Will: Because we spewed so much hate last week, we thought it would be a better idea to spew some love.
Peter: Come on, man. That's gross. I'm not spewing love on the internet any more. Those days are over.
Will: Your mind is in the gutter, Edmiston. As always. Anyway, to me this list has to begin with Vince Vaughn, even though he essentially plays the same character in every movie he's in.
Peter: I love that character. He's getting kind of stale to me, though. I no longer have the same level of excitement when I see him in a preview as I did a few years back. Fred Claus looks pretty funny, though.
Will: A few years back, like when he was in Clay Pigeons or Psycho?
Peter: I went to see Psycho. I regret it now. But there you go - I rarely go see non-comedies at theaters, and Vince Vaughn made me go. So your point is valid. Obviously, I have to go with Will Ferrell next. The guy has made some really bad movies, yes, but the highs FAR outstrip the lows. Hilarious.
Will: And he knows it too. I think it's going to get to the point where he makes the most ridiculous movie possible knowing full well everyone will still go see it.
Peter:A Night at the Roxbury, Bewitched, Kicking and Screaming - you don't stay popular after making shit like that unless you are fantastic. That said, I hope he steers clear of the "over-the-top character in a fringe/offbeat sport" motif from here on.
Will: It's clear that formula is working for him. He's starring as an ABA player from the 70's in his next movie.
Peter: Next up, I predict we'll see him as "Bert Nunchuck", a pompous miniature golfer who learns about life and love.
Will: At the risk of sounding like we're picking everyone from the same movies, Steve Carell is another one. Ever since "Even Stevphen" on the Daily Show, I've loved the guy.
Peter: Produce Pete was my favorite Steve Carell bit on the Daily Show. And somehow it's like the only thing you can't find online. We linked all the Even Stevphen bits above, and yet I can't find jack shit on Produce Pete. That makes me angry.
Will: Maybe Produce Pete is a figment of your imagination.
Peter: I know it happened. OK, fine - if I can't talk about that, how about his performance on the Office? It's my favorite show on TV right now.
Will: Agreed. He is a fantastically awkward genius.
Peter: All right, here's one I know you'll love: Chris Farley. I know he's dead, but during his brief run on this earth, the man generated so much comedy. He had so much manic energy and he was impossible to look away from. Plus, it was his giant toddler character that gave us the inspiration for the name of this site.
Will: 15 years after the fact, the Chippendale's sketch with Patrick Swayze remains my favorite SNL sketch of all time.
Peter: That was awesome. I also loved Nerf Crotch Bat, which contained the classic line: "Nerf + crotch = lots of fun!".
Will: As far as the female side of things is concerned, I found myself engrossed by Into the Blue because Jessica Alba was always in a bikini. I couldn't focus on Titans/Colts because of her.
Peter: So let me get this straight? You like funny guys, but you're only interested in hot women?
Will: Pretty much.
Peter: See, I like Dame Judi Dench and Kathy Bates.
(long pause)
All right, I'm just as superficial as you. Jessica Alba is hot and I like to watch her be hot.
Will: I knew you'd come around.
Peter: Elisha Cuthbert. That's all I have to say. The hottest chick to come out of Canada since Anne Murray.
Will: The problem with Elisha Cuthbert is that she's not in very much. I mean, The Girl Next Door is must-view material.
Peter: Yeah, Cuthbert as a porn star is pretty much awesome in every way something can be awesome. Here's another one: I actually quite like Tina Fey. Really smart and funny. 30 Rock is a phenomenal show.
Will: Love the glasses. That's pretty much all I got. Wait a second. How have we not talked about Bill Murray yet?
Peter: We are retarded.
Will: We must be. He may be the funniest actor of the last 30 years.
Peter: He just radiates funny. It's hard to explain, but if you've seen him in person, it's amazing the charisma the guy has. Plus, "Big" Ern McCracken.
That's all I have to say.
Will: What can I possibly say about Bill Murray that wasn't said in that video?
Peter: How about John C. Reilly? The guy one hell of an actor and is funny to boot. He was overlooked for a long time, but I loved his performance in Boogie Nights and his new movie Walk Hard looks fantastic.
Will: Only a true talent can pull off being in both Chicago and Talladega Nights.
In August 2007, there was a tragic accident at a laboratory in Memphis, Tennessee. From the carnage emerged two enormous children with disproportionate strength and writing ability. This is their story.
I would like to add Kenny Mayne to your list.
