Will Ferrell Movies...

...SUCK. I hate that guy. For the life of me, I can't understand how people can enjoy that guy and his crappy movies. Watching Elf made me a dumber person. Seriously.

Feelings on Will Ferrell and his movies?

You're not alone. I honestly don't find him funny either. I know a lot of people do, and I just cannot comprehend why. I started to think that maybe it's just my oh-so-low-sense-of-humor kickin' it up a notch again, but no...I find many actors and actresses hilarious. Just not Will Ferrell.

Not true, sir! Will Ferrell's mere presence ruins movies! Except Wedding Crashers. It shames me to admit that Will Ferrell was funny in that one. He only played a supporting role, though.

Random sport + Will Ferrell = Shitfest movie worth millions.

Oh, thank god someone FINALLY agrees with me. I swear, every person I've come across absolutely ADORES Will Ferrell movies. Honestly, I don't find any of them funny, and they all seem to be the same to me. I hate the actor, the nature of the movies, the jokes... everything. Well, maybe not hate, but heavily dislike. I generally despise comedy movies in general, but his movies take the cake.

I just find his humor to be horribly mediocre. I'd much rather watch Carlos Mencia do stand-up, and that's saying something.

Phew. I'm glad some of you guys don't care for him. I was afraid I'd get heavily outnumbered by Will Ferrell fans. Happens most everywhere else.

It confuses me to no end. Will Ferrell isn't talented. He isn't funny. He isn't entertaining. He isn't even pleasant to look at. There is ZERO reason for him to be on our television screens...unless our society consists solely of people who enjoy watching hideous, untalented, unfunny people get rich off poor movies.

At least Semi Pro didn't do well at the box office. Maybe people are seeing the light.

Eek, I actually found his extra role in Wedding Crashers annoying. They really could've done the movie without him, but that's just me.

Actually, there's one where I kinda found him funny in. It's not a movie, but merely a comedic act in one of those MTV awards thing that they do each year. I'm talking about the Matrix spoof one (2003), where they had Justin Timberlake and Seann William Scott. Ferrell did pretty well there, saying random things and all. It actually made me laugh a little.

I like some movies that Will Ferrell is in, but I tend to hate all Will Ferrell Movies.

I mean seriously... I'd rather watch Star Trek.

Anchorman is one of my least favorites

I like Talladega Nights alot, and I love his role as Federal Wildlife Marshal in Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back.....but aside from those roles, I really don't care for the guy. He's loud, obnoxious and a dumbass. Ugh, and have any of you seen his commercials for Apple? Further proof that Apple targets idiots when they market their crap.

There's a misconception held by many people that will ferrell himself is funny. Movie makers also labour this misapprehension. Thus we have unfunny will ferrell movies.

I think he can be funny and he can act. Talladega nights, for example, he wasn't the likeable guy he normally is, but an arrogant obnoxious guy, and he does that quite well. Old school I also like and he is quite good in.

It's when Will ferrell is to be the main actor providing humour that I think his movies tend to be unfunny.
