Nostalgia usually doesn't work on me, but bringing back 1990s Jim Carrey to be in the Sonic movies is laser targeted at 10-year-old me and totally works.

Actors say this shit all the time, particularly when they know they're a critical character in the middle of an unfinished successful series. I wish I could just tell my boss I'm retiring then come back a week later just to do the work I was always planning on doing after my boss wrote a check for $10 million.

He did the same thing in Ace Ventura 2.

"i am now a child of light. Your earthly money holds no appeal to me."

"Twenty thousand dollars."

"Re-he-he-eally?!"

Something has got to pay for his paint addiction

Everybody comes back when you back a big enough truck full of money into their driveway.

At least Carrey is being picky about what he does. I wanted another season of Kidding, but I understand if he’s done playing dark roles.

A damn shame that he's an anti-vaxxer. A damn shame.

I don't like the movies he's in, but I respect what he's doing - cinematic shitposting.

He also obviously got to write his own lines. He insisted on either that or explicit Robotnik/Stone (true story source go do your own research).

I don't know about you but that seems a good reason to un-retire.

It’s pretty on-brand for Jim Carrey though.

As much as I loved him in the Sonic movies I really hope they don't bring him back for number four. He's died twice now but that second one was actually a really good death.

I misread the headline as “this section of jimmy carters Wikipedia article” and was so confused

I wonder if you could go back to him when he got his start on that TV show with the Wayans brothers and told him that he would enter playing Dr. Robotnik in the Sonic movie what he would think.

He seems to enjoy doing sonic. So good for him getting paid to do it
