do not pretend to know the impact it would have on those whom are the butt of the jokes.

definitely no Racine style in this one!

just got in from Anchorman 2. It was well received from the teens/young adults. about the same as the last one. {nm} lobogotti Dec 17, 22:38

Did you like it and was it funny? About how many people in the theater? Thanks {nm} jdaniel Dec 17, 22:41

I am curious as well. I thought the first one was hilarious, but I haven't laughed once in any of the scenes from the trailer to the second {nm} Zorglub Dec 18, 02:27

this one seemed to have a TON of racist humor. the crowd ate it up. {nm} lobogotti Dec 18, 04:08

Was it racist? Racy? Race-based? Racinian, as in, "in the style of Racine"? :) {nm} second gary Dec 18, 07:09

I haven't seen it, but I'm guessing probably racist in the sense that Ron Burgundy is clueless about race :D {nm} tealfan Dec 18, 08:39

Did you ever see "Jesus is Magic"? second gary Dec 18, 09:34

Same here but the movie is gold if you liked the first one you will like this one. {nm} kcpelot Dec 18, 05:23

I was not a huge fan of the first, that said I laughed a lot in this one. theater had about 125-150 people {nm} lobogotti Dec 18, 04:06

I just might see this one then. I gave the first one a C- but sometimes sequels are better. Couldn't tell by the TV trailers. Thanks. {nm} jdaniel Dec 18, 06:35

hmmm, I'm usually in the minority for my thoughts ont he first, but nice to see someone felt the way I did. lobogotti Dec 18, 08:09

Going by the audience lack of reaction to most of the jokes, I don't feel we're in the minority. Will give the sequel a fair chance. TY {nm} jdaniel Dec 18, 08:21
