A TikToker has spotted a truly cursed costume fail in How the Grinch Stole Christmas and it’s sent my poor noggin into a tinsel-laden tizzy.
Now don’t get me wrong: I adore a costume flop. There is so much hubris among the folks who work on high-budget motion pictures that a wee whoopsie doodle is needed to bring ’em all back down to Earth, IMO.
But this particular fail sent a shiver down my spine. It made me feel nauseous. And we have TikToker Cobweb
() to thank for it.
“So every time I watch I notice this one little mistake they made where they forget either to put his contacts in or they forgot to edit them in afterwards, so ‘s brown eyes … they’re just there, ” they said in the vid.
Where are Carrey’s brown eyes in , you ask? Why they’re simply rearing their dark, moody and mysterious heads in that scene where the Grinch is about to hightail it out of Whoville via a garbage chute.
In one scene the eyes are brown and in the next, they’re that and truly terrifying Grinchy yellow.
Please, see for yourself.
I hate it. Get it away from me. might’ve devoted a song to a girly with brown eyes but such irises do nothing for the Grinch’s green complexion.
I can’t believe the Grinch’s costume designers found a way to make his costume even more grotesque and, quite frankly, hideous. As a proud owner of brown eyes I’d be lying if I said I didn’t enjoy the representation, but I’m literally begging someone to get the Grinch some different coloured contacts STAT.
I’m not surprised there was a boo boo with the contact lenses given all the Grinch costume drama. Never forget, Carrey hated his Grinch costume so fucking much producer had to .
On that note, I’m going to go and admire my big, beautiful brown eyes and thank my Mum and Dad for blessing me with irises which perfectly suit my face.
