In light of Oscar-reminded comics who've been MUCH better at serious roles (i.e. Will Farrell in Stranger Than Fiction and Jack Black in King Kong), I'm willing to give Jim Carrey a shot at this. In fact, he's already proved himself to be a fine seriouser actor in Eternal Sunshine ..., so I will avoid his comedies like the plague, but give anything halfway serious he's in half a chance.
