Will Ferrel's done some awful stuff, but I've never seen an Adam Sandler movie even remotely as funny as Anchorman.

I despised Anchorman. Didn't find it the slightest bit funny.

If you edited Anchorman down to include only all of the Steve Carell lines it would be the funniest movie ever. I did find the movie as a whole to be a little more than slightly funny...but not much more.

True, it was Will Ferrell's typical over the top acting that turned me off. I honestly haven't seen it since it first came out so would be interesting to see if my opinion of it has changed.

Carell is an absolute genius, though. Office for example, he shines. Anchorman was abysmal, I thought, and the only thing Ferrell has done remotely noteworthy is Step Brothers(for what it is), and a few SNL skits. Everything else he's done has been garbage.

Al Pacino = God
