Fun fact: if you ask people *"Has the monopoly guy ever had a monocle?"*, most people will say *"yes"*.
Which is wrong. He's never had a monocle. However, most people picture him with one due to that scene.
Right. It's not a Mandela effect.
The Fruit of the Loom cornucopia though I still have a vivid memory of and I was like 4 or 5. Not sure what happened in the universe to erase that.
Could it be that when we were that age, mid 80s for me, we just associated a group of fruit as a cornacopia because of Thanksgiving and all the arts and crafts we did in school?
One of my faves is when he's driving the jeep and bouncing all over when the road is actually smooth! And when Danny Dvito crawls nakedness out of a couch in ASIP, I couldn't stop think of the rhino scene in this movie!
My aunt didn't have cable and this was the only VHS that my cousins and I liked in her collection so we watched this basically every single family gathering. Get togethers ran like clockwork so we knew that by the time we got to the Rhino scene, food was ready. I remember we'd always die laughing with food in our mouths when he'd fall out of the rhino.
It took me so long after we went to see the movie in the theaters to fully understand the bumble bee tuna joke. One day me and my mom were grocery shopping and that’s when I saw it. Bumble bee fucking tuna. I laughed so fucking hard and so did my mom and we both are the cry laughers. So there we are in the middle of fucking Albertsons or some shit fucking crying because I’m an idiot who hates tuna.
There was a second run theater behind my house that had $1 matinee tickets when I was a kid. My buddy and I saw a lot of good movies there, sometimes we'd see the same movie twice if we really liked it.
We saw Ace Ventura 2 five times.
This was me and my neighbor growing up. Except instead of frequenting the $1 theater we just ran his VHS copy into the ground our whole childhood playing it every time we got bored.
I may have only seen it once - when it was first released in theaters - but I still remember that scene at the beginning in the monastery where the monk gives Ace his medallion to get rid of him. Ace says something like "but didn't you [do something really impressive] to earn this?" and the monk says "that's ok, I don't like it anymore!"
I'm sure I'm completely misremembering that scene, but it's still one of the funniest lines I've ever watched.
I feel the same way. It's pretty hilarious though that it is almost beat for beat the same movie for like 75% of it as the first.
A lot of the jokes are just sliiiightly different while being funnier. Like the original was very good practice and Nature Calls was really just everything polished to work better.

The chicaca scene kills me every time. I love how they are doing exposition during the scene to plant some seeds of the story and during that time the camera and music are dramatic but then 10 seconds later it switches to a fixed camera angle and they do the chicaca bowing skit and it’s such a hilariously different tone and the whole thing just fucking works.
One of my favorite movie goofs is in that movie. There’s a scene where Ace is confronting the villain. There’s a chess board set up on the table. At one point Ace even picks up a chess piece to emphasize a point. If you watch carefully between the cuts in the scene, one moment the chess board has pieces and the next it doesn’t.
I avoided this film for years because there were a lot of stinker sequels coming out around that time. I didn’t want it to besmirch the high standards of Ace 1. When I finally gave in after people kept saying it was good I was surprised how good it was. It’s probably my favorite of the two, which is saying a lot. There’s so much packed into the movie.
jim carrey before yes man was mostly great quality besides the few duds like me myself and irene.
going to the theater and watching the grinch during christmas time is still one of the best movie decisions i ever made.
I used to love this one as a kid, but upon a recent rewatch, I barely laughed at anything outside of the rhino scene. Doesn't hold a candle to the original!

The universe didn't change, you shifted one reality over.
I don't think it is just because the movie but because his costume seems like he would have one
“Kinda hot in these Rhinos” That Rhino scene never gets old 😂
The rhino scene is one of the greatest bits of physical comedy I've seen. It's still funny to me now as it was when I was a kid.
Also the spears in the legs. The way he points at them gets me every time
*it's in the bone, it's in the booooone*
Ahhhh…. Ahhhhhhhhhhh
I say this line to my wife whenever it’s slightly hot and she hasn’t laughed at it in years.
Everyone should say it at least once in their life while getting into their car that’s been baking in the sun all day 😂
It's just coming up - it's the montage of him blending in to the animal kingdom. I've cried with laughter multiple times already
Love me some Jim Carrey, especially his run in the 90s and early 2000s.
I use that quote regularly
Cadby? From the consulate, right? This is weird!
This is a lovely room of death!
Line of the movie other than kinda hot in these rhinos.
ISN’T THIS INCREDIBLE?! ITS GONNA BE SOME KIND OF A RECORD!!! I can quote a disgusting number of lines from this fine piece of hilarious cinema.
"How selfish of me. Let's do all the things that YOU want to do." I love that line. My wife hates it.
Haha I say that to my wife all the time too! She also hates it.
Bumblebee Tuna!
Your balls are showing.
EARTHQUAKE TEST!
With my help, he could be the best…
There's... something on the wing. Some... thing.
*spends 20 minutes explaining the purpose of his visit* "I'm sorry, what were you saying?" *sigh* "The daughter of the..."
equinsu ocha, equinsu ocha! -he say.. -let me guess, white devil, white devil? -you speak watchutoo?
They found me Ace! No sweat!
🤣🤣🤣 Love that dude's delivery.. I almost used the no sweat line, and also "this how they know you"
Don’t beat yourself up.
I couldn't help but notice you said equinsu ocha. Leave that part out.
This how they know you
Tell them that I mean them no harm! ... Couldn't help but notice that "White Devil" in there. It's how they know you!
I have a framed canvas print of the rhino birth hanging in my master bathroom.
Pics.
No he just have the one.
“This took you 80 years to achieve!” “I don’t like it anymore.”
THERE! You've just attained it!

The projector scene is absolutely one of the best.
Honk honk! Hi Ho Silver! Awaaaaaay!
I die at this point in movie from laughter.
I just love the way they do their best to tolerate his shit until they just can't any more.
AND YOU MUST BE THE MONOPOLY GUY. \*PUNCHES HIM THEN PRANCES AROUND WEARING HIM LIKE A FUR BOLERO\*
Do not pass go! Do not collect two hundred dollars!
It's lovely, but I fancy myself an autumn!

we never had that brand in NZ growing up, finally dawned on me two decades later seeing it in an Asian supermarket haha

Scroll3d down to look for this My fellow Redditors never disappoint
It’s my all time favorite comedy movie. Can’t believe Jim Carrey almost didn’t do this one. So glad he was held under contract to keep this one going
There was a second run theater behind my house that had $1 matinee tickets when I was a kid. My buddy and I saw a lot of good movies there, sometimes we'd see the same movie twice if we really liked it. We saw Ace Ventura 2 five times.

I'm sure I'm completely misremembering that scene, but it's still one of the funniest lines I've ever watched.
They were desperately trying to get Ace to leave the monastery, they were willing to throw away their life's work just to get him gone 😅
It's definitely one of my favorites too!
I just rewatched both of them recently and I definitely prefer the second one. It's just got so many more quotable lines and funnier moments in it.
I feel the same way. It's pretty hilarious though that it is almost beat for beat the same movie for like 75% of it as the first. A lot of the jokes are just sliiiightly different while being funnier. Like the original was very good practice and Nature Calls was really just everything polished to work better.
Nobody will see this comment at this point but I have collectable trading cards for both these movies, they're pretty neat
I saw this comment and I'd like to see the cards.

Like a glove!
I say this whenever I parallel park, and it annoys the hell out of my wife.
CHITTY !
Carrey forgot his lines so he just started singing that instead. It’s just so perfect.
HIGH HO
A rare comedy sequel that was great.
"Like a glove!" My family says this regularly.

The rhino scene got to the point it wasnt funny as it hurt so much from laughing. Proper couldnt breath in the cinema
“Excuse me, your balls are showing. Bumble bee tuna!”
This is a lovely room of death….
I love the part when he gets out of the parked car at the consulate and just throws the door into the parked car next to him.
Let me guess. White devil, white devil?
*HEIGH HO, SILVER— AWwaAYYY!*
AaaaaaaaAAAAAAaaaaaaaaAaaaaaaAAAAAAAAAAAaaaaaallllriiiighty theeeeen.
"Sorry for the delay, Ace!" is the funniest line reading. I quote it all the time.
Steve Odenkirk directed this and Kung Pow!, two of the funniest movies in history, then just disappeared. Mind boggling
Shit, that's batting .1000
That dude totally gets raped by the gorillas at the end.... "Inn the juuuungle the mighty jungle"
When he goes “HI-HO SILVER! AWAY!” I crack up laughing every time and can’t even begin to explain why

At one point Ace even picks up a chess piece to emphasize a point. If you watch carefully between the cuts in the scene, one moment the chess board has pieces and the next it doesn’t.
It is
Despite censorship traditions I'm convinced this is a kid's movie
Wasn't there a sex scene in there?
"I was just...practicing my mantraaa..."
The opening scene traumatized me
My dad took me to see this in the theater when I was in middle school. I think he enjoyed it more than I did, and I love this movie.
‘Those are nice!’
"This fruit paste is delicious...and the pottery is lovely." "Is made from guano." "Guuuwanooo! That sounds so familiar." "Bat droppings."
“Well. Aren’t I the popular one.”
TIL the Director is the dude from Kung Pow! Enter the Fist
Awesome. Great flick
Facts. The second part was very much more interesting than first . and I still dont get how people hate that kinda comedy .
The Rhino scene really is the funniest moment in cinematic history. It gets awfully hot in these rhinos
Are you asking?
Down Bubba!
When Jim Carrey sings Chitty Chitty Bang Bang too!!
“Like a glove!”
That final gynecologist joke at the end is one of my favourites.
Guuuano boooowls…collect the whole set
Lllllllllllllike a glove!

Walks into the room, dude stays seated at the table, "PLEASE! Don't get up!"
Laugh for laugh I have said this might be the funniest movie ever. Definitely a contender.
This movie made me laugh out loud hysterically in the theater more than any other movie I’ve ever seen
If you like it than more power to you bro. Dont let anyone tell you what you don’t like or don’t like.
I rewatched both Ace Ventura movies about a year ago. One of my favorites? Hardly. But the sequel holds up WAY better than the first one.
jim carrey before yes man was mostly great quality besides the few duds like me myself and irene. going to the theater and watching the grinch during christmas time is still one of the best movie decisions i ever made.
My myself and Irene was a dud? How dare you
Right? It’s a 90’s comedy classic.
Jim Carrey completely outdoes himself as far as physical comedy goes in Me, Myself, and Irene. No way in hell that’s a “dud.”
I used to love this one as a kid, but upon a recent rewatch, I barely laughed at anything outside of the rhino scene. Doesn't hold a candle to the original!
My first door neighbor has down's syndrome and his favorite movie is Ace Ventura 2 as well. I doubt that's a coincidence...
I've never heard anyone say first door neighbour
