Am I the only person in the world who hates Anchorman?

This thread was a bad choice.

[Blehschmidt]

You are not alone. I didn't think the movie was funny either.

Actually I dislike most of Will Ferrel's movies.

[Sousa]

The big wacky fight scene was fun. Steve Carrell giggling like a goon in the next scene was hilarious.

Other than that, nah.

[LL!]

This thread angered me, then it made me really happy, and the last 2 posts have downed me again.

[Hellfire]

I like using the sex panther lines from time to time. "It smells like Bigfoots' dick" is my favorite one though.

This topic has been useful for sorting out the regular members from the CHUDs.

Anchorman rocks.

First third is excellent, second third very amusing, final third not so good.

I know what you're asking yourself and the answer is yes. I have a nick name for my penis. Its called the Octagon, but I also nick named my testes - my left one is James Westfall and my right one is Doctor Kenneth Noisewater. You ladies play your cards right you just might get to meet the whole gang

I actually prefer "Dodgeball" and "Wedding Crashers", as far as 'those sort of comedies' ,that came out around that time, just to sit down and watch on a boring day (...they all pale in comparison to "Old School" though....but when Owen Wilson has his breakdown in "Wedding Crashers" it's one of the funniest things I've ever seen). But it's a bloody amazing film, mostly because it's so quotable. It's one of those films that you really need to get a crate in and watch with some mates. You'll be pissing yourself. It's quite like the Ali G film. If you come at it in the wrong way you'll just think it's stupid, but come at it right, you'll love it and wont stop quoting it for years to come.

Kudos for 'Old School' pimpage.

But yeah, Anchorman is just really funny in my opinion.

'I'm Ron Burgundy?'

I laughed out loud the first time at the line about women's periods attracting bears. Very few movies make me actually laugh.

[MDK]

It had its moments but for the most part its overrated. And everyone quotes it too much which makes it even less hilarious.

Ladies and gentlemen, can I please have your attention? I've just been handed an urgent and horrifying news story. I need all of you to stop what you're doing and listen. AEDIS is wrong.

Pretty much. My ex-girlfriend and her best friend are obsessed with it, so when I used to hang out with them they'd be quoting it and talking it up like it's the funniest fucking movie ever, and then I watched it and it wasn't bad. It was just. Not nearly what it was talked up to be.

[Kaney]

Aedis, you sound like a gay.

[Rich]

AEDIS should go poop a Cornish Game Hen and then tell me its not funny

[TCO]

The best bit for me is when eachof the team is introducing themselves at the party and Brick is just casually putting mayonnaise into the toaster. I missed that on my first viewing. I crack up whenever I see it now.

[Rich]

I love toasted mayonnaise

[Draevyn]

About the only part I enjoyed about the whole movie was the telephone booth scene.

This is all because you're a miserable boy.
