"Carrey seems to be greatly affected by the late philosopher Terence McKenna, when asked about why he was inspired to do this project, he claims: "Much of the problem of the modern dilemma is that direct experience has been discounted and in its place all kinds of belief systems have been erected."
“The real message of psychedelics, I think, is to reclaim experience and to trust yourself. Your perceptions are primary. Your feelings are correct. Everything must constellate out and make sense and parse with what you know. If you don’t start from that assumption then you are off center to begin with. And the psychedelics will dissolve the cultural programming that has potentially made you a mark and restore your authenticity.”
- He told reporters.

I always thought Jim Carrey would off himself.
Looks like he found his way for now.

Love Jim's committment and have been wondering what happened to him- he was the biggest star on Earth for a while, but just kind of... fizzled. Would love to see him make a comeback.

He's been under a bit of a dark cloud. The family of his ex who killed herself are blaming him (he apparently gave her a couple of STDs) and Jenny McArthy's been talking about a really abusive relationship she was in which was pretty obviously him. Don't really blame him for hiding.

Is that right? Wow, I hadn't heard any of that.

5 grams isn't going to prepare you to play Terrence McKenna.
5 grams of potent mushrooms and you'll be tripping balls, but agreed, he's going to have to go a lot deeper to get into the McKenna realm.

This is fake news.
I really wanted this to be true, but unfortunately it's not.

Fake News About Jim Carrey Starring In Terence McKenna Movie

Fake News About Jim Carrey Starring In Terence McKenna Movie
30 Apr 2017

By Eva Araújo (Web correspondent)

If you are a fan of any artist, especially an actor, there's three kinds of news you will find: the good, the bad and the "we don't really care to know".

The "news" of this article are part of the "we don't really care to know" category that have been surfacing online in the last months.

Rumours have started about a movie about the Psychedelic Drugs Philosopher Terence McKenna with Jim Carrey. The worse is that these rumours even mention that Jim Carrey has taking drugs to get into character and they have went as far as to "quote" Jim Carrey.

That is an absolute lie!

A rep for the actor exclusively told the website Gossip Cop:
"Jim Carrey has not signed on to do a movie about Terence McKenna and any quotes attributed to him about experimenting with psychedelics are absolutely false."

We at JCO want to make this very clear: It's fake news! And we hope you can continue to count on us and his team for any information on Jim Carrey's work.

We will keep you all updated as real news come.

I need to try mushrooms at some point. I'm a big fan of how Carrey has adapted to the big screen from a dude doing standup. I bet he nails this role.

But yeah... kill yourself over that. Really?
There were other issues imo.
Yeah of course. Lots apparently, and I'm sure not just him related but judging by some of his texts and what Jenny McArthy said, he's a right prick.
