Only when it feels really mean-spirited. Most non-"PC" jokes I can write off. But the last act of Ace Ventura is a good example of one that feels particularly gross. It leaves a bad taste for me.
Ace Ventura 2: When Nature Calls is a better movie anyway

Re: Alanis
and did you feel that as a kid?
I feel that any kind of problem those movied had, i kinda already knew back in the day. And i still enjoy them.
Not ace ventura, i hated it as a kid. Never saw the second one.

Re: Alanis
No, I didn't really think about whether jokes were mean-spirited as a kid. Kids are cruel!

i only remember Stan Lee and thinking the guys were all losers.
Chasing Amy was an instant favorite to me, i saw it on the theatres and loved it.

Re: Alanis
not always, but often; when I was a child all I knew of trans women was as monsters or the stuff of jokes; it affected me, as someone who would find she was one, so if there's that stuff in it, I find it very difficult to watch now

Re: Alanis
Wayne's World 2 is better than 1
Ace Ventura 1 is a lot better than 2 (they didn't understand the character in 2)
Mallrats is a nice little movie that I can still look back fondly at, though it's very dated.
Nobody asked and this has nothing to do with anything but The Addams Family 2 is a lot better than 1.
Who's Alanis?

They got it all wrong! In the first movie, he's not a moron. He's a misunderstood genius who often plays the fool to trick people into letting their guard down.Jorge wrote:Oh yeah THE PEOPLE WHO MADE THE CHARACTER DIDN'T UNDERSTAND THE CHARACTER
SURE SURE OK
In the second movie, he's just an idiot clown stumbling and bumbling his way from one wacky setpiece to the next. Z-grade comedy.

Re: Alanis
It’s not unusual for a character to become more and more one note or even a parody of themselves from movie to movie or season to season. It’s not so much not understanding the character it’s laziness.
