Oh look someone's popular better bash everything he does instead of just the mediocre stuff like a normal person.

Being jaded and dull is great and all but Will Farrell really is awful.

If you can't admit Anchorman is funny, then I have no wish to know you. Comedy doesn't _have_ to be intelligent just because the person watching it could be.

No, but typically when it's awful, the people who like it are awful.

His characters in Anchorman and Oldschool were very very very different. I know what you mean, but bad examples.

Pft. I only like indie comedy that you guys have probably never heard of. I mean, I liked Will Farrell's early stuff (before he sold out), but that's really hard to get a hold of now.

A lot of what made the original Anchorman great was that in spite of the surreal humor it was all centered around a fairly grounded plot about a woman breaking into a male-dominated field. I'm afraid that a sequel will either rehash that plot or ignore it entirely to he film's detriment in either case.

Technically, there's already 2 Anchorman films. The original 2-disc version of the DVD contained an entire second movie called "Wake Up, Ron Burgundy" which was created by editing together cut footage and an entire subplot that was removed from the original film. It's actually not bad, and pretty fills the need for an Anchorman sequel. I'm also one of those who thinks Anchorman worked in spite of the people involved with it, not because of. Judd Apatow is shit.

Seems like every other apatow movie has the same plot as Step Brothers. Talented but unfocused nobodies go through an hour of ad-lib comedy scenes chosen at random, then the main character seems to lose everything but still accomplishes some sort of goal, then flash forward a few months showing him somehow running his own business based on whatever stupid hobby that was showcased in the first 20 minutes of the movie.
