Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy
Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy at 51% is about as even as it gets. The voters are divided, and 160 matchups haven't settled the debate. Ferrell's Burgundy is pure commitment: the jazz flute, the Sex Panther, the dog-punting. McKay directs every escalation with the confidence of someone who knows the audience will follow him past the point of reason.
