This PG-13 rated film stars Will Ferrell. The package is available as a full frame version, extended edition full frame version, extended edition widescreen version, 2-Pack limited edition gift set - Side By Side, and 2-Pack limited edition gift set - Back to Back. Extended edition bonus features include outrageous bloopers and outtakes, over 15 minutes of deleted scenes, Bill Kurtis interviewing Ron Burgundy, Burgundy biography, Burgundgy's MTV Music Awards interviews, music video, behind-the-scenes of the music video, ESPN audition, and much more. It's the early 1970s and the local anchorman is not only a source of news but a revered local hero. In San Diego, Ron Burgundy (Will Ferrell), a mustachioed bachelor with a taste for scotch, unparalleled passion for the jazz flute, and a near-telepathic connection with his spirited mutt, Baxter, is that man. Rounding out Ron's testosterone-heavy news team are his close friends--cologne-obsessed man-on-the-street Brian Fantana (Paul Rudd), sports reporter Champ Kind (Dave Koechner), and mentally challenged weatherman Brick Tamland (Steve Carrell). Their male camaraderie is challenged, though, when producer Ed Harken (Fred Willard), pressured by changing times, brings the first female reporter, ambitious Veronica Corningstone (Christina Applegate), to the team. Ron finds his chauvinistic ideals compromised further when he starts falling in love with her.
Fueled by Ferrell's singularly loopy persona, ANCHORMAN joins the long list of comedies which have successfully poked fun at the styles and mores of the '70s. Here, with Ferrell's script and Adam McKay's direction, the character of Ron Burgundy becomes a full-bodied comic creation whose possibilities for laughs aren't nearly exhausted by the end credits. The result is an often hilarious celebration of moustaches, wide neckties, alcohol abuse, and good, old-fashioned sexism. THEATRICAL RELEASE: JULY 9, 2004 Anchorman: The Legend Of Ron Burgundy Reviews: "[E]xecuted with amiable good humour."
-- Edward Lawrenson, Uncut "[E]ndearingly daft....[With] a terrifically silly WEST SIDE STORY-style scrap between rival news teams..."
-- Edward Lawrenson, Sight and Sound "[I]t's a hoot..."-- Manohla Dargis, Los Angeles Times "Funny and sometimes wicked."-- Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times "[T]his is wonderfully stupid stuff with many glorious moments of inspired slapstick....Sublime."
-- Michael Bonner, Uncut "The movie is funny when it's nasty..."
-- Owen Gleiberman, Entertainment Weekly "Will Ferrell is the go-to guy if you want to laugh yourself silly....ANCHORMAN slaps a goofy smile on your face."

HILARIOUS
People think this is just stereotypes and sex jokes and they complain but then half of them probably go listen to Eminems CDs(Which are crap).But this movie is FUNNY!

Was This Review Helpful? Yes No  Shockingly Horrible
Being a fan of Will Ferrell, I thought this would be hilarious, seeing how he co-wrote it. It was nothing but adolescent sex jokes and bad cheesy acting (unlike good cheesy acting like "Evil Dead"). I just finished watching it minutes ago and I'm still apalled. It made $84 million in theaters and I work in a store where it is sold and we nearly sold out within days of the DVD release. I'm still wrestling with why. And to save you a huge surprise, the newly-typical Vince Vaughan/Ben Stiller/Luke Wilson cameos are in here too, just like any post-Old School movie starring one of the four of them (including Will). This could put me off Will Ferrell for a bit. Sadly, I've also seen "surviving Christmas" and this is not any worse!

Dont even bother...
I heard a new Will Ferrell comedy was coming out and I got very excited. I missed it in theatres, so I went out to rent it for New Years Eve. I watched for 45 mins and I had had enough of lame jokes, gross humour, stupid stereotypes and I didn't even bother to finish it. And I don't plan on doing so... ever. So, please, do yourself a favour and think twice before picking out this stinker.
(By the way, if you love Will Ferrell but hate Anchorman, check out Elf...)

Co-helmed by WALL-E director Andrew Stanton, FINDING NEMO follows Marlin (voiced by Albert Brooks), an overprotective clown fish father, as he desperately searches the farthest reaches of the sea for his missing son Nemo. Marlin's journey leads him beyond the Great Barrier Reef into deeper and darker waters, where he meets Dory (Ellen DeGeneres), a forgetful yet optimistic blue tang, and a number of not-so-friendly--and often very hungry--aquatic creatures. Meanwhile, little Nemo finds himself in a dentist's fish tank in Syndey, Australia, along with other underwater captives, including Gill (Willem Dafoe), the group's scarred Moorish idol leader. As Nemo works with his new friends on a plan to escape their tank, Marlin and Dory swim closer, but they'll need more than just fins to get into the dentist's office.
This fifth computer-animated outing by Pixar continues the company's remarkable winning streak that began with TOY STORY. Like other Pixar films, FINDING NEMO features a story with heart--this time, a father-and-son tale--and thoroughly charming leads--in this case, Marlin, Nemo, and Dory. And, of course, there's an army ...
