Mr. Popper's Penguins is an upcoming live action comedy film starring Jim Carrey, based on the children's book of the same name. The film was originally slated for a release on August 5, 2011, but was pushed up to June 17, 2011.

Jim Carrey is Mr. Popper, a driven businessman who is clueless when it comes to the important things in life—until he inherits six penguins. Popper's penguins turn his swank New York apartment into a snowy winter wonderland—and the rest of his life upside-down. Filmed on a refrigerated soundstage with real Gentoo Penguins, "Mr. Popper's Penguins" is a contemporary adaptation of the classic book.

Caught the trailer for this earlier at the glorious Barnet Odeon. It looks reasonable. I like the book, but if I had a pound for everytime I have said that and the film has turned out to be a total shambles, I would be getting quite rich by now.

Don't think so. Just think, this might not be the only code and the next one might be from a different source altogether. They just try to scare you into spending money, that's all.
