Anchorman 2: The Legend Continues

Are you ready for the return of Ron Burgandy and his infamous news team? Well in case your not just know its kind of a big deal because the sequel is coming to theaters soon. The hilarious: Will Ferrel, Steve Carell, Paul Rudd and David Koechner are back at it and in character. All four main characters have been talking about it on talk shows and claiming it is better than the first. If that doesn't put you in a glass case of emotion, I don't what will.

By the way if you haven't seen the first Anchorman movie you probably won't be getting any of the references in this blog. And I would recommend you go watch it if you are a Will Ferrel fan. While some people think it is just a silly movie majority of people agree it was a funny film.

A fascinating part of it all is that most of the content in the original Anchorman is improvisation. The actors go in with an idea and then improvise their scenes. And while most comedy movies in the past have been completely scripted, I have noticed a trend in comedy movies where improvising is becoming more present. Actors need to have good chemistry in order for the film to be funny rather than just having a funny script. Obviously the Anchorman crew mesh so good together and that is why I think the movie was such a success.

Check out the official trailer here for a sneak peak at the film.

Jimmy Fallon to Replace Jay Leno on 'The Tonight Show'

We have all heard the saying before "All good things must come to an end".  Well in this case this "good thing" lasted a very, very long time.  Jay Leno has been host of The Tonight Show for about twenty years!  And while Leno has been excellent, I think the vast majority of viewers are ready for a change. 

A few months back NBC announced that Jimmy Fallon would be taking the torch of The Tonight Show, one of the longest running shows in history (its kind of a big deal by the way).  As many already know Jimmy is a Saturday Night Live Alumni and in general a talented man.  He has proved to be a great host on his current show Late Night with Jimmy Fallon.  His show has been doing well in ratings and staying very competitive in the late night race against other hosts such as Conan O'Brien and Jimmy Kimmel. 

From singing with the President of the United States and becoming BFF's with Justin Bieber it's safe to say that Jimmy Fallon is well known in Pop Culture today.  I for one am excited to see this new change in a legendary show.  Jimmy is scheduled to host the first show in February 2014, the week after the Olympics finish. 

By the way check out just how funny Jimmy Fallon is in this hilarious sketch parody of Breaking Bad that was aired on his show that aired on his show this week.
