Dumb and Dumber fans only now noticing clever detail three decades after release
Fans of '90s hit comedy Dumb and Dumber are only now realising a clever detail from the movie, which is widely regarded among the funniest films of all time. Dumb and Dumber opened at number one at the box office and earned a whopping $247 million against a relatively small budget of €17 million. It is a standout film in the careers of Jim Carrey and Jeff Daniels, who played the protagonists of Lloyd Christmas and Harry Dunne respectively. While it's been 31 years since Dumb and Dumber first hit our screens, a clever detail in the movie has only recently surfaced on Reddit, leaving fans of the film in stitches as they remember their first experiences watching it, The Mirror reports. On Reddit's 'Movie Details' thread, one user highlighted a subtle joke that went over the heads of many viewers over the past three decades. A deleted scene from the movie had revealed the joke but it came as a surprise to most when it was pointed out. The Redditor pointed out: "In 'Dumb and Dumber,' Lloyd Christmas was in love with Mary Swanson. Had they gotten married and she'd taken his last name, she'd be named Mary Christmas. It's never mentioned in the movie." YardBarker further explained that this was not simply a coincidence, as evidenced by a deleted scene where Harry pieces together the connection, but ultimately, the filmmakers chose not to draw attention to the joke. When the deleted scene was shared on the Reddit thread, it received some criticism from users who failed to find it amusing. One commenter wrote: "Wow...I've seen a few deleted scenes and am glad they were deleted". Another user echoed this sentiment, stating: "I've seen an uncut version on TV a long time ago, and was like what the f*** is this? Over the top crude humour. It totally killed the innocent stupidity of the characters". One user joked, "So basically the sequel?" while another Reddit user poked fun, saying they act "like that doesn't exist". A fellow user chimed in, "Wise man. I still refuse to see it as well. In some alternate reality, there was a sequel that was true to the original and hilarious. That's what I tell myself anyway." The Farrelly brothers-led movie is considered one of the funniest of all time but it only holds a modest 67 per cent Tomatometer score on Rotten Tomatoes. Dumb and Dumber spawned an animated TV series, a 2003 prequel, and a 2014 sequel but it is the original that truly holds up among the greatest comedies of all time, with many reminiscing fondly of their first time watching. Many social media users have shared fond memories of the film, saying they were "obsessed" with it as a kid and had watched it so many times it was "burned into their brain," finding it "hilarious".

The New Toyota 4Runner Lacks a Manual Because Nobody's Asking for It
The 2025 doesn't offer a manual transmission, an option that's otherwise available on its mechanical sibling, the . says a manual sixth-gen 4Runner is possible, but it's not building one because there isn't strong customer demand. The third generation was the last time Toyota offered a 4Runner with three pedals, but the option went away after the 2000 model year. It's been 25 years since you could buy a new Toyota 4Runner with a do-it-yourself gearbox. The body-on-frame mid-size SUV said goodbye to its optional manual transmission after the 2000 model year, while its cargo-bed-toting counterpart, the Toyota Tacoma, has continuously offered a three-pedal option. It's not surprising the new sixth-generation 4Runner lacks a manual since the last two generations didn't have one either, but we decided to ask Toyota why it hasn't revived the DIY transmission. Simply put, nobody's asked for it. A Toyota spokesperson told Car and Driver the 4Runner's lack of a manual option is because "there hasn't been any strong customer request for it." Of course, some customers might be interested in a new manual-equipped 4Runner, but the number of people is probably akin to those who want to bring back eight-track players. Still, since hypotheticals are fun, we asked Toyota if enough people demanded a stick-shift version, would it be possible to offer one without any major packaging issues? The answer: "Since the architecture is similar to Tacoma, on gas models, an MT could be possible." In the famous words of Lloyd Christmas, "So you're telling me there's a chance!" Jokes aside, the world will likely never see a new manual 4Runner. However, if Toyota were to build one using the TNGA-F platform the SUV shares with the redesigned Tacoma, it would feature a 270-hp 2.4-liter turbo four with four-wheel drive. At least that's the only way the stick-shift Tacoma comes. Toyota's pickup is also the last new truck sold in the United States that offers three pedals—so enjoy it while it lasts.
