Night at the Roxbury - Unique character that was unique even on SNL
Zoolander - Unique
Old School - Same
Elf - Unique
Anchorman - Same
Kicking and Screaming - Same
Bewitched - Unique
Talladega Nights - Same
Stranger Than Fiction - Unique
Blades of Glory - Same
Semi Pro - Same
Step Brothers - Same
Land of the Lost - Unique
The Other Guys - Unique
Everything Must Go - Unique
Casa Di Mi Padre - Unique
The Campaign - Same

He's 50-50. Half the time he plays the same character and half the time he doesn't. I'd say that's better than Zach Galifianakis and Seth Rogan. The bottom line though is...they're ****ing funny. If you don't find them funny so be it. I just hate the whole "he always plays the same guy" thing. Not everybody can be Gary ****ing Oldman.
