Date: 2002-09-19 01:40 pm (UTC)Actually, Jim Carrey doing anything but getting permanent, incurable laryngitis that ends his Hollywood career forever is, well, an abomination.

Date: 2002-09-19 01:55 pm (UTC)But he could prove us all wrong?
(no subject)
Date: 2002-09-19 02:10 pm (UTC)1. Mr Carrey proving us all wrong and turning in a commendable performance,
or
2. Mr Carrey being struck by space debris and instantly vaporised.
I'm cool with either of those.

... on second thought *takes off glasses* <-- much less painful, yet still surprizingly effective.
Jim Carrey ...
Date: 2002-09-19 08:18 pm (UTC)...is capable of more range than The Duck Factory and Once Bitten.
...had his last jumpity-wacky-man hurrah as The Grinch, I think.
...is getting too old to do more jumpity-wacky-man roles.
...gave a fine showing of himself in Liar Liar, The Truman Show, and The Majestic -- all underrated films that show he is capable of more than yelling, screaming, and making stupid potty humor references.
Give him a chance.
People boggled at Michael Keaton as Batman.
They boggled at Tobey Maguire as Spider-Man.
They boggled at
George Clooney as Batman[okay, bad example].Besides, Count Olaf is supposd to be an over the top, classic, moustache-twirling nyah-ha-hah!, tie-you-to-the-train-tracks Snidely Whiplash-got-nuthin-on-me bad guy.
Even downplaying his jumpity-wacky-man schtick, Carrey is suited for the role.
If you're gonna slam the poor guy, suggest someone better.

Re: Jim Carrey ...
Date: 2002-09-20 06:20 am (UTC)As for my suggesting somebody better for the role (oh, gosh, pretty much any male and quite a few female members of SAG), how on earth is that going to affect the situation? It might kill some time on a long drive, but my influence with American filmmaking pretty much stopped
after my brain was harvested from its hidden cryogenic vault under Sleeping Beauty's castle and transplanted into a trusting little girl's bodyI filled out that survey about the Death to Smoochy trailer. And they released the movie anyway.Re: Jim Carrey ...
Date: 2002-09-20 10:01 am (UTC)So they do pay some attention to the filmgoing public.
Maybe you could write whatever studio is producing the film and eloquently tell them in your ever so cool Anne Larimer way while you believe Mr. Carrey is ill-suited to the role, and inform them that you will use your considerable RL and internet influence to get friends and acquaintances to boycott.
Hmm. What about Alan Rickman or Ron Silver [the poor man's Alan Rickman]?
Better evil?

Date: 2002-09-23 03:13 pm (UTC)Haha! I didn't see this one.
Of course your hand slipped on the keyboard, and you meant to say that Jim Carrey "wants to play a meaningless tertiary character killed by Count Olaf." Perhaps in the course of a horrid dinner of pasta puttanesca.
Right?
Right?
