SO your saying that Apatow's movies Get Him to The Greek, Step Brothers, Forgetting Sarah Marshall, Anchorman, Talladega Nights and The 40 Year Old Virgin aren't good / funny movies??

Adam McKay is best known for directing a series of successful Will Ferrell comedies that include Anchorman, Step - Brothers, and The Other Guys.

Koechner may be best known for his comedic roles in «The Office» and the «Anchorman» films, but between the introverted Todd Packer and the bombastic Champ Kind, his role as Colin samples the best of both and creates something deliciously evil.

These new folk joining the best News Team in the world are Meagan Good as Linda Jackson, who's the boss at the news station, James Marsden as Jack Lime, a new anchorman on the scene, and Kristen Wiig as Chani, who's Brick's Lover.

Though a fairly big comedy sequel announcement was made a couple days ago on Conan, when Will Ferrell dressed up as Ron Burgundy and announced Anchorman 2, The Hollywood Reporter brings us even better sequel news today: Twins, the 1988 movie featuring Arnold Schwarzenegger and Danny DeVito as the titular twins, will be getting a sequel.

In the sequel sector there's the return of Anchorman as well as a new Twins film, Triplets.

Anchorman 2 Finally Happening: After so many years in the rumor mill, what better way to announce that the Anchorman sequel is really happening than via Ron Burgundy himself?

The plot forced Burgundy away from the news desk, and he is separated from his crew for quite a long time (much longer than the similar move in Anchorman, which amounted to only a few scenes), and Ferrell by himself without Paul Rudd, David Koechner, and Steve Carell to play off doesn't work nearly as well as the ensemble moments.

Looking for casting news as well as the details on the One Direction movie, Adam McKay's music plans for «Anchorman 2» and more?

«Anchorman 2» does a much better job of satirizing the TV news business than the original.

The best of Will Ferrell's smart - stupid comedies to date («Anchorman,» «Blades of Glory») skipped along while pulling a straight face in their treatment of adolescent narcissists on parade.

«Damsels In Distress «In a decent year for comedy, two femme - centric examples of the genre were battling it out of for this place, and while «Bridesmaids» is certainly the best of the Judd Apatow films to date and as consistently funny a mainstream film as has come along since «Anchorman,» nothing brought me greater joy than Whit Stillman «s return after 13 long years away — «Damsels in Distress.»

Still, just as Ron Burgundy is the newsman we deserve, Anchorman 2 is the sequel fans have been clamoring for, and there's definitely fun to be had as Burgundy adjusts to having a black woman (Meagan Good's GNN exec Linda Jackson) for a boss even as he navigates rocky times with wife Veronica Corningstone - Burgundy (Christina Applegate) and seven - year - old son Walter (Judah Nelson), a surprisingly strong comic foil for Ron.

Ferrell is, after all, a marvellous comic talent (he won me over last year with «Elf», the best live - action comedy of 2003 and a piece of work I'm willing to wager he'll never better) and «Anchorman» is, after a bit of a slow start, a very good comedy.

The first drama from long - time comedy director Adam McKay (Anchorman, Step Brothers) and based on a true story and the best - selling book by Michael Lewis (Moneyball, The Blind Side), The Big Short follows an all - star cast take a bet against the banks in the run up to the 2008 financial crisis.

Since then, Steve has been making quite an impact on the comic world, including supporting roles in «Anchorman» and «Bruce Almighty,» as well as the lead role in the NBC adaptation of the award - winning BBC comedy «The Office.»

«Talladega Nights» is the second big screen collaboration between Ferrell and director Adam McKay and like it's predecessor «Anchorman» it is generally a madhouse, but in a very good way.
