10 out of 10 for the sequel to Dumb and Dumber's new name: Dumb and Dumber To. Bravo. Helmed by the Farrelly Brothers, the movie's title was just confirmed by the duo on Twitter.
"You also might be interested to know that we are almost done with the Dumb and Dumber To (sic) script...I think you're going to like it." Well lads, unless it has lines as good as 'We got no food, no jobs... our PETS' HEADS ARE FALLING OFF!' and 'I thought the Rocky Mountains would be a little rockier than this', 'Yeah, that John Denver is full of shit, man', then you may be in trouble. I for one am nervous for the follow up to a movie that was so good, its brilliance should be preserved; Dumb and Dumber To has an awful lot to live up to.
The only thing that makes me worry less is knowing that Jim Carrey and Jeff Daniels will both reprise their roles; nothing else would do. Carrey's not had much luck lately with his movie choices so here's hoping a return to Lloyd and his little boy haircut will serve to reinforce his position in the upper echelons of Hollywood comedy.
As for the storyline? Well apparently the sequel centres on the pair's search for their long-lost child who they need for a kidney transplant. No doubt, all kinds of hilarity will ensue. Dumb and Dumber To should begin production in the Spring of 2013.
Whatever way it turns out, one thing's for sure; it'll erradicate all memory of 2003's Dumb and Dumberer: When Harry Met Lloyd, a movie for which no original cast or crew were involved. Let's just pretend it never happened. Agreed?
