Jim Carrey recounts first time meeting Tommy Lee Jones:
>"I walked into a restaurant the night before our big scene in The Riddler's lair and [Tommy was there]. I went up to say hi and the blood drained from his face, in such a way that I realized that I had become the face of his pain. He got up, kind of shaking, hugged me and said 'I hate you. I really don't like you.' And I was like 'Wow, ok. Well, what's going on man?' And he said, 'I cannot sanction your buffoonery.' He did not want to work with me."
Why is Tommy so based?

It's like he knew ahead of time what a trainwreck Jim would become.

Assholes. TLJ was even campier and more cringy than Carrey in that abomination of a movie.

ftfy
Superhero movies are the absolute bottom of movies. Even porn has more artistic merit.

Not OP but Howard Stern, when he asked Carrey about the rumors of on-set conflict between him and Tommy.
Carrey believes a lot of it is because Dumb and Dumber came out the same week as Cobb. DAD went on to insane levels of financial success while Cobb TANKED.
Jones had an interview on Australian tv once that was just terrible
He was like a deer caught in headlights
He sat there solid as a rock
Barely speaking
Monosyllabic answers

Al Gore was his roommate. Gore's droning voice must have broken Lee's sanity.

Now, please, greentext Carrey's sobby life story and you'll see what a sad jerk TLJ was to him.

A lot loyalty for a hired actor.

all the boss coffee commercials are strung together with one story line.
TLJ is an alien assigned to study the habits of earthlings and takes the appearance of TLJ for some unspecified reason. This alien works a different low paying job like window cleaner or janitor in each different commercial. After his time researching he boards a spaceship to go home but on the journey he misses Boss Coffee so much he comes back to earth and decides to live working odd jobs.
There are over 20 commercials in all and pretty well done.
