Will Ferrell is Ronald Reagan

[Soggy in NOLA]

Horrible idea in frighteningly bad taste from a guy, Ferrell, who is not and never has been anywhere near as funny as he gets credit for.

Holy crap, we agree. I'm gonna pull a George Costanza and leave on a high note.

 

[BuckToothMoron]

i'm gonna see that.

No you won't, he bailed on the movie.

 

[blackhawk]

I'm still waiting for Ferrell to make Land of the Lost 2.

I hope you are joking...

Very much so.

Summary of the movie: According to the report, the film, titled “Reagan,” tells the story of a White House intern who is tasked with making the president think that he is an actor playing the role of the commander-in-chief.

That sounds pretty damn hilarious.

Sort of the role Ben Rhodes plays to Obama....

Will Ferrell doesn't have an ounce of talent unless one enjoys watching someone else acting like an idiot.

isn't that why we go to the movies ? bill clinton will play harriet tubman.

i have to say though that steve carrel was great in the big short. so comedians like to stretch out when they can.

Haven't seen Carrel in much, but I did kind of like him in Get Smart

it can go one way or the other, but he really plays drama well. i heard rich dreyfus on a radio interview he always did comedy drama drama comedy, back and forth.

i don't see the reagan movie working as either, for anyone.

Somehow I don't see a comedy about someone suffering from Alzheimer's doing big box office Ferrell was wise to turn this down who ever came up with this idea would be wise to scrap it altogether.

 

[Katzndogz]

He's embarrassed he ever considered it.

I really have to wonder what is going through someone's mind when they think hey a comedy about someone suffering from Alzheimer's that's a good idea.

 

[Staidhup]

Alzheimer's is nothing to laugh about, there is no humor in watching a loved ones brain fail, crumble before your eyes, retreat into darkness, confusion, and loneliness. Only Hollywood could be so cruel and callous, it fits. Maybe he should visit an Alzheimer's care home and do some first hand research. What an asshole, then again the majority of those in Hollywood are nothing more than screwed up assholes.

A COMEDY about the debilitating years that Reagan & his family endured with his illness.

Thanks but I'll pass. Have some fucking dignity for fucks sake

I'm not.

Haven't seen Ferrell in anything I liked yet, not going to waste my time

I'm not because mocking such a debilitating illness is the epitome of bad taste.
