Will Ferrell's Greatest Movie Role?
Comments
-
Sandler's recent humor is a long play joke that Netflix has given him all this money to make movies where he's trying his hardest to show the viewer how much he dgaf.

Talladega Nights - Ricky Bobby
I kind of like the basketball movie. Ant Edwards was a pretty good villain.

Don't get me wrong though I like Farrell and Jack Black and I think both are more than good enough to carry movies, I just always feel like both are better as like being more cameo type guys. I never got Anchorman though and kind of seemed like to me like it was just a bunch of saying silly shit in silly ways to be quotable. It wasn't as bad but similar to when Dane Cook was big for like one year and girls really liked the silly way he said stuff.
Ashley Schaefer is amazing and Eastbound and Down is like all time good comedy stuff. I'm also much more of a Apatow style fan than the Old School, Wedding Crashers, Hangover genre.

Anchorman - Ron Burgundy
He's pretty funny. Not gonna make any of my top 10 lists, but he makes me laugh more than most comedy actors.

will ferrell had a thing going but it got stale then he leaned way into it.

Elf - Buddy
Elf is a classic. Netflix's show "The Movies that Made Us" or something to that effect had an episode about Elf, and how they filmed and weren't totally certain WF would be the right fit. At the time he was an SNL guy but really hadn't done many movies. They were a bit worried as Old School had come out a bit earlier and thought the raucous comedy would keep parents from bringing their kids to see Elf. Elf obviously put him on everyone's radar.
Though not really a Will Ferrell funny moment but from these movies this is still my favorite sequence (The Other Guys - Soup Kitchen):
