Great news! They should go full steam ahead with production, just with Steve Martin and Dave Chappelle in the starring roles. What could go wrong? Nothing.
 
I want more serious/semi-serious roles from Carrey. Eternal Sunshine, MotM, Truman Show etc...
 
More than likely this was a monetary issue.

This.

I imagine that Carrey was expecting WB/New Line to give this project the sort of attention a Batman or Harry Potter would have gotten seeing as the original was arguably the most 'beloved' Carrey film.

But realistically this was never going to be some major event movie given how much Carrey's stock has fallen recently.
 
Tell me about. I can just see the screwball comedy taking a backseat to mawkish sentimentality in the closing act. Basically, the crap part of Liar Liar taking centre stage.
Urghh. *shudders*

I see a two year old with a Ventura wig, wearing mini-Ventura clothes, and having a poorly CGI'd mouth saying 'Alllrighty then' using Jim Carrey's voice put through a processor. It'd probably be the kid's first word, like the bit in Meet the Fockers when the kid says 'asshole.'
 
I always thought the movie was based on the cartoon, I loved it back then but never gave the movie much love

Please, make it stop!
 
I miss the good old Jim Carrey movies where he acts like a crazy idiot. It's been a while since he made such a movie. I think the last one i saw was Yes Man, but even that one wasn't as good as Bruce Almighty or Liar Liar.

Edit : I just checked Bruce Almighty wiki, and it mention that in january 2012, a REAL sequel of Bruce Almighty was announced with Jim Carrey. Good, it will be more interesting than the "sequel" we already got.
 
Why are people upset at Jim leaving the project? Going from his comment about the title, it sounds like things didn't go his way, which makes sense since it's a FUCKING DUMB & DUMBER sequel.

It's gonna be Jim's and Jeff's project all the way.
 
If Jim was unhappy with the project, he made the right call. Will avoid like the plague (or like the prequel) now if it's still greenlit.
