The Mask (1994)
If you were born in the late ‘80s or early ‘90s, you idolized Jim Carrey at some point. In second grade, my class received an assignment to write a biography on our favorite Canadian sports athlete. I didn’t have one so I asked the teacher if I could do mine on Jim Carrey (he was born in Ontario). Four of my classmates asked the same thing. Carrey’s big break was Ace Ventura: Pet Detective but that film has aged so dreadfully its finale is unwatchable – even if you keep in mind it was made 30 years ago. A much better way to indulge your nostalgia for the comedian is to revisit Dumb and Dumber or today's movie: The Mask.
Insecure bank teller Stanley Ipkiss (Carey) finds a magical mask in the Edge City river. After putting it on, the mask transforms him into a green-faced, zoot suit-wearing extrapolation of his inner self. With his newfound powers and confidence, Ipkiss gets even with those who’ve wronged him and romances Tina Carlyle (Cameron Diaz), the beautiful singer at the exclusive Coco Bongo club. In the process, he crosses paths with gangster Dorian Tyrell (Peter Greene). There have been several attempts to make a live-action Looney Tunes film, none as successful at bringing the series’ violent slapstick sense of humor to life as The Mask (and with Coyote vs. Acme being shelved by David Zaslav, that won't change anytime soon). Putting on the mask does more than alter Ipkiss’ appearance and give him the confidence to say and do what he’s always wanted to; it allows him to pull giant mallets out of thin air, survive explosions, re-inflate himself after being flattened, move so fast he looks like a spinning tornado, etc. Jim Carrey excels at playing loud, outlandish catchphrase-spewing characters, making this superhero origin story (the film is based on the Dark Horse comic by Mike Richardson) the perfect vehicle for him. He also fares quite well as lovable loser Stanley Ipkiss. He has great chemistry with the most memorable character in the film: Ipkiss’ dog, Milo. As far as movie pets go, there aren’t many who have as much personality as this adorable, occasionally aggressive, mischievous and deceptively smart (for a dog) Jack Russell Terrier. The pooch may not have a character arc, but its multiple gags build upon each other and Milo plays a critical part in the story. If you expected me to name Cameron Diaz as the co-star with whom Carrey has the best rapport, I’m getting to her now. The two actors have chemistry but they don't quite sizzle like they should. Or maybe it’s that Diaz (in her film debut) is so stunning that a part of you dismisses any sparks between them – she should be with you. After donning the mask, Stanley howls like the wolf in 1943's “Red Hot Riding Hood” while he watches her perform at the Coco Bongo. You’ll be right there along with him. Seeing her, you remember the first time you saw Marilyn Monroe. All you can say is “Wow!”, which makes you all the more grateful to see that she can keep up with the dance numbers and comedic sequences. As a memorable aspect of the film, she’s got stiff competition between Carrey, the dog and the special effects but she nonetheless stands out. The Mask is a pretty standard superhero story that’s elevated by its willingness to go all the way with its cartoon motif, the unforgettable one-liners and memorable characters. On top of everyone previously mentioned, there’s Lieutenant Mitch Kellaway (Peter Riegert), the police officer who suspects Ipkiss – even though no ordinary man could pull off the moves he pulls -, his dopey partner Detective Doyle (Jim Doughan) and several big scenes that will stick with you long after the film is gone. Partially because they are funny but also because they showcase the film’s use of music, dance and cartoon logic. Special effects can often date a picture. Even if those are still (mostly) convincing, jokes that haven’t aged well can make you regret you ever hit "play". The Mask makes extensive use of special effects. They still hold up. When it comes to the jokes, the film does it right. There is a point where a mask-wearing Ipkiss starts turning into a Pepe Le Pew type… but the fact that he’s too much and that his overly aggressive would-be romantic gestures make Tina uncomfortable are both acknowledged and part of the gag.
I must’ve seen The Mask over a dozen times as a kid (mostly in French and on VHS) but that was years ago. I thought I only remembered the broad strokes but nearly everything came flooding back as soon as I started watching. Part of that I can attribute to repetition but also to the fact that this comedy is packed with memorable scenes, lines and characters. It holds up. (October 5, 2024)

If any of you follow me or have seen my recent reblogs. That I have been reblogging a lot of The Mask related stuff. It’s something really interested me. And I think I like to thank @kaijuguy19 for that, however it came to be. Maybe it was also because of Jim Carrey being in Ace Ventura and me looking up the cartoon of that movie...yeah, that basically.
I need to talk about this. While I don’t want to pursue making something The Mask related. It’s something I won’t put much interest in. But maybe a little something. But the lore of The Mask has seriously intrigued me. Spoilers in case.
But one point is that The Mask itself is called the mask of Loki...now this is the serious part I want to talk about.
Recently, I’ve been wondering about Norse Mythology. I need to make it clear there is an actual religion around that. And that Norse Mythology is a very serious deal to a lot of people. Which is why I heavily dislike that Disney tried to trademark the names of certain Norse Gods. Because that should never happen.
Which is why I’m very conscious of this idea I want to do. Is the idea of using Norse Mythology in this what I think will likely be called The Mask Rebirth. Which is likely a reimagining/reboot of The Mask franchise and even an adaptation. Or just...the adaptation part is weird to say. It’s my own take on the series.
I’m mainly concerned because from what I heard, people take this mythology seriously. But there’s a reason I want to include that. I’m still a noob to this series. But from what I read, it seems like The Mask comics(Maybe) didn’t really expand on more of that Norse side of things. If there’s a reason, there’s maybe a good reason, or maybe the writers just didn’t want to.
Yes, I know about Son Of The Mask, but many disown that film and I think it’s best I just leave it. I just find it intriguing that it’s called The Mask Of Loki. It gives off this idea that(Please correct me) that Loki himself is trapped within the mask maybe...or it’s another way around it. Such as the movie saying it was a creation from Loki.
I want to reveal this part. Because these are the plans. Because my take seems to be combining elements of not only the comics, but even the 1994 film, and it’s cartoon. Including expanding on that lore possibly.
The idea in development is that after the events of Ragnarok(Not the MCU’s bullshit or whatever), after the deaths of many gods and goddesses. In this universe, some of those gods and goddesses souls possibly have been concealed in certain artifacts. One of them being The Mask Of Loki, the most well known.
All of these artifacts, whether they are masks or whatever else, contain the spirits of certain gods and goddesses.
As of now, here are possibly the confirmed ones.
Owen Heffernan: The Mask Of Loki/Big Head. Loki The God Of Mischief.
Dorian Tyrell: The Mask Of Fenrir. The giant wolf and son of Loki.
Originally, the idea was to have Dorian to have some form of artifact related to Hel. But after maybe last night or mainly today. It was decided that Fenrir would the one where he gets his powers from.
Tina Carlyle: Possibly a mask of Angrbooa. One of the wives of Loki, a giantess, and the mother of Fenrir, Jormungandr, and Hel. The mother of monsters.
Originally like Dorian, Tina was supposed to have maybe an artifact related to Hel maybe. But I wanted to do research into the...mother of Loki’s children.
In all seriousness, it was last night that I recall, and today I wanted to research some Norse Mythology. But it’s such a huge thing, and...I sound stupid saying that.
It seems like I am more interested in using Loki’s children as characters. There is also the idea of Mitch Kellaway having an artifact related to either Baldur or Thor. It all depends on what I’ll do. Or even possibly Heimdall.
I just felt like from what I know, the comics didn’t seem to explore this Norse aspect. I felt like it be cool to expand something like that. Including that I wanted to look into Norse mythology and respect that. While it seems like a weird aftermath of the Ragnarok event. Where these ancient beings did exist, and now they are stuck in these artifacts, and some having to deal with a wear they may like or not. Yet giving them powers beyond their limits.
Again, I think it was because of the events with Disney that made me worry. I am an Agnostic man mainly. And the Norse mythology has interested me. But it’s something I’m weary of touching. Yet...this is practically fan fiction. I’m not gonna do anything serious with it.
I’m thinking the reason the writers(Unless I’m wrong) didn’t do such a thing because The Mask comics wasn’t meant to have...intriguing lore. But I sound stupid. I’m sounding like a noob. I need to read more comics.
There, I revealed that. I hope you folks are interested.

Your Future Wrist Smart Phone and Watch
Would you be able to envision a future where everybody is wearing their smart telephone? It will look more like an extra than an individual tech gadget - where adornments meets tech as it were.
I realize it is fairly difficult to accept in light of the fact that it appears to be nobody wears a watch any longer. Truth be told, the costs for a pleasant Swiss Watch, bona fide variant, have descended significantly on Craigslist, look at it on the off chance that you've at any point needed one of those choice watches. OK, however what else will your future smart telephone wrist watch have the option to do? We should talk will we?
Presently at that point, Coast-to-Coast AM had an intriguing visitor, Tyrel Ventura of Buzzsaw, sign on for a meeting the evening of September 27-28, 2013 who was a remarkable scheme scholar without a doubt, particularly when he expressed in such countless words, while examining a new Lost Episode of Conspiracy Theory; " on the fate of the TSA (Transportation Security Administration) and some terrifying taser wristbands they are prepared to convey."
All things considered, these gadgets may forestall detainment facilities, for example, rather than going to jail, the courts may just allot you with a clip on smart telephone gadget, one that you can't take off and one which is water verification, indeed, we have those innovations as of now. It would screen your medication or liquor consumption, each word you ask and watch to ensure you don't do anything illicit. You are being watched. In the event that you so something incorrectly, it will stun you very much like a canine stunner choker keeping the canine from leaving the yard.
You may say "indeed, I get it," I saw that Science Fiction Movie as well. Right, and now all the innovation is accessible. Around evening time you'd be required to plug into the divider while you rest to re-energize the gadget, and ensure there was sufficient force for taser beats in the event that you accomplish something incorrectly. At the point when your jail term is up, you could eliminate the gadget, and put on a customary individual tech wrist gadget like every other person has. Possibly, the specialists are now seeing this future - I mean what an extraordinary method to control all you people out in the public eye to serve their will - amazing right?
Indeed, so make certain to purchase a smart telephone wrist watch with every one of the most recent highlights, and wear it any place you go, so our specialists will consistently know. Ouch! Kindly consider this and think on how the fate of this innovation may turn out badly later on.

I received a Private Message earlier but my response won’t format into the message box in a legible way so I’m going to post my response here. To protect the person who messaged me, while I will quote their words I will omit their blog url.
Their message:
I just took an interesting tour thru your tumblr. I’m curious if you research the publications you reblog? I’m surprised, given the tenor of what you usually reblog, to see multiple items from The Hill. Are you not aware that that publication is a conservative, Republican mouthpiece with strong white supremacy ties? Not far from Fox in its readership, actually. Clearly you’re not a Biden fan, which I can understand. My guess is you’ve thrown your support to Sanders. I’m sorry for your/that loss. I caution you against letting your grief be manipulated by the hiding-in-plain-sight trolls at The Hill. Peace
I actually pay attention to the videos. I agree that the print version of The Hill has a reputation as a right wing rag, but since her awakening, Krystal (formerly a centrist Democrat) has reflected the view of the left in her criticism of the Democratic Party. Saagar, although coming from a right wing perspective often has some insight that bolsters her case. I see them both as budding populists who, like many of us have had it up to here with both parties. The editorial control of the Hill’s Youtube channel seems about as hands-off (so far) with regard to “Rising” as RT is with Rick Sanchez, Tyrel Ventura, Redacted Tonight and the late Ed Schultz. Krystal Ball broke the Tara Reade story which mainstream corporate MSNBC and CNN were very slow to touch on.
As to Biden and Trump, there is no lesser evil there. Where Trump will gives us two right wing Supreme Court Justices, Biden will continue to expand U.S. wars of aggression. Biden, in his younger days, before he started yelling at people to “go vote for someone else,” was the more superficially affable of the two. Both Trump and Biden want to end Social Security, and they both oppose a national health service (M4All). Trump thinks climate change is a hoax and Biden still thinks we have decades to slowly lower emissions.
Unfortunately, Howie Hawkins (the Green), like Trump and Biden, seems to have diminished capacity due to age but he does reflect most of the issues I support that both Biden and Trump strongly oppose. Therefore, I consider Howie a lesser good.
As to supporting Sanders, I supported most of the issues he stood for, less so the man (although I did admire him for decades). I also support Yang’s UBI, Tulsi’s end to regime change wars, and Williamson’s Department of Peace. Bernie opposed UBI because he saw it as incompatible with his Federal Jobs program to which I add “why not both”? Bernie has recently become something of a Hawk when it comes to Venezuela and appears to support a regime change war there.
Medicare for All, an end to mass incarceration, UBI, an end to regime change wars of aggression, an end to the surveillance state, a dedicated vigorous effort to save the environment, public education through university, debt (especially student debt) forgiveness etc., will never happen under either the Republican or Democratic party. That is why no matter what, if a person acknowledges the need for those things, that person (unless they are MAGA red or Any Blue Will Do) must vote for someone other than a Democrat or Republican.
The issues superseded the personalities of the candidates.
