The casting director (John Papsidera) was the savior of this movie, truly. There's a reason that he's one of Christopher Nolan's go-to casting directors in modern times. He also cast the new Fallout series.
@@hansjuker8296 It's too bad no one had enough faith in the actors to want to write a good script for them. It could've been surprisingly funny with these two.
i actually liked this movie. i thought these two did a damn good job. "why are you so smart? well i sleep in a school and all the chalk dust writes all the answers on my brain" lol
Look man, I rented this for $1, expected nothing from it and ended up loving it. I rented it enough that I finally bought it. Still love it to this day. Quote it often.
This was a flick I enjoyed as a kid... The actors made it their own... Its full of screwball, lowbrow goofs. Of course its dumb! But much like a lot of stupid 2000s comedies its funny because of that. I still quote this movie.
agreed. This prequel is dumb but fine. Had some hilarious moments, and seeing them portrayed by younger actors in high school is hilarious. Instead of a road trip movie, we got an assemble the team kind of movie. It made me legitimately mad that the sequel retconned parts of the prequel, almost as a way to say it doesn't exist. But I know a ton of people who like the prequel, and basically none that like the sequel. It joins the list of 10+ unwanted, unneeded, TERRIBLE sequels that should have never happened and it ticks me off they exist. Kinda like zoolander 2, anchorman 2, bad santa 2, every Kevin Smith movie after Jay and Silent Bob...basically, all that cash grab trash. It's ATROCIOUS. The prequel has charm. They have good sequences and good shot compositions. And those Bob saget scenes are amazing. That sequel on the other hand, Idk anyone who's seen it before that would sit down and watch it again.
Truthfully, Dumb and Dumber To written by the Farrelly brothers wasn't any better. Dumb and Dumber got it right but there was really no way to recreate that magic.
true that when it comes to these movies (lightning in a bottle), you realise even more how good they are when they remake it, reboot it, continue it or make a prequel, a bad one. some exceptions are Terminator and Terminator 2, or Alien and Aliens.
@@LouisZephyr Terminator and Alien sequels took the original idea and expanded on it, and gave them a new perspective. A lot of sequels just try to do the exact same thing again.
You know, in all seriousness. Eric Christian Olsen really did a solid job with his portrayal of Lloyd. I don't think the movie was good by any means, but he honesty gave a pretty damn good effort trying to match Jim Carrey's energy for that character.
Even without the pumpkin pie haircut and chipped tooth, his facial structure and mannerisms were on point. A lot of studio executives make really bad decisions.
Jim Carry is in fact hot, but his acting (and yes, some of his BS "philosophy" off screen, but mostly the goofball stuff) makes people not really see it.
@@xBINARYGODx Jim Carrey has said some weird shit but I generally cut him slack because I think he's just an eccentric dude who has dealt with serious mental health issues. I don't think he's a bad guy, just an oddball.
I knew there were a few sequels to Jim Carrey movies without Jim Carrey (Son of the Mask, Evan Almighty), but I had no idea there was a PREQUEL! I’d literally never heard of this film before today!
I loved this movie honestly. It wasn't the original but it felt different enough that I didn't really compare the two that much. Plus I was the perfect age to laugh at all of it. The Bob Sagget stuff used to kill me and my favorite quote is when he's eating lunch in the bathroom stall and Harry says "you eat lunch in the bathroom?" And Loyd replies "ya, you know, out with the old, in with the new". So stupid 😂
"They tried to make a sequel. They did, they tried. I felt sorry for those guys." - the "When Harry met Lloyd" prequel actors, after watching "Dumb and Dumber To" (probably)
@@MediaPastimesdecent is a big stretch, but passable I guess, something you see on a plane and don’t enjoy, but don’t turn off. It’s no fault of the actors though, just a bad script for a movie that shouldn’t have been made.
In this movie his name was spelled "Lewis" instead of "Louis". I'm just going to take a wild guess and say that the director couldn't come up with a name for his character, so he used Even Stevens as... "inspiration".
Yea that wasn't a good idea cuz they weren't actually brain deficient they were just grown goofballs n airheads and the 94 movie fit into that 80's,90's era movie comedy concept where the main characters were capable living adults that navigated through life doing alot of unintentionally foolish funny shit
Bob Saget freaking out over "shit" was the hardest I laughed during the whole movie. At the time, I was still only familiar with his work on "Full House" and "America's Funniest Home Videos", and it was the first time I ever heard him curse. Then I discovered his stand up comedy, and OHHHHH boy!
I remember shaving my pubes off as a young man, and my bag got infected or something because the itchiness was so horrendous I had to spend a whole weekend scratching the area with an old toothbrush. I'd rather go through that for a month than watch this prequel again
I had a section where I highlighted my favorite IMDB reviews of the movie (but ended up cutting it). There was one review where the person wished that everyone involved with the making of this movie would suffer from "horrible cases of diarrhea, herpes, and possibly gout." This comment is in the same vein as that review and I appreciate you for that.
The biggest problem for me with this prequel was the Robert Downey, Jr. effect. In the original, Lloyd and Harry were dumb, no one could deny that, but they were FUNCTIONAL stupid. They said and did dumb things, but I never questioned that they had reached middle age and were independent. They had jobs (which they'd lose due to their stupidity) but I believed the set up. We've all met dumb people, and Lloyd and Harry seemed pretty true to some dumb people we'd encounter in the wild (we've all been in a Walmart). In Dumb and Dumberer, they made the pair so dumb I genuinely wondered how they had made it to high school age. They went TOO dumb, to the point I couldn't imagine either character functioning in society independently. They, to bring my point home, I'll quote the eternal RDJ: "went full retard. Never go full retard."
I remember being a kid and noticing that the movie had a modern $5 bill in it at one point (even though it’s supposed to be the ‘80s). I enjoyed the movie, but it was next to impossible to get over that level of laziness.
@@MediaPastimes so what? A montage doesn't have to make sense. It inherently doesn't. I think I remember Jimmy Eat World in there too. That's FOR YOU, the AUDIENCE. Not for the characters. It's not diegetic sound, so it's really weird for you to care about that.
I actually perfer this prequel over the sequel. The prequel made sense for the year it came out it was light hearted slapstick comedy which most of these types of movies were
I saw this in the theaters with my cousin and brother. We were the only ones in there. For some reason we looked up and there were spitballs all over the ceiling above us. So during the movie we started doing it top. That ceiling was absolutely covered.
$20 for a newly released movie on VHS was cheap. Most movies retailed at about $35-40 when they first released on VHS (if they were newer movies that hadn't hit home video yet). But DVDs are a whole different thing. Collectors are into blu-rays and 4K ultra HD blu-rays, which retail for $25-40 new. DVDs are still the most bought physical media format, but they look like garbage compared to blu-ray or UHD.
@@MediaPastimes Idk what's up w people wanting to be HIFI dipshits about movies, buying 4k when your eyes can't even see it and whatnot...DVD is fine. Shoot, unless it's going on the bigscreen, 360p is fine on a monitor.
Eric Christian Olsen plays in a little seen comedy called “Fired Up” which to me is one of the best and most quotable comedies ever! Right up there with another little talked about one called “Take Me Home Tonight”
Take me home tonight is a great movie but I cringe at the car ride scene when Topher grace and the girl are talking and she looks at him at the right time and he's ove complimenting her of this skill. I always felt that should be cut.
saw this in the theater with my mom & sister. I have a lot of nostalgia for it & nothing but love for it because of that. the spirit & heart of this movie is so much more closer to the original than the actual sequel.
Bob Saget made this film. It stinks cause there's some good talent from Olsen to Elden Henson to Eugene Levy. A victim of the late 90's comedy phase of trying to amp American Pie.
Elden Henson is an actor that I always look forward to seeing onscreen, but he was severely underutilized in this. Been a fan since Mighty Ducks 1, before he even became a bash brother 👊
Bob Odenkirk and David Cross apparently "disowned" it, because they disagreed with a lot of the creative choices that Troy Miller had for it in post-production. But its definitely worth a watch.
I'm one of the few who really enjoy this movie. "Hold my Sack" and "Nice car Frenchy" always get me. It's one of my favorites on my comedy scale. Nacho Libre and Kung Pow are One and Two, and this is my Three followed by Tucker and Dale vs Evil. 🤘🤠
I enjoyed a few moments in the movie mostly Bob Saget screaming about the bathroom may he rest in piece and anytime their ruining the gas station guys life lol. Also I found out awhile back that the punk rock bully kid with the half assed Mohawk is also foggy Nelson from the daredevil show.
Each their own. The casting of Lloyd & Harry was brilliant and even though it wasn't AS hilarious as the original. At least we got a decent laugh or two out of it. I want a 4th and final installment though. You can even bring back Mary Samsonite.
In college I had an assignment to write the basis for a sequel to THINGS FALL APART, and I never read the book but I named it THINGS FALL APARTER and loosely based it off dumb and dumberer... I got a C. Lol
This movie is kind of an old favorite in my family. We watched it and the original alot when I was little and we still make references to the doll hair bit fairly often
Great video! Forgot that this movie existed. I remember that I watched it as a kid and quite enjoyed it, especially the way the actors did their best impressions of Jim Carrey and Jeff Daniels. Looking back at it now, I guess their performances are the only thing that actually worked, and all the other stuff there I enjoyed as a kid was exactly that - stupid childish humor
I think the idea is that Harry rarely uses his brain, so he goes along with everything Lloyd says, because Lloyd says everything with confidence. I don't think that dynamic changed very much for the Dumb and Dumberer movie.
Jim doesn't seem all that sorry for them. His statement at the end comes off more like a "ha ha you tried to make another one without me and it failed". Tongue and cheek but still kinda mean. They did some great impressions.
I took it as the studio put them into a position where they couldn’t win. People were very vocal about how bad the prequel was, and they blamed it on the actors. The writing was bad, they did a good job.
This movie is from a time before we knew less is more. Then we had a horrendous time of spoofs and college comedies that beat that lesson into everyones head. Then we started to get super bad and other gems but then hollywood forgot the less is more lesson
The Top 5 ways this film would actually be good: • If it were released in 1984 under the title "Dumb and Dumber" • If it were made by John Hughes • If it were longer and better-written • If it stars a young Jim Carrey and a young Jeff Daniels • If the original 1994 film were the hit-sequel under the title "Dumb and Dumberer"
I had no idea that matt and trey originally was supposed to do dumb and dumberer. I would be interested to see what they would have done but it probably would have been a bit too shoddy. They didn’t have a good track record for making good quality stuff. I mean South Park isn’t very high quality visually-wise.
The thing that made dumb and dumber special was that the main characters where dumb and rest of the world was “regular/ some what normal” the problem with the 2 films that fallowed was they made made the whole world wacky. I grade comedies movies from 1-10. The part that worked in the prequel was when herry meet Jessicas parents, if the whole movie would have had same tone it might had a solid movie. For the sequel just judging by the trailer it felt like Jim and Jeff amped the character to a 10 and kept it there. Where as in the first one I feel they coasted at a 6 and do things to bring it to a 9. Perfect balance.
I was surprised to learn that the actor that plays Jim Carrey’s role is the brother of the Olsen twins this movie was pretty good. I saw it when I was like 12 years old so it definitely is a childhood movie for me.
If you ask me and nobody did. it actually makes a lot of sense for Harry to start off as the dumber one but then he never gets smart enough to notice that he's actually more intelligent than his best friend / leader
My channel was de-monetized a few months back and I thought the Torque video had something to do with it, so I deleted it. I just have to re-work it a bit, I'll be releasing a longer version.

Bob Saget's role in this made way for the most legendary scene of the whole movie.
In my humble opinion, that's what saved it.
His dry sarcastic humor was amazing in this. R.I.P. Legend.
HE SHHHHT EVERYWHEEERRRREEEEE
I never knew where that scene was from until this video 😂
I almost didn't make it to adulthood because that scene almost killed me. That and the ultra short bus

Still better than Dumb and Dumber To.

Literally couldn't finish Dumb and Dumber To
Glad I never watched it
Ehh...thats arguable. To me, theyre on the same level
They made a second? Lol

Each their own. The casting of Lloyd & Harry was brilliant and even though it wasn't AS hilarious as the original. At least we got a decent laugh or two out of it. I want a 4th and final installment though. You can even bring back Mary Samsonite.
In college I had an assignment to write the basis for a sequel to THINGS FALL APART, and I never read the book but I named it THINGS FALL APARTER and loosely based it off dumb and dumberer... I got a C. Lol
I actually liked this movie, it's stupid, but it's funny. And there's some great cameo and bit parts, Bob Saget is hilarious.
This movie is kind of an old favorite in my family. We watched it and the original alot when I was little and we still make references to the doll hair bit fairly often
I have good memories of this movie. I watched it with my brother about 200 times as a kid and we laughed our asses off every time.
Ok wow. For years I thought I just imagined this 😝
I wish Matt and Trey wrote this movie, I’d probably actually remember it.
Great video! Forgot that this movie existed.
I remember that I watched it as a kid and quite enjoyed it, especially the way the actors did their best impressions of Jim Carrey and Jeff Daniels. Looking back at it now, I guess their performances are the only thing that actually worked, and all the other stuff there I enjoyed as a kid was exactly that - stupid childish humor
The first movie is stupid childish humor too, what’s your point?
New viewer. Subbed for the Run Ronnie Run plug.
"There's shit everywhere! There's shit all over my bathroom! There's shit on the walls! There's shit everywhere!"
8:23 that’s just Brian Poshen playing himself.
I think the idea is that Harry rarely uses his brain, so he goes along with everything Lloyd says, because Lloyd says everything with confidence. I don't think that dynamic changed very much for the Dumb and Dumberer movie.
Your telling me that Harry and Lloyd wear the same type of clothes, and have the same type of haircut
Jim doesn't seem all that sorry for them. His statement at the end comes off more like a "ha ha you tried to make another one without me and it failed". Tongue and cheek but still kinda mean. They did some great impressions.
I took it as the studio put them into a position where they couldn’t win. People were very vocal about how bad the prequel was, and they blamed it on the actors. The writing was bad, they did a good job.
Great video
This movie is from a time before we knew less is more. Then we had a horrendous time of spoofs and college comedies that beat that lesson into everyones head. Then we started to get super bad and other gems but then hollywood forgot the less is more lesson
I still say dollhairs, pay the man, theres shit everywhere, cool kids sit in the back, i loved this movie
The Top 5 ways this film would actually be good:
• If it were released in 1984 under the title "Dumb and Dumber"
• If it were made by John Hughes
• If it were longer and better-written
• If it stars a young Jim Carrey and a young Jeff Daniels
• If the original 1994 film were the hit-sequel under the title "Dumb and Dumberer"
Way better then the actual sequel to dumb and dumber
great vid, love an honest take on this flick lol. it makes me laugh
I remember loving this movie when I watched it growing up.
It was Dumb of them to make a sequel and even Dumber for the actors to agree to it.
I had no idea that matt and trey originally was supposed to do dumb and dumberer. I would be interested to see what they would have done but it probably would have been a bit too shoddy. They didn’t have a good track record for making good quality stuff. I mean South Park isn’t very high quality visually-wise.
I think this was actually better then the real sequel they ended up doing 😂😂😂😂
The thing that made dumb and dumber special was that the main characters where dumb and rest of the world was “regular/ some what normal” the problem with the 2 films that fallowed was they made made the whole world wacky. I grade comedies movies from 1-10. The part that worked in the prequel was when herry meet Jessicas parents, if the whole movie would have had same tone it might had a solid movie. For the sequel just judging by the trailer it felt like Jim and Jeff amped the character to a 10 and kept it there. Where as in the first one I feel they coasted at a 6 and do things to bring it to a 9. Perfect balance.
I was surprised to learn that the actor that plays Jim Carrey’s role is the brother of the Olsen twins this movie was pretty good. I saw it when I was like 12 years old so it definitely is a childhood movie for me.
He's not related to them, their sister plays Wanda in the MCU though.
This was so funny! I loved it!
If you ask me and nobody did. it actually makes a lot of sense for Harry to start off as the dumber one but then he never gets smart enough to notice that he's actually more intelligent than his best friend / leader
It has some really funny moments and some insanely funny quotes, but it was wildly uneven.
I know this has nothing to do with the video, but can I just ask, what happened to your "Torque" video?
My channel was de-monetized a few months back and I thought the Torque video had something to do with it, so I deleted it. I just have to re-work it a bit, I'll be releasing a longer version.
Wasnt a great movie, but the chocolate bar scene was one of the funniest scenes of all time. RIP Bob Saget.
I still have this on VHS. ,
Didn't even know this movie was a thing.
Having major mandela effect because I couldve sworn this movie was always a Direct to Video cashg grab, I have zero memory of it runnng in theaters.
It’s better than Dumb and Dumber Too. But that’s not saying much.
The bathroom scene was the best moment
