da_bears86 Posted July 10, 2004 Share Posted July 10, 2004 it was hilarious i loved it and there was a guest appearance by Ben Stiller in it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CWSGuy406 Posted July 10, 2004 Share Posted July 10, 2004 I saw it. Like I said in the Palehose forum, Ferrell is a friggin' riot. Ferrell himself is worth seeing the movie alone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He makes so many things funny that normally wouldn't be, which says a lot about the comedian he is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Critic Posted July 10, 2004 Share Posted July 10, 2004 I don't know, I was much more interested in seeing it before I saw all the painfully unfunny guest appearances Farrell did for the movie. And the more clips I saw, the less I wanted to see it, too. I'll wait for the DVD rental. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dasox24 Posted July 10, 2004 Share Posted July 10, 2004 Did anyone see the "Anchorman" skit thing on Sportscenter 2 days ago. I thought that that was f'n awesome! I loved it when Farrell was like "an around the clock sports network, that will never work. That's like a 24 hour cooking network, or an all music station. haha" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rex Kickass Posted July 10, 2004 Share Posted July 10, 2004 The movie was ridiculously funny. A lot of the clips from the trailer aren't actually in the movie - and almost every joke works. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sad part is, the physique is closer to the truth than I'd like, but at least I got my hair! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BurlyMan56 Posted July 12, 2004 Share Posted July 12, 2004 I thought the movie was pretty funny but not as good as they hyped it up to be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Controlled Chaos Posted July 12, 2004 Share Posted July 12, 2004 I wasnt too impressed. It had some funny parts, but not typical Will Ferell funny. I was expecting more. Here were some lines from the movie that Ebert thought were particular good enough to use in his review...(http://12.36.78.101/output/ebert1/wkp-news-anchorman09f.html) "I have many very important leather-bound books, and my apartment smells of rich mahogany." reagrding women...."I read somewhere," one of them ominously warns, "that their periods attract bears." A cologne that smells, the newsroom agrees, "like the time the raccoon got in the copier." After reading the review...and seeing that these were the lines the movie had to offer...I started thinking it wouldn't be as good as I thought. I thought it was just an ok movie. It had some funny parts...some cool cameos, but nothing special. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It had some funny parts...some cool cameos, but nothing special. I agree with you. The character is very funny. I don't think it is something that should have been made into a whole movie though. I thought the movie was pretty stupid and actually had a lot of boring parts in the beginning. There were a lot of funny parts and lines, but not that good at all. Plus they left out my favorite part during the commercials. When he and Christina Applegate jump on the table and he yells out "LETS MAKE A BABY!" I found that hilarious and it wasn't even in the movie. Oh well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baggio202 Posted July 13, 2004 Share Posted July 13, 2004 that movie was so disappointing..i watched about one hour and then left...i dont think i laughed once..im a big will ferrell fan but even he couldnt save that pathetic script Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That character is really good and in bits and pieces there is some funny stuff. As a whole the movies is just awful. Maybe the most stupid movie I have seen this year. I wouild rather have my girlfriend drag me to see the Notebook again than to ever see The Anchorman again. :puke Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chisoxfn Posted July 13, 2004 Share Posted July 13, 2004 One Word.....AWFUL Me, Mike, Ian and Mario saw it last night and three of us couldn't stand it, Ian didn't mind it. I kind of had a hunch it would be crappy but was hoping Will Ferrel wouldn't do a really stupid comedy. Guess I was wrong, lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cerbaho-WG Posted July 13, 2004 Share Posted July 13, 2004 Quite possibly the worst movie I have ever seen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
