He also obviously got to write his own lines. He insisted on either that or explicit Robotnik/Stone (true story source go do your own research).
I don’t know about you but that seems a good reason to un-retire.

Bro wanted Improv or Yaoi, can’t blame a man for knowing what he wants.

He did the same thing in Ace Ventura 2.
“i am now a child of light. Your earthly money holds no appeal to me.”
“Twenty thousand dollars.”
“Re-he-he-eally?!”

I don’t like the movies he’s in, but I respect what he’s doing - cinematic shitposting.

I watched The Cable Guy for the first time a few months ago. It was great actually
aeronmelon@lemmy.world 6 days ago
Everybody comes back when you back a big enough truck full of money into their driveway.
At least Carrey is being picky about what he does. I wanted another season of Kidding, but I understand if he’s done playing dark roles.
rob_t_firefly@lemmy.world 4 days ago
I’m still holding out for season two of The Duck Factory.
SatansMaggotyCumFart@lemmy.world 6 days ago
It’s pretty on-brand for Jim Carrey though.
moakley@lemmy.world 5 days ago
Nostalgia usually doesn’t work on me, but bringing back 1990s Jim Carrey to be in the Sonic movies is laser targeted at 10-year-old me and totally works.
ByteOnBikes@slrpnk.net 4 days ago
No kidding.
I get excited every time he’s on screen.
I’m a 40 yo man.
Iheartcheese@lemmy.world 6 days ago
As much as I loved him in the Sonic movies I really hope they don’t bring him back for number four. He’s died twice now but that second one was actually a really good death.

I see where your coming from but robotnik is the BBEG. They always survive
rickyrigatoni@lemm.ee 5 days ago
Sonic without robotnik is always going to be the worst.
hefejefe@lemm.ee 6 days ago
Woh, spoilers!
Not that I was going to watch any of them, but now that I know he only dies twice and not thrice, I’m definitely not watching them.
Zanathos@lemmy.world 5 days ago
He “dies” in all the games too. It’s on brand for the series in my opinion.
Talonflame@lemmy.cafe 5 days ago
Yeah I really can’t see how they could bring him back in a way that seems plausible. Really enjoyed Carrey’s performance though

Actors say this shit all the time, particularly when they know they’re a critical character in the middle of an unfinished successful series. I wish I could just tell my boss I’m retiring then come back a week later just to do the work I was always planning on doing after my boss wrote a check for $10 million.
funkless_eck@sh.itjust.works 4 days ago
tbf being an actor, especially in film, is fucking terrible at times.
I shot a car commercial years ago. Getting up at 4am to get to set for 4.30 to stand in one spot say “¡Vamos!” in heavy makeup repeatedly for 15 hours 3 days in a row becomes torturous.
FluorideMind@lemmy.world 4 days ago
You know what’s really torturous? Getting up at 4 am to drive 1.5 hours to the city to pour concrete for a multi billion dollar company 10 hours, 5 days a week so you can support your family on $24 an hour.

I misread the headline as “this section of jimmy carters Wikipedia article” and was so confused
bizarroland@lemmy.world 6 days ago
I wonder if you could go back to him when he got his start on that TV show with the Wayans brothers and told him that he would enter playing Dr. Robotnik in the Sonic movie what he would think.
blargle@sh.itjust.works 6 days ago
Sonic 1 had just come out for the Genesis and was hugely popular while In Living Color was on TV- and that awful live action Mario Bros movie hadn’t come out yet, so he probably would have been all for the idea.
kurikai@lemmy.world 6 days ago
He seems to enjoy doing sonic. So good for him getting paid to do it
SpruceBringsteen@lemmy.world 5 days ago
Something has got to pay for his paint addiction
GissaMittJobb@lemmy.ml 6 days ago
A damn shame that he’s an anti-vaxxer. A damn shame.
kadup@lemmy.world 5 days ago
Oh tell me your joking, this profoundly ruins he and every single one of his roles forever for me
nelly_man@lemmy.world 5 days ago
I think it started around when he married Jenny McCarthy, who has long been a very vocal anti-vaxxer.
Skullgrid@lemmy.world 5 days ago
he is an anti vaxxer. check the wiki or other comments
dickalan@lemmy.world 6 days ago
Fuck me I probably wouldn’t have bought any of his movies if I knew that
Rai@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 days ago
I think I’ve bought two movies in my life
