    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.

      Oh tell me your joking, this profoundly ruins he and every single one of his roles forever for me

          Maybe it’s about from when he dated Jenny McCarthy (another anti vaxxer but she’s down into this rabbit hole of misinformation a lot deeper including herself being prominent in spreading misinformation), I didn’t know til recently Jim Carrey was an anti vaxxer, there’s some other actors/actress (including Robert De Niro) I never expected to be one, what a shame. (I rarely check out news about celebreties so that might be why)

          A list of some from BuzzFeed with sources included in their article, I tried archiving with archive.is and archive.ph but for some reason lately they just stay on infinitely “Loading” at least for me

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

    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.

    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 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.

      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.
