Ace Attorney takes on Ace Ventura

by Justin McElroy { Apr 10th 2007 at 12:56PM }

We know some of you may have seen this before, but when it comes to tidbits about Phoenix Wright, we simply can't help ourselves. This particular entry combines everyone's favorite bumbling attorney with everyone's least favorite Jim Carrey dramedy, Liar Liar. The two law-themed productions have been spliced together using the same mashup technology that brought us the rock remix of "All About the Benjamins" and Goober PB & J. The results, while less headbangingly satisfying than peanut butter mixed with jelly or "AAtB (RR)," do manage to make Liar Liar funny, a feat we believe even Diddy would appreciate.

Oh come on, Liar Liar wasn't that bad. Some parts are quite funny.

Neal @ Apr 10th 2007 1:03PM

If we wanna take stabs at Jim Carrey Movies, lets talk about The Number 23, Fun with Dick and Jane, or The Cable Guy...

Liar Liar was better than all of those.

savvydoc @ Apr 10th 2007 1:11PM

Liar liar is one of the best!! And Cable Guy was great too!
Hold your hater tongues!

The placement of that lamp makes it look like his head is on fire in the still.

TiaMaster @ Apr 10th 2007 1:28PM

Err...wasn't Liar Liar damn funny?

Again with the "we're 'journalists' so making negative comments makes us seem smart" thing.

Why all the hate for Liar Liar? That movie's great! Though I do have to admit that the jury's still out on my taste in movies since I hated Titanic (but I am a guy), loved Sister Act (Am I a guy?), and loved Jumangi and Ernest Saves Christmas as well.

Are you as confused as I apparently am? :D

Raynre @ Apr 10th 2007 2:02PM

Hey, Joystiq, guess what? You're a video game blog for a reason. Just because you guys have horrible tastes in movies doesnt mean you get to bash on some of our favorites. Stick to the games, at least those you'll have a chance at.

Oobgarm @ Apr 10th 2007 2:03PM

Liar Liar is one of Jim Carrey's best films. It allows him to perform his brand of physical comedy. Of which(much to his dismay, I'm sure) is what he's known for.

And he's damn good at it, too.

Ken @ Apr 10th 2007 2:10PM

Joystiq isn't hating... critics were hating:

Unfortunately people said bad things about that movie. That and cable guy... even though I found Cable guy to be one of my favorite movies.

C. Grant @ Apr 10th 2007 2:38PM

Cable Guy is great! And sorry guys, not with you on Liar Liar.

""It's been known that holding it in can cause prostate cancer!"
"Really?"
"Do you want to take the chance?"
"Well then I may need a recess as well."

It should be (roughly)
Its been known to cause prostate cancer
IS that true?
It has to be
Then I better take a little break myself

"This pen is b.......b..........b.bbbbbllll..uu...bb... red."
Or is that the other way around?

The pen is rrre re e r er e r e re rrrreeeee Royal Blue

"I was speeding... I have years of unpaid parking tickets." "There's a dent in my car... And there's nothing I can do."

Dent in the car would have nothing to do with anything, not to mention there was no dent in his car. He talks about changing lanes without signaling, running a red light and speeding (amont other things)

"I've had better."

"They're noticing you because of your " SMACK

"I can lie!"
"Then you just lied to me!"
"NO wait let me explain!"

"My sister was sued by the burglar from falling through her ceiling for $. What would you do?"
"I would have gotten him twice that." "DOH!"

Close enough... But she talked about falling on a knife, and him saying 'i'd have gotten him 10, or something

"I've made a horrible mistake. My client is a greedy b*tch and shouldn't win!"

Not sure of the quote, but I know its off.

"Boss, everyone hates your guts and know you're bald."

This one isn't really close at all.

"Who did this to you?"
"The guy was nuts and wild eyed."
After hurting himself during the recess.

He says 'I mad man your honor, a desperate old fool at the end of his pitiful rope (or somethign close to that...

"I still love your mother..."

"Did you wish for us to get back together?"
"Nyah I wanted a (bike) N64 Wii!""

He wanted Roller Blades.

Im bored.

savvydoc @ Apr 10th 2007 3:07PM

Fuck movie critics.

They are in their own little worlds.

Ken @ Apr 10th 2007 3:12PM

@savvydoc

I agree.

http://www.metacritic.com/film/titles/300?q=300

What the hell is that about?!

AssemblyLineHuman @ Apr 10th 2007 5:11PM

Generally favorable reviews...

Movie critics just don't give stupidly high ratings like they do in our favorite industry.

savvydoc @ Apr 10th 2007 6:19PM

@ Assemblylinehuman

Except here in the game industry the critics are way more in touch with actual game players.

With most movie reviews the span across the grading scale is always huge. (Some critics give it an A... others give it an F) And then along those lines you always see large gaps between the movie critics (aka indignant assholes) and the movie goers whom they are supposed to be providing the reviews for...

Here in the game industry (yay!) reviews are far more balanced and consistent (though admittedly high) And also player reviews are generally in agreement with the critic consesus.

Bottom line: Game critics are great! And movie critics are too chaotic to trust! GO TEAM!
