Cold Dead Hands
Well folks, I don't know if the moderators will allow this thread or not but here goes.
Did y'all see the new "Hee Haw" styled anti-gun video released by CANADIAN actor Jim Carrey? In it, he mocks everyone and everything associated with guns including the deceased Charlton Heston. I used to think Carrey was hilarious but now my whole opinion of this waste has changed dramatically. I read where he kept the attack up on Twitter (which I don't use) all day long. What a dirt bag for attacking a man who's not around to defend himself along with the hundreds of millions of gun owners. All decent Americans should refuse to give this guy another penny by not watching or buying his movies.

This is what one must do when ones career is in the tank. He has been vocal about being anti-guns for many years now - so it doesn't surprise me. Just another mouth without thought - so don't pay much attention to him. No class clown should be taken seriously.

I have always hated Jim Carrey.
I think he is an obnoxious, over-the-top *******. I never liked him even when he was popular.

The good thing about the first amendment is that people have a great tool to prove how ridiculous they are and that they should be ignored

He was alright in Bruce Almighty. Haven't paid him any attention since then. He's old news.

There's some chatter about his next movie being full of gun violence, by his character. Go figure.

If anything, I'd remove the link from your post. No point in our Forum being an avenue for people to find that BS on a Google search, etc.
Let somebody else host links to his garbage.
Just my opinion, and my opinion and $1.50 will get you a cup of coffee.

I started it but had to cut it off before it got very far. I have enjoyed Jim Carey's movies and even own several of them, well I did until I just threw them all in the garbage. I'm done with that idiot. I think he should go live in Russia or somewhere. we sure don't need a constitution hater and freedom hater like that in America.

I think it was Samuel Johnson who once said:
"A fly may sting a stately horse and make it wince, but one is still a stately horse, and the other...still a fly."
Just consider the source.

Very sad that he put himself in that production. What was the original source? The video quality is extremely poor and the costumes are rather poor as well. Looks like a highschool production quality skit. Even his lip sync is terrible. (maybe on purpose but still aweful) He does slip in the comment that it is comic satire but come on Jim, that was just bad.

I like his older stuff mostly. Pre Cable Guy .....and Bruce all mighty was kinda funny. I'll still watch his new stuff if its on tv. His OPINION on gun control doesnt bother me. If i had a problem with everything or everyone who didnt agree with my view I'd live in a bubble

Never liked him or thought he was funny. His brand of humor was lost on me. I would not waste my time watching a sketch relating his viewpoint on anything.
I could never understand why actors and actresses who play pretend all their lives think that the public needs to know their take on life! I gave up play pretending a long time ago.

This is rich! The apparent fact that so many smart folks were BAMBOOZLED by a piece of satire and now feel abused, reveals the simplistic level of social interaction that passes for intellectual intercourse in the 21st C.
THERE! I said it! Am I serious? Does anyone know? Do they really CARE?

I heard this being discussed on Fox News and went to Youtube to see it. It was poorly done, not the least bit amusing, and so typical for the left wing, anti gun crowd. They think they are so clever, and smarter than those who disagree with them. I understand their pathetic fear of guns but that doesn't make it any less pathetic. Charlton Heston was a class act, and a real life hero. He didn't just play heroes in movies; he believed in the civil rights movement and went to the deep south in this cause when it truly risked your life to do so. He stood firm for American values, most notably our 2nd Amendment. To mock him now that he is gone and cannot speak for himself is vile.

Who pays any attention to Jim Carrey anyway? The last movie he made worth watching was "Dr Doolittle" where he could talk to animals. ...What?...That wasn't Jim Carrey?

Look, you can poke fun at anything in my book. A man can take a joke even if it isn't funny. And Jim is in America, I 100% support his right to say what he wants. I'll pay to see any movie he is in if it looks good. I don't give a second thought to what the rich say, even if supports my argument. America is middle and lower class, upper class hasn't a clue.
That aside, that skit just plain wasn't funny.

He made some crack on Twitter about being appalled at gun owners. I'm appalled that anyone cares what a foul-mouthed, 3rd-rate ham actor thinks about anything.

Greg Gutman (Fox News) said it best, why would you listen to anyone who makes a career out of speaking from his "rectal orifice" (this actually was a Carrey character in one of his repulsive, toilet humor movies).

I try to view things like this objectively ... I feel I did well prior to responding ....

My opinion of Jim Carey and just about every single blowhard pansy leftist actor/actress cannot be published on a family oriented forum. Why people listen to these pablum puking gnat brains is unfathomable.

Once a You Tube video gets a certain number of "hits" the poster gets paid. I refuse to watch this although AFAIK it is free to watch. I just don't want my watching it to be a "checkmark" on the plus side for Mr Carey.
I may watch his professional work or I may not. The only one I refuse to watch is Hanoi Jane Fonda. An awful lot of Hollywood actors are lefties or at least pretend to be for the sake of their careers.
I have seen snips of this on TV, IMHO it is over the top. Perhaps that was the intent.

FUNNY????? Not Him, How about Abbot/Costello, Groucho Marx, Ernie Kovacs, Lewis/Martin, Soapy Sales,
Three Stooges, Jackie Gleason, Richard Pryor, Rodney Dangerfield, now they were funny.
Mr Carey couldn't carry Charlton Heston's jock strap. NUFF SAID!

Remember folks...this is Jim Carrey. I have watched his stuff for many years....back to when he got his start on In Living Color back in 1989. You never can take this guy seriously. He makes fun of everything. To me this is a joke. He has played a few emotional roles but nothing I would ever call serious or believable. Do not let this Hee Haw joke get to you. It is over exaggerated but that is his type of comedy. It is classic Jim Carrey.

Jim Carey does have talent, but Jim Carey also has mental issues of his own to deal with.
One must consider the source of these political rants.
The fact is that most people who the media push into the "lime light" are the freaks of society, not the normal people.
