- 'Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy' (2004) Rocking an epic 'stache, a flaming flute and chauvinistic machismo to spare, Ferrell was sensational as a 1970s faux San Diego newsman in Adam McKay's winning satire with all-time one-liners and a top-notch cast.
- 'Elf' (2003) As one can tell by this list, Ferrell excels at playing man-children, and Buddy is the sweetest of the lot. Raised by Santa's helpers at the North Pole, Farrell's bighearted uber-elf heads to New York City to connect with the father (James Caan) he never knew.
- 'Step Brothers' (2008) As dynamic a duo as they are in "Talladega Nights," Farrell and John C. Reilly were even better here as two middle-aged guys still living at home when their parents marry.
- 'Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby' (2006) For Ferrell's speed-loving hotshot NASCAR driver, winning is everything, but he gets taken down quite a few necessary pegs and rises again to the occasion in Adam McKay's sports comedy.
