Interesting Questions, Facts, and Information

    Cable Guy, The

    What was the last word Jim Carrey said in the movie?The Cable Guy

      Buddy. In the last scene of the movie, it showed a helicopter guy and Jim Carrey having a conversation inside of the helicopter. The helicopter guy said to Jim, "You're going to make it, buddy." Jim, with a devilish look, said back to him, "You mean it...I'm your buddy"?

    What was Jim Carrey's beer of choice in the movie?The Cable Guy

      Heineken. There were a few instances where Heineken was mentioned. First, after they finished playing basketball, Chip offered to buy a Heineken for Steven. Next, they showed the two main characters drinking it after they returned from Medeival Times. Finally, Steven offered Chip a Heineken when Chip threatened to jump off of the satellite tower.

    When Jim Carrey arrived to install Mathew Broderick's cable, he was shocked at how clean the floors were. He said, "The old McNair place...never thought they'd get the floors cleaned after what happened." What happened?The Cable Guy

      They had a lot of cats.. This took place in one of the first few opening scenes. Right after Carrey and Broderick met for the first time, in Broderick's apartment, Jim Carrey said to Mathew Broderick, "I never thought they'd get the floors cleaned after what happened." He went on to say that they had a lot of cats. This line was funny, because in a typical situation, a murder story would follow Jim Carrey's line of "never thought they'd get the floors clean after what happened."

    What cartoon was on in the morning after the karaoke jam?The Cable Guy

      Ren and Stimpy. The cartoon was on only briefly, but both the audio and visual components made it easily identifiable as "Ren and Stimpy". You could see it in back of Jim Carrey when he was cooking breakfast. "Ren and Stimpy" was a classic cartoon that aired in the early 1990s. It was about an oddly drawn cat and hound and featured very gross jokes.

      Double Trouble. There was only a brief shot of the title of the show.

    How were the eggs prepared by Jim Carrey, in the scene after Mathew Broderick sleeps with a prostitute?The Cable Guy
