Just pointing out, Wikipedia also has Jason White listed with the rest of the band. That would be really great for him if he appeared in this movie! :D I loved the first one

If Jason is in it, I guess it will be a musical performance.

So I just watched Anchorman and tbh, I don't see what the big fuss is. Will Ferrell's funny and all, I just found the story to be lacking. I think my favourite Will Ferrell movie is Blades of Glory. The Night at the Roxbury too.

Blades of Glory and Night at the Roxbury are both awful :lol: and you don't watch a Will Ferrell movie for the story hahah

Anchorman is a modern cult classic, and I really do hope the sequel lives up to the gigantic hype. You can't really call yourself a film fan unless you've seen it. However, I don't particularly care much for cameos in such movies, even if it is from one of my favourite bands. Harrison Ford was enough for me. Too many big-timers and it may get a little overkill, which defeats the point of the film's comedic style.

Rewatched Anchorman today... I guess I'm dumb that I didn't know it was a Judd Apatow movie... and that's enough for me to think this is true since he's such a big Green Day fan and obviously wanted Billie in This is 40.

Movie doesn't come out for a long time... I wonder if they're going to have a song in the soundtrack (would make sense) and if there will be any half ass attempt to promote the trilogy (belatedly) through it.

Dunno I think it was Paul Rudd why Billie was in 40 least that what Rudd and Judd said in the This Is 40 commentary

Sure but Judd is still a fan... his other movies have Green Day references too :)

Is that from the audio commentary narrating over the course of the DVD? What did they say?

Just the same as the footage in the Rudd interview on youtube that they were wanting a popular musician that was still popular and had a sense of humor and Rudd had suggested Billie and reached out and shot for a day

Awesome! Exited for this!

Update:Lewis Hamilton is also reported to be appearing in a cameo role.

I love Anchorman, but since sequels don't usually live up to the potential of the originals, I don't think it will be that good. I think that it is safe to assume that it will be some kind of a musical cameo since the whole band is making an appearance. Also besides Green Day, I kind of want to see what kind of role Sacha Baron Cohen will play in it. I love Borat and General Aladeen.

If this is for real then I need to see the first Anchorman.:ermm:

Since Anchorman 2 is set in the 80s, I wonder how Green Day will play into this. It's possible they aren't playing themselves in the movie, in fact, I think it'd be hilarious for them to play some 80s hair metal band or something :P

I was thinking the same thing!

Anchorman + Green Day= Mind Explosions

I don't think that this news is very surprising though, because of how often GD is referenced or part of Judd Apatow related films, but It will still be amazing.

I loved BJ's cameo in This is 40, which was the best part of that boring film.

This excites me :woot:

They need to stop doing things like this :P

Posted

I didn't even think about the fact that this takes place before they existed :lol:

There are a LOT of major celebrities making cameos in this movie. Not sure how big a role they would have.

Posted

Khris you need to stop doing things like this (aka posting in the forum) :P

but seriously I cannot believe there are people who haven't seen Anchorman. And I'm excited for GD to be in the sequel!!! :)

I dunno, the trailer for the 2nd one didn't make me laugh at all :( I know i'll watch it eventually but do you think it can top the first one?

Posted

There's no way it'll top the first one. But, it'll be a laugh because Will Ferrell & Steve Carell.

I do like how Steve Carell and Kristin Wiig are gonna have a thing. I love those two. I actually hope all these cameos won't ruin the film. Dunno what i'd do if another news team gang war happens though :lol:

The 100000s of celebrity cameos in Zoolander are half of what makes it great, so maybe this will achieve that :lol:

I would honestly be shocked if there isn't another news team war! That was the best scene from the first one.

We're probably blowing this out of proportion (like we do with everything :P), I'm sure they'll be on screen for about a minute and have like 3 lines :lol:

I wonder what they'll act as. The movies in the early 80's so there's no way they'll appear as Green Day

They might not even have lines :lol: It might be some kind ironic-cut-to-Green-Day second :lol:

Which, honestly, could be funnier than anything they could say if they do it right :lol:
