In between, he has started a cult, founded his own country and found out what happens when you say "Yes" to everything - a story so inspiring that it is being made into a film called Yes Man with Jim Carrey.
"I saw the first cut last week. I'm not precious about the story, so I just said that as long as they kept the spirit the same and it was warm, generous and a bit romantic [Wallace met his wife during the Yes Man book project], then I'd be happy.
"The weirdest part for me was flipping on the TV and seeing Jim Carrey talking about the film and the interviewer saying Yes Man. I just thought that if I'd called it something else, they'd actually have to say different words! But having seen it, Jim Carrey pulls more faces and falls over more than I did, but he treats the story with respect, which is nice."

There actually was a Sneak/Test Screening for the Yes Man about two months ago! Three very short comments I found from people who were there ...
First Comment (4.5/5)
First Comment (4.5/5)
Second Comment (4/5)I saw the sneak preview, and this movie kept me laughing at, as well as fighting for the main character. i loved it. this is very well one of my favorite roles that Jim has ever played.
Third Comment (3/5)An awesome comedy, the spur of moment kind. makes me wanna go to nebraska and mess with that telephone museum, or more like telephone room, lol.
Saw a sneak preview. Needs some work is all I have to say. Without Zooey this movie would have been a bit to lifeless for me.
