Ace Ventura: Not a LOOOHOOOSERRRHERRR!

After The Truman Show and Man on the Moon, Jim Carrey is back to his usual antics in his latest film, Me, Myself, and Irene.

One of the first films that revealed Carrey as one of today's great comedians was Ace Ventura: Pet Detective. Carrey is Ace Ventura, on the trail of a kidnapped dolphin, mascot of the Miami Dolphins. Here are a few quotes that made Jim Carrey and this movie truly memorable:

ACE: I have a package for you, sir.
MAN: Sounds broken.
ACE: Most likely. I bet it was something nice though.

ACE: LOOOHOOOSERRRHERRR!

ACE: Okay then. Take care now. 'Bye 'bye.

MARTHA: Pet detection is a very involved, highly scientific process.

ACE: You see, nobody's missing a porpoise. It's a dolphin that's been taken. The common Harbor Porpoise has an abrupt snout, pointed teeth, and a triangular thoracic fin, while the Bottlenose Dolphin, or Tursiops Truncatus, has an elongated beak, round, cone-shaped teeth, and a distinctive serrated dorsal appendage. But I'm sure you already knew that. That's what turns me on about you. Hey... maybe I'll give you a call sometime, lieutenant. Your number still 911? Alrighty then!

ACE: If I'm not back in five minutes...just wait longer.

CAMP: I'll have the plumbing checked immediately, Mr. Ace.
ACE: See that you do. If I'd been drinking out of the toilet, I might have been killed.

ACE: Let's take a trip to clue corner, shall we? Can anyone tell me why a man buys a lottery ticket on the day he is going to commit suicide? Or why the family pet, suffering from acute canine trauma, clawed at the bedroom door until his paws bled? How about the blood on the railing? I'll bet if we put our thinking caps on we'll see that it was the result of the struggle that took place inside this apartment while Mr. Podacter was still alive! NEXT TIME YOU DON'T HAVE A CLUE COME ON BACK TO CLUE CORNER! BOOP!

MELISSA: That was pretty impressive, what you did back at the apartment.
ACE: You don't have to tell me. I was there.

ACE: I just visited Ray Finkle's place.
MELISSA: And?
ACE: Cozy, if you're Hannibal Lecter.

EINHORN: When we find Marino, We'll deliver Snowflake.
ACE: When I find Snowflake, I'll deliver Marino.

ACE: Don't kill meeee!! Pleeheeheeheeheeeezzz!!! I'll never tell anyone! I swear! He's the one you want!! Kill him!!
MARINO: No... kill him!

ACE: Ho, ho! Fiction can be fun! But I find the reference section much more enlightening. For instance, if you were to look up 'professional football's all time bonehead plays', you might read about a Miami Dolphin kicker named Ray Finkle, who missed a twenty-six yard field goal in the closing seconds of Super Bowl Seventeen. What you wouldn't read about is how Ray Finkle lost his mind and was committed to a mental institute, only to escape and join the police force under the assumed identity of a missing hiker, seducing her way to the top in a diabolical plan to get even with Dan Marino whom he blamed for the entire thing!!!
