Support the independent voice of Houston and help keep the future of Houston Press free.
This week, attached to prints of The Dictator came the teaser trailer for Anchorman 2, with the original cast of boys spouting off their trademark borderline profanity from out of the holes where their moustaches lay.
When production of this sequel was announced, the social media world -- I guess we should just say world at this point -- lit up with excitement. The original film, Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy, ended up being a comedy classic and the source for endless quoting. It's the pleats...
No definitive word yet on release dates -- maybe summer 2013 -- or even plot points, but I'm just excited these guys are back onscreen together again. This cast has come into its own since 2004, especially Steve Carrell and Paul Rudd. Yeah, it's going to be sophomoric and there will be pee-pee and poo-poo jokes, but who cares?
So come on, everyone....ride the Palomino stallion.
Keep the Houston Press Free... Since we started the Houston Press, it has been defined as the free, independent voice of Houston, and we would like to keep it that way. Offering our readers free access to incisive coverage of local news, food and culture. Producing stories on everything from political scandals to the hottest new bands, with gutsy reporting, stylish writing, and staffers who've won everything from the Society of Professional Journalists' Sigma Delta Chi feature-writing award to the Casey Medal for Meritorious Journalism. But with local journalism's existence under siege and advertising revenue setbacks having a larger impact, it is important now more than ever for us to rally support behind funding our local journalism.
