Am I the only person to know that Anchorman was gash

...and Anchorman 2 will be twice as bad? Never got the Will Ferrel thing. Elf was awful. HE'S JUST NOT FUNNY IS HE? These films are for people who eat at Nando's and still use Lynx.

Thank God I'm not the only one. Hated Anchorman and find Will Ferrell about as funny as Miranda Hart. i.e. not very

I hate Nando's. But Anchorman was very funny, as this will probably be. One of those films where you can tell they had tonnes of fun filming it, and it shines through.

Steve Carrell and Will Ferrell are both very naturally funny guys, and to compare either to CBBC's Miranda Hart is like comparing Gandhi to HITLER.

You know one of those things where you just cannot see it, I just don't get how either of those people are funny.

Who do you consider funny in the films?

As far as I can remember I can't think of one person that is consistently funny. Most comedians give a great performance every once in a while. Except Will Ferrel.

Never found Carell funny in the American Office? I acknowledge it's quite a brash, in your face humour that is juvenile at times, I'm guessing you're not a fan of The Hangover or South Park either?

South Park can be funny but that has some wit behind it, Will Ferrel staring into camera and pulling a gormless face just doesn't cut the mustard for me I'm afraid. Steve Carrel was very good in Dan In Real Life when he wasn't trying to be Mr "Look, Funny. Everyone, look, I'm a wacky guy being Funny. Aren't I? See Funny guys. Funny?"

How DARE you, Elf is a CLASSIC.

What films do you find funny Nibble?

Well, the ones that did it before only better. Plains, trains and Automobiles for example. Of late, I found In Bruges very funny.

Well comedy as a film genre means most people tend to have a comedian actor who suits their style of humour and they will tend to enjoy their films.

Well, as I explained. I don't. You live in Australia, the chances of you knowing much about comedy are slim at best.
