Anchorman-The legend of Ron Burgundy ANY GOOD?

standbyme

Is this film any good or should i watch something safe like Theres Something about Mary on UTV?

I would go with There's Something About Mary. Didn't like Anchorman, but most people did. Not for my tastes. Will Ferrell doesn't do it for me.

Something about Mary is a great flick, I turned anchorman off after 10 mins when I rented it, but lots of people liked it.

Yeah i never understood Talladega Nights Raising Arizona is on now BBC1 LONDON, is on now-hilarious.

Thanks for the ideas as that was BBC NI i had on & checked the other ch's then & found out this gem.

I think Will Ferell is a special package-you either Love him or hate him.Love him myself

Personally ,I think Anchorman ,along with Borat,Old School and Clerks 2 ,is one of the funniest movies of this decade

Good night for movies on the English BBC1 last night. Pity I was working today so couldn't watch Raising Arizona.

It was worth staying up late to watch it , hard to believe its 20yrs old!

Here are a few memorable quotes from the film

Also Starring LeVar Burton

Why is this in television? It clearly belongs in film...

That bit where brian fantanna puts on the panther aftershave, "its banned in 7 countries" and some girl shouts "omg it smells like bigfoots dick"

Shouldn't have gone in here, whether it was on telly at the time or not as the thread will become dated here and most likey get sent to the recycle bin (hopefully actually - no offense, but it's just clogging up the first page of televisionisms), whereas in the film section it would have lasted a hell of a lot longer. It's a great film, but not for the TV section.

Fantana "thay say 60% of the time, it works every time"

the film is pure legend.

aequinoctium
