    Jeff Daniels Promises He'll Be "Dumber" Again

    Put aside your admiration or disdain for Jim Carrey and remember there are those independent from him, his recent actions and statements who are affected. Like Jeff Daniels in Dumb & Dumber To.

    The ten year-old me devoured everything Lloyd Christmas back in the mid 90s. The "adult" iteration of yours truly still laughs at Carrey in his prime but marvels at Daniels as Harry, the other half of the dim-witted duo. Always hear actors talk about how comedy is a harder feat than drama. Guess it would take a dramatic actor like Daniels to put the work (little looks, thought process, mannerisms, etc.) to make us believe he really is that stupid.

    My reservations of recapturing that magic aside, if there’s any reason to want to see the sequel, it's for Jeff Daniels. He recently appeared on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon and confirmed everything is set to go for this September. That would seem a tall-order (We're in the middle of July after all). But films can, and are when need be, assembled post haste and there was nothing but assurance in his voice.
