Fishing trip
25 Feb 1999 by BCDavis
Carreyholics� boats have been rocked lately with the rumor flying around the Internet that Jim�s current project, a remake of the classic Don Knotts film �The Incredible Mr. Limpet� has been canned. Striving to get to the bottom of this mystery, JCO started digging for more information. The results?
A Warner Bros. spokesperson stated that she can�t comment on it.
Mr. Carrey�s publicist said she can�t say much on it because the film�s still up in the air, and that they�re not really sure at this point.
The JCO Cedar Key Beacon contact has been digging around as well (since their town was the site chosen for the live-action segments of the film). He came up with more rumors, including that the production won�t be coming because there wasn�t enough rooms to house the crew. What�s really going as to why the production start date keeps being pushed back hasn�t been told to him yet.
Other folks are saying that the trouble lies within the vast CGI (computer generated imagery) special effects needed for the film. A check with Rhythm and Hues ("Babe" and the Polar Bear Coca-Cola commercials) gave JCO the news that the project had not even been green-lit yet.
In any case, �Limpet� is on hold for an indefinite amount of time.
