[xwolverine2]

[StrainedEyes]

What happened to that futuristic robot that thing Jim Carrey was going to do.. Something about robot husbands I think.

 

[TNC9852002]

Rocky Carroll is still getting work, yay!

But, as all Jim Carrey movies, I'm interested already!

[The Amazing Lee]

It will NEVER be as good as the book. I am pretty sad that it's Jim Carrey and it's going to be all American.

It's about this guy:

Not some hollywood big shot...as much as I admire some of Jim Carrey's work..this is going to disappoint...I can feel it in my bones. It cannot be as a charismatic as the writer Danny Wallace...nor will the film be able to carry the weight of the book...about an average joe writer who decides to say Yes to more things after splitting up with his long term girlfriend.

 

[TNC9852002]

The original book readers always seem to have the same thing to say about the movie adaptations. If it were me, I would've learned to lower my expectations and take the film for what it is and not for what it isn't that's in the book.

[The Amazing Lee]

But it's not like I want a movie version...I'd rather just have the book.

 

[GoldenAgeHero]

sounds interesting , I'll see it.

 

[The Amazing Lee]

It could still be good and I shall give it a chance...it just seems like it will be a Yes Man: In Name Only.

Well...for the most part.

[tzarinna]

[fu manchu]

gay = happy

Danny said himself on Friday Night with Jonathan Ross that he saw a rough cut of the film and it only uses themes from the book and is more of a surreal drama/comedy. Dosen't sound to good and that chick looks to weird in everything she's in. Especially that crap fest The Happening. I don't really think she can act.

 

[Carmine Falcone]

No, man.



Poor I know.

The Teaser for Jim Carrey's Yes Man

 

[xwolverine2]

looks ok...

nice to see jim carrey is one of the comedians who's still funny after all these years

 

[Gotham]

It doesn't look bad! Can't wait to see a little more.

 

[fu manchu]

red bull...red bull..red bull....

 

[AlteredEgo]

i thought the teaser looked pretty funny.

 

[ttotheusher]

Wait a second...Rhys Darby is in this? I must now see it.

But in all seriousness, Danny Wallace and his book are both brilliant, and this has the potential to be a good laugh.

 

[chamber-music]

Danny Wallace is awesome I liked that one where he started his own cult

 

[The Amazing Lee]

That's also apparently being made into a movie...with Jack Black.

 

[Matt]

Zooey Deschanel has been in...like...everything as of late.
