I loved this movie when it came out, and I was 15. I've come to not find it nearly as funny now when I'm 45, especially when I saw the trailer for Dumb And Dumber 2 and wasn't finding myself laughing at those clips. And the one clip I found hilarious was the dream sequence where the waiter had his stones used as a training bag.

Jim Carrey had this, Ace Ventura and The Mask in the same year. Most people are lucky to have one iconic movie in a decade. He had three in one year.

Another Fun Fact: According to the Farrelly brothers, Jeff Daniels wasn't wanted for the film, but Jim Carrey wanted him in it. In order to ensure a no from him, they offered Daniels $50,000 for the role. He accepted without any hesitation nor did he attempt to negotiate, despite insistence from his agent the film would "kill his career." By 1994, the film was Daniels' most successful.

Started laughing, and just walked away. Then some years later when Eastwood cast him in a movie he was directing he told Daniels he offered him the part because 'If you can do 2 Days in the Valley and you can do Dumb & Dumber, you can do this.' I love the idea that despite Eastwood on the outside for the past 30 years looks like he's a grumpy old grandpa who has seen it all. Lived during a much tougher era and doesn't seem like the kind of guy who in a million years would watch a movie called Dumb and Dumber and. Not only can appreciate it, but understood exactly why Daniels did Dumb and Dumber to begin with. Daniels wanted to avoid getting type cast and more importantly he wanted to have a career as an actor rather than having to do the work of being a movie star. To use his word it was his way to become a "hired-gun" genre be damned so long as the script is good. And he didn't mention him by name but from an young age he wanted to avoid ending up in a situation like Liam Neeson who after Taken which was great. Got boxed in and had to do more and more action movies each one worse than the next. And in a lot of cases those type of actors having to go under the knife to not look your age and be on all kinds of "medication" to keep on doing it.

I think calling it "dumb" is misunderstanding it. I think most of the humor is very smartly done. A lot of the biggest comedians consider it their favorite movie.

Crowning achievement is somehow still an understatement. That laxative scene is still tear-inducing funny! I absolutely cracked up just from this review of that scene alone.

The joke that kills me for some reason is when Harry is freezing by the lake and he says he can’t feel his fingers anymore and Loyd confesses he has a second pair of gloves on and his hands are all sweaty and then Harry goes and strangle him to which Loyd lets out this weird holler and you think it’s because he’s shocked he’s been strangled but he just says “Harry!…. Your hands are freezing”

Harland Williams' "dolphin having a stroke" reaction to drinking the beer was actually improvised by him right before shooting. He mentioned it recently on a podcast (maybe his own podcast? I forget). He actually said it *was* a sort of "dolphin" noise that he had done as a random joke earlier on set, and I think one of the Farrellys randomly suggested he do something like that for the scene - they kinda just told him to do whatever, even though this was like his very first movie - I think they happened to notice him doing stand-up shortly before the movie shoot and immediately liked him. He talked about how he basically started getting steady work as soon as he got to Hollywood - people just really loved his stand-up immediately.

We've got no food. We've got no jobs. Our pets heads are FALLING OFF!!!

11:16 that's just the actress' natural reaction after reading the end of the script for 'Blank Check' realizing she has to kiss a child.

Review Zoolander 2. It's a terrible sequel that shouldn't have been made. There was no point for one.

@MrFoolD I kind of agree with that I was thinking about that not too long ago. Dumb and dumber too is so bad the prequel is structurally a better film

​@HardlyWorkin-kh5uh reviews said that it has its moments. And that is why I never saw it.

What was always amazing to me is Daniel’s had 2 big hits that year being this and Speed. 2 completely opposite characters and he played them both perfectly

Fun fact: Jeff Daniels was offered only $50,000 to appear in the film because the executives were trying to get him to turn down the role. Jim Carrey had asked for him personally so they were trying to get away without having him in the film, but to their dismay he accepted immediately and so they were stuck with him in the role. Turns out Carrey was right and Jeff was perfect for the role.

10:45 Clearly he's referencing Garfield: A Tail of Two Kitties. He's even wearing an orange suit.

"Wanna hear the most annoying sound in the world?" *Opens mouth* Hello! I'm the Nostalgia Critic! I remember it so you don't have to!

I still quote this movie, i can recite the entire thing from memory. My favorite scene is when Lloyd loses his wallet to the old lady, goes home defeated and shouting "Our pet's HEADS ARE FALLING OFF!" gets me everytime. Honorable mention goes to the Extra Gloves scene, "...extra gloves? You've had this pair of extra gloves this whole time?" "...yeah! We're in the Rockies!"

I was just binge watching old nostalgia critic videos lol

I would’ve loved an edit where he goes, “You wanna hear the most annoying sound in the world?” And then it plays “A BAT CREDIT CAAAAAAARRRRDD!!!” Or really any Nostalgia Critic scream.

About Jim Carrey not shooting the final scene. The version I heard is not getting on the bus was the way the Farely Brothers wanted it, but the studio wanted them to shoot it both ways, giving them power force the less funny ending. The Farelys talked about this over with Jim, and it was kind of a wink wink, "Oh no! Sorry studio! Jim Carrey our big star refused to shoot it the other way! Guess we gotta go with this ending!"

Timothy Lovejoy - "Short answer, "yes" with an "if." Long answer, "no" with a "but." 😆

This movie was my first PG-13 movie I saw without my parents, with my friends.

This looks ancient What no it’s only 30 years old?! I remember seeing this in theaters

God I love that cane scene. Harry winding up a full backswing to crack Lloyd in the back of the knees. I love the whole movie, but that's the first thing that pops into my head when I think of it.

I think Hanna-Barbera also produced an Animated Series basef on the Film............I AM DEAD SERIOUS!! Update: 3:01, 😂😂😂😂I just mentioned the Cartoon Show just a minute ago.

I love this move. And for the reason why I love this movie more than most would say, it's because of Loyd and Harry. Basically it's that as an actor it's easy to act stupid for comedic sake. But the genius of Dumb and Dumber is that the actors are playing characters who actually think they are super smart but are too stupid to comprehend what's going on around them. And that they also play the characters straight. Also the soundtrack is what really solidified this movie. A lot of great and witty jokes are dialogue focused.

Another Fun Fact: Jim Carrey was initially offered $700,000 to appear in the film. However, the offer went in the same week when Ace Ventura: Pet Detective opened at number 1 in the US box office, so by the time Carrey's agents had renegotiated with the film's producers, his salary had upped itself to $7 million, almost half the film's budget.

@@gryphonofmightyep! But with Jeff Daniels it was the exact opposite, he got a pay cut. He was only paid $50,000… because they didn’t want him in the movie. So they offered him a pay that was so low they thought he’d reject it and leave the project, but no he accepted it
