First anchorman a classic but all his apperences and commercials are getting annoying, not even funny, almost forced by the studio

actually, he was retarded in anchorman....the commercials seem more clever....so in my case, it's more funny than before....but still only in small doses....commercial funny, skit not, movie never

The marketing is working, my wife thought the first one was retarded but really wants to see the sequel now.

I'm with you. These commercials are garbage.

I guess you need a massive marketing campaign when the movie itself looks extremely passable.

Anchorman was pretty funny

The new one looks absolutely dreadful

I don't know how you can say this one looks bad after saying the first was great. They look exactly the same.

Will Ferrell is like Robin Williams and Jim Carrey. Funny in small doses, but too much of him grates on the nerves.

I never really found Will Ferrell that funny in the first place.

his harry carray skit was kinda funny for 2 minutes... but generally went on for five more

which is probably the story for almost all of his material... develop a single possibly funny idea and beat it into the ground for the next half a decade.

I never got the Ferrell craze, never laughed at his antics once.

The only movie I actually enjoyed was Elf

People who don't like Ferrell are either old, not funny, or are the type of people who don't like popular things just bc they're popular

You probably fall into the other category.

I'm not a huge Ferrell fan but I do love some Elf, Anchorman, Talledega Nights, and Step Brothers. I even enjoyed the Campaign but he has made some garbage as well

Talladega Nights was the only movie that he was the lead I thought was funny. Elf was dreadful. Anchorman was extremely average.
Ferrell is like most one-note comics. Good in small doses.

Or maybe Ferrell really isn't actually funny.
