    Even in 2000, I feel like they should have been able to compromise, e.g. by doing his sclera and covering up breathing holes on the computer, but still having the rest be makeup, prosthetics and a costume.

    The article says they offered to color Carrey's eyes green with CGI but he opted for the painful contact lenses anyway.

                      Fun fact: How the Grinch stole Christmas is one of three Christmas movies in history to win an Academy Award, and did so for Best makeup.

                          Rebecca Romijn played mystique first, before the role she currently has, of Una, in star trek strange new worlds. She did it best.

                            “I’m gonna rip the fuckin’ head off!”

                            I have a friend that dresses as Karl Havoc every Halloween. He’s a drummer in a band and played dressed as him for a Halloween show.

                              “But what really helped me through the makeup process, which they eventually pulled down to about three hours, was the Bee Gees. I listened through the makeup process to the entire Bee Gees catalogue. Their music is so joyful. I’ve never met Barry Gibb, but I want to thank him.”

                                    As an aside. The guy who played Pinhead was in so many things as Pinhead he learned how to do the makeup himself.

                                        I think it's one of the best acting performances in history.

                                          Acting in makeup does not seem as easy as one’s ability to act without makeup. There have been stories of people on Star Trek for example, whom had terrible experiences. Some wanted to quit, others had bad skin reactions.

                                          It really goes to show the talent that Jim Carrey has as an actor. I'm sure that Grinch costume was extremely restrictive, but his Grinch is almost more expressive than the animated ones. Contrast that with Mike Myers' Cat in the Hat, where The Cat emotes like he has daily botox injections, and you really start to get a picture of how much Carrey put into his performance.
