Will Ferrell’s Highs & Lows

Will Ferrell’s never been one to show much concern for his questionable script selection. He pretty much does whatever he wants – from streaking in his tighty whites to wrestling bears (twice) – and gets away with it. Since breaking in to the business in 1998 with the “SNL” sketch-turned-feature film “Night at the Roxbury,” Ferrell has been all about quantity over quality. Over the course of the last decade, the actor has appeared in no less than 25 different projects, and for every career highlight like “Anchorman,” there’s been a box office flop like “Bewitched” to balance it out. Surprisingly, Ferrell’s been able to escape such disasters virtually unscathed, but just because Hollywood is willing to forgive him doesn’t mean we are as well.

In honor of his latest film, Bullz-Eye.com revisited the actor’s best and worst cinematic performances of his career. Check out the list here, and then be sure to come back and discuss.

The worst lines in film history…?

Probably not, given that there’s only one film from prior to the ’80s (and the line they’ve cited is, while a little cheesy, still one of the most immortal in cinematic history), but if you’re curious to see EW’s personal favorites, you can find there right here.

I don’t agree with all of them – I actually quite like some of the lines they’ve called out as being awful – but I sure as hell agree wholeheartedly with at least this one:

“You know what happens when a toad gets struck by lightning? The same thing that happens to everything else.”

Recognize it…?

A Chat with Rory Cochrane

You probably know Rory Cochrane, even if you don’t think you do. His longest and most high-profile gig was serving as a member of the “CSI: Miami” team as Tim Speedle, but prior to that, he’d already earned the status of cult icon by playing the stoned-as-shit Slater in “Dazed and Confused,” as well as the monetarily-challenged Lucas in “Empire Records.” Since departing “CSI: Miami” of his own free will, Cochrane has kept busy with the occasional film; we spoke to him on the occasion of the DVD release of the disconcertingly-real thriller, “Right At Your Door,” and we took the opportunity to ask him about how much of a toll the filming of the movie took on him, why he left a sweet gig on a weekly TV series, and…well, frankly, we spent most of the time just trying to get him to give us answers of more than a word or two. (Nice guy, that Rory, but not one to give you essay-length responses.)

Rory Cochrane: Hello?

Bullz-Eye: Hi, may I speak to Rory?

RC: Yes.

BE: Hey, this is Will.

RC: How are you doing, Will?

BE: Pretty good. How are you?

RC: All right.

BE: Actually, I tried you a few minutes ago, but I figured you were still on the last interview maybe,

RC: Oh, yeah? I didn’t hear it beep.

BE: Not a problem. So…”Right at Your Door.” Very intense flick. I hadn’t actually seen it until they sent me the DVD – it never played in my area – but it’s great.

RC: Oh, well, I’m glad you liked it.

BE: Definitely. It’s part disaster movie, part horror movie, with a thread of romance running through it. How was it to shoot?

RC: Very grueling…and intense, you know? I’m sort of glad that it was only…that we shot it in twenty days. Which is a good thing, because I would probably have had to check myself into some sort of institution afterwards if it had went any longer.

BE: Yeah, it’s a little dark.

RC: Yeah.

BE: How did you get involved in it in the first place?

GQ picks the Ten Best Guy Films You’ve Never Seen

It’s Oscar season, and most people are out catching up on nominated flicks like “No Country for Old Men” and “Michael Clayton” (both of which come highly recommended from Bullz-Eye’s own critics). The guys over at GQ, however, have decided to branch out and nominate some of the best films that any self-respecting man needs to see, but probably never have, and they’ve come up with a great list.

Don’t worry. You’re not going to find movies like “Rambo” and “Animal House” here, but more obscure (and mostly foreign) guy films that, while you may have never heard of before, are definitely worth your time. I’ve only seen four of the 10 films myself, but if the others are of the same quality, then you should definitely add these titles to your Netflix queue ASAP. I’m not going to ruin any of the picks here (though you may be able to guess one from the image to the right), so be sure to head over to GQ.com and check out the list for yourself.
