Almost 20 years later, you could throw an Anchorman line out to most Millennials and we'd start quoting the whole film 🤣

"The human torch was denied a bank loan" my personal favorite line

[@wampa25]

I can understand it though. Whatever he was getting the loan for was probably going to go up in flames.

[@KS-xk2so]

The day I start not laughing at that line is the day I know I've died inside lol

[@Jpew2007]

HI-Sterical. I can’t decide which one I like more though. That or “The arsonist has oddly shaped feet”.

[@k3n12ock]

Prime Will Ferrel. Had a string of amazing comedies. This, step brothers, talladega nights, all classics

[@beerdude1878]

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

[@darksoulsspeedrunner5912]

step brothers is my fave

[@chrisberwick8169]

Blades of glory

[@ivankawnartist]

I liked Everything Must Go, buts it's less comedy than other world of his.

[@sealdrup]

Elf is a great movie too.

[@QuayNemSorr]

If you want another, often overlooked, comedy with Will Ferrel I recommend "The Other Guys"

[@crimsonknight7011]

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

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.

[@Ivy94F]

I knew something was missing! Lol!

[@HARLEYMK69]

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.

[@walkerlocker6126]

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

[@HeisenStark13]

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

[@adnap]

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. 👍😊

[@mobiusbelts3607]

Apatow's first feature film was Heavyweights in 1995 & it wasn't a home run either.

[@TheDaringPastry1313]

This movie had a ton of improvisation... Like a crazy amount lol

[@OctoKrool]

I'm not even surprised, you can tell they were just having a ton of fun with this movie lol

[@natefuller4039]

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.

Castaway with Planet of the Apes with this cast? Now I want to see it happen.

[@DravenGal]

Wait, you mean that WASN'T the plot of this?😉💙

[@MontagZoso]

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! 😎👍

[@Trendyflute]

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!

[@bigpac25]

Baxter getting punted off the bridge will always be hilarious

[@beerdude1878]

The throwing of the burrito was equally as classic

[@amariebloom]

I came for this laugh tbh!! Poor Baxter!!

[@the_33rd]

Embrace the absurdity boys, thats the charm of these films.

[@fullmoonprepping4024]

Before cable and sometimes even today there were huge rivalries between local news channels. This movie parodies it.

[@andyb7942]

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.

[@trottheblackdog]

That Mexican restaurant was "Escupimas en su alimento" which means "We spit in your food"

[@amariebloom]

As they should lol!!

[@Thrui]

Lol hilarious

[@angelagraves865]

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.

[@BileDuctBalderdash]

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

[@knockoutking3764]

In the scene where they sing, it is actually them singing.

[@CaptainFirefred]

No matter how many time I watch this movie - Steve Carell's jokes still make me laugh every time.

[@MrDarkwing78]

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!

[@alexanderharper5450]

It's a spoof on west side story

[@TheDaringPastry1313]

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.

[@AraClaire]

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.

[@kokaroka69]

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.

[@melaniesmith2917]

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.

[@Exobably]

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.

[@barbb721]

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!!

[@CathleenMJennings80]

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.

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.

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 😂
