Bye week OT: New Anchorman Trailer
New international trailer for Anchorman 2, which I cannot wait to see. Looks a bit repetitive but I laughed, I have a high tolerance level for Ron Burgundy and friends.

Boy, that escalated quickly
October 23rd, 2013 at 11:07 AM ^
Even the Dodge commercials are hilarious, great move by them
October 23rd, 2013 at 11:09 AM ^
How many sticks of gum can you fit in your glovebox?
October 23rd, 2013 at 11:36 AM ^
GUM FOR DAYS
October 23rd, 2013 at 11:09 AM ^
"Nope."
October 23rd, 2013 at 11:09 AM ^
they didn't show all the funniest parts. trailers for comedy's have a tendency to do that.
October 23rd, 2013 at 12:23 PM ^
Exactly my issue and reason for posting what I did below about a minute prior to reading your post.
October 23rd, 2013 at 11:14 AM ^
I suppose we can let a few of these through on a bye week....
The clip of them smoking crack on the set made me laugh out loud. Maybe that makes me a terrible person..."That is JUST refreshing!"
October 23rd, 2013 at 11:21 AM ^
I usually don't get out to see many movies in theatre. I'll be making the trip to see this one. I love Ron Burgandy.
October 23rd, 2013 at 11:32 AM ^
I generally don't go to movies, just because for the most part they were terrible for so long. But I thought the last Avengers movie was incredible, and looking at some other trailers I wonder if the renaissance we've seen in television/cable writing is working its way through movieland.
Burgundy is exempt from all that, of course. He's his own island.
October 23rd, 2013 at 12:24 PM ^
The "last" Avengers movie? As opposed to the one prior to it?
October 23rd, 2013 at 12:26 PM ^
That one sucked.
October 23rd, 2013 at 12:29 PM ^
OK fine, but I'm sure that is now what that guy was talking about.
October 23rd, 2013 at 12:30 PM ^
That's his story and he's sticking to it.
October 23rd, 2013 at 12:35 PM ^
Well, alright then.
October 23rd, 2013 at 12:38 PM ^
one could make an argument that any of the Iron Man, Captain America or Hulk films are "Avenger" films, since they are, like, Avengers and stuff
October 23rd, 2013 at 12:42 PM ^
Well yeah, I get that.
October 23rd, 2013 at 12:46 PM ^
Cap was actually "Captain America: The First Avenger." Though they did that so they could just call it "The First Avenger" internationally and not "Captain America," not because they wanted to tie it into the movie.
October 23rd, 2013 at 8:45 PM ^
The first trailer for "Captain America:The Winter Soldier" comes out tomorrow.
October 23rd, 2013 at 1:40 PM ^
October 23rd, 2013 at 5:30 PM ^
I'm glad you didn't walk out of an in-flight movie.
October 23rd, 2013 at 9:15 PM ^
That's like comparing The Girl Next Door to The Girl Next Door.
October 23rd, 2013 at 12:44 PM ^
As I indicated, I don't go to movies much.
October 23rd, 2013 at 11:27 AM ^
October 23rd, 2013 at 11:27 AM ^
for all you f**kers to run this new material right into the ground for the next five years
October 23rd, 2013 at 11:48 AM ^
I am Ron Burgundy?
October 23rd, 2013 at 12:12 PM ^
That's what she said.
October 23rd, 2013 at 12:24 PM ^
That no other comedy made in recent times has as many memorable lines?
Hollywood needs to get on its game. We can't be quoting Airplane, Caddyshack, Fletch, and The Big Lebowski forever. We need fresh blood.
October 23rd, 2013 at 4:47 PM ^
October 23rd, 2013 at 5:02 PM ^
And don't call me Shirley*.
(*works better if it had been "surely" first)
October 23rd, 2013 at 12:28 PM ^
Can I jokingly tell you to shut your whore mouth?
October 23rd, 2013 at 11:37 AM ^
I would totally buy The Hooded Stranger.
October 23rd, 2013 at 11:41 AM ^
man myself.
October 23rd, 2013 at 11:43 AM ^
I think we can all admit though, that the best choice is Sleeve it to Beaver.
October 23rd, 2013 at 11:53 AM ^
I'm still afraid this one's going to suck and kind of ruin the first Anchorman. They had a good thing there, hopefully they don't kill it
October 23rd, 2013 at 11:58 AM ^
October 23rd, 2013 at 12:25 PM ^
American Pie 2 is without a doubt the best in that franchise. That is a good example.
October 23rd, 2013 at 12:29 PM ^
I think they realized his other characters were funnier than Austin Powers and gave us more of Dr. Evil and the rest.
Sorta a comedy, but I'd give it to Shrek 2 over 1 also.
October 23rd, 2013 at 12:32 PM ^
Not a comedy (obviously) but Godfather II is exponentially better than I. Best movie ever made IMO.
And III sucks balls.
October 23rd, 2013 at 12:36 PM ^
Actually, I don't know that I'd say at all. Because I prefer Brando to DeNiro, and I think the end mirrors the first too much. But the argument can and has successfully been made.
But if we were going outside of comedy we could probably find lots of them. The Empire Strikes Back. Lots of superhero movies (X-Men 2, Spiderman 2, The Dark Knight). Etc. I think it's harder to do in comedy because comedy is fresh and new laughs, rather than storytelling, so the original has an advantage.
October 23rd, 2013 at 12:44 PM ^
X2 is still the best XMEN movie, althought I feel that Days of Future Past may finally dethrone it.
October 23rd, 2013 at 8:48 PM ^
Aliens.
October 23rd, 2013 at 9:16 PM ^
October 23rd, 2013 at 12:53 PM ^
National Lampoon Christmas Vacation was pretty damn funny and maybe better than the original.
Not many to chose from though - sequels in general suck and comedy sequels suck most of all.
October 23rd, 2013 at 1:02 PM ^
That was even the threequel with European Vacation in-between.
A Shot in the Dark is better regarded than The Pink Panther and has a lot of the things we associate with the films introduced.
October 23rd, 2013 at 3:35 PM ^
Wow. GF II is exponentially better? I agree it is probably the best sequel in the history or movies, however, the original Godfather is probably the best movie ever made, so . . . .
October 23rd, 2013 at 5:18 PM ^
Whoaaa, I don't know about all that! Both are great and I leave it at that, myself.
October 25th, 2013 at 7:18 AM ^
Godfather III gets such a bad rap because as a sequel it gets compared to two of the best movies ever made. Godfather III when compared to most other films that come out of Hollywood, it's not too bad.
It does provide quantitative and definitive proof that Sofia Coppola should stick to directing and never, ever, take a shot at acting again.....ever.
