Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby
The fastest man on four wheels, Ricky Bobby, is one of the greatest drivers in NASCAR history. A big, hairy American winning machine, Ricky has everything a dimwitted daredevil could want, a luxurious mansion, a smokin' hot wife, and all the fast food he can eat. But Ricky's turbo-charged lifestyle hits an unexpected speed bump when he's bested by flamboyant Euro-idiot Jean Girard and reduced to a fear-ridden wreck. From TMDB

unlabelledView post →One of the weird things around the NAKED GUN discourse is misremembering the "Movie" Movies (EPIC MOVIE, DATE MOVIE, MEET THE SPARTANS) as the only spoofs of the 2000s and not beloved films like WALK HARD, ANCHORMAN, ZOOLANDER, TALLADEGA NIGHTS, and DODGEBALL which were also killing it but died.
unlabelledView post →More dramatic than anything that happens in the F1 movie and funnier than anything in Will Ferrel’s NASCAR movie Talladega Nights
unlabelledView post →What if I told you Christopher Nolan names Talladega Nights as a movie he has to stop and watch all of if he sees it on television https://twitter.com/thewapplehouse/status/1683132227058642947?s=46
unlabelledView post →Funniest film cameos where the joke is just they got the cameo at all? I think it’s probably Orson Welles in the Muppet Movie, just objectively, but I’m partial to Elvis Costello and Mos Def in Talladega Nights because the movie is so confident about squandering them.
unlabelledView post →I first saw Star Wars in 1997 when I was in second grade and thought it was an old movie. Realizing now that at the time, Star Wars had been out as long as Talladega Nights has been out now.
unlabelledView post →Probably more so, given that I marginally like Anchorman and Talladega Nights and The Emoji Movie mostly just fills me with contempt. Also because I've never watched The White Lotus, so he went from "guy writing popular, smart show, I guess" to "dude who runs a kinda toxic set and is a transphobe"
unlabelledView post →Entertainment Weekly talked to a bunch of F1 drivers about their favorite racing movies as part of the press run for the F1 movie The best part imo: George Russell talks about Talladega Nights with his own try at saying Ricky Bobby in a southern accent youtu.be/H9R0Udf4I_c?...
unlabelledView post →This is true. Christopher Nolan has gone on the record to say that he loves him some Talladega Nights, calling it one of "the great comedies." My mental picture is of him watching the movie with a DEADLY SERIOUS AND VERY STERN expression all throughout, occasionally remarking: "This is very funny."

unlabelledView post →If I'm actually watching a movie, I'll just watch Talladega Nights. It'll get me out of a funk usually. If I'm just spacing out, whatever bullshit I can find on YouTube. Watching something without a narrative is easier on my tired brain.

unlabelledView post →One of my favorite things is when "highbrow" directors express sincere love for "middle/lowbrow" films, like Rivette going all in on Showgirls &...I forget which other Euro-art film stalwart loved Talladega Nights. If anyone ever heard Kurosawa talk up Bill & Ted or something similar please do tell.

unlabelledView post →Ha! Now I am reminded of my favorite movie, Talladega Nights, which makes you Ricky Bobby kinda?
unlabelledView post →Talladega Nights. The more Adam McKay opens his fucking mouth and goes full Bernie Bro, the less funny that movie is. Bubba Wallace was right, that movie is an insult to NASCAR.
