Cool indeed! More to come hopefully!
Welcome to the Jim Carrey Discussion Board

The duration is less than the first one, but it has some more scenes from the movie which makes it look more interesting to watch.

Nothing that actually teases or shows new stuff. This last TV-spot played out the Carrey and Carrell-vibe, but not enough. Lame editing. No name-dropping. (so important) What bothers me : There are no jokes. OK, Carrey is holding his urine and lies down on hot stuff ... and that's it? And Carrell shouts from time to time. This is missing performance-wise funny stuff, imo. Maybe (since Carrey is only 1/3 in the movie) there aren't more scenes they can show without spoiling?
What I did notice is that Carrey is taking half of the spot, while he is in a more supporting and smaller role. Proof that he actually is a very important man when it comes to selling tickets. Comparing both starts outside the US when talking about box-office results, Carrey simply still is one of the biggest comedians out there. And lots of the newer names (including Steve) aren't that big worldwide, not at all.
I'm curious how this will do in theatres. I guess it will do just fine though.
