Anchorman is a riot! I love the entire cast of this movie. Everyone in it is so funny on their own, so to put them all in one movie was all most too much for me. (See: adult diapers)
I don't care for SNL, but Will Ferrell is a comedic genius. Steve Carell is funny in a whole new way unlike his The Office character. I know I'd seen David Koechner (Sports Reporter, Champ Kind) somewhere, but I couldn't place him. It wasn't until looking up the link for Anchorman that I noticed he'd been in The Office and The 40 Year Old Virgin. So he's been working with the same basic crew for a while now. As for Paul Rudd... call me. ;-)
And how can I forget Christina Applegate... Or shoud I call her Tits McGee. Classy.
This movie was defintely as good as expectations. I need to buy this movie because if I'm ever feeling blue, this would be the kind of movie to perk me up right away. The overall campiness of it, is so good. Having been born in the 70s, but really only barely remembering what TV newscasters were actually like, this bring it all screaming back to me in vivid technicolor.
If for some reason you've managed to avoid this movie. I'd question why and then instruct you to see it immediately!
