What are you talking about? Comedians rarely win out over traditionally dramatic actors. Also when people speak of "Hollywood" as a monolith, it sounds so small town middle of fucking nowhere.
@@Tyradiusgreat early movie of his. I loved 90’s Jim Carrey. In living color, ace Ventura, the mask, dumb and dumber, liar liar. Every year it was awesome to see the new Jim Carrey movie. He even made the third Batman movie fun abd that’s the worst movie ever made haha. He got a little stale after the early 2000’s but still love him yo this day
Jim always reminded me of Robin Williams. Always trying to make people laugh. He was always ON. He doesn’t just accept an award - it’s a whole performance. Any opportunity to make people laugh. Humanity is gifted with people that just want to make others laugh. We don’t have enough of them!
Both did standups for a long time in the Comedy Store Club. Although not the same time, I’m sure Jim had found a lot of influence there and lots of stories to tell, which at the and also inspired him to produce “I’m dying up here” ( which sadly got canceled way too early.. what a shame). So, both shared at least some same path to an acting career.
This man is seriously from the highest dimension of being yourself, nobody is as open and expressive as this Godly legend. This could be so depressing to others that this man is full of life. You can't hate this man, from the point of looking at the people nowadays. He is very straight forward.
He himself has also ungerdone several bouts of depression, making him darker and darker and away from the world of comedy. As a massive fan, I thought as he ages he will keep making people smile more like Chaplin did till the end but....
Side note on the MTV awards: Courtney Love was talking to Jim before the show and didnt even know it was him. She said, "That make up is great, I had no idea that was Jim Carrey, I thought it was some dude I slept with back on the 80's"😅
I love the way he balances between serious and silly, goofy and greatness - intelligent humour and physically too! His impressions are amazing (Clint Eastwood and David Caruso).
You have to admit Jim Carrey was really daring, got away with the things he said and still got the audience to laugh. Other actors would get in trouble saying half of the things he said. He has the magic and the charisma.
Your name is “Cynic” which means (a person who believes that people are motivated purely by self-interest rather than acting for honorable or unselfish reasons) So, in other words, you are nihilistic (life is meaningless) because you think meaning comes from nothing. But I tell you, you are wrong, humans are NOT motivated by self interest because we all have good and evil (right and wrong) instilled in all of our hearts. And that is GOD
Jim Carrey… wow…. Not just a one-in-a-century comedian, but obviously a brilliant mind, kind hearted, highly intelligent… too intelligent for most people and for the show biz… Wow… if only there were more like him the world (and Hollywood) would be amazing places that just uplift your spirit!! ❤❤❤ love from a fellow Canadian 🇨🇦
@@craigpettifer8568 Harvey had been known about way before the scandal finally showed up in the public. A lot of actors and actresses knew what a scum bag he was before the rest of the world did.
@@OttoByOgraffey There's no shortage of skirt-chasers in Hollywood; Harvey was just one, and the oligarchs sacrificed him -- a scapegoat. You're not supposed to know about the others.
@Twilightzone-rw5kn wow it's like almost like people are different and have different tastes. Sooner or later yall will understand I hope. But millions of people disagrees.
Jim knows how Hollywood works. That's why my heart aches with him on these award shows. Even tho he generated hundreds of millions of dollars, he was branded as a jester, and they don't give oscars to them. They'll give oscars to teenage girls for just playing their sassy self, but Jim playing a wide variety of roles and carrying movies by himself, never got the approval he deserved.
They definitely don't give comedic actors awards! I mean, except Robin Williams, Tom Hanks, Jackie Gleason, Art Carney, Mary Tyler Moore, Whoopi Goldberg, Lily Tomlin, Will Smith...
Oscars award men in their late 40s or 50s who deserve it for their work in their early 30s but weren’t considered ready for one by the snobby academy. When did they award teenage girls? Aside from like 13 year old Anna Paquin
Jim isn’t the only person that win’s but the audiences win’s as well. He provides such a beautiful speech. No other celebrity puts on a performance at an award like Jim Carrey.
I agree with Jim being a genius and wholeheartedly disagree with the Jerry Lewis part, with Lewis I just never understood his comedy nor did I think he was in any way funny, my humble opinion.
I think that from a purely comedic standpoint, when people see you and everyone starts smiling and laughing before you say a word, that's one way you know you've made it
the footage from the MTV Awaards...is probably the best "award speech" Ive ever seen...and because its HIM, he could've pulled the same shenanigans at the Oscars, and gotten away with it. The crowd reaction would've been the same, too.
You know, sometimes I really have to put things into context. Im a 98' baby, and seeings these old clips from the 90s makes my life make more sense. What a beautifully weird decade. Also probably opened to door to a lot of horrific things as well, but you gotta appreciate it for what it was, because its just history now.
The last decade before internet and social media took off. I think humanity had just the right balance of exposure and media. The arts, information, and news spread at a healthy rate. Now theirs too much of it and social media has influenced our population so I think we steered off into a different direction.
Cracking up watching these in bed. That man really is a treasure. He has the heart the comedy the sensitivity and creativity to do it all ❤ You can tell everyone just genuinely love him because he’s just himself.
My two favorite actors and comedians as a kid and young adult, Will and Jim. It is a shame they never got to be leading men in the same movie together in their primes.
I will always enjoy Jim Carrey!!!!! He is one of the most talented actors and comedians ever to walk this beautiful planet. He is honest and obviously very happy to share his talents with all of us!!!! 🙏🙏🙏🙏
