Will Ferrell On Center Stage On Arizona Satellite Tv
With the latest Will Ferrell and Adam McKay film in theaters, its a good time to take a look back at some of their earlier collaborations. Anchorman was the film they made which introduced us to Ron Burgundy, the man who recommends that San Diego stay classy. Yet this film is only one of the pit stops in a tour of the great career of Will Ferrell, whose characters continue to make us howl with laughter. Here are his five best films, now playing in HD on Arizona satellite TV.
1. Old School. Ferrell was in many ways that crazy guy from Saturday Night Live before he hit it big with this film and Elf (which came out the same year). Hes a nerdy dude who is married and has left his days as a frat boy far behind him. When friend Luke Wilson decides to move in with the guys on the campus of their old school, happy days are here again. See this modern classic in HD on HBO networks.
2. Elf. This film, along with Old School, set the Will Ferrell train running and it hasnt stopped since. Will plays a very large elf who is forced to live his life as a freak of nature amongst Santas crew on the North Pole. When it turns out that hes actually been adopted and his real father is James Caan, a trip to New York is in order. This Jon Favreau picture has become a holiday favorite and is Ferrell at his best.
3. Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy. Ferrell had already shown that he could play an arrogant, ignorant misogynist with the best of them, but he and director McKay pushed it to the limit. Youll see a Whos Who of modern comedic actors, with Vince Vaughn, Steve Carell, Paul Rudd and Jack Black on board, but its Ferrell who keeps the laughs coming. When he isnt working on his guns, hes showing off his flute skills at the jazz club. See this picture on premium satellite TV networks in Arizona.
4. Wedding Crashers. Its a short but sweet part for Ferrell, whose character Chazz is often referred to but not seen until late in the film. Hes the spiritual leader of the crashers, a visionary who lives with mother and rides his skateboard to funerals in search of conquests. Ferrells entry is legendary, while his repeated calling for Meatloaf! will make even the most jaded viewer howl with laughter. Check out this comedy classic in high definition on HBO.
5. Talladega Nights: the Ballad of Ricky Bobby. Ferrell running across a racetrack screaming Help me, God! Help me, Tom Cruise! is enough to get anyone going, but its the seriousness of his performance which makes the film work. Lets just say the absurd is embraced early on and never let go for the entire picture. Ferrells status as the king of the wild comedy was cemented with this picture, a title never relinquished.
