I think Will Ferrell is funny especially in Blades of Glory, probably my favorite movie of his just for some of the lines. Chazz Michael Michaels was a hilarious character, also the only skater to win 4 national championships and an adult film award.

Sometimes I like watching stupid humor and Will Ferrell is pretty good at stupid humor.

He was awesome on Saturday Night Live (Celebrity Jeopardy ftw!!) but has sucked at everything since he left.

I have mixed feelings about will ferrel. He's done alot of movies i hate like taladaga nights. He seems to be part of this movement of unfunny movies about strange pricks that folks seem to enjoy these days. If you don't know what i'm talking about just think of any movie staring ben stiller. this movement is killing comedy and i dispise any actor thats a part of it.

On the other hand Will Ferrel has also done a few things that i find truely excellent. Stranger than Fiction saw him playing a very subuded role compared to his other films. rather than being loud and obnoxious he plays a quite sensitive chracter that i enjoyed watching.

He was also halarious in the remake of The Producer, of course if Mel Brooks couldn't make him funny then no one could.

So unlike hacks like owen willson or ben stiller who have proven time and again that all they make is akward or annoying shit, Will Ferrel is capable of great things. He just needs to start picking better movies. He has a new one coming out that i can't remeber the name of but it seems like a spoof on cop buddy films so will see how that turns out.

I liked him better with Chris Kattan, as a team. (I am thinking of the right person, aren't I?)

I think he sometimes tries too hard to be funny simply by making loud noises and acting weirdly. The only thing that he's done that's made me laugh hard is the way he stabbed himself in the leg in That Film With The Really Awkward Name That I Can't Remember Right Now.

Drunk Spelling Nazis ftw. You're lucky I'm in a good enough mood to not start on the grammar and punctuation.

OT: Will Ferrell Sucks! Whomever convinced him that he could be funny without the Saturday Night Live writers should be shot, hanged, burnt, crucified, drawn and quartered and then hung on display in Hollywood to let the rest of that giant pack of useless schmucks know what's waiting for them.

He's funny now and then, but like 95% of comedians out there, he's also very annoying.....-_-

Some people (Marter) think he is a sub-par actor. I say nay good sir, he is, in fact, one of the funniest people in the universe. Who can't laugh at Ron Burgundy or Ricky Bobby? Nobdy (reference), that's who.

What do you guys think of this person?
I've only found him funny on the Jeopardy SNL skits... but that was mostly attributed to "Sean Connery".

He's great in small doses.
Anchorman and Taledega Nights are probably in my top ten list for comedies.
But his constant shouting can get annoying.
And please, for the love of God, Will, keep your damn clothes on in your next movie!!

The poll options aren't very good. I thinks he's all right. Not awesome, not sub-par
True. For me he ranges between extremes of HILARITY and UTTER-SHITE.

I thought the pearl sketch was funny.

You're right there. My opinions on both of them are pretty much identical. Actually, Ben Stiller deserves a few more expletives. He didn't play Alex Trebec on SNL's Celebrity Jeopardy.

He doesn't make me laugh, and he's always pretty poor as a character.

Even though my opinion has already been stated. >_>
This. He's a terrible actor.
