WTF is wrong with you people?


Look, it's 2013. If you haven't realized by now that you don't think Will Ferrell is funny, then you should just move along and stop posting how stupid you think this movie is.

IT'S MEANT TO BE STUPID. IT'S ABSURD. THAT'S THE TYPE OF COMEDY THIS IS.

There are no plotholes, it's just one absurd juxtaposition after another. And that's why it's funny. And if you don't get that, if that doesn't make you laugh, fine, but stop pointing that out to the rest of us, because we don't give a sh!t.

Some people thought Monty Python wasn't funny. Some people don't like Robin Williams. And some people don't like Will Ferrell's brand of insanity. All of this is fine, but comedy is subjective. If you don't get it, you just have to cross that particular brand of comedy off of your list. But going on and on about the current state of comedy, about why Will Ferrell sucks, it isn't going to effect any of us who do think this is funny. It's not as if we're going to all of a sudden going to agree with you and stop laughing.

So, for the TL;DR crowd, here's my message: just shut the f@ck up.

I wish there was a "Like" button on IMDb.

For now, my post will just be: "I agree completely."

Thanks.

2013, and he's still not funny. How long will it take?






Get me a bromide! And put some gin in it!

See people, this is exactly the kind of low-grade moron I'm talking about - someone who just trolls these Will Ferrell movie boards when they already know that they don't like his comedy.

Dude, get a life. Go troll somewhere else. We don't need you here.

I've tried. The only movie of his I like is "Elf".

Hey, Tresix. So you keep on going back to the well, when you know it's empty?

Look, I've made this same mistake myself - with Merchant/Ivory films. To me, they are the most goddawful movies ever made. All of them. But I kept on going back to them, again, and again, for what - the stars? the production values? the period furniture? And I have only myself to blame for getting sucked in by another one, when I know what I'm getting.

But you don't hear me going on and on about it. All right, I did go on and on about it - but in real life, to my wife, not on these boards! (Because she is a dedicated Anglophile, and loved M/I movies.) That's all I'm saying.

This is the first comment I've ever posted about Ferrell.

Oh, no, I'm not trying to say that you're posting frequently about this. But some people are. They're going from Ferrell movie to Ferrell movie, and trashing him. Once - fine. But after seeing his movies and getting his humor, why would someone keep on watching his movies? I leaned my lesson with Merchant/Ivory, and fortunately, one of them died, so I never have to deal with it again. Why can't others learn their lesson that Ferrell humor is what it is, and won't change?

…fortunately, one of them died…


Damn! You don't like the movies, fine. But do you actually take pleasure in a filmmaker's death?!

Have you ever seen a Merchant/Ivory movie? His death has done the world an incredible service.

And yes, I'm completely kidding. I'm sure he was a lovely man.

I've seen some. Some are better than others.

will ferrell is not funny.

all of his movies have plotholes, they dont make any sense when you apply logic.

Will ferrell's comedy is ruining the future of comedy because he exists for dumb people to laugh at. If he keeps making movies all of comedy will suffer and in 10 years all we will have is poop joke movies.

reply

Benmasta, I'm not a big Ferrell fan, but I think you may need a nap. Calm down, please!

See, Tresix, this guy is exactly what I'm talking about - coming to Will Ferrell movie boards just to trash talk. It's not as if Ferrell's got four different types of comedy, and he switches it up. Nope, it's just the same stupid idiot kind of humor, everytime, which I love - but these people still keep coming anyway.

hahahahahahaha oh man jgroup you are such a rube.

Jgroub, anchorman2 launched in Dublin last night with great noise and hype.
I came onto Imdb to remind myself about the first one.
I don't watch many movies but tried Anchorman the original. Your defence of Ferrel is admirable but I think misguided
It really had nothing to offer me whatsoever.
I presume the second half is hilarious, I didn't make it.

That stated, your byline from the vapours is a curiosity. I think Will Ferrell could have written the song. A clear pastime.

reply

This movie is so stupid. Its not even funny. Its just really hard to watch. What type of people find this funny? Am i too smart to get the humor or am I too stupid to get the humor?

Virgins. I love em. No diseases, no loose as a goose pussy, no skank. No nothin. Just pure pleasure!

reply

Go f@ckk yourself with your limp opinion. This movie sucks and it has nothing to do with it being a certain style. To compare it with Python, wow, you are the lame one. Its pretty obvious that this was just thrown together thinking the comedic talent hired for the movie would just pull it off. The dialogue sucked, most of the jokes sucked. I will say that I understand every one you make isn't gong to hit it out of the park. Ferrell has made me laugh out loud before, just not in this movie.

reply

I'd like to go f@ck myself with my limp opinion. Mebbe you could show me how to get it hard first?

I can enjoy mndless humor. I love Beavis and Butthead... but this film was just boring.

THIS needs to be re-posted on EVERY board on this site

THANK YOU
