Sequel:''Dumb and Dumber To''

Back on December 16,1994,a film called Dumb and Dumber was released.It was directed by the Farrely Brothers and starred Jeff Daniels and Jim Carrey as Harry Dunne and Lloyd Christmas,and as the title suggests,they're pretty dumb.I grew up watching it many times over and it is one of my favorites.It was pretty successful financially too.I never watched the animated tv series because i just wasn't aware of it.

When i was still fairly young in 2003,a prequel came out called "Dumb and Dumberer:When Harry Met Lloyd".Being only eight years old,i thought it was amusing,but I saw it recently and......yeah,it's not really good,and compared to the first it's completely awful.Jeff Daniels and Jim Carrey wern't even in it!Someone else can't play their characters!The Farrely Brothers didn't direct either.But now news has been surfacing of a actual sequel now.

 

It was announced on April 1,2011 that both Jim Carrey and Jeff Daniels have signed on to the sequel and that the Farrely Brothers will return to direct it.Much of the holdup has been on Jim Carrey though who began to question if he should do this.Other than Ace Venture 2,Carrey has chosen not to appear in the sequels of movies he has been it.He didn't appear in Son of the Mask,Dumb and Dumberer or Evan Almighty.Those were definately bullets Carrey managed to dodge.On June 19,2012 he backed out of this movie because he felt the studios were not being enthusiastic about the project,but after some discussions between the two actors it seems that the project is back on....unless Carrey leaves again.

I'm very nervous about this movie.The first one was so good and i don't want this to fail.The only thing that gives me hope is that Carrey and Daniels are reprising their roles.Regarding the Farrely Brothers....they have made good movies like There's Something about Mary,Kingpin,Me Myself and Irene and Shallow Hal,but in the recent years,i haven't liked their movies like The Heartbreak Kid,Fever Pitch or Stuck on You.Their Three Stooges movie was only okay i thought.But this is familiar territory for them,so hopefully they can work some magic and make this better,if not just as good as the original.The film will probably be released in 2014.Fingers crossed for this to be good.
