Technically, it's a prequel instead of a sequel--not that it really matters! Just be aware that Jim Carrey and Jeff Daniels are NOT starring in this movie!
Jimbo is right. When I saw the teaser a month or two ago in the theatre, it didn't show any acting. We all thought Carrey and Daniels again, but I looked up the film at IMDB. When Harry Met Lloyd: Dumb and Dumberer (2003) Directed by Troy Miller Writing credits Robert Brenner Tom Gammill Tagline: A New Bread of Idiots. The Evolution of Dumb. Before the first movie, there was high school Plot Outline: 1. Set back in the 80s when Harry met Lloyd in high school where they cross paths with a mean principal and a bunch of other outcasts much like themselves. OR 2. Set in 1986 when best friends Harry (Olsen) and Lloyd (Richardson) were teenagers, this is the madcap comic tale of their attempt to get out of the "special needs" department and into regular high school life. Either way the movies sounds well, er, dumb. Credited cast: Eric Christian Olsen .... Lloyd Christmas Derek Richardson .... Harry Dunne Luis Guzmán .... School Janitor Eugene Levy .... Principal Collins Rachel Nichols .... Jessica Mimi Rogers .... Harry's Mom The trailer was goofy. I've never seen the original and have NO intention of seeing the new film.
Nothing can beat the original...I absolutely love that movie...Very, Very Funny!...A memorable line "How'd He Know I have Gas?"...
The trailer is now up. Get ready to.. um, still not want to see this. http://www.apple.com/trailers/newline/dumb_and_dumberer/trailer/
