60 of 98 · most liked firstIt's even worse when there's an actor I really dislike... enough to go on my list of "I will probably not see a movie with this actor in it"... and then they go and do something amazing? How can *Will Ferrell* be in Stranger Than Fiction, one of my all time faves? HOW?! It's so wrong.
unlabelledView post →My main memory of the movie Stranger Than Fiction is that Will Ferrell gets mocked by the narrator for brushing his teeth correctly.

unlabelledView post →This is a book Stranger Than Fiction—& it’s also a movie too! I def recommend. Wonderful Emma Thompson! & Will Ferrell is hilarious & shows some range too!
unlabelledView post →One of my favorite types of movie is the one where a goofy-comedic actor does something serious, but it gets marketed as something more in keeping with their brand. Anyway, just rewatched Stranger Than Fiction and it's just NICE. What a nice movie.
unlabelledView post →Stranger Than Fiction: no idea how it isn’t consistently discussed as a masterclass in film. -Metanarrative about the power of words and corresponding free will -Will Ferrel in a rare serious role -Emma Thompson as a crazy writer -Dustin Hoffman as a literature professor
unlabelledView post →Just finished watching STRANGER THAN FICTION (2006) for the first time. Kinda wept through the second half of the film. Just a fuckin' wallop to the heart, jezus.
unlabelledView post →This song was a plot point of a movie with Will Ferrell called Stranger Than Fiction about 20 years ago and that’s how I discovered it
unlabelledView post →for all those playing along at home, best guess is that it's the extremely subtle reference to the film STRANGER THAN FICTION (which I love very much)
unlabelledView post →This is a weird one, but I cried the hardest I've ever cried at Stranger Than Fiction, the Will Ferrell movie about a guy who starts hearing his own narration. Cried so hard I got a bloody nose and had to stick it in my popcorn. I may be something of an outlier vis-à-vis metafictional awareness.
unlabelledView post →I LOVE Stranger Than Fiction! Will debate anyone who doesn’t think it’s a good film. It’s the only Will Ferrell movie I like actually. But also Maggie Gylenhall, Emma Thompson, Queen Latifah, Dustin Hoffman? Asking what is more important, a human life or a great artwork?
unlabelledView post →Stranger Than Fiction (a criminally underrated movie in my humble opinion)
unlabelledView post →Stranger Than Fiction is an absolute delight. And I still think the Bewitched movie would have been better if Will Farrell had been replaced by Will Smith halfway through and nobody had commented on it.
unlabelledView post →Just finished watching Stranger Than Fiction with my budding author of a 14 y.o. daughter. I forgot just how great that movie is. Definitely belongs up there among my very favorites.
unlabelledView post →The following is my hottest most controversial take: Stranger Than Fiction is Will Ferrell's secret best movie.

Any recommendations for something along similar lines? (Please read the room and do not make a sarcastic/joking recommendations.)

unlabelledView post →For Existential crisis feel good watching I always turn to either Stranger Than Fiction for a movie or The Good Place for a show.
unlabelledView post →(3/6) Stranger Than Fiction (2006) ✍️ Yes, I’m a Will Ferrell fan, and yes, this is my favorite of his #movies. On the other hand, my dad doesn’t like Will Ferrell’s movies except for this one.
unlabelledView post →I never got Ferrell. He was good in Stranger Than Fiction. But the UK never had SNL, so it's only second-hand through films. Saw him first as a police/ranger in a Kevin Smith film and he was over the top then. Never got Adam Sandler or David Spade either.
unlabelledView post →Did we just learn something terrible about Will Ferrell or is this a humorous non sequitor? If it's the second one, the movie Stranger Than Fiction is really good.
