Hey Pete,

The original Dumb and Dumber is easily one of my favorite comedies of all time. Followed closely by There's Something About Mary. Thank you and your brother for letting loose such hilarity upon the world!

Here's my question(s): I've always been curious about the level of involvement from your actors in the scriptwriting process because many lines and moments in your films seem tailor-made for the specific actors that play them out. In the case of Dumb and Dumber and its upcoming sequel, what role did Jim Carrey and Jeff Daniels play in the scriptwriting process? At what point do you bring them aboard and get their input and output? How malleable is the script when they get involved? Have you ever radically changed something in the script to suit the actor? If I'm asking too many questions, feel free to pick and choose as you like!

Thanks for the laughs!
