Jim Carey is a fictional character made up by jim Carey. Reason why he is so lost is because he is such a good method actor. He forgot who he was and reimagined him self into the God he is today. And yes I say God because In disbelief I believe that he has ascended to the fact that he can be and who ever he wants and can create what he wants.
@@XBOWTOTHEFACE he isnt that great an actor. And certainly not a 'method actor'. He is a charatator actor when a film needs a quirk. He is a great impressionist as he picks up on micro-mannerisms of the target personality. A 'god'? get fucking real.
Yeah, I hope Jim is doing ok...he's experiencing "depersonalization" (kinda like nihilism, but perhaps less dramatic), and it's not a good place to be for long. He DOES have an identity, and it's important to hold onto who you are, otherwise you just...disappear.
Why is disappearing such a bad thing? Why is who you are important? Why are you so attached to this painful, meaningless existence? There's more out there than just this life. Life is the bottleneck of the soul.
I suffer from a dissociative disorder. If this is "nirvana" then I really am fucked LOL Jim's always been an incredibly intelligent, quirky guy. Like most brilliant comedians, he's probably never had a complete sense of self. He idolizes Andy Kaufman, going so far as to "summon" him during the filming of Man on the Moon (which came out well over a decade ago, so it's kind of humorous that people seem to think he's having some kind of crisis NOW when he's always been "out there"). Jim probably chuckles at the armchair psychologists and philosophers who argue over his mental wellbeing online.
Chris Ducat are you mad you don't understand someone else's point of view? Or that they wont conform to what you've been taught is "normal and healthy"? Your not the same person you were yesterday, Jim Carrey understands that we all go through a million different versions of ourselves before we die so trying to say just one is the right one is impossible. I'm not the same as i was yesterday, and I'll be different tomorrow. "I am the ever changing result of every second i have ever lived."--Me.
Dagoalberto Carmona Agreed. He doesn't sound healthy mentally, especially if you watch the whole interview. He's serious about the whole "there's no me" thing.
Tommy Lee Jones was amazing in that movie. To play an eccentric character next to Jim Carey and be able to hold your own is astounding. It really showed how great and actor TLJ is.
I saw the title of this clip cut off so I misread it as *Jim Carrey ... Tommy Lee....* 😂 Everybody just take a minute with THAT! So I was a little disappointed. 😂 But I agree I do love Tommy Lee JONES and he seems an excellent actor and professional. I loved Jim Carrey in "In Living Color" but ever after have found him unfunny, EXHAUSTING, and eventually full of himself. I think Tommy Lee Jones was holding back that day! Still love HIM.
That's the whole "edification" game they play in hollywood. They, generally speaking, talk up their costars and projects they're in. But it's not what they really think. Good example, when they say about someone they worked with, "he's really intense and focused", that's basically code words for he was giant a-hole.
Yeah, I agree. Don't care for how he's gotten all philosophical but he has a lot of respect for others who he works with. Too bad Jones couldn't reciprocate that. And I like both actors.
@@triggeredcat120 Most people that work with Jim don't like him because of how he treats people on set. He talks a big game and complements people yet actions speak louder than words. He is a miserable person to be around.
@@TheTenCentStory Where did you get that? Never heard that once from his most famous comedies. Man on the Moon is the only one I've heard that from, and that was for obvious reasons.
I like Jim Carrey. I think he’s funny and he’s my favorite Hollywood actor. I have the first Dumb and Dumber movie signed by him! I didn’t meet him, but a friend of mine said her cousin used to work for him.
This is great. I think Jim knows that Tommy didn’t mean it to be offensive, but more just honest and yet still respectful. They are two totally different types of actors and personalities. Not everyone is going to find each other pleasing to be around or work with. Just provided they are always respectful and professional, that’s all that matters. I enjoy both actors for totally different reasons.
Always felt bad for Jones in that role. Felt like he had to over-act to not get outshined by Carey's goofiness. And both those characters together in that movie left me just worn out.
I actually think that performance is one of Tommy's worst... Acting like you're crazy and actually being crazy... are two different things.. Because in this movie, it just seemed like Tommy was trying too hard to 'act' crazy. Just like Brad Pitt's performance in the 12 Monkeys.. It was over the top and there's just too much method to his madness and hence not believable as a character.. At least for me it was... That's not to say those two actors aren't good actors... but it takes a special kind of person to pretend being crazy and actually seem like a believable psychopath, like Heath Ledger, or Daniel Day-Lewis. Jim is just the class clown that got paid a shit ton of money to keep being that person and he was very good at it...
I still love Batman Forever. The actors in that film had chemistry that worked when it shouldn't have. I also remember reading a book in school about Jim Carrey where the Riddler's golden cane was heavy.
I can bet both of you are over the age of 60 and find post WW2 Cartoons funny. Jim Carry is hilarious,a great impresionist, and great in every movie. Youre both probably just dull and boring if you cant laugh in any of jim carry movies

@J D Wow. That pretty much leaves no geniuses left. Blazing a path? There aren't many paths left to blaze. You could argue there are no current geniuses simply because someone did something similar previous. Name one actor who could have done Ace Ventura, The Mask or Dumb and Dumber on Carey's scale and success. Name one comedian you like and I'll tell you what a buffoon they are.
@J D ha ha. It's okay to be jealous of others success. I never said I was a fan of Jim Carrey or his movies. I'm also not a fan of Michael Jackson and his raping of boys. But I don't pretend they weren't the best of their genre. You have a superiority complex driven by low self esteem maybe? You're a gun kinda guy probably. Come on be brave.

I honestly think he recognizes his pride and in trying to be humble he throws out philosophical nonsense in an attempt to boost his ego while making him seem humble
I call that "feigned modesty" which drives me up the fucking wall- my grandmother did that her whole life because of how desperate for attention and praise she always was. I'm not getting that vibe from carrey though, honestly i think he just has some self esteem issues
@@lastsonshine How else are others supposed to refer to him if every time they say the pronouns he uses, he cuts it down. Someone really needs to put him in his place. He's upset he basically killed his girlfriend, and is avoiding responsibility by stating he doesn't exist.

No goals left in life. Lot of people he liked have died. He's just fucking off until it's his turn to die. I don't buy his act for a second.

I think Tommy must’ve been annoyed that Jim was always in-character even when they weren’t filming & just waiting around for hours on the set while the crew was getting everything ready
@@LalisasToxicHusband No, he was already angry at Carrey before they started filming. A passion project of TLJ's called "Cobb" had been destroyed a year earlier because it came out at the same time as "Dumb and Dumber". He was angry at Carrey for that.
No, not good for Tommy Lee Jones. There's definitely a fine line between being honest and being an asshole. I understand there are some people out there who believe that there is no line and to be honest you must sometimes come off as an asshole, but the line there is timing. I'd only was it the first time they worked with each other, but presumably this dinner conversation was the first time they met. it was I needed and they hate that Tommy Lee Jones may have had for Jim Carrey must have been something really personal on his end. Now if he said something like that after having worked with the guy then yes, that would be completely honest, but here? Not at all.
@Paul WT You're basing your response based off Jim Carrey in this clip. filming for Batman Forever started in September of 1994. 2 out of the three biggest films of Jim Carrey's career had come out earlier that year with Ace Ventura, the mask. Dumb and Dumber didn't come out until December. Without the internet that we have now at most Tommy Lee Jones would have had to base his opinion on Jim Carrey would be based off those two movies, and if Tommy Lee Jones ever watched any of his work on In Living Color. Even in interviews with Jim Carrey back in '94 was by far a different person than what we have now.
Weird how he hated Jim Carrey but he and will smith always got along pretty well it seems not comparing the two but will is definitely goofy like Jim is to an extent
@@keenenbenton9843 jim and will are completely different personalities. Especially off camera edit: also a problem with Jim is his method acting often continue after the camera stopped rolling. To deal with him acting like the Riddler all the time must've been annoying as fuck.
@@ianmillerdevilsfan1223 true it’s a classic film but I’ll never forgive the academy for giving him an Oscar over Leo for Gilbert grape a much greater performance
This really sounds like Jim being Jim. Often times when comedians talk amongst themselves that’s when they are most like themselves than any other times. Just real
It's hard to believe this is the same man in The Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. Jim deserved at least an Oscar nomination for his performance. Underrated actor for sure.
my guess is, tommy lee jones had been in the business 30-40 years at that point. this was only jim carrey's 3'rd or 4th movie, and was getting 3 times the amount of money tommy lee jones was getting. and tommy lee jones probably saw ace ventura and goes "this is the guy who's making 2 million dollars more than me?? a guy who talks out of his ass??"
i re watched Ace ventura the other day... WOW i cringed a lot to be honest. of course back then it was fresh and new, but nowadays is like baby sitting some random brat.
As someone with ADHD, I am well acquainted with the experience of being surprised to find that someone hates me for acting silly, having fun, and generally hamming it up
JUST read in another comment that Jim Carrey says he has ADHD as well, looked it up to confirm. I love you, Jim. I loved your movies as a kid. I had the same problems you describe in public school, until I started being homeschooled by a mom who also has ADHD. She used a modified Montessori model and let me direct my own learning beyond the basics, stim all the time (e.g., doodle or fidget during any lesson), and take breaks as needed. You have probably found as an adult that you can find communities and environments that are accessible to people with ADHD, like comedy and acting and art and other creative fields. I am really into neurodivergence acceptance and pride. It makes me so happy to see celebrities who are ND and open about it. I want a world where we can all be out and proud.

"there is no me"--- under different circumstances that might have made him sound like a philosopher a thousand years ahead of his time. today it just made him sound like an arrogant burnout.
Yeah, me NEITHER! Some ppl hate his politics. I just got tired of him over the years. I know he had a breakdown a while back and he used to be homeless as a kid when working after school as a janitor when living with his family and supposedly he cares a lot about one of his kids or step kids (I forget), but I just feel like he tries too hard to be entertaining all the time.
@@Protectobot his politics are just ridiculous. we need to be socialist. got me some nike's! to normal people he's just another Hollywood asshole, preaching nonsense.

"I just guessed" I could not tell if he was being funny or a dick to the guy behind him, like "yeah I know shithead", also an example of norm being smarter than you think
What a walking, talking contradiction. You won't find a bigger Jim Carrey fan than I, but Jim is off of his rocker. The entire time Jim is referring to himself as "Me" and "I" when talking about the past. But when Norm asks him about something in the past, refers to Jim as "you," Jim pretentiously tells him that "no, because there was no me," then goes on to finish the story, referring to himself as "I" and "me." :-|
According to Jim Carrey, he's not Jim Carrey, so I can still be the biggest Jim Carrey fan and criticize the dog crap out of whoever this guy is...See what I did there?But since you're trolling anyway, I'll say this: I spent my childhood watching Jim Carrey, traipsing around like the Pet Detective, and using my hands to talk from my anus. Though I didn't collect Jim Carrey action figures and sleep on Pet Detective comforters, I was a HUGE fan of his work. I'd go to the theater to see any movie he starred in; period. The point of the statement was to illustrate how serious I am when I say that I think he's babbling nonsense to people. Not only that, but he's being hypocritical while doing it; correcting others while doing exactly what they did. Simple as that.
Joel Schumaker, the director of Batman Forever, said pretty much exactly what Norm MacDonald guessed, he said that Tommy Lee Jones didn't like playing second fiddle and was a bit prima donna-ish when shooting that movie, but that Jim Carrey was a "gentleman".

May you forever enjoy your success and the droll life it brings to you. May you be as bored as Jim Carry is with his own success in life.
I really respect how much slack Jim cut Tommy in this, even when Norm tries to make a joke (which was fair enough) Jim pulls it back to how it's not Tommy's typical movie

The look in Jim Carrey's eyes as he tells this story says to me it totally happened, like he literally reliving that moment.
Knowing TLJ, I’d bet my entire life savings on it.
He's not being mean about TLJ when he's telling the story. You can see genuine hurt in Jim's eyes. He was very cut by Tommy.
Being that JC whole carreer is built on picking up on others mannerisms.....i bet TLJ aura really imprinted on JC
Jim Carey is a fictional character made up by jim Carey. Reason why he is so lost is because he is such a good method actor. He forgot who he was and reimagined him self into the God he is today. And yes I say God because In disbelief I believe that he has ascended to the fact that he can be and who ever he wants and can create what he wants.
@@XBOWTOTHEFACE he isnt that great an actor. And certainly not a 'method actor'. He is a charatator actor when a film needs a quirk. He is a great impressionist as he picks up on micro-mannerisms of the target personality.
A 'god'? get fucking real.
Norm skates around Jim's psycho-babble like tonya harding. Masterful.
Yeah, I hope Jim is doing ok...he's experiencing "depersonalization" (kinda like nihilism, but perhaps less dramatic), and it's not a good place to be for long. He DOES have an identity, and it's important to hold onto who you are, otherwise you just...disappear.
Why is disappearing such a bad thing? Why is who you are important? Why are you so attached to this painful, meaningless existence? There's more out there than just this life. Life is the bottleneck of the soul.
I suffer from a dissociative disorder. If this is "nirvana" then I really am fucked LOL
Jim's always been an incredibly intelligent, quirky guy. Like most brilliant comedians, he's probably never had a complete sense of self. He idolizes Andy Kaufman, going so far as to "summon" him during the filming of Man on the Moon (which came out well over a decade ago, so it's kind of humorous that people seem to think he's having some kind of crisis NOW when he's always been "out there"). Jim probably chuckles at the armchair psychologists and philosophers who argue over his mental wellbeing online.
Damn. Thanks for that.
Chris Ducat are you mad you don't understand someone else's point of view? Or that they wont conform to what you've been taught is "normal and healthy"? Your not the same person you were yesterday, Jim Carrey understands that we all go through a million different versions of ourselves before we die so trying to say just one is the right one is impossible. I'm not the same as i was yesterday, and I'll be different tomorrow. "I am the ever changing result of every second i have ever lived."--Me.
Norm's sincere laugh (i.e. 1:18) is one of the greatest things ever.
Can't believe Norm McDonald is no longer with us. :( RIP Norm
"There is no me." Carrey sounds like that 18 year old kid who just got out of a philosophy intro course.
Yeah. Because you know something that he doesn't.
He’s forcing an actually beautiful perspective into an edgy leather jacket knock off.
I think he's making fun of self-entitlement. Maybe he is just crazy. Either way is entertaining and weird.
Dagoalberto Carmona Agreed. He doesn't sound healthy mentally, especially if you watch the whole interview. He's serious about the whole "there's no me" thing.

Tommy Lee Jones was amazing in that movie. To play an eccentric character next to Jim Carey and be able to hold your own is astounding. It really showed how great and actor TLJ is.
I saw the title of this clip cut off so I misread it as *Jim Carrey ... Tommy Lee....* 😂 Everybody just take a minute with THAT! So I was a little disappointed. 😂
But I agree I do love Tommy Lee JONES and he seems an excellent actor and professional.
I loved Jim Carrey in "In Living Color" but ever after have found him unfunny, EXHAUSTING, and eventually full of himself.

I like how Jim still tried to defend Tommy.
Of course, because he knows he was right.
Do not let another's opinion of you affect your opinion of them.
inbetween telling the world he was a bit of a prick?
That's the whole "edification" game they play in hollywood. They, generally speaking, talk up their costars and projects they're in. But it's not what they really think. Good example, when they say about someone they worked with, "he's really intense and focused", that's basically code words for he was giant a-hole.
Yeah, after throwing TLJ under the bus by telling the story in the first place.
It actually says a lot that Jim says, "Phenomenal actor though, amazing, I still love him."
Yeah, I agree. Don't care for how he's gotten all philosophical but he has a lot of respect for others who he works with. Too bad Jones couldn't reciprocate that. And I like both actors.
@@triggeredcat120 Most people that work with Jim don't like him because of how he treats people on set. He talks a big game and complements people yet actions speak louder than words. He is a miserable person to be around.

I'm not a REAL fan of Carrey ... I tolerate him... but, really never saw the man as FUNNY... Jones, now thats an actor.
I used to as a kid but now I'm like Tommy where I can't stand his hyper crazy silliness
I like Jim Carrey. I think he’s funny and he’s my favorite Hollywood actor. I have the first Dumb and Dumber movie signed by him! I didn’t meet him, but a friend of mine said her cousin used to work for him.
People separate the art from the person. The art is amazing, the person is shit.
I did until I saw one too many contrived interviews of him
This is great. I think Jim knows that Tommy didn’t mean it to be offensive, but more just honest and yet still respectful. They are two totally different types of actors and personalities. Not everyone is going to find each other pleasing to be around or work with. Just provided they are always respectful and professional, that’s all that matters. I enjoy both actors for totally different reasons.
He cashed the cheque
You’re right they are two totally different actors. TLJ plays the same character in every movie, and Jim can actually act.
It’s so hard to believe that Norm is gone… 😢😢😢
Jim Carrey is genuinely spine chilling at times
“I cannot sanction your buffoonery” is made a lot funnier when you see how batshit crazy Jones acts in that movie
Always felt bad for Jones in that role. Felt like he had to over-act to not get outshined by Carey's goofiness. And both those characters together in that movie left me just worn out.
I actually think that performance is one of Tommy's worst... Acting like you're crazy and actually being crazy... are two different things.. Because in this movie, it just seemed like Tommy was trying too hard to 'act' crazy. Just like Brad Pitt's performance in the 12 Monkeys.. It was over the top and there's just too much method to his madness and hence not believable as a character.. At least for me it was... That's not to say those two actors aren't good actors... but it takes a special kind of person to pretend being crazy and actually seem like a believable psychopath, like Heath Ledger, or Daniel Day-Lewis. Jim is just the class clown that got paid a shit ton of money to keep being that person and he was very good at it...
It's funny but the first time I heard about this, the quote was, "I can no longer sanction your buffoonery."

I still love Batman Forever. The actors in that film had chemistry that worked when it shouldn't have. I also remember reading a book in school about Jim Carrey where the Riddler's golden cane was heavy.
“I can’t sanction your buffoonery” is the best line I’ve heard in a long time. Gotta work that into my day.
Such a shame that so many people sanctioned Jim Carrey's buffoonery. He never should have had a career. He's a cynical face-puller.

No, not good for Tommy Lee Jones. There's definitely a fine line between being honest and being an asshole. I understand there are some people out there who believe that there is no line and to be honest you must sometimes come off as an asshole, but the line there is timing. I'd only was it the first time they worked with each other, but presumably this dinner conversation was the first time they met. it was I needed and they hate that Tommy Lee Jones may have had for Jim Carrey must have been something really personal on his end. Now if he said something like that after having worked with the guy then yes, that would be completely honest, but here? Not at all.
DaleRobby rear well I admire it more than people who are phony.
@Paul WT You're basing your response based off Jim Carrey in this clip. filming for Batman Forever started in September of 1994. 2 out of the three biggest films of Jim Carrey's career had come out earlier that year with Ace Ventura, the mask. Dumb and Dumber didn't come out until December. Without the internet that we have now at most Tommy Lee Jones would have had to base his opinion on Jim Carrey would be based off those two movies, and if Tommy Lee Jones ever watched any of his work on In Living Color. Even in interviews with Jim Carrey back in '94 was by far a different person than what we have now.

I love you, Jim. I loved your movies as a kid.
I had the same problems you describe in public school, until I started being homeschooled by a mom who also has ADHD. She used a modified Montessori model and let me direct my own learning beyond the basics, stim all the time (e.g., doodle or fidget during any lesson), and take breaks as needed.
You have probably found as an adult that you can find communities and environments that are accessible to people with ADHD, like comedy and acting and art and other creative fields.

"What a walking, talking contradiction. You won't find a bigger Jim Carrey fan than I, but Jim is off of his rocker." - ah, the irony.
@Sebastian Not sure that's ironic, you can be a fan of someone and think they're a bit crazy or have personality flaws
Not any fan. Greatest fan. "You won't find a bigger Jim Carrey fan than I"
According to Jim Carrey, he's not Jim Carrey, so I can still be the biggest Jim Carrey fan and criticize the dog crap out of whoever this guy is...See what I did there?But since you're trolling anyway, I'll say this: I spent my childhood watching Jim Carrey, traipsing around like the Pet Detective, and using my hands to talk from my anus. Though I didn't collect Jim Carrey action figures and sleep on Pet Detective comforters, I was a HUGE fan of his work. I'd go to the theater to see any movie he starred in; period. The point of the statement was to illustrate how serious I am when I say that I think he's babbling nonsense to people. Not only that, but he's being hypocritical while doing it; correcting others while doing exactly what they did. Simple as that.
Sebastian your replies had me laughing. Nicely done
Imagine Norm interviewing Tommy Lee Jones. I would pay hard earned cash to see that
Joel Schumaker, the director of Batman Forever, said pretty much exactly what Norm MacDonald guessed, he said that Tommy Lee Jones didn't like playing second fiddle and was a bit prima donna-ish when shooting that movie, but that Jim Carrey was a "gentleman".
