People always said Will Ferrell made John C. Reilly, but let’s be real, JCR is the real talent between the two.

We must be looking at different internets, because this thread is literally the first time that I had ever heard of the movie.



I have no doubt, that as someone who reads things on the internet instead of indiscriminately shouting about headlines here without bothering to read the content, that you're right - my internet usage is probably quite different from many on TD.

But if you've been on any of instagram, Facebook, or even Spotify, or if you read any websites that report movie news and trailers, you likely just scrolled past it. Netflix is occasionally using a promotional still that makes will Ferrell look like early 2000s Val Kilmer, which is odd. Without close inspection it also looks like some European garbage that wouldn't interest many here.

Are you claiming moral high ground as to why you've heard about a Will Ferrell Netflix movie... and not meaning that as a joke?

Reilly is the superior actor, without a doubt.

I watched Downhill in the theater. It was barely watchable.

For anyone thinking about watching it, I'd say don't bother.

I watched Eurovision last night and thought it was pretty funny.

Eurovision I watched tonight and it actually wasn't that bad. A couple of the songs could legitemetly be pop hits today.

Stranger Things,


The first (and in my humble opinion best) season of Stranger Things just suddenly appeared out of nowhere on Netflix as I recall. With the later seasons they've hyped it up but Netflix as a whole does a poor job of getting people interested in upcoming projects.

I mean that’s not really amazing. That’s how comedy works. Everyone has an expiration date, especially when you’re talking about comedy movies.

Almost every major movie comedian has had a similar abrupt end to their run and usually have followed it up with similarly bad attempts to regain that magic

I don’t think he’s funny. He’s just loud and obnoxious.

He makes a lot of shitty movies. And this is coming from someone that didn't hate Land Of The Lost.


I feel bad for anyone that doesn’t find land of the lost funny.
