[Jim Carrey]

I don't think he really is, anymore? He had his peak and he's a decent dramatic actor when he can put aside the ridiculous faces but I get the impression that his personal life is a little... complicated. He was/is anti-vaxx and that suggests a certain level of batshittery, IMO.

I wondered the same thing in his heyday, OP.

Same, anon.

Is he really still that popular though?

No. You'd really have to go out of your way to find his presence anywhere in today's pop culture and dig up the emotional resources to be bothered by it.

sorry op
you should have fought this battle in the 90's

But he's great with a Rhino suit on.

He gives good graduation speeches though.

He hasn't been popular in ages. Especially since he turned into an anti-vaxxer.

Is he? I knew his girlfriend was at one time.

This is like a fandom secret from 1995.

Anyway, I loved his movies growing up (still do in some cases) and he is talented but... yeah anti-vaxx.

His movies have always been hit or miss for me, probably because I very easily suffer from secondhand embarrassment.

such a shame he didn't pick more dramatic roles when he was at his peak, he's a surprisingly gifted actor.

charlie kaufman characters are hard work.

I was never a huge fan either, but I think his time is past.

Personally, I feel this way about Adam Sandler. Well, without the punching...I'm just tired of him. I don't even see his films and I'm tired of him... guess that's a bit weird. (Though this too is not an unpopular opinion.)

OT: DORIAN ICON LOVE :)

Hallo, fellow Almost Human fan!

Adam Sandler is way more punchworthy IMO.

This is how I felt in 1996. Thank god it's not 1996 anymore

I still like some of his movies but he really was everywhere in the 90's, I can't imagine how annoying that must have been for people who didn't like him.

Oh, it was horrible. I avoided his movies like the plague, but there were still lots of people who thought their Jim Carrey impersonations were brilliant. I wanted to punch a lot of those faces in the '90s.

WHAT YEAR IS IT??

dahli - 2015-10-20 06:46 (UTC) - Expand

Oh god, me too. I can't watch anything with him in it. His energy is manic, it's exhausting to watch. I truly can't stand him. He's one of several popular comic actors who I really want to punch in the face every time I see them.

Haha yeah. Jim Carrey movie is on? Yeah nahhh.

Wow, that's an old picture.

I like his work but goddamn he has gone nutzo lately.
