It's a classic Christmas movie enjoyed by hundreds of thousands every year – but it has taken some fans 24 years to notice a 'film-ruining' detail. How the Grinch Stole Christmas, starring Jim Carrey and Taylor Momsen, is considered to be one of the best Christmas movies, having won 18 awards and 37 nominations. However, eagle-eyed fans have spotted a mistake in one of its scenes, which has "ruined" the entire film for some of them.
In a TikTok video, user @cobweb said: "Every time I watch the Grinch, I notice this one little mistake they made where they either forgot to put his contacts in or they forgot to edit them in afterwards, and so Jim Carrey's brown eyes are just there. In the next scene, they're back to that [green].".
Commenting on this, one user said: "You ruined it for me." Another user added: "I just screamed. I've never seen this." A third user said: "I freaking love little details like this." One more user added: "Why is that scary." Another user said: "I've watched the Grinch so many times and never noticed this.".
Meanwhile other users shared trivia about how Jim Carrey supposedly had issues with his contacts during production as they caused him great discomfort. One user claimed: "I'm surprised this isn't common knowledge at this point but Jim's eyes got incredibly irritated with the contacts so they did have to edit it.
"But there are more scenes then just this one that show his normal eyes they only focused on the up close scenes." Another user added: "They were these massive contacts that he had to put in, to the point they hired a interrogation specialist to help him cope with the discomfort.".
