Another Will Farrell underrated classic is 'Night at the roxbury' lol Also Wills line "Well, that escalated quickly" has become one of the funniest memes ever.
I swear I feel like that line integrated into our society because of this movie lol. Like I still hear this line from people sometimes, even if they have no idea what Anchorman is. This film is so quotable
The part where Baxter is barking at the bear and the bear is roaring is supposed to have subtitles. Too bad it didn’t show up on your copy. Great reaction gentlemen. I love this movie and it was super fun to see experience it for the first time.
The part that I thought was the craziest is the end credits when they show how much CEO salaries and benefits skyrocketed while normal workers got hardly anything

I was a sophomore in high school and I went with friends to see this, the whole theater was cracking up, I don't think I've ever laughed as hard at a movie since
This in 2004 and Old School coming out earlier in 2003 solidified Will Farrell as a movie star. I saw both movies in the theater twice, they were that much fun.
This movie is a gem. It’s like combining the outlandish “Airplane” in the setting of the boy’s club mentality of 1970s newsrooms. So glad you guys enjoyed it and yes, Baxter rules! 😎👍
It's really fascinating how the original plot for this movie was about news reporters stranded on a deserted island with violent monkeys, and eventually turned into this
For being his first major feature film, Judd Apatow hit a home run with this one. Any of his movies are pretty much guaranteed hilarity. 40 Year Old Virgin Forgetting Sarah Marshall Knocked Up I Love You Man Bridesmaids Talladega Nights Step Brothers Superbad So yeah, start with those. 👍😊
A classic in the world of dumb comedies! I'm a bit surprised you haven't done Stepbrothers with Ferrell and John C. Reilly, as brothers it would be hilarious to see you guys watch that!
I just love the random battle in the middle of the movie! I think they took a similar approach here to "Snakes on a Plane", asking, "What would be outrageous and fun to do?" and it worked!
I was surprised the guys weren’t laughing more at that scene. My friends and I were absolutely howling in that part. This movie has tons of great scenes though.
Just so much fun! The waterskiing squirrel actually was a feel good news story back in the day. And then there's the yazz flute - hey Aqualung! Love you guys!!
I've always loved the detail that when Brian says the news team has been at the bar the entire time Ron has - it's true, they are actually right there in the background in the preceding scenes.
I forgot Baxter and Ron wore matching pjs AND headgear. 🤣 Plus, I'm pretty sure the name Mantooth comes from Randall Mantooth, one of the stars of Emergency!, a show in the 70s.
I remember watching this movie with a group of friends when it came to DVD and I don't think any of us have laughed harder than we did when Jack Black punted Baxter. Also, I can't hear Kansas' "Carry On Wayward Son" without thinking about SUPERNATURAL.
Anchorman is one of those movies for me that I didn’t love the first time I watched it but after subsequent viewings, it quickly became one of my favorite comedies of all time. much of the movie doesn’t make sense and is random but that’s the point and it’s hilarious. so many quotable moments and just a crew of top tier comedians at their peak. “the man punted Baxterrrr!!” “it’s so hot! milk was a bad choice…” and “you are a whole wheel of cheese? wow! I’m. or even mad, that’s just impressive!”those are just a few of my favorite lines 😂
The Other Guys and Blades of Glory are 2 of my fave Will Ferrell movies, if you're looking to continue with his movies. PS I have to say, the more times I watched this, the funnier it got. I looked a lot like you guys during the tv anchor fight scene - now it's my favorite part of the movie.
The fight scene was an excuse to get all of their famous friends hilarious cameos. There was Vince Vaughn leading the no. 2 news team, Luke Wilson leading his team and losing his arm, Tim Robbins from Shawshank leading the PBS team and Ben Stiller leading the Latino news team.
This movie was so hilarious, for no reason at all,my favorite part was the news,anchors fight in the alley, well that escalated quickly, lol.great reaction.
Anchorman is my fav comedy ever. I love Will Farrell. I think ya'll were expecting a more sofisticated comedy. But this is pure silly, slapstick. I literally laugh at the same jokes everytime. And the sequel is funny too.
This is Will Ferrell’s baby. This, Talageda Nights, Stepbrothers, etc. Now you both got to watch Anchorman 2. May as well, you’re both down the rabbit hole with this one. I didn’t know either but I own both of them. Great comedies. When will you react to Clerks II? Can’t wait to see what you both react to next.
If you had lived through the 1970s the concepts would have made a lot of sense. First, there was extreme competition between the local news stations. There were only three networks and their prime of differentiating themselves was via their news programs. The Nielsen ratings were the big way to determine who was winning the local news competition, and were prominently printed in newspapers. The sexism and misogyny were rampant in the culture so a lot of exaggerated humor mined from that concept. As for the flute solo, flute solos were a very prominent thing in popular music in the 1970s. So, I thought the concept was a great parody of that weird truth. Don't exactly know why the case for the 1970s, though I assume synthesizers replaced them as musical instruments starting in the the 1980s.
Fantastic video reaction! Thank you both vury much for reacting to this video! It was HILARIOUS! You are both looking great as always, and I hope you are doing alright and staying safe! I can not wait to see your next reaction!
This is such a quotable film! The meme/saying “ Well that escalated quickly….” - is from this film! The Anchorman battle was a West Side Story spoof Did you check out Luke Wilson, Ben Stiller, Vince Vaughan & Tim Robbins? Afternoon Delight is a chooooon!
Fun fact: The original script had news anchors crashing on a mountain and having to fight their way through ninja monkeys. Not surprisingly, no one in Hollywood wanted to make that movie.
I'll never be able to believe these guys didn't see Any of these movies through the years. I would honestly watch them anyway just don't like feeling deceived by the "First Time Watching" tag
@@HeisenStark13 I understand that and willing to give anyone the benefit of the doubt but I think it was The Usual Suspects reaction they talked about being familiar with movie tropes because of all they've seen through the years. Regardless I enjoy the reactions very much and will keep watching.
I'm sitting here watching this reaction with my daughter. She's about the twins' age. I am continually surprised by what she hasn't seen. We watched reactions for this, Matrix, Speed. It seems all she knows is rom-coms. It's weird.
Ah it never ceases to amaze and amuse me that more people are discovering Will Ferrell’s best comedy. I had believed that everyone had seen it but no. Every single person I’ve seen has laughed their heads off and that’s nothing short of brilliant. I love Anchorman.
Good to see a comedy reaction to this, most reactors I’ve noticed take the movie literally and point out things about the scene instead of laughing lol
Us San Diegans just love this movie!! It's legendary just lile Ron! They did get some beautiful shots of America's finest city! But just a fun time and watch stepbrothers, old school, and my fav Talladega nights!
My favorite on running joke is the fact every time it cuts to boss alone he’s talking on the phone about his son who’s a menace to society from the sounds of it!
Guys guys guys... I SWEAR you're saving my life tonight (🎶Sugar bear (Sugar beeeaaarrr...🎶)) "I miss your LAUGH! I miss your SCENT!" This is a masterpiece and very much an either you LOVE Will Ferrell or hate Will Ferrell moment in EVERYONE'S life. I hate the bastard, but GOD DAMMIT, I respect his body hair and how he shamelessly uses it for comedy. So now I shall sit back in my home in "SAHNDEEEAHGO," crack open a cold one and possibly experiment with some mild hallucinogenics. You stay classy.
The part where Catherine Hahn does something weird in the bathroom in Step Brothers and yes Talladega Nights and also possibly the other guys with Mark Wahlberg and Will Ferrell Will Ferrell movies are pretty much always a safe bet
For another world class comedy from this era with Will Ferrell, Vince Vaughn, and Luke Wilson, the guy who lost both his arms, is Old School. It’s phenomenal.
So much of this film was ad-libbed that they were able to do a second film from the outtakes and cut plot lines, and that’s before they did Anchorman 2
![Noob To Max With DRAGON REWORK In Blox Fruits [FULL MOVIE]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/LnBMOinoOvA/mqdefault.jpg)
60% of the time,I love this movie everytime.
Facts
that smells like pure gasoline
“That doesn’t make sense”
It’s science
it smells like Bigfoot’s dick!
Almost 20 years later, you could throw an Anchorman line out to most Millennials and we'd start quoting the whole film 🤣
There was an Anchorman/Wedding Crashers/ Napoleon Dynamite/Old School Era and I feel very much a part of it
@@ryanmckenna3503 and 40 year old virgin!
I couldn't name them all! Haha but yeah you're very right.
how do you do suggestion I want these guys to watch the Jason Bourne trilogy
Well that escalated quickly
"The human torch was denied a bank loan" my personal favorite line
I can understand it though. Whatever he was getting the loan for was probably going to go up in flames.
The day I start not laughing at that line is the day I know I've died inside lol
HI-Sterical. I can’t decide which one I like more though. That or “The arsonist has oddly shaped feet”.
Prime Will Ferrel. Had a string of amazing comedies. This, step brothers, talladega nights, all classics
Old school also falls into that category. It’s a shame that he hasn’t done a decent movie in 15 years after his prime was so great
step brothers is my fave
Blades of glory
I liked Everything Must Go, buts it's less comedy than other world of his.
Elf is a great movie too.
The part where Jack Black throws the dog over the bridge actually kills me every time 🤣 he’s like “this is about to happen” so nonchalantly
More like kickballed. That sends me LMAO.
Another Will Farrell underrated classic is 'Night at the roxbury' lol Also Wills line "Well, that escalated quickly" has become one of the funniest memes ever.

If it isn’t Mr Breakfast Club himself! Amelio!
I’M IN A GLASS CASE OF EMOTION
prolly one of my favorite lines from the entire movie 😂
A true classic!!!
Also- I love lamp.🤣

I knew something was missing! Lol!
If you want another, often overlooked, comedy with Will Ferrel I recommend "The Other Guys"
The part that I thought was the craziest is the end credits when they show how much CEO salaries and benefits skyrocketed while normal workers got hardly anything
Also blades of glory
The "whisper fight" at the funeral and the lion vs tuna moments are gold!
Get smart is another great one

Castaway with Planet of the Apes with this cast? Now I want to see it happen.
Wait, you mean that WASN'T the plot of this?😉💙
This movie had a ton of improvisation... Like a crazy amount lol
I'm not even surprised, you can tell they were just having a ton of fun with this movie lol
Baxter getting punted off the bridge will always be hilarious
The throwing of the burrito was equally as classic
I came for this laugh tbh!! Poor Baxter!!
For being his first major feature film, Judd Apatow hit a home run with this one.
Any of his movies are pretty much guaranteed hilarity.
40 Year Old Virgin
Forgetting Sarah Marshall
Knocked Up
I Love You Man
Bridesmaids
Talladega Nights
Step Brothers
Superbad
So yeah, start with those.
👍😊
Apatow's first feature film was Heavyweights in 1995 & it wasn't a home run either.
A classic in the world of dumb comedies! I'm a bit surprised you haven't done Stepbrothers with Ferrell and John C. Reilly, as brothers it would be hilarious to see you guys watch that!
No matter how many time I watch this movie - Steve Carell's jokes still make me laugh every time.

It's a spoof on west side story
@@alexanderharper5450 Finally someone gets it. Thank you
I was surprised the guys weren’t laughing more at that scene. My friends and I were absolutely howling in that part.
This movie has tons of great scenes though.
I feel like everyone always misses Andy Dufresne lol
Embrace the absurdity boys, thats the charm of these films.
Just so much fun! The waterskiing squirrel actually was a feel good news story back in the day. And then there's the yazz flute - hey Aqualung! Love you guys!!
you should watch the bloopers/gag reels as so many lines are ad lib and no one can keep a straight face. it's hilarious!
I freaking love this movie one of the greatest Will Ferrell movies of all time.
Before cable and sometimes even today there were huge rivalries between local news channels. This movie parodies it.
The Anchorman battle scene when they're all fighting I think it's a parody of a scene from the movie Gangs of New York
I've always loved the detail that when Brian says the news team has been at the bar the entire time Ron has - it's true, they are actually right there in the background in the preceding scenes.
I forgot Baxter and Ron wore matching pjs AND headgear. 🤣 Plus, I'm pretty sure the name Mantooth comes from Randall Mantooth, one of the stars of Emergency!, a show in the 70s.
Seeing this cast reminds me of Old School ... If you haven't seen it, it's a classic comedy with many of the cast members in this movie.
That Mexican restaurant was "Escupimas en su alimento" which means "We spit in your food"
As they should lol!!
Lol hilarious
I remember watching this movie with a group of friends when it came to DVD and I don't think any of us have laughed harder than we did when Jack Black punted Baxter. Also, I can't hear Kansas' "Carry On Wayward Son" without thinking about SUPERNATURAL.
In the scene where they sing, it is actually them singing.
i am SO happy i just found you guys. you both are incredible people with massive hearts.

@@ryanmckenna3503 YES! Balls of Fury is amazing. Aside from you, I've never heard of anyone else ever seeing it!
After you guys were so enamoured w Baxter in the beginning, I couldn't wait for the scene where JB punted him. Haha. Did not disappoint. Thanks dudes.
You guys are amazing your reactions have me in tears this movie really funny
The fight scene was an excuse to get all of their famous friends hilarious cameos. There was Vince Vaughn leading the no. 2 news team, Luke Wilson leading his team and losing his arm, Tim Robbins from Shawshank leading the PBS team and Ben Stiller leading the Latino news team.

That fight is the greatest! Can't wait for the 2nd one!

Was looking forward to seeing their reaction to the outtakes
Same, a little sad we missed out on that.

Watch Talladega Nights next please. Will Ferrell movies were at another level in the 2000s.
PLEASE
Great choice!

To reallllllly appreciate this film, you have to understand what tv anchors in the 70’s were pretty close to this😂
I hear they attract bears... They can smell the Menstruation!
Ya hear that Ed? BEARS... Now you put the whole station in jeopardy.
12:44 this is my favorite “180 reaction” lately lol 😆
Fever Dream Comedy is a new genre!
Your laughs are so infectious! 😂 it's science.
Aw, wanted to see the end credits! This is definitely a movie that benefits from repeat viewings. It gets funnier with familiarity.
I've been seeing so many reactors watch this lately, it was only a matter of time before the GOATs got to it!!!
Steve Carrell is HYSTERICAL!
"oh! great odin's raven!" so ridiculous

The actual only good scene in that movie.
You guys need to react to anchorman 2, it’s just as funny as the first one🤣
Anchorman takes place in the 1970’s. Funny movie. Lots of laughs. Will Ferrel is a comic genius. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Ron's total breakdown is both hilarious and totally accurate to somebody punting your dog off a bridge.
I'm happy to be a classy subscriber!
Love the video octokrool stay motivated Dream big 1 mill on the way
So much of this film was ad-libbed that they were able to do a second film from the outtakes and cut plot lines, and that’s before they did Anchorman 2
if you guys haven’t seen Old School, I’d highly recommend it. it’s definitely an underrated comedy from the early 2000s.
Best comedy of the 21st century to date
33:24 ironically Steve carell later did portray a major advisor to the bush administration in "Vice", starring Christian Bale as Dick Cheney
During Endgame when Cap says "Avengers assemble" All I could think of was this movie lol
One of the best comedies ever! 😆
You guys crack me up 😂 much love from australia boys ❤
What movies did you guys watch growing up?
"I LOVE LAMP!"
“I’m Ron Burgandy?” kills me😂
The sequel steps it up to new levels. Lots more Brick (with a love interest).
Dodgeball and Old School are two great ones with Will Ferrell and Vince Vaughn.
Jack black punting the dog off the bridge gets me everytime
I remember when the squirrel water skiing aired on every single news channel in america.
