      What happened in Ace Ventura Pet Detective?

          Not to mention Ace Ventura’s too-long scene of showering, burning his clothes, using a plunger to make himself throw up etc. So you kissed someone you didn’t know was trans, grow up.

            I mean, it’s technically the police force’s fault for being so “into” her in the first place.

          Not defending the joke, but they were dry heaving because it’s implied that she made out with everyone on the police force, including Ace. Thinking about it that’s actually worse. Huh.

            Having not seen the scene until recently by coincidence, based on the description, I thought it was more like an “incels can’t handle this” joke, but then saw it and saw it was used as the smoking gun for an embarrassing guilty verdict. It definitely has “this movie director has an axe to grind” vibes.

        Practically the whole movie is a trans joke. I rewatched it years ago and was so bummed out.

          My reaction anytime I watch something with Jim Carrey. He was like a fad we just keep now for the novelty, no offense to him.

      I never got the puking scene at the end of Ace Ventura as a kid. I still don’t really do. Always loved that movie but that is just too much.

        It’s an homage (or whatever you would call it) to The Crying Game iirc.

        I thought it was implying that all of those men had made out with her.
