Idea for a film

Jim Carrey stars as Bert Headly, an associate professor of English at a small liberal arts college. Shy and reserved, he's notorious among the student body for writing very little feedback on the papers he grades. Ignoring the requests of kindly medievalist Carole (Maggie Gyllenhaal) that he edit a paper she is submitting to The Journal of English and Germanic Philology, Bert instead retreats back to his small flat to enjoy a P.D. Wodehouse novel alone. He brews a cup of Constant Comment brand tea, only to discover after drinking it, he is compelled to comment... constantly.
Constant Comment

It's timely, and opportunities for product placement are obvious.

P.S. Did you realize that Ace Ventura: Pet Detective, The Mask, and Dumb and Dumber were all released in 1994?
