I didn't see this topic but thought I'd find out if any of you saw this movie. 

I personally felt that this tops Elf as my favorite Will Ferrel movie.  Fantastic jokes and Will Arnett and Amy Poehler stole the show.  What a creepy brother/sister skating pair.  John Heder was not that spectacular and I can somewhat understand why they have not been including him on the TV ads.  But come on, this dude is the co-star.  Get the Napoleon fans out there and show him some love.  Craig T. Nelson was getting more airtime in the ads, and he's in the movie for about 15 minutes. 

All the other supporting roles were fantastic.  I wasn't expecting a great performance from Jenna Fischer, but seeing her in lingerie was fantastic.  As for the cameos, I don't think it was necessary to include every figure skater that ever existed, but I'm sure I'm in a minority.

In short, go see this movie.
Anytime someone offers you 10,000 to 1 odds, you take it.
Lets just say if John Mellancamp ever wins an Oscar, I'll be a rich man.

I recognize those words, but they makes no sense.

I prefer this picture of Jenna Fischer:

Though she does look fantastic in the movie.

I was surprised at how remarkably unfunny Farrel managed to be in Taladega Nights and that kind of put me off his movies ever since. I think he tried to pass off being stupid and quirky as funny, which doesn't work unless you do it right...

God bless you Basehart. Yeah, that lingerie scene was great, though. I'd go back just for that. The movie was absolutely hysterical though. Here's one of the best scenes.

I'm not the right person to ask this because *gasp I did not like Anchorman.  I'd have to see it more to get the quotes down but what really impressed me was how they did not use up all material for the promotions.

Would that be possible?

I find it hard to believe /any/ new Ferrel movie could beat Anchorman (though I live in San Dee-augo so I'm biased =P )
