last one and he's never going to do another. Why do these type of reports keep popping up? I do not know...

Nah, what difference does it make? If its sh1t the original will still be the great film its always been, they might as well have a go. It might be even prove the pessimists wrong.

Sorry.
More a rhetorical musing about his quietness lately than anything genuinely interrogative.
