41st episode, wow, that doesn't sound right,
41st episode of the MWIRE Movie Weekend Review.
Today we are going to be discussing the Ace Ventura
films. I am TF2 and Mike, and joining me as usual
is Steve Megaton. Hello. Hello. How are you,
sir? They're in a slight cold, pretty damn good.
Yeah. This week's episode, it'll have a little
bit more positive vibe than last week's, Still,
once we get to the bat guano film, all positive
is out the window for me. I hate that movie.
I don't like that movie. There's so many damn
good quotes. You can't just judge it by the guano
because I don't care for the guano part. You
need the guano. This will pretty much be a Steve
episode. This will probably be one of I know
that you love Police Academy and I know that
you love these films So, you know most of this
stuff that we've done here on M wire for scheduling
Has been whatever I have on my DVD shelves And
a lot of it is you know stuff that I really enjoy
watching and that I want to talk about but there
are Blasphemy. You want me to do the first film
and you can talk about the second film or? Sure.
Okay. Ace Ventura Pet Detective is a 1994 American
comedy film directed by Tom Szadyak and starring
Jim Carrey. It co -stars Courtney Cox, Tony Locke,
and Sean Young. Among others, Miami Dolphins
quarterback Dan Moreno also portrays himself
in a major role, though this was Carey's 14th
film role and considered to be the one that launched
his successful film career. It also did very
well in the box office, grossing over $410 million
worldwide with a budget of $11 million. Because
of that, it went on for a sequel titled Ace Matera
When Nature Calls. Bullshit! An animated series!
In an animated series which went on for three
seasons When did you first did? No, this wasn't
something I saw in theaters. I caught up to it
on VHS, but was this something that you saw in
theaters? No, this is something I saw on the
movie channels with my dad Which is right up
our alley with comedy. Yeah Well, you know, it's
one of those things where yes I will agree that
this launched Carrie's career as far as the superstar
film actor that he is now. And I do really enjoy
this one. But, you know, it's always funny to
me where when I see stuff that I don't normally,
like I wouldn't normally know that person being
from, like... Carrie was in 1985's Once Bitten
about this this teenage guy in this older quote
-unquote vampire lady who needs to suck a virgin's
blood to be you know young and not old it was
just like one of those 80s off off -color kite
type comedies It is very good. It's very funny,
but I saw that on one of the movie channels one
time like wait Well, what's Jim Carrey doing
in this? And he looks a lot younger than Ace
Ventura, because it was like right around that
time. It was like 95, 96 when I found One Spittin'.
Yeah. And I was like, wow. And of course, everybody
knows, most everybody should know that he was
Fire Marshall Bill on In Living Color, which
I love Fire Marshall Bill. That was hilarious.
Go ahead. I was going to say, I've never actually
seen the show. I mean, I've seen clips. a lot
with Jim Carrey in it, just because I was curious
what he'd done before. But that makes him the
perfect person to be playing Ace Ventura just
because of the wackiness that he did in that
show. I can't even do the voice, but my mom used
to be able to do it a little bit about the let
me tell you something thing that Fire Marshall
Bill did. And honestly, there's always been a
war. Like, OK, Saturday Night Live is the main
staple of comedy sketch. type late night shows.
Then you had Mad TV, and you had In Living Color,
and all this stuff. In Living Color it wasn't,
maybe I'm remembering it wrong, but for me it
wasn't that big of a deal, all the other sketches
in that show, but Fire Marshall Bill was awesome.
Yeah, I remember where he lit himself on fire.
Yeah, that was almost every sketch. I've seen
one on YouTube, so it was kind of funny. Yes.
I should also mention that this probably will
never happen again on MWIRE. I'll try not for
it to happen again. But this is the second week
in a row that we're talking about a Courtney
Cox movie. Because last week when we did Masters
of the Universe with Kevin and I, she's in that
as well. Yeah, that's right. I forgot about that.
Yep. So getting into the do we want to just summarize
it or do we want to go through the entire plot?
Basically Ace Ventura starts out as Basically
a UPS kind of guy at the beginning of the movie,
but it's not really a UPS guy. He's actually
there to Piss this guy off and steal the pet
mm -hmm Because he was hired to retrieve the
puppy and so This guy's shooting through his
back window, busts the window, he catches a bullet
in his teeth. Further pisses him off and then
you see him get in an argument with his landlord
because he thinks that he has a bunch of animals
in there and he shakes his keys and the animals
disappear. They look around, don't see anything.
Then all the animals come out from odd ass places.
Then he's hired to find the mascot of Miami Dolphins,
Snowflake. I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I have to stop
you right there because who the fuck names a
pet snowflake? Especially a dolphin. They should
call him Wave Rider. Continue, sorry. Oh, that's
fine. And then you get a couple of people that
work for the dolphins that are... you know hiring
well there's a publicist and then a uh operations
guy that uh are trying to find snowflake for
the super bowl or uh they get canned incoming
of einhorn and the police which is a constant
recurrence where ace is constantly pissing them
off and showing how dumb they really are in their
detective skills throughout the entire film yeah
the only one that is actually trust is uh...
caregivers even the movie but i don't like right
what's up now it's like a total yeah it's just
a little uh... dammit what else is down and keep
keep going on looking up he played up you know
and you know that's what it was nevermind and
it is constantly going to random people to gain
information as well as parties and discovers
that it was somebody from the inside that did
it because they hate Dan Marino. And then he
figures out that Einhorn is Finkel. Finkel is
Einhorn. And a long scene of brushing teeth occurs.
With plungers. Yes. realizes that uh... Finkel's
not really dead it's yeah actually Einhorn which
is pretty gross by the end of the movie he comes
full circle finds Dan Marino finds Snowflake
uh... yes and uh... basically humiliates the
shit out of Einhorn and then gets in a fight
with the mascot of the Dolphins because it ruined
his original... No, no, no, no, no. It wasn't
the mascot of the Dolphins. It was the mascot
of the Eagles. Yeah, that's right. I knew it
was one of them. Yeah, the mascot for the Dolphins
was Snowflake. Never mind. Yeah, he's going to
get in a fight with a dolphin. But yeah, he gets
in a fight with it because it scares away this
bird that he's trying to catch. That's a $125
,000 reward or something like that. I don't think
it was that much. I think it was like 25 ,000.
Yeah, I remember seeing 25 something. So it was
either 25 ,000 or 125 ,000. No, it says 25 ,000.
OK. But yeah, he gets enraged and beats the hell
out of this mascot. And you get to see him on
the Jumbotron. And yeah. So that's how the first
film ends. But there are a lot of awesome quotes
and funny moments in this film, though. Oh, god.
The, uh, the. But I was, as you were talking
about it, I was scrolling down through the plot
and the rich guy with the party and the giant
fucking shark. That's not snowflake, what the?
All that stuff, that was hilarious. I like where
he came out of the bathroom after getting a fight
with a shark and goes, do not go in there, woo!
Yeah, that was awesome. That was one of the Like
when they I remember when I previews for this
film back then That was one of the main things
of of the TV spots and trailers was that was
that clip there? Yeah, yeah, I love that clip
that was that was hilarious Another one that
I liked was when he was actually searching in
the tank for snowflake which had been drained
he's acting like he's from the enterprise captain's
log and then he starts saying a bunch of stuff
and then uh... uh... try to think uh... i can't
remember the exact phrase i'll have it for the
clip later but yeah there's a lot of funny moments
in this film another one of those many clips
is when he's uh... In the apartment trying to
find out how the person fell from the the balcony
and somebody actually heard When he proved that
it was a soundproof glass. Oh Yeah, he stood
there and went yeah the singing thing. Yeah.
Yeah You shut the door and open it you'd hear
him and then you wouldn't hear him that that
was funny as hell Mm -hmm. Constantly being a
thorn in Einhorn side Yes Huh, until the end.
Excuse me, I must confer with my colleague. Ace,
Ace, look. Ladies and gentlemen, I found Captain
Winky. Yeah! Oh boy. Yes, that was so gross.
Yeah. Um... But, um... You know, this one was...
This was really, really well done, especially
it being the launching point of his film career.
We kind of already mentioned the box office stuff,
but let's see. It was much more popular, however,
with the general public making back over six
times its budget at the U .S. box office and
embedding itself the Ventura character and his
catchphrase in pop culture. along with the mask
in Dumb and Dumber. This film is widely credited
with launching the career of star Jim Carrey,
who won the 1994 MTV Movie Award for best comedic
performance. The film's popularity spawned a
1995 sequel, When Nature Calls, with Carrey returning
in the lead. As far as the TV version, When it
aired in syndication, several scenes are either
edited or completely removed to make up for this.
Several deleted scenes are added, such as Ace
posing in the official dolphin trainer to the
press. The following were not included in the
DVD. A short scene where Ace asks for directions
to the pigskin sports bar, followed by a scene
at the pigskin sports bar where Ace finds out
where Finkel's parents live. Ace calls Emilio
from the mental hospital, followed by a scene
where Ace drops Melissa off at home. Ace visits
his hippie friend again, followed by a scene
where he gets up on stage with Cannibal Corpse,
a short scene of Melissa being blamed for Marino's
disappearance, and Snowflake getting ahold of
Einhorn's gun. Are any of these scenes part of
the original movie? I have no idea. I've actually
never seen those scenes. Well, if you've never
seen them, then apparently they're not part of
the original movie, I guess. I don't know, but
it says that they're not included on the DVD.
So I have no idea. If anyone can tell us, email
us, steveatgeekcastradio .com or mine is tfguandmikeatgmail
.com. Let us know, because I honestly don't remember.
Yeah, and if you know where we can find clips
of them to watch them, we'll put them up. on
the site with the episode. to Ace after hearing
that the case involves strange animals. Progressive
rock band The Fall of Troy has a song titled
Laces Out Dan. D &B alt -rock band Ubiquitous
Synergy Seeker has a song entitled Laces Out
which they have stated is inspired by Ace Ventura.
They ask the crowd if they have seen the movie
and then proceed to ask which way the lace is
faced to which the crowd replies out. And there's
a laces out back and forth to get the crowd pumped
before they play this song Let's see in the World
of Warcraft Dungeon of Upper Blackrock Spire
There is a character named Finkel Einhorn to
reference to the character in the movie. Oh my
god. Oh Jesus In the office episode new boss
Pam says I can tell Michael's moon by which comedy
routine he chooses to do The more infantile the
more obsidious, and he just skipped the Ace Ventura
talking butt thing. He never skips it. That was,
that was another one of the great lines. Where
he sticks his ass in, uh, in that black face
and starts. It's Tomeloke, but yeah, um, yeah,
I have to ask you a few questions. You wouldn't
want me to get mad, would you? Let's see, what
else? Former UFC chin rich Franklin is nicknamed
Ace because of his uncanny resemblance to Jim
Carrey and his character Ace Ventura. Overall,
I enjoy this film. It's not something that I
could watch. Like, some things are better with
time. Like if you, like say I watched it back
in... like when it first came, whenever it first
got released, a video or DVD or whatever, you
know, I'd watch it. I wouldn't be able to come
back to it for at least two or three years. Yeah,
I can honestly say this is one movie that, I
mean, I love the Ace films, but I cannot watch
this one as many times as I can watch the second
film. Well, it's not even that. It's not really
about that I can't watch the film. The film has
an overall, I guess, good plot. You know, there's
a few twists and turns and that scene at the
parents house. Oh my god. Was that freaking creepy?
Yeah The parents just alone looked creepy exactly
exactly and then they got their gun out ready
to shoot him He says yes, I'd like to come in
and he says and I'd like a fresh pair of shorts
Yeah It's more so for The reason why I can't
watch it, you know, often is because it's more
so for Carrie, honestly. Not that he acted badly,
but it was just so over - that Ace Ventura, the
character, Ace Ventura, is so over the top, and
I get that, but it's just, it's almost like sensory
overload for me watching this film, especially
the mental institution scene. Oh my god. Where
he's sitting there and he's in a tutu and his
hair's all over the place and he starts banging
his head on stuff. Yeah, then he knocks his face
out right into a bench. Yeah, I love that scene
I mean, it's a good scene. I'm not saying it
isn't I really don't have like any major issues
with this movie, but It you you have to watch
it It's kind of like you know how all these TV
stations like TNT and TBS have these like hey
Saturday night new classics on TNT or hey, you
know we have Thursday night man at the movies
or whatever on TBS. It's like you know if it
comes on TV Oh, okay cool ace I haven't seen
that in a while, but do I actively go over to
my DVD shelf and pick it out to watch it fuck
no Yeah, I can honestly say I haven't done that
in a while. I've like I said if for instance
when nature calls is on my instant cue on Netflix
I'll watch that more often just because it's
starting in there yeah but I haven't physically
moved the DVDs that I own in probably a couple
years yeah not that it's a bad movie I would
watch this movie over and over if it was on the
Netflix but that's just because I like to watch
the same damn thing over and over and over it's
just one of those things where you know it's
nice at least for me it's nice every now and
then but it's not something I can constantly
watch yeah you have anything else you want to
bring up about it no I think I'm good there okay
I guess we are gonna go on to when nature calls
And we'll be back after the trailer. miss the
big kick blames the whole thing on merino we're
talking paranoid delusional psychosis I saw the

Alright we are back and next up in the Ace Saga
is when nature calls and nature should never
call. I'll give the little information bit and
then Steve will summarize the plot for us. Ace
Ventura When Nature Calls is a 1995 sequel to
Ace Ventura Pet Detective. Jim Carrey reprises
his role as the title character Ace Ventura,
a detective who specializes in cases involving
animals. This is the only sequel to a film starring
Carrey in which Carrey reprised his role to date.
In McNeese, Simon Callow, and Sophie Okano co
-star, Tommy Davidson, who co -starred with Carrie
on TV's In Living Color, makes a cameo appearance
in the film. It was written and directed by Steve
Oldenkirk, who also collaborated in the making
of the earlier movie. Original director Tom DiCercio
left after shooting began. I have no interest
in this movie whatsoever, so this is pretty much
going to be all you. I love this film. Yes, this
film starts out with Ace trying to save a raccoon
in the Himalayas. He goes through an emotional
breakdown because the line snaps and the raccoon
falls to its death, forever crushing the soul
of Ace. Then you see Fulton Greenwall, who is
a pretty ignorant character throughout the movie,
especially in the ways of Ace. But he's highly
intelligent in the Wachati and whatever the other
name of the other group is. But he goes up to
this temple, which He's looking for ace to find
the Great white bat mm -hmm and ends up in this
room with ace where he's got his eyes rolled
in the back of his head and Indian pose and Butterflies
floating around his head and all kinds of animals
all over and he waits until Fulton gets close
And then he scares the shit out of him making
all the butterflies just like scattered randomly
Basically Tries to make it look like he doesn't
want to do this anymore and they offer him a
bribe and he Does his re he he he Lee and then
decides to go and they throw a party because
he's leaving Like good riddance and then he says
there's one more thing I must do and then it
skips the next scene He's doing the slinky down
what looks like thousands of stairs and it misses
the last step and he wants to do it again and
they're like there's no time he's like well let's
do everything you want to do then anyways it
goes on and he goes through a crazy car ride
uh similar to his antics in the previous movie
and parking the car uh goes in there sees that
this guy that wants to find the bat is a hunter
which irritates the shit out of him uh Onward
they go to meet the different tribes and he tries
to look for ways of finding what he doesn't know
is a bat at the time. And in the process ends
up irritating various folks from both tribes
on purpose. Similar to anything Ace would like
to do. gets in a fight with the opposing tribe,
which is very violent. Does something he's not
supposed to do to the princess of that tribe.
You make it sound so horrible. Well, it's a natural
act, but for Ace, it's very, very natural for
him. So he teaches her the ways that Ace ventures
pence. Anyways, he gets back on to trying to
find out what is going on with the The the bat
and he's spying on who he thinks has it Can't
remember the guy's name, I think it's Quinn and
He Quinn decide there is he owns a zoo in the
African And so what happens is Ace is sitting
in a giant metal Rhino watching the entire event
go on. And then there's Taurus going by and slowly
the air conditioner goes out. Then the fans,
then the electronics. So he's stripping down
to barely anything, actually nothing inside the
Rhino. In the process, he's trying to get out
because the door, he's trying to get out of the
Rhino. and cannot get out of the rhino until
he finds a hole starts digging his way out and
a family happens to stand by watch him squeeze
his ass out says look oh the mother rhinos giving
birth and then out plops ace all sweaty and nasty
looking like he was just giving birth oh yeah
and then he tries to he antagonizes Quinn after
he gets him all tied up and starts giving him
a wet willy, which makes him tell him everything
he wants to know, which is absolutely nothing,
finds the poachers, tricks them into thinking
they're looking after something different, and
they bring the ace back, and again, they run
into, I believe it's Vincent Cadby, who he discovers
is the one that wanted the whole fight to happen.
all the blood shed and wanted the bat because
of some uh i believe money issues so again he
ends up on the chase gets all the animals to
distract everybody and bust through the the house
by doing his uh ace call ace ass yeah that's
a good good one i think that's why they did the
ace the ass joke he talked with his ace Oh, God.
That's horrible, dude. That's probably why they
came up with it. That makes sense. That's worse
than my joke about Hot Girl in one of the Secret
Origins episodes. I said, I don't know, she did
something with her mace. And I said, Hot Girl
is a -macing instead of amazing. Wow. He finds
out or ace finds out that he's you know covered
the crimes for the guy just because he had a
detective look He could run off and get away
with it So cadby runs away I'm coming in the
next scene you see cadby with the the bat and
the passenger seat, which he's completely freaked
out by They're driving through the forest and
all of a sudden you see a giant Monster truck.
It's an s10 on huge huge friggin wheels coming
behind the The little Jeep and he's gaining on
them and then he lifts up the top throws the
Cigarette lighter onto the guy lands on his crotch
amazingly which means that ace has good aim It
burns him he crashes into a tree the bat gets
wedged in the tree the guy tries to run ace runs
over the the truck and the guy gets caught by
the various villages And ace brings the bat and
they all bow before him and he gives him the
bat Then they figure out that the princess at
the end has been deflowered Mm -hmm, so to speak
and they all go ape shit chasing him off into
the clothes of the film Leading to wonder where
the hell did ace go? Already go it never does
say because if if you check That I know most
people hate and I repeat hate Ace Ventura Jr.
I can understand why. Because you can never make
a film off of another film. Now, Ace Ventura
Detective Jr. is not all that bad. I would watch
this before I'd watch Son of the Mask or Dumb
and Dumber -er. Because to me, those two films
are complete and under garbage. This film isn't
so bad other than the fact they have a fat ace.
Mm -hmm. Mm -hmm. To me is just retarded. You
know a while ago when we were talking about pet
detective Yes, you know I said that Well, it's
a good film. It's not something I can watch all
the time pet detective to me is isn't should
only be the the absolute grail of the Ace Ventura
character I I completely did not like when nature
calls that one aside it's just there was too
much disgusting stuff you know you mentioned
the rhino giving birth scene or that's just uh...
that's not fucking comedy to me and this is what
he was eating the uh... he was eating the guano
he's like what is that some kind of fruit they're
like bat droppings and he just drops the plate
and he's biting his tongue he was eating bat
shit that's not funny I like where he did the
spitball scene where he was trying to knock the
guy off the pole. He was trying to balance. He's
like, with my help, he could be good. Yeah, I
just don't have any... You know, I saw this once,
and once was enough for me. If people like it,
fine, whatever. Everybody's entitled to their
own opinion. Me, personally... This is probably
the worst film Jim Carrey has ever done in my
opinion. Oh, blasphemy. No. Yes, blasphemy. No.
I love this film. How dare you? Because I can.
Bastard. Going into the... Other information
here, uh, production notes, it says here, uh,
Jim Carrey, uh, based on the box office success
of the first Ace Ventura film, received a salary
of five million dollars for this sequel. Oof.
That's not a lot. Well, to people like us that
don't have it, that's a fuckin' lot, but I mean,
yeah, compared to movie standards, no, that's
not a lot at all. Apparently there are some alternate
versions out there when aired in syndication
There is an alternate version of the Rhino scene
in which ace stands up after falling out of the
Rhino and shouts Man was I lost? The UK release
of the film features a number of cuts totaling
1 minute and 35 seconds for the theatrical release
plus the further 3 seconds when reclassified
for home video. Those cutscenes include elements
of the raccoon rescue attempt, Ace's comment
of excuse me your balls are showing, Bumblebee
Tuna to a crouching tribe member, Ace's snorting
is shortened when displaying his affection to
the Chief. Before Greenwall catches Ace masturbating
in the tent, this is made more explicit through
Ace's shadow on the wall, which is accompanied
by some dialogue. Hmm, they're taking something
from... Well, no, actually Austin Powers took
it from them. Let's see, the scene in Ace's prodding
his eyeball while lecturing Quinn has been shortened.
After removing the apple core from one Watatoo's
throat, Ace then pushes a baby out of another.
Ew, gross. Oh yeah, I remember that. Oh god,
during Ace's deal, the warrior stands on Ace's
crotch and rips the spears from his legs. Ew.
However, during the projector scene, the UK version
features ace casting bird -like shadows with
both hands as opposed to the single hand in the
original release. This film was shot with Super
35, so the full screen version is open matte
and reveals more to the top and bottom of the
screen, sections that were not actually intended
to be seen. It also crops the sides. You know,
opposed to, you know, Steve's, you know, repeated
cries of blasphemy, the film received mainly
negative reviews from critics. It currently holds
a 33 % rotten rating on rottentomatoes .com.
The other, on the other hand, it was received
quite well by the public, getting 60 % out of
100. Oh, that's fucking stupid. Fucking, oh Jesus,
fucking robots, fucking morons. Um, it grossed,
uh, $37 ,804 ,076 opening weekend. The total
US box office gross was $108 ,360 ,063. Apparently
it won awards, which is fucking amazing. Uh,
ASCAP Award, American Comedy Award, Kids' Choice
Award. How the fuck can this movie be at the
Kids' Choice Awards? You know, in a day and age
now where it's like, oh my god, I can't, you
know, subject my kids to that and no, I'm not
gonna have them watch this or watch that. How
the hell did this film get a Kids' Choice Award?
I don't know, but that's hilarious. I watched
it as a kid. Oh my god, and that's what's fucking
wrong with you. That's probably why the beast
unleashed between me and Michael Wilson goes
so downhill. Oh god, don't draw lines between
this show and that show, that's horrible. Oh
crap. Well, Michael Wilson is just disturbed
anyways, so, you know. Yeah, we knew that. It
won a MTV Movie Award. It was nominated for Best
uh kiss okay um and it won uh or it was nominated
for a razzie award honestly this film like i
said before just can to me can die in a fire
i just don't like this one whatsoever i think
this movie's funny i especially like the scene
where he's in the house at the very beginning
in the mansion and That guy said there ace goes
up to the lady and says that's a lovely scarf
you're wearing and then he starts mocking her
and she says you should try it sometime and he's
like all right, I will and then he punches her
husband and then starts carrying him around on
his shoulders and Then just before it hits commercial
after he's done parading him around He flips
them backwards Makes his head move when he shakes
them and says do not pass go do not collect two
hundred dollars because they look like he's because
it when he first intro to him he says and you
must be the monopoly guy that was my favorite
scene in that whole movie do we wanna I don't
even know anything about the animated series
or Ace Ventura jr. do you want to talk about
that a little bit no I'll talk about it a little
bit I I don't remember that much about the animated
series I remember watching it in just about every
episode it had well I mean every episode it had
Ace and then just about every episode it had
Spike his faithful monkey from the first film
which amazingly they left out in this film this
was one of those you know as much as I you know
pander this movie and just just totally not acknowledge
that it even exists This movie was pretty easily
the worst handled sequel ever seen Yeah, I mean
well part of it was ace or not ace Jerry Co -wrote
this With the guy yeah that directed it So that's
part of where the issue lies Part of it was I
think he was trying to kill it so that he wouldn't
have to come back from for another one. They
tried to just do what he wanted to do in this
one and then just be done with it. Well, you
know, honestly, you know, outside of what little
humor people see in this film, you know, honestly,
why didn't he just say no? I mean, you know,
there's a bunch of actors nowadays that, you
know, are, you know, approached for roles or
whatever and they'll say no to it. You know,
it's... You know whatever, but you know it was
the 90s, and he was just you know launching his
career So whatever I didn't really have a choice,
but at the same time he did it just He he did
I think a good job in wrapping up the series
for the most part And then I think the movie
studios got kind of greedy Yeah, decided because
you know this is almost ten years later. They
decide How can we rehash the past and they've
been wanting to make a new ace but couldn't get
ace, you know Jim Carrey to come on So they're
like how can we do this? Oh, yeah, we'll do his
kid Well, you know, that's the thing nowadays,
you know, there's no way he would return to ace
no way No, he's too established now to even return
to that kind of comedy Yeah, like he will you'll
never see him do another liar liar. You'll never
see him do Another you know dumb and dumber the
closest he's come to liar liar was yes, man Hmm
or yes, man Where yeah, he's a no man, and then
he goes to all yes. You know everything and then
Basically just goes right back to it. You know
He becomes a weird -ass throughout that movie
yeah But yeah, I I couldn't see him ever returning
to this kind of film. Mm -hmm. But yeah, Ace
Ventura Jr., it's that show. Like I said, it's
not that bad. I would rather watch that over
watching the Dumb and Dumber and Son of the mask.
Oh, yeah, we'll definitely at some point I have
liar liar So we'll definitely at some point review
that and we'll definitely at some point do the
original dumb and dumber but as far as the remakes
and the quote -unquote sequels fuck those Well
is I can see as long as they were good, you know
good sequels or remakes. I Mean, we can probably
mention them when we do eventually those You
know the the liar liar and the dumb and dumber
we can mention, you know, and well, it's really
in dumb and dumber It's not really a liar liar
because I mean there isn't really a sequel to
that But like we can mention dumber dumb and
dumber, but I will never watch that film Yeah,
I I Watch dumb and dumber but that's not a film
I can watch all the time Well, no. I mean, it's
one of those one -time deals. And my favorite,
I died. And I know we're getting off topic here,
but I died laughing. And I know I shouldn't laugh
at this, but the champagne cork to the owl. Oh.
Just the way they made the effect. Oh, in the
first, or the Dumb and Dumber? Yeah. It goes,
woo! And then it's gone. Yeah. Yeah. And then
it's gone. But you know it's just one of those
things where you know it carries comedy you have
to take it or leave it and With ace one I can
take it with ace two like I've said before dying
a fire That's why I disagree with you I like
the film that had a lot of comedy bits granted
it was dirty But it was extremely dirty you couldn't
You couldn't clean this up with the scripts.
Well, it's not as bad as some of the stuff now.
Now they just blatantly show everything. I mean,
it could just show the front of Ace when he got
up out of the Rhino. Here, look at my dick. You
know, I mean, they didn't go that far, so I mean,
I can let them go on that. Yeah, but, you know,
still, it's just one of those things where, meh.

we've been coexisting quite nicely with the native
cultures for the past 200 years. They're almost
like family at this point. Are they? It is imperative
that we recover the sacred animal. If not, the
peaceable Wachatis will assuredly be obliterated.
The Wachutus are bloodthirsty. They consider
its disappearance both an insult and a curse.
Do I have something in my teeth? Ah, it can be.
Lovely brunch, I must say. Quinn, I'd like you
to meet Ace Vento. This is Burton Quinn. He owns
and operates Quinlan Safari Park. Most call me
Quinn. Say hello, Tinky. Pleasure, Tinky. Corpus
corax, common raven, smartest of all birds. Where
are these parts? Excuse me. That's quite a wrap
you're wearing. Perhaps I could get you some
fluffy new slippers made from the heads of innocent
and defenseless baby seals. Who is this ghastly
man? Ace Ventura, Pet Detective. And you must
be the Monopoly Guy. Hey. Another activist, Maguire.
Activist, yes. Activist, yes. Mr. Ventura, there's
nothing wrong with enjoying the fruits of nature.
You should try it sometime. Alrighty then. You
know something? You're right. La, la, la... It's
lovely, but I fancy myself an autumn. If you've
quite finished, Mr. Ventura, we might make for
the projection room in Greenwall. Kooky. Mr.
Ventura, I'd like you to meet Hitu, chief of
tribal security in the province. Please! The
Wachati are a peaceful people. They find all
forms of life sacred. I like them already. Bambawea
tuna. Bambawea tuna. Hi there, nice to see you.
Bumblebee tuna? Bumblebee tuna! Ace Ventura,
Pet Detective. How are you this afternoon? Alrighty
then. Excuse me. Your balls are showing. Bumblebee
tuna? They have lived in the same state for thousands
of years. They did not know about disease until
the white man came What type of battery talking
about here the great white bat of course Yes,
