Q: Are Jim's films appropriate for younger children?
A: Exelent Q. Our advice is to heed the rating of each respected film. Most of the humor is physical (and sometimes called "toilet humor").

Check out JCO for in-depth information, too.

A: Ah, you mean Ace Ventura, the Mask, and Lloyd Christmas. Well, "Dumb and Dumber" only lasted one season. The film didn't translate to cartoon very well. As for "Ace Ventura: Pet Detective" and "The Mask"; they both fared much better, lasting several seasons. They even had two "cross-over" episodes in which Ace and Stanley Ipkiss/Mask met each other in each character's respective series. Good times? good times?
