Comedy--Anchorman

But I may have to give it to the Star Wars movies. If what Lucas says is true, and all six are supposed to be viewed as one....then this thing is horribly over rated. Only IV and V were great movies if you ask me.

VI and III were OK. I and II were awful.

All of the Lord of the Rings flicks. I barely liked them, much less loved 'em.

I felt this way at first. But I watched 'em again. I still don't understand most of it.....but it is intriguing.

Old School was another one. I was told it was hilarious...but it was just a lot of nakedness. I don't know, why is random nakedness funny??

It is now apparant that this is one of NEZ's favorite movies. He brings it up quite often but tries to distance himself from it pretending to dislike it. When you talk about something that much, you like it. Come on NEZ, come sit at the cool table and talk about Anchorman with us....

How over dramatic can we get here?? The PREZ talks about Terrorism all the time...by that logic he secretly wants to hang in caves in Pakistan.

That is a sad table. I'll let you head up the sausage fest. I'll enjoy a real comedy like Some Like it Hot.

Some Like it Hot is fantastic. But that's neither here nor there. But you did make a good point:

The PREZ talks about terrorism all the time because he's obsessed with it.

The NEZ talks about Anchorman all the time because he's obsessed with it.

60 percent of the time NEZ likes Anchorman, every time.

:thumbup:

The PREZ has disdain for terrorism and wants to defeat it.

NEZ has disdain for Anchorman and wants all copies destroyed.

I'm gonna be a sweet politician. :thumbup:

How can you look at this and not laugh?

I'm starting to think that NEZ is dead inside.

I'll buy beer for you for an entire season if you tell me why that is funny.

1. Four grown men in suits engaging in fisticuffs, in an alley, with four other grown men in suits.

2. The weapons of choice; revolver, table leg, brass knuckeles (x2) and a hand grenade.

3. Mustaches

4. Pinky rings

Paul Rudd, Will Ferrell, David Koechner, and Steve Carell.


THAT is funny.

Not to mention that is the scene that almost everyone likes, even those that dislike the movie like Chap. The NewsBrawl is great. But you didn't see that part.

Because I like both of those movies. A great deal. A great great deal.


Do you like musical films at all, or do you just dislike these two?

That's goofy, not funny. If goofy counts for anything......then my shenanigans in the mall must be hilarious to you guys.

Offer stands.....I'll brew all the Irish Stout you two can drink if you can:

a) explain the humor
b) get a remote chuckle out of me.

I do not mind musicals, just believe that these two are overrated.

West Side story was great
Moulin Rouge was ok.

These two were overrated IMO.

I thought about adding Pulp Fiction. I think that it was good enough to not be included on this list though.

Just because you say a movie is over rated doesn't mean you think it sucks.

I think Star Wars is horribly over rated.....but it by no means sucks.

I agree with Pulp Fiction only because so many people call it the best movie of the 90's...it wasn't even better than Resevoir Dogs.

Although PF is very high on my list, I can see your point. I think with a lot of these movies, the masses of asses back them so hard and never shut up about them, that it detracts from the actual film itself. And although I have always liked QT, nothing about him is truely original, moreso just a fantastic display of "here is what I know about movies from watching years and years of random s--t!".
