Anyone going to see "Talladega Nights"?

Will Ferrell as the top NASCAR driver who is dumb as a stump and Sacha Baron Cohen, (Ali G), as the French/gay F1 driver who somehow upstages him?

God, this sounds stupid. I can't wait.

Will Ferrell was the MC (guy who got to say: "Gentlemen, start your engines!") at the NASCAR race I went to last month. They had a whole merchandise trailer of Ricky Bobby stuff there...

Huge Will Ferrell fan so this movie is a must see for me. I love the slapstick.

Love his kids' names in the movie... Walker and Texas Ranger. It looks pretty funny, I'm planning on seeing it.

It'll be good and funny, and we could all use a good laugh about now.

I would have to agree with you on this issue Denis

I'll likely see it, but am lowering my expectations. I had very high expectations for Ron Burgundy, and it didn't live up to them. I think WF is funny, but for whatever reason is isn't quite as funny as he *seems* like he should be...

Christ, I think he's hilarious. Did you see Zoolander?

YMMV.

like I said, I think he's funny. It is just that in some roles he just misses being drop-dead funny...for me....and i'm not sure why.

ELF was the one that I had high hopes for and it let me down. Ron Burgandy did to some extent.

I'm with Todd on this one. But I'll still see it and laugh my a** off!

Speaking of Cristina Applegate did you ever see The Sweetest Thing? One of my favorite movies.

Old School with Vince? Earmuffs kids!!!

Will Ferrel crack me up. The "best of" from SNL is hilarious.

I'll wait for the video as I don't like sitting in the theatre with sticky floors and people with wicked B.O. nearby...

Mugatu was hilarious...yes.

I wasn't interested until I saw a clip on Leno. If the rest is half as funny it'll be worth the price of admission.
