Will Ferrell

Shaye526

I was sitting here and suddenly Will Ferrell popped into my head and I starting thinking about all the characters he's played in different movies he's been in. So let's take a poll and find out which one of those has been your favorite. I'm only listing those that have been the most popular and that I've actually seen.

i can't vote...it's a tie between buddy and ron burgundy

Ron Burgundy.  I usually don't like him when he plays the main character, but this movie cracks me up. 

AllAboutTheBenjamin

Buddy the Elf was pretty effin' classic - but since I do work in journalism, I have a special place in my heart for Ron Burgundy (?).

I cannot count how many times we've made Ron jokes in the studio.  It's just too much fun.

ETA - the Funny or Die site is pretty funny too.  The Landlord?  Hilarious.

Shaye526

Oh c'mon non-voters, just pick one!

AllAboutTheBenjamin

Step Brothers was good too... damn, I didn't see that option.  But I still vote for Ron

Def Buddy! I love Will. You forgot Night at the Roxbury! That one was good too.

Ahaha! Give me my money bitch! I need to go get my drink on!

Did  you see the other one? I think it's Good Cop, Baby Cop?

I chose Ricky Bobby, but  its a tie between that and Buddy.

AllAboutTheBenjamin

Oh yeah, the one where the baby slaps the guy around?  I dunno.  It was okay.  Not as good as The Landlord.

I despised Will Ferrell for a long time.  Then I saw Stranger Than Fiction and thought he wasn't all that bad. Then I saw Elf and fell in love. I can't get enough of that movie and watch it back to back around Christmas. Drives H nuts. The syrup on spaghetti gets me every time.

Then I saw that dinosaur/time travel movie and went back to hating him. And finally, I saw The Other Guys, which has again restored my faith. So the Ferrell and I have a love/hate relationship.

AllAboutTheBenjamin

Oh Seshat... what was that movie called?  The dinosaur time travel one... shiit.  I saw that one too.  Terrible.

I love Will Ferrell but I'm very selective in my love.  I too loved Stranger than Fiction but you couldn't pay me enough to watch Ricky Bobby.

I'm the lone voice of dissent. I can't stand Will Ferrell, but I really want to like him. Everyone likes him...I feel like I must be missing something.

I know it's not a movie, but we need to add his Ashley Schaeffer character from East Bound and Down.

He was great in Stranger than Fiction and The Other Guys - totally laugh out loud funny.

I love everything that man does.

Land of the Lost, I had to look it up.

I can't stand Ricky Bobby either. My brother and his friend still do the "shake ;n bake" thing. I also hate Old School. But Elf, I love me some Buddy.

Aahhh I love East Bound and Down.

"All I know is one of us had their own personal stylist and the other one shoplifts their sh!t from Fashion Bug." Not exactly a Will Ferrell quote but oh well.

staceytaylor0704

Stepbrothers was my pick.. although Buddy the elf was pretty friggin great too.
I loved The Other Guys,hilarious.

I voted for Ron Burgundy or Frank the Tank.  Elf was funny for sure, but I dunno, I just don't get into Christmas movies much for whatever reason, so that probably taints my opinion of him in Elf.

We saw Land of the Lost, holy horrific movie.  We were rolling laughing because it was so bad, and I'm surprised we got through all of it honestly.

Buddy!!

YES! I can always count on you for East Bound and Down love. It starts again in a couple weeks! Yay! Sidenote: FI and I were talking about something, don't remember what, and he looks at me and goes "Listen here, you beautiful biitch, I'm about to fuuck you up with some truth." I lost it.

I picked Brendan, but honestly I think I love all of them.  My dad HATES him, and I just don't understand how anyone can think he's not funny.

Buddy the Elf what's your favorite color?

TurtlesAllTheWayDown

I only like about half his characters. I said Ron Burgandy, but I freaking love Zoolander. "I invented the piano key necktie!" I also love when he says, "I feel like I'm taking crazy pills!"

I'm not a big fan of Elf, but my stepfather loves it.

J&K10910

Wow, I'm clearly in the very very small minority.

I LOVE that movie. It's totally underrated.

Out of the ones you posted I would say Frank The Tank. But the main one I liked is when he comes out in Night at the Roxbury
