Getting the go-ahead to make the sequel to Dumb and Dumber seems like a pretty smart move, but for some reason it's not happening yet.

Although Jim Carrey had dropped out of the follow-up to the Farrelly brothers' 1994 hit in June, he says he and Jeff Daniels still want to see it happen.

"I'm ready," Carrey told me last night at SXSW's opening night premiere of his new comedy, The Incredible Burt Wonderstone. "There is a script. It's fun. Jeff and I are raring to go."
