      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.

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

          I did not know who we were talking about until he said mystique

          Okay so the blonde actress is Jennifer Lawrence that’s cool I like her role in the movies for the X-men at least other movies I’m sure too I’m sure acting with Professor x and magneto has taught her a lot

          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.

                            There's makeup, and then there's having carpet laid on your face.

                              Yeah, Dorn never had a problem with the makeup, he had a problem with Worf getting bodied and overruled every episode.

                                Ok I was wondering why she looked different in the movie where she got shot with the dart in the back of the truck to save magneto, she became a naked human and magneto abandoned her lol

                                Every few years I watch all the X-men movies in order…

                                I’m not the best with actors’ names though, I do know Patrick Stewart and Ian McKellan though because they are such good actors. well okay and I love Star Trek lol haven’t gotten into snw yet too much though.

                                    I do the same thing, rewatch xmen, I have heaps of serious etc I do that with, I have two teenagers, currently and I've been saving the next xmen rewatch to all do together, but I can't convince them to watch it yet. But I'm patient. I can wait till they're vibing it.

                                    I have been absolutely loving snw. I've watched them all, and all the recently related series, too. The thing I love the most about snw is it brings back the old formula of star trek, it has a random cycle of some weird but fun comedy episode, a serious deep episode, etc (I forget the whole list, off the top of my head) but it just felt like being back home, somehow, back to its core. I love the characters, they're amazing actors, all deep and stoic and against all odds, but somehow still optimistic against all odds. I can't decide who I love more, although it's probably La'An, I feel like I can relate to her the most. And on top of all that, it's beautiful, beautiful scenery, beautiful story telling, engaging. I love it.

                                          It takes hours and hours to put it on, and take it off. And then theres 10 hours of acting in between.

                                          I would have panic attacks too
