"Dumb & Dumber" Sequel Gets Official Title!

Bobby and Peter Farrelly have finally made some sense out of these rumours of the on/off/on/off/on again "Dumb & Dumber" sequel. They have announced via their Twitter that the script for the sequel is nearly finished and filming should be happening soon. They also confirmed the title for the next film. It's under the new title of "Dumb & Dumber To".

"Dumb & Dumber 2" Plot Details!

While promoting their UK release of "The Three Stooges", Digital Spy got a chance to ask Bobby Farrelly about the possible plot for the on/off/on again "Dumb & Dumber" sequel.
Here's the interview direct from Digital Spy,

What’s the current status of the Dumb and Dumber sequel?

“It’s definitely something we’ve been hoping for a long time. We always wanted to get the two original guys Jim Carrey and Jeff Daniels back together and see what they’re up to. Now it’s almost 20 years after the original and the other guys are in a point in their career where they had so much fun the first time that they’re willing to do it. We will make this movie.”

Are you still hoping to shoot next year?

“We were hoping to shoot it very soon – this fall – but that didn’t come to pass because of scheduling conflicts. Jeff has a successful TV show over here now so we have to work around that. We are planning on shooting it this coming spring and hopefully it will be out by next fall. That’s the plan and that will be our next movie, we’ve already written the script. We’re very anxious to get back in business with those two guys.”

Are you able to give us any hints about the storyline? Have Lloyd and Harry had a lucky break yet after missing that bikini bus?

“I can tell you that there is no growth out of either one of them and it’s 20 years later. What is funny about the original is that they’re grown men who are complete losers and when the studio came to us about a sequel, we were like, ‘Loads of kids are losers and they’re dumb.’ We didn’t see any value in the sequel so we backed out of it, but now these guys are in regular life and they’re still basically children at heart. The story revolves around the fact that one of them may have sired a child. They want to go and find the child because he’s having a kidney problem and he wants to ask him for one of his kidneys.”

After reading the interview above, it sounds like very good news for the sequel. It may just happen after all.

"Dumb & Dumber" Sequel Still A Maybe?

Jeff Daniels recently spoke to Hollywood.com about the possibilities of the highly-anticipated "Dumb & Dumber" sequel going back into production again. He confirmed that fellow dumby Jim Carrey had left the project a few weeks back, but now it seems it might just happen.
Here's what he told Hollywood.com, 

“We almost were able to kinda get it done this year, but they’re still working on the script. Jim wants to do it, I want to do it, the Farrellys want to do it… We’re all hoping that it’ll come together early next year.”

"Dumb & Dumber" Sequel No More!

That's it! It's all over before it even started! The planned "Dumb & Dumber" titled "Dumber & Dumber To" is according to Jim Carrey a "no-brainer". Carrey has left the project saying that the studio behind the upcoming direct sequel to the 1994 comedy classic have "showed a lack of ethusiasm regarding the project".
Filming for the sequel was set to begin later this year, but by the looks of it now, it ain't happening unless the studio try their fucking hardest in getting Carrey back on board.
It's quite sad that the sequel isn't happening anymore, because I was really looking forward to seeing Jim Carrey and Jeff Daniels together again as Lloyd and Harry.
