Will Ferrell

I really wish somebody would kill that guy. He's not funny, never has been and never will be. Any time I see a preview for one of his shitty movies I feel like I lost 20 points off of my IQ from having seen it. I was watching the first season of Eastbound and Down last night and loving it, but every scene he was in over a few episodes was killed by him. They guy annoys the fucking hell out of me and I'd love it if he was blackballed by Hollywood for being the talentless piece of shit that he is.

Rant over.

goddamn, his movies get stupider every year. While I like Eastbound & Down, Will Ferrell's character is horrible. Out of the thousands of things he's said in an attempt to be funny, there's maybe 10 I got a brief chuckle out of. I'm gonna smack the next person I hear make a Ron Burgundy reference.

and here I thought I was the only person on the planet who hates this fuck...
he has never been funny...
he never will be funny

haters.
best of will ferrell SNL is gold.

he does have a LOT of stinkers (Zoolander, Bewitched, Kicking & Screaming, Blades of Glory, Semi-Pro) but Old School, Elf, Anchorman and Talladega Nights make up for it.

loved him in Stranger Than Fiction, too, which very much NOT like his other movies.

I'm with BD.

The only things I didn't hate him in were Old School and Jay & Silent Bob strike back. I think a big part of that was he was a side character as opposed to the lead.

WILL FERRELL is great.

Me too. Although I hated Old School, which is kind of funny because a lot of people who hate his movies otherwise usually think that one's pretty good.

His SNL shit is classic and many of his movies have made me laugh for a long time. That being said can see how people may find him annoying at times.

BKT.

If the moon was made of ribs would you eat it?

clevohardcore - 12-23-2010 at 10:28 AM

STEP BROTHERS and TALLADEGA NIGHTS. I watch those movies religiously. Heck, sometimes I watch ELF in the summertime.

Johnny_Whistle - 12-23-2010 at 10:51 AM

I was never a huge fan of his when he was on SNL, especially when he was paired with Cheri Oterri (I thought every one of her characters was the same person), or Chris Kattan (ditto). But I've liked a lot of his stuff since then. His version of George Bush is the gold standard as far as I'm concerned. That's when he really got my attention. And I've never seen Old School or Talladega. Not that I don't want to, I just never seem to get around to it.

Yeah, that one is cool, VERY different kind of movie and not like any other character he's done.

BDx13 - 12-23-2010 at 12:40 PM

i'm with BKT. i understand how you dudes might not like him. his style isn't for everyone and if your first exposure to him was one of those crap movies, i can really understand never wanting to see him again.

definitely look into stranger than fiction, though. not at all like his other movies. almost as out there are sandler in punch drunk love.

Pretty much the same here. Don't remember where or why but I remember seeing a couple minutes of stranger than fiction and remember him not being completely obnoxious.

Jason the Magnificent - 12-23-2010 at 06:16 PM

Dude is hit and miss, has been in a bunch of hilarious shit, and some not so good stuff. His character on Eastbound and Down was fucking AMAZING.

Part of the genius of that movie is Ferrel and Reily are absolutely amazing with each other. Ricky Bobby was a terribly stupid concept that was only saved by those guys sharing screentime.

clevohardcore - 12-24-2010 at 09:59 AM

I watched The ballad of RB last night after visiting this post. That movie is nonstop laughter.

MikeResist - 12-24-2010 at 01:19 PM

His Harry Carey skits on SNL were awesome. I love when he was on weekend update and kept calling Colin Quinn, Norm.

Discipline - 12-24-2010 at 03:06 PM

I will never understand how people can like this guy.

I forgot about that shit. His Harry Carey stuff was almost as good as the Bob and Tom Harry Carey shit.
