Top 5
Allen Gamble, The Other Guys - I really liked this movie, I probably shouldn't have, but I really did. The combo of Will Ferrell and Mark Wahlberg should not have worked, but somehow it did.Chazz Michael Michaels, Blades of Glory - A highly underrated movie. Will's take as a flamboyant ice skater was perfect and while Jon Heder isn't particularly funny, Will made up for it.
Buddy, Elf - Such a dumb movie, such a funny movie. Two fun tidbits - it was directed by Iron Man director, Jon Favreau and Tyrion Lannister himself (Peter Dinklage) was in it.
Frank, Old School - This was the movie that you could say launched his career. He had done other stuff up until this one, but this was the one I truly believe got everyone's attention.
Mugatu, Zoolander - Oddly enough, this might have been my favorite of Will's characters. Maybe it was because I loved this movie, but more likely it was because he was so over-the-top and nailed this role.
Bottom 5
Ron Burgundy, Anchorman - Seriously, take out Steve Carrell's Brick and this movie would have been awful. I thought Will's character was stupid and I will not apologize for it.Dr. Rick Marshall, Land of Lost - What a piece of garbage. Nothing about this thing was funny other than Danny McBride and even he couldn't save it.
Jack Wyatt, Bewitched - What made them think that Will Ferrell was the right fit for a romantic comedy? Lots and lots of cocaine I assume.
Steve Butabi, A Night at the Roxbury - Of all of Will's great SNL characters, they picked this one! Why?!?
Jackie Moon, Semi-Pro - I just don't see Will Ferrell as athletic and they tried to pass him off as a basketball player. Nope.
"If this was in a movie, he definitely would have made the list." |
