Okay for a while there; I was thinking you guys were talking about the comedic actor.
 
"Funny or Die"

Based on the numbers for Burt Wonderstone, I think Carrey's career just died.

Remember when he used to get $20m a movie?

I will add another Carrey movie I liked. The Truman Show was good as a sociological thriller.
 
I didn't even know he was in that movie, and I thought it looked stupid because of Steve Carel.

Did you like eternal sunshine? The writer was the star of that movie but I thought it was fantastic

You know, I did like it, but not in a 'wow, that was amazing' way, but it was watchable after his tank job on his career. Man on the Moon blew me away, as did The Truman Show. The Majestic was shit, though, and he hasn't recovered from that bit of Hollywood propaganda, Eternal Sunshine maybe being the exception.
 
He has some interesting points. His best work was written under his pseudonym, Mary Rosh.

In 2002, he repeated the study, and reported that brandishing a weapon was sufficient to stop an attack 95% of the time. Other researchers criticized his methodology, saying that his sample size of 1,015 respondents was too small for the study to be accurate and that the majority of similar studies suggest a value between 70 and 80 percent.[32] Gary Kleck and Marc Gertz's 1994 estimate rises to 92 percent when brandishing and warning shots are added together.[33] Lott explained the lower rates found by others was at least in part due to the different questions that were asked.[34] The other surveys all asked people to recall events over the previous five years, while Lott had only asked people about events that had occurred during just the previous year. Lott used the higher estimate because it accounted for his claim of media bias. The survey questions have also been made available for years to anyone who would have liked to replicate the survey themselves.
