I do like Green Earrings though and most of Pretzel Logic.
I LOVED you man!!

Team Joey on this one. I just can't enjoy it at all. Generally despise it.

What did y'all think of the Jim & Andy doc on Netflix, about the making of Man on the Moon?

Watched Truman Show last night. It's been a couple of decades since I've done that. Not nearly as good of a story as I remember, but of course some key scenes tugged at the heart strings. My big issue was that the rising action felt very rushed, and there's zero payoff when it comes to Truman confronting Meryl and Marlon. I guess Meryl just got written out of the show and that's how TV works, but the audience really deserves an epic tell-off of Marlon. With film as well as TV, you don't always get what you want. So it goes.

As for this film being one of Carrey's best roles? Absolutely.

If I were required to rewatch a Jim Carrey movie tomorrow, that’d be the one.

I loved it. I don't think Jim comes off especially good in it, which is probably what I like about it most. It feels fairly honest.
