Another recent Ferrell flick I liked was Stranger Than Fiction. It is unlike much of his other work in that it is a little lighter on the comedy (not sight gags and physical ) and focused more on story, but still very entertaining. Emma Thomson and Queen Latifah (sp?) were good in it too.
She can't be good in anything, she's a useless whale. I bet she screwed up her lines making that movie a lot.
Whale girl: Try this new mascara, it really plumps up your face-hole
Director: Hey, whale, this isn't one of your makeup commercials!
The humor in that movie(Stranger then Fiction) was really dry. I watch it with my friends, and I think that's where it died. We ended up hating it, and starting berating every part of it. Oh well, making fun of the movie made it good.
