While on the road, Lloyd has to relieve himself, and in desperation, he pees into several empty beer bottles in the car. Why didn't Harry just pull over and let him go on the side of the row? Note the film's title. While Harry holds the bottles to pass to Harry, a cop passes by and notices the suspicious situation of holding open liquor containers ...
Despite only knowing her for a few minutes, Lloyd managed to learn and retain the knowledge of several details about the woman he was chauffering/falling in love with, Mary Swanson. RELATED: The 5 Best (And 5 Worst) '90s Comedies He memorized her name, a few details, her luggage's appearance, and where she lived. It might seem insignificant, but th...
While freezing outdoors in the cold winter of Aspen, Harry and Lloyd ruminate on their situation over a small fire. Harry notes how frozen his hands are, and Lloyd gives him a spare pair of mittens he was wearing, to the utter disdain of a freezing Harry. The ire is justified, but it also leads to the opening of Mary's briefcase, revealing the mass...
This might sound like a pretty dumb idea, and to an extent, it is, but under some analysis, maybe it was for the better. While motorcycling together into the snowy Aspen, this time around, it's Harry who's gotta pee. And while the two men are exposed to the harsh weather, they are frozen together. Harry asks if they can stop somewhere to relieve hi...
Early on in the film, upon taking Mary's briefcase, the criminals she was in trouble with track down Lloyd with the stolen briefcase back to his apartment. The thugs leave a message at the door for the duo, by killing Harry's pet parakeet, Petey. Following, that, Lloyd gives an impassioned speech about wanting to live freely and escape their dull l...
When the pair make it to Aspen, Harry accidentally hits it off with Mary while at a charity event and manages to snag a date with her, which was Lloyd's entire motivation to go to Aspen. Once he realizes that he's possibly going to get somewhere with a woman way out of his league, Harry decides to lie to Lloyd about it, so as to not lose his date. ...
In order to exact his vengeance on Harry for snatching away his crush, Lloyd decides to get even in the most sinister of ways. He plays dumb (pun unintended) in front of Harry, acting ignorant of the previous date with Mary, and the impending one. He then proceeds to dose a glass full of a liquid laxative and makes a toast with Harry. It's almost S...
At some point in the third act of the film, Harry cut a deal with an undercover FBI agent(who Lloyd had blown off earlier while waiting for Mary). In the climactic scene in the hotel room, Harry gets shot by the baddie, but he manages to survive because he followed the instructions of the agent. Of course, he manages to screw up the next step, but ...
Lloyd might be the (slightly) smarter member of the duo, but he's certainly not the nicer one. After the goons cut off Petey the parakeet's head, Lloyd turns the tragedy into a cheap profit. He sells the bird (with its decapitated head taped back onto its body) to a blind kid in his neighborhood. It's unbelievably horrible, but he did make a cool $...
The Sea Bass scam is the primary reason Lloyd gets the title of "dumb" as opposed to "dumber" in this list. Lloyd doesn't think of the conhimself, but he does manage to perfectly pull it off after seeing it in a movie. And rather than use his trickery on a disabled and innocent kid, he uses it on a horrible, hot-tempered, and nasty trucker named Se...

- 'South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut' (1999) Directed by Trey Parker. Ever since South Park first hit television back in 1997 it has been an ever-polarizing dose of relentless satire laced with shockingly crude humor.
- 'Dumb and Dumber' (1994) Directed by Peter Farrelly and Bob Farrelly. A comedy classic, Dumb and Dumber has come to be viewed by many as the pinnacle of dumb comedy done right with its idiotic leading duo going from one ridiculous mishap to the next.
- 'Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure' (1989) Directed by Stephen Herek. From one lovable rock 'n' roll-loving duo to another, Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure was similar to Wayne’s World in its ability to master comedic stupidity while becoming a cherished cinematic icon in the process.
- 'Wayne's World' (1992) Directed by Penelope Spheeris. If it’s stupid but it works, is it really stupid? Wayne’s World was released 30 years ago now and has been a hallmark of stupid comedy movies ever since.

A futuristic world populated by pampered, self-indulgent morons spoon-fed by the technology of a bygone era: this idea has its precedent in H.G.

Early in the film, a narrator explains the quick degradation of humanity over five hundred years, but does not ...
- It Has a Surprising Amount of Heart. Make no mistake, Dumb and Dumber is a love story. Despite the premise of the film, however (a man meeting a woman, falling desperately in love with her and traveling across the country in an attempt to ‘woo’ her), this is not a love story between Lloyd Christmas and Mary Samsonite.
- It’s Not Cliché. In any other movie, Lloyd Christmas would have traveled across the country to find Mary, he would have given her the lost briefcase and, despite Lloyd’s eccentricities, they would have fallen in love and lived happily-ever-after.
- It’s Just Relatable Enough. Let’s get this straight — most of the things that happen to Harry and Lloyd in Dumb and Dumber probably wouldn’t happen to “real” people.
- It’s Extremely Quotable. “You can’t Triple Stamp a Double Stamp, Lloyd.” “Radio? Who needs the radio?” “You are one pathetic loser.” “Soooo, you’re telling me there’s a chance?”
