Also the Pandas. Local news here in San Diego is always all over it when something is going to give birth at the Zoo or Sea World.  |  IP: Logged Robert L.

What's the story on that, is the director a big fan?  |  IP: Logged Mike Blakesley Film God Posts: 12767 From: Forsyth, Montana Registered: Jun 99 posted 07-13-2004 10:44 PM                        We saw this at the Big Horn Cinema in Cody, Wyoming on Day 3 of its release and the print was SCRATCHED ALL TO HELL. The movie had some laughs. The bear-pit ending was stupid and went on too long. I too wonder why they put the Smokey clip in there. Why not a Pixar clip, at least then there'd be "something" in the movie worth watching.  |  IP: Logged Stephanie M. Brosche Film Handler Posts: 14 From: Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, USA Registered: Oct 2003 posted 07-15-2004 12:16 AM                     I'm a big Will F. fan, so I was really looking forward to seeing this even though (based on the previews) I didn't expect greatness, just to be amused. I've never wanted 2 hours of my life back so desperatly. I may have actually chuckled to myself twice. What a let down! I've watched crappy teeny-bopper films that had me giggling more than this did.  |  IP: Logged Robert L.

I have paid to see this movie twice in 4 days!! This is IMO one of the funniest, well written, clever comedies EVER. Will Farrell is hilarious! It's definietely a man's movie comedy. The first theatre I saw it at was all guys, no women in the audience. We were all cracking up. From when he's weightlifting to impress the girl, to the anchor fight in the alley. I could not stop laughing through the whole movie. Very well done. 5 of 5 stars.  |  IP: Logged David Stambaugh Film God Posts: 4021 From: Eugene, Oregon Registered: Jan 2002 posted 07-25-2004 09:19 PM                        Cinemark 17 Springfield OR. Show got off to a rough start - image was shifted several feet off the screen and way out of focus. They fixed it quickly and things were OK after that. This is without a doubt one of the stupidest movies I've ever seen. Maybe THE stupidest. Having said that, I laughed and enjoyed it. The rest of the audience seemed to be enjoying it too. Christina Applegate was very good - hope her career isn't tainted by appearing in this.  |  IP: Logged Dennis M Dow Jr Expert Film Handler Posts: 141 From: Bloomfield NJ USA Registered: Oct 2003 posted 08-07-2004 08:03 PM                       the movie had its moments but I agree Steve Carrel was hilarious and the newsteam rumble was a lil over the top but funny none the less  |  IP: Logged Randy Stankey Film God Posts: 6539 From: Erie, Pennsylvania Registered: Jun 99 posted 12-13-2004 01:09 AM                     I have three classifications for comedy: Funny. I laugh. Not funny. I don't laugh UN-funny. It would have to get funnier before it would be "not funny". (i.e.: Negative comedy value.) "Anchorman" = UN-Funny.  |  IP: Logged
