Jim Carrey's Best Serious Role

[kaoskid]

I doubt there's already been a thread about this, so here it is.

[Z-train]

Jim Carrey is only good in comedys. It is torture to watch Jim Carrey without him being Jim Carrey.:wave:

[Shin Akuma]

Jim Carrey is only good in comedys. It is torture to watch Jim Carrey without him being Jim Carrey.:wave:

Thats bullshit!

[jbaseball44]

Eternal Sunshine, easily.

[muchoawesomeo]

this was really hard. went with truman show, eternal sunshine was neck and neck tho

[briewer]

Eternal Sunshine, duh.

[jtresk26]

If anybody says The Number 23, you are fuckin' retarded.

[BulleTheory]

Jim Carrey is only good in comedys. It is torture to watch Jim Carrey without him being Jim Carrey.:wave:
the truman show wasnt bad.

[Ari Christos]

the truman show wasnt bad.

The Truman Show got my vote. Eternal Sunshine is great, but his performance in The Truman Show blows me away every time.

[Loge182]

Hes a great actor. Eternal Sunshine is my favorite movie though so it gets my vote.
Also, I havnt seen the Majestic. Is it any good?

[jared091]

I can't stand him in most comedies, it's just him yelling incoherently for 85 minutes.

voted for The Truman Show

[Tim Lincecum]

truman show doesnt seem like it should be bunched with the others, its still a comedy in my mind

[jay_klinkhammer]

I really liked The Truman Show

[Indoor Living]

The Truman Show and Eternal Sunshine are both my favorites, but the latter edges out the former by a small margin after I think about it.

[I'm DC]

Eternal Sunshine is easily one of my favorite movies.

[fadedmemories]

Sunshine!

[hf57]

eternal sunshine will easily win this

[Radiology]

obviously

Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, one of the best movies of all time. period.

[Theseventhson]

Truman Show, never seen Eternal Sunshine.

[princesschad]

Eternal Sunshine.

[Neo Cassady]

Toss-up between Truman and Eternal Sunshine. I went with the latter.

[Loch_Doun]

Eternal Sunshine proves he actually CAN act. (wow)
Same goes for Adam Sandler in Punch Drunk Love.

[smorgy]

eternal sunshine ftw

[kdefrisc]

the cable guy

[VIVALAMATT]

Don't underrate Man On The Moon in this poll.

[FiveIronFlores]

Poor Jim, never satisfied to just be a funny dude who makes people laugh at his funniness

[NateFoundGlory]

the cable guy

Also good! Even though it was kinda funny...

Eternal Sunshine, followed closely by The Truman Show. ES is easily in my top 10 favorite movies.

lol yeah i was being facetious

[bowl of oranges]

Definitely Eternal Sunshine. My favourite movie of all time.

[IceAge/HeatWave]

truman show for sure. man on the moon was great acting as well, although it was probably kind of easy for him to portray andy kaufman because i see a lot of similarities in their show personality.

[cereal4life]

The Truman Show is by far the best. Should have won an Oscar! An excellent film.

[mutualaddiction]

I tear up at the end of the Truman Show every time I watch it. So good.

Eternal Sunshine is good too, but not my favorite.

[mike'smannequin]

Jim Carrey is only good in comedys. It is torture to watch Jim Carrey without him being Jim Carrey.:wave:
thats not true at all

[xjulianx89]

Eternal Sunshine is one of my all time favorites, so..

[CarouselBoy]

Hes a great actor. Eternal Sunshine is my favorite movie though so it gets my vote.
Also, I havnt seen the Majestic. Is it any good?

yes, it's great. It's got a really good story.

WoW! I'm one of the only people to vote for the Majestic...i seriously love that movie...oh well...i hated the number 23 tho:annoyed:

I'm guessing more people haven't voted for it because they haven't seen it. I don't personally know hardly anyone whos seen it. Great movie though.

[ihatecayte]

whoever voted for the number 23 needs to re-watch that crap excuse of a movie. the majestic is better than that thing, and the majestic is kind of ehhh. eternal's best in my mind, but i do love the truman show. both excellent movies.

[Alexx Miller]

Eternal Sunshine was such a great film.

[mxpxjf]

They are ALL amazing. Though I went with The Majestic for the courtroom scene at the end. One of my favorite movie scenes of all time.

[TangledUp]

I LOVE Eternal Sunshine, one of my favorite movies of all time, but in terms of acting, he was brilliant in Man on the Moon.

[andrewshungry]

so fucking tough not picking eternal sunshine but i went with the truman show.

[Bloodsucker II]

Went with Eternal Sunshine but Truman Show was right up there.

[BrandonRules]

I LOVE Eternal Sunshine, one of my favorite movies of all time, but in terms of acting, he was brilliant in Man on the Moon.

I agree completely. Eternal Sunshine is the best movie out of these but his best role is that of Andy Kaufman. If you have ever seen any of Andy Kaufman's roles, you can see that Jim Carrey does an amazing portrayal that I don't think any other actor could have been capable of. In Eternal Sunshine, he also did a great job, but I think there are other actors that could have replaced him and the movie wouldn't have missed a beat.

[thespearkid]

i wonder if eternal sunshine would be winning if Circa Survive and Bayside hadn't referenced it in their songs.

[domotime2]

the way this poll is going makes the most sense to me.
1) Eternal
2) Truman
3) Man on Moon

7 votes for majestic? Damn. I took a date to see Majestic. It ruined my chances.

[red8ge]

still haven't seen eternal sunshine, so truman show.

[Feenucks]

The Truman Show got my vote. Eternal Sunshine is great, but his performance in The Truman Show blows me away every time.

This.

[Broden Terry]

The Truman Show :nod:

[I am Mick]

I love Eternal Sunshine

[SLoT]

motm

[Fedaykin]

The fact that Man on the Moon has almost the same number of votes as The Number 23 is a testament to how underrated Man on the Moon is

[Alex DiVincenzo]

Definitely Eternal Sunshine. Love that movie.

[Miss Heartcore]

Eternal Sunshine is such an incredible movie, come on now.

[246toothpicks]

Don't underrate Man On The Moon in this poll.

Yeah that was my vote. Amazing how spot-on he was as both Andy and Tony Clifton.

[Yellowcard2006]

Truman show (though I haven't seen Eternal Sunshine)

[futilespider]

only seen truman show and 23, loved both.

23 was a little better i think though.

[Cuddleworthy]

eternal sunshine, no question

[Miss Heartcore]

23 was a little better i think though.
Such a weird freaking movie.

[futilespider]

Such a weird freaking movie.


yeah for real man. jim carrey played it great though.

i thought it was pretty good.

[peder458]

"and in case I don't see ya, good afternoon, good evening and goodnight!"

[seraph1214]

I'm not gonna vote cause I haven't seen all of the movies, but The Truman Show was great.

[J Me]

Truman Show by far. One of my favorite movies and a great performance by Carrey

[radxbandit]

good poll! tough to choose between truman and eternal, but i picked eternal. it's one of my favorite movies.

[nerdvglc]

eternal sunshine really is his best performance ever, imo.

[superBMRuth]

Eternal Sunshine is one of my desert island movies, so i picked that one.
