my favorite Ernest movie
My favorite is Ernest Goes to Jail.
It's my personal opinion that Jim Varney had a hell of a lot more talent than Jim Carrey, and the only reason the critics didn't notice this is pure snobbery. The ernest movies are aimed at an audience that is southern, rural, and working class.
Check out Varney's double role in E. goes to Jail, or the scene in that movie where they tell Ernest he has to seem like a criminal, so he does a bunch of rapid-fire impressions of famous movie criminals.
and the scenes in that movie with the magnetized Ernest and the metal objects is like something out of classic silent comedy.
