By Zeus’ Beard In A Glass Cage Of Emotion On Whore Island!! ANCHORMAN 2 To Propel Ron Burgundy Into The 1980s!!

Not sure if a sequel is a good idea, by jimmay	Jul 23rd, 2008 08:25:39 PM
but I do love the first one. It's just absurd enough to cover the fact it's really a pretty witty satire on the cheesy chauvinism of the 1970's.
first by gawwy83	Jul 23rd, 2008 08:26:11 PM

Oh, and first. by jimmay	Jul 23rd, 2008 08:26:13 PM
You know, because it's such an impressive feat.
Denied... by gawwy83	Jul 23rd, 2008 08:28:00 PM
...seconds away from a strangely gratifying yet altogether pointless feat. I still haven't got one...I'm a loser
Haven't missed yet by dvdhound79	Jul 23rd, 2008 08:28:42 PM
So I'm willing to see what they've got. Just add Riley to the mix and it'll be even greater
Great? by tonagan	Jul 23rd, 2008 08:28:45 PM
I have no idea how to feel about this.
Fantastic? by just pillow talk	Jul 23rd, 2008 08:29:55 PM
Me either. I did find the first one amusing though.
Stay classy, Ron Burgandy by Durant	Jul 23rd, 2008 08:33:00 PM
That means bringing back Veronica, Brick, Champ, and sex panther Brian Fantana. Nobody wants to see Ron Burgandy II: the Rise of Garth Holliday.
Its the funniest movie ever made. by dr sauch	Jul 23rd, 2008 08:34:11 PM
I know that you all like a lot of older movies. I've seen them. Nothing is as funny as this. Nothing.

I wonder if Steve Carrell would come back, by jimmay	Jul 23rd, 2008 08:40:34 PM
or if making millions for starring in complete crap has spoiled him. He hasn't done anything funny since 40 year old virgin. I'm sure Paul Rudd, David Koechner and Christina Applegate would come back, though.

I hate you Ron Burgundy!
Settle down dr sauch... by SpreadLegsNotWar	Jul 23rd, 2008 08:43:47 PM
...your taste in movies sucks if you think Anchorman is the funniest movie ever made. Yeah, it can be very funny and I know it's all subjective but that's a fairly retarded statement to make.
by postalpez	Jul 23rd, 2008 08:46:27 PM
there is an Anchorman in columbus Ohio that everyone thinks is retarded like Steve Carrell's part. he even does his hair the same way.
jimmay by mefrog	Jul 23rd, 2008 08:47:03 PM
In an interview a while back, Steve Carrel said he would "absolutley" return for Anchorman 2 and he doesn't think his character should be taken any further than it is (i.e., keep it a supporting role). Anchorman is truly one of those only only films that just took me about three times to view it before I started laughing every minute. I can watch it at least once every year now or so to laugh just as long and hard. Bring on a sequel, and have more singing. Hell, make it a fucking musical. My ass is in the seat.
Spreadlegs by dr sauch	Jul 23rd, 2008 08:47:37 PM
I know, my opinion is retarded and my taste sucks because I don't agree with you. Go post somewhere else, this is about Anchorman.

Anchorman is funnier.
I fucking hate....... by Crackles	Jul 23rd, 2008 08:51:56 PM
when people put zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz's go fucking read something else if it's making you so fucking sleepy! Anchorman is brilliant!
It's the funniest movie ever made by wash	Jul 23rd, 2008 08:51:57 PM
Here's a list of all the movies I've ever seen: Schindler's List Henry Portrait of a Serial Killer Cannibal Holocaust Snuff Superman Returns
I hope Carrel does return, by jimmay	Jul 23rd, 2008 08:54:03 PM
And I hope he wasn't just blowing smoke in that interview. It really wouldn't be 'Anchorman' without Brick, and it'd be lame if they made his character a main player just to cash in on his "Star power." Any cameos (Stiller, Rogen, Vaughn, Wilson, Black, Robbins, etc.) would have to be done tastefully, as well.
Actually by wash	Jul 23rd, 2008 08:54:08 PM
Salo is a little funnier, forgot about that one
Champ... by hobsnobber	Jul 23rd, 2008 08:54:51 PM
I ate your chocolate-covered squirrel.
No dr sauch by SpreadLegsNotWar	Jul 23rd, 2008 08:55:45 PM
...your taste doesn't suck because you don't agree with me, it sucks because out of all the comedies ever made in the existence of film, you have chosen Anchorman as the best comedy ever made. Ever. Think about that. Or don't. How old are you? Sheesh.
The first one is beyond bullshit. by greenstyle92	Jul 23rd, 2008 08:56:09 PM
Seriously. Unfunny and unwatchable, I don't know how so many gave a pass, let alone liked it. Here's hoping we can get Christian Bale to go beat up Will Ferrel's mom...
But will Luke Wilson return? by Nico Toscani	Jul 23rd, 2008 09:01:33 PM
He needs to lose a couple more limbs.
First one sucked...so will the 2nd one. by Alice Cooper Stalker	Jul 23rd, 2008 09:05:27 PM
Ferrell's career is in a downard spiral. Old School 2 is his only hope.
Hey Dr. Sauch by Beezbo	Jul 23rd, 2008 09:22:13 PM
That Japanese family's rec room line is a favorite of mine. If I'm not mistaken, the unrated DVD substituted a different line, and it really pissed me off.
will farrell's only funny about half the time by juice willis	Jul 23rd, 2008 09:26:21 PM

McKay needs Burgundy to go up against CNN & WGN by Sir Loin	Jul 23rd, 2008 09:30:20 PM
Imagine the possibilities. The emergence of cable (which I clearly remember being in awe of) where CNN, WGN, TBS, and ESPN began the assault against the traditional networks. RON CAN OVERCOME THEM.

Ehhhh... by Kurutteru Yatsu	Jul 23rd, 2008 09:34:24 PM
I'm at the point where I'm over Ferrell and his stunted man-child act, but the first one has so many great lines/characters I'd have to give it a chance.
Adam McKay is a genius by Juemad	Jul 23rd, 2008 09:39:09 PM
When he's not writing movies where Will Ferrell acts like an overgrown kid, he's creating internet videos where his kid acts like an undersized adult. Genius!
Will ferrell needs to get away from McKay and the boys by Jugdish	Jul 23rd, 2008 09:47:28 PM
Seriously- has this guy lived up to the hype he was supposed to be? He's great at 3 minutes skits- but for 90 mimnutes its too much. Try somebody new for a change-
Jonathan Violence by TVguy4566	Jul 23rd, 2008 09:48:57 PM
"Wesley Snipes wasnt aware he was being filmed when they shot Blade." Well that would explain why he got in trouble for not paying taxes. How can the government tax you for just living and kicking ass?!?
Anchorman was amusing, but... by TVguy4566	Jul 23rd, 2008 09:51:13 PM
I never saw it as a genius comedy that many people do. I'd rather see an Old School 2 than an Anchorman 2.
My Will Ferrell theory by tbransonlives	Jul 23rd, 2008 09:51:30 PM
It's simple, the smaller the role the funnier he is. Examples? Anchorman, eh. Old School, ha. Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back, Har. Austin Powers, Har Har.
Ferrell sucks... by thegreatwhatzit	Jul 23rd, 2008 09:54:00 PM
And, gauging the underwhelming boxoffice of his previous film, he's overexposed. Ferrell (definitely no Phil Hartman) is slipping into the Abbott & Costello cycle; after a profitable launch, they made too many lame movies (of course, their legacy was rescued with ABBOTT AND COSTELLO MEET FRANKENSTEIN). By the way, Ferrell loathes his fans (declines autographs); one day, he'll beg of the attention.

Movies that are funnier than Anchorman: by Stifler's Mom	Jul 23rd, 2008 10:11:36 PM

i loved Anchorman, but i'm not so sure a sequel is a great idea.

Cotton... by Darkman	Jul 23rd, 2008 10:17:36 PM
If only for Ben Stiller's shit-yourself-from-laughing-so -hard performance, that statement is true. Still, I'm a little curious to see if a sequel can live up to the original and not just hang on a bunch of super-obvious whoa-what-were-they-thinking gags about 80s style.
Wedding Crashers? by lost.rules.	Jul 23rd, 2008 10:25:18 PM
Funnier than Anchorman? Seriously? That movie was worth a few chuckles on first viewing, but was basically unwatchable after that. Mostly good just for the shock value of the unpredictable scenes like the under the table HJ, or gay dude in a closet. The writing itself was pretty poor.
Speaking of Whore Island by lost.rules.	Jul 23rd, 2008 10:26:52 PM
They should get Alex Baldwin to play the station manager this time around. Okay, that was MILF Island, but still, you know I'm right...

Getting real tired of Farrell... by br1947	Jul 23rd, 2008 10:40:05 PM
Loved Anchorman (mainly because I have worked in local tv news and know how close to reality much of it is), but there are only so many times you can watch the same man-child routine.

Ferrell needs to get back to some good roles... by Executor	Jul 23rd, 2008 11:46:02 PM
...instead of the same sexist idiot studs he always plays. He's funny in small doses, try a buddy comedy (and try getting a comedian as a co-star...as much as i love John C. Reilly, he never has and never will carry a movie.) Or try playing a real person again, like in Old School...Ferrell was hilarious but he actually felt like someone who could interact with the real world, unlike all the rest of his movies where he's off on Planet Ferrell. More and more, lately, by himself.

Man, this turned into a quote thread in a hurry by bravogolfhotel	Jul 24th, 2008 12:38:36 AM
Or should I say, "Boy, this thread really got out of hand"? I'm of two minds about this. I love ANCHORMAN to pieces (I even bought the two-disc edition with the alternate version patched together from deleted scenes and dropped subplots), but I'm going to need to be convinced that a sequel would be fresh enough to justify its existence. With the way Will Ferrell is reaching Ben Stiller levels of oversaturation, by the time ANCHORMAN II actually gets made, his career may be riding on it and the whole thing could be drenched in flop sweat.

I don't trust anyone who doesn't think Anchorman is... by Powers Boothe	Jul 24th, 2008 09:37:40 AM
absolutely fantastic. Talladega Nights and Pootie Tang are the only other "recent" comedies I love as much. I'm really looking forward to Step Brothers this weekend.
One of the many great things about Anchorman is... by Powers Boothe	Jul 24th, 2008 09:47:34 AM
the fact that Ferrell is surrounded by actors who get lines as funny as his. The cast is perfect. I'm too lazt to click on the EW article so I'm not sure how many of those guys will be back for the sequel.
I forgot about The 40 Year Old Virgin! by Powers Boothe	Jul 24th, 2008 09:56:10 AM
That's another recent comedy I consider as good as "the classics" from the late 70s/80s. Stuff like National Lampoon's Animal House, National Lampoon's Vacation, The Three Amigos, Stripes and even wildly uneven guilty pleasures like The Blues Brothers, 1941 & Spies Like Us.
I have never seen Anchorman by Abominable Snowcone	Jul 24th, 2008 09:58:04 AM

What's the likelihood by Abominable Snowcone	Jul 24th, 2008 09:59:13 AM
of getting Ferrell, Carell AND Jim Carey together in a picture? With the right script, that might be a recipe for chocolate-coated p****juice
Anchorman was a HUGE disappointment by hst666	Jul 24th, 2008 10:44:55 AM
I don't understand the love for this film. I am neither a Will Ferrell hater or a Apatow team hater, but this film was nothing more than a series of strung together jokes involving one-dimensional characters. I thought the best part was the anchor team gang war and there were definitely other jokes that made me laugh, but not enough to love this film. 40-year old virgin was much funnier and much better. Hell, Dodgeball was much better than this.
Talladega Nights is awful by lost.rules.	Jul 24th, 2008 11:02:45 AM
I guess it must appeal to Nascar fans or just hicks in general, but it by far the worst writing of all the Apatow movies.
Dodgeball funnier than Anchorman? by Powers Boothe	Jul 24th, 2008 11:05:58 AM
With all due respect hst666, you're obviously insane. Comedy is obviously such a subjective kinda thing. Ive never had any luck attempting to convince Anchorman haters of its brilliance. You either dig it or you don't.>p> I may be one of three people on the planet who liked Dewey Cox and Semi-Pro :(
Talladega Nights is "awful"? by Powers Boothe	Jul 24th, 2008 11:15:23 AM
Without sounding like a snob, I can't imagine a "hick" getting most of the jokes in that film. I know next to nothing about Nascar and thought Talladega was pretty bloody terrific. And just like Anchorman, Ferrell is backed by a great cast. May I be so bold to say you know absolutely NOTHING about what constitutes good comedic writing?

You hit the nail on the head. Parts of it were funny, but came across as a loosely connected series of sketches.

Aye. Personally, I loved that. Harked back to the days of Naked Gun, where they threw so much at the screen that SOME of it stuck. Were there sucky parts? Yes, Ferrell and McKay wrote a LOT of lines that were mildly amusing and witty but not particularly funny... Ferrell spent a LOT of time trying to top everyone else, and it didn't succeed... and Jack Black's cameo was ill-concieved.

They may be trying to make a quick buck (hardly necessary since pretty much anything done by Either Farrel or this writer has generated piles of cash), but the fact that you would use the descriptor "fucking faggots" to describe them says a lot more about you than it does about them. If you're not interested in seeing this film that's fine, but why don't you develop a little bit of sophistication and evolve beyond junior high school bigotry. Usually people who speak that way are closet cases, and in any event such language paints you as a narrow minded slim witted ape. Grow up. Show a little class, and try to formulate an intelligent or eloquent statement.

I'll be happy to provide the landmine or throw you from the chrysler building if you need a push if it will keep you from whining about movies that haven't been made yet. As for your fantasy of being violated by a bear or farm equipment you're on your own, I'm sure you have the required lingerie. If some of you guys who are bitching about this sequel were half as clever as you think you are, maybe you'd be giving Will Ferrel some competition by doing something creative instead of sitting here complaining about how awful everything is. Anybody who judges a film that hasn't even been shot yet is an asshole plain and simple. Everybody thought Heath Ledger would be a lousy Joker, and while I wasn't convinced one way or the other I was smart enough to keep my mouth shut and wait and see. Most people thought Bryan Singer directing a Superman film was a great idea, but I wasn't convinced, again, I didn't rain on anybody's parade. Some sequels do in fact surpass the original. The Dark Knight, Wrath of Khan, Empire Strikes Back etc. Be skeptical all you want, but stop judging things that don't exist yet. If you don't wanna' see Anchorman 2 good for you. I thought the first one was pretty funny, and if the second gets chuckles out of my friends I'll probably pick up a used copy from Blockbuster. Stop taking movies as personal attacks on you.
