How how HOW does Will ferrell get movie roles?! Wow, lets see someone needs a dumbass in their lead role..
Wanna know why Will is good at these? I think it is ’cause he IS a dumbass, I think he REEKS and is a horrible horrible comedian.. calling him a comedian is an insult to comedians….
I think that a sequal to anchorman should be about 5 minutes long, with him being run over by a steamroller on a street somewhere.. now that is comedy… and I think it would probably be his funniest role ever..

@ DeanPizzo

Yeah, but Superbad 2 would be infinitely better if Jonah Hill and Michael Cera were old as shit too. Take it to the links!

Wake Up Ron Burgundy isn’t really a sequel, just the extra cut stuff cut into a film. You can tell when stuff intersects.

Okay, that’s not exactly tragic.

I do miss his scent. His musk.

All the great directors do at least one sequel… Or the highest grossing directors at least. Did the media overlords convince us that that means they’re great?

@ Eric: IDK but either way they should skip two and go right to three… “Ron Burgundy: Eighties Blitz Trip” Ron Lands on the moon high on cocaine… discovers moon is cocaine “One big’ol crack rock”.

I think the next movie should flesh out Ron’s fathers life, the struggles perils and hardships, living as an Italian immigrant orphaned boy in New York City; his rise to power which becomes the quintessential anti-mirror of Ron’s own life path and eventual tragic end: death by asphyxiation while snorting moon cocaine in zero gravity, wearing only a speedo, doing cannon-balls into the Sea Of Tranquility.

I thought Wake Up Ron Burgundy was the second film?! So is this the third?

I wasn’t sold at all until I read the concept.
Sounds like the idea could work, but IMO I would love to see Superbad 2.

But Superbad 2 : The College Years would be predictable and clichÃ©. They would have to take it a step further … maybe the guys join the peace core disgusted with society and help a small village find the funk they so rightfully deserve.

OK, maybe not.

Forget the sequel - adapt it as a tv series!

Anchorman is begging for a sequel. If they want to show an old ron burgandy, use makeup, they’re good at that. Anchorman scored a much larger audience on DVD than cinemas and i think a sequel would be great fro all involved

I think they should use the CGi that made magneto and Xavier look young in X-3 and reverse it! Seriously who want’s to wait 30 years, I’ll be 50 by then and won’t find it funny.
