        It was a little distracting, but the pace and direction made up for it, imo. -- nm - Inigo Feb 20, 09:41

- specially nest guard had one. not the thermostat or smoke alarm. -- nm - tRuMaN Feb 20, 08:43 2

        Yeah, I am teasing. -- nm - Spawn Feb 20, 08:38
    - A Christmas Carol -- nm - Roger More Feb 20, 08:32 7
      - Oh, oops. Fun With Dick and Jane? -- nm - Roger More Feb 20, 08:32 6
        
        You got it. #11 $110M -- nm - MDH Feb 20, 08:37 5
        
        we went from top 5 to 10 to 11? man, someone has problems stopping a poll.. - tRuMaN Feb 20, 08:38 4
        
        ... to 12. -- nm - Spawn Feb 20, 08:40
        
        Hi! I added on his $100M grossing movies since many had been guessed :-) -- nm - MDH Feb 20, 08:39 2
        
        I approve of this choice. Top 5 was done within two minutes, which is no fun. -- nm - Roger More Feb 20, 08:42
        
        someone must be needing a break for tax season. -- nm - tRuMaN Feb 20, 08:41
    - Yes Man -- nm - The Commander Feb 20, 08:31 2
      - #13 $97M -- nm - MDH Feb 20, 08:36 1
        
        We could have gotten that to $100M -- nm - Disney Feb 20, 08:40
  - Snickett -- nm - Spawn Feb 20, 08:29 1
    - #10 $118M -- nm - MDH Feb 20, 08:29
  - Man on the Moon, Kickass II? -- nm - Name Withheld By Request Feb 20, 08:28 3
    - $34M, $28M -- nm - MDH Feb 20, 08:28 2
      - Surprised on the first (I misremembered), not at all on the second. -- nm - Name Withheld By Request Feb 20, 08:29 1
        
        Surprised it made that much, maybe. -- nm - Spawn Feb 20, 08:30
- Grinch, Bruce Almighty, Dumb & Dumber, Horton, Batman Forever -- nm* - AJRimmer Feb 20, 08:23 1
  - 4/5, not Dumb and Dumber. Replace with Liar, Liar -- nm - MDH Feb 20, 08:25
- Dumb and Dumber, Ace Ventura Pet Detective -- nm - Beaker Feb 20, 08:23 1
  - #7 $124M (sequel #15 $86M), #16 $72 (When Nature Calls #12 $108M) -- nm - MDH Feb 20, 08:25
- Bruce -- nm - Spawn Feb 20, 08:23 8
  - #2 $242M (I think this is in the running for signature role) -- nm - MDH Feb 20, 08:24 7
    - I can not really recall the character. It blends with truman, etc. The Mask is it for me, but I think the real argument can be for Ace. -- nm - Spawn Feb 20, 08:28 5
      - I think you could argue all 3 of his 1994 roles (Ace / Mask / Dumb and Dumber) ... I go Ace because it was so fresh - Will Hunting Feb 20, 08:29 4
        
        For many it might also come down to which they saw first, Ace or Mask. -- nm - Spawn Feb 20, 08:31
        
        Ace in the first flick was actually quite competent as well. That's the secret sauce: He was a good detective. -- nm - Name Withheld By Request Feb 20, 08:31
        
        I agree with this, 1994 was something for him. -- nm - MDH Feb 20, 08:30 1
        
        If only they had made the Fire Marshal Bill movie. Then he could have been something. -- nm - Spawn Feb 20, 08:37
    - I think it has to be Ace Ventura. First major hit; still a tremendously recognizable character... -- nm - Will Hunting Feb 20, 08:25
- Grinch -- nm - Spawn Feb 20, 08:22 3
  - And Horton. -- nm - Spawn Feb 20, 08:22 1
    - #5 $154M -- nm - MDH Feb 20, 08:22
  - #1 $260M -- nm - MDH Feb 20, 08:22
- Truman Show -- nm* - Beaker Feb 20, 08:21 1

- Batman 3 -- nm - Beaker Feb 20, 08:21 1
  - #3 $184M -- nm - MDH Feb 20, 08:21
From B2 - that CovCath kid is probably gonna need that sweet Wash Post cash to pay for his inevitable defense team - The Commander Feb 20, 08:20
The Samsung S10 is officially revealed today. Can't wait to see those prices. -- nm - Shaun Feb 20, 08:18 2
- Samsung Fold looks amazing. I was going to get a Note 10 if it had 5G, but now I am not sure. -- nm - Bacon Feb 20, 08:19 1
  - Get both. -- nm - Spawn Feb 20, 08:20
Signature role: Jim Carrey -- nm - Mop Feb 20, 08:14 15
- Fire marshal bill -- nm - Amoxy Feb 20, 09:13
- Ace Ventura. It's a character created by Carrey that embraces his zany-ness. Lots of the others - The Mask, Bruce Almighty, Liar Liar, even Truman - - Roger More Feb 20, 08:31
- Ace Ventura. -- nm - Will Hunting Feb 20, 08:26
- Ace Ventura. -- nm - Name Withheld By Request Feb 20, 08:24
- Stanley Ipkiss -- nm - Spawn Feb 20, 08:21
- Jenny McCarthy's anti-vaxxer puppet. -- nm - Ender Feb 20, 08:21
- Ace Ventura. -- nm - Shaun Feb 20, 08:17
- liar liar or truman show -- nm - tRuMaN Feb 20, 08:17
- Eternal Sunshine is his high point. -- nm - David, Earth’s Mightiest Hero Feb 20, 08:16 3
  - But not the question being asked here... -- nm - Ender Feb 20, 08:19 1
    - *narrows eyes* -- nm - David, Earth’s Mightiest Hero Feb 20, 08:22
  - That's my fav -- nm - Bacon Feb 20, 08:16
- Ace Ventura -- nm - decline Feb 20, 08:15
- Pet Detective -- nm* - Beaker Feb 20, 08:15 1
  - but you could easily make an argument for Lloyd Christmas in Dumb and Dumber; Mask, Truman... -- nm - Beaker Feb 20, 08:17
Roll, let's go. -- nm - Shaun Feb 20, 08:14 2
- umm, warm rolls. -- nm - tRuMaN Feb 20, 08:15 1
