    Except that IMDB is a public discussion board, NOT a "fan" board. If you want only positive discussion of someone's attributes, feel free to go to a fan website, or to start one yourself.
    I use IMDB as a "Consumer Reports" type resource, to find out the good and bad attributes of entertainment.
    So please save worrying about "negative" comments here - they're supposed to be here.

      Intellectual discourse is OK. i.e. I think it's perfectly healthy to say it when you think something or someone is not funny, etc. To not speak up isn't a very free expression of your life, is it?
      Anyway, in the c5b4ase of Wil Forte, I too think he's not funny. In fact, I'm watching MacGruber right now, and I was wondering if I was seriously missing 'The Joke', so I decided to see what the rest of the internet community had to say. It turns out my instinct was right this guy's a joke, and this movie really is a waste of my time. I'm not really missing anything, because there's nothing to miss in this sophomoric miasma of predictable plots, lines, and horrible acting. It's like watching a Jr. High play, written by taking every other paragraph from a stack of fanfic it feels like an amateurish ripoff, and not funny like the first Austin Powers. (But a lot like the second 2 which were just a parody of themselves).
      PS. Love K. Wiig, but hate her in this movie. Tempted to stop watching now so I won't begin to hate her. I might need to watch Whip It just to clear the pallet.
      PPS. An 'upper-decker'?! OK, that's funny. Disgusting, but :).

        I agree that he sucks man. His voice for one thing. And his timing or something is off. Every time I see him on SNL I cringe.
        Is this not a reasonable place to park?

          I completely agree. He's not funny. How this guy got a movie is beyond me.
          If Will Sasso, who might be the best scetch comedian of all time can't get a movie but this guy can We need new people running hollywood.

              He is very funny and smart!!! Anyone can act crazy and overcommit in the name of comedy but he is not only a very funny commedienne he is an intelligent writer. The Brothers Soloman is a very funny smart movie, thanks to him!!

                  xsugarhillx - I agree with you 100000000%
                  Especially this ''And he and Arnett look like they have great chemistry in The Brothers Solomon.'' Arnett&Forte - MY heros. They have total chemistry in that movie which makes it amazing.
                  And to Wassup-WIT-it - ''Highly agree. Not funny at all. Annoying, spitefully flat delivery. Not good. Not good at all. And you morons that write essays on message boards, wellyou're just.yea.'' Were just WHAT?! How about YOU morons who come on imdb sites for fans just to nag about how much you hate it. Or especially you people who say 'I hate him I dont care about him at all' but you care enough to come here just to piss the fans that should visit it off. Im not saying you said you dont care, but still, people who look up will fortes imdb are will forte FANS and to come here just to say how much you dont like him or his movies is really lame and your just looking for trouble. Doucccchhhhheee chillllll.
                  And thats all I have to say.

                          I agree with the OP, Will Forte is decidedly unfunny, as is Fred Armisen. I have no idea why either of them are kept on.

                            I agree, he uses the same stupid "dad" voice for EVERY character he plays. Kristin Wiig does the same dang thing. This is the least funny cast they have ever had. I end up fast forwarding through most of the shows now. I really only tune in to see the hosts. And would somebody please cut Andy Sanburg's rats nest he calls hair?? What a dork!!

                                I agree for the most part that Will Forte is not funny. I used to groan at the Falconer skits and the Kelly brothers' appearances on Weekend Update. His general delivery, as stated in other replies to this thread, takes away from the material's comedic potential. On the other hand, Will was hilarious as Tim Calhoun (the nervous wannabee-politician).

                                  Bet most of you guys who think he's unfunny hated Norm Macdonald too.

                                    Will Forte is the most unfunny, cringe-worthy, and annoying cast member in SNL history. He makes me sick and reminds me of a pedophile, when he's not playing pedophiles.
                                    Norm McDonald is one of my favorites of all-time. I think he's one of the all-time greats and a true comedy genius. Best delivery EVER!

                                      Best Norm sketch ever was the take on "West Side Story" with Robert Downey Jr. Classic SNL. His sarcasm was great.

                                        THIS is comedy. Just genius. You sir are beep stupid for not understanding that. He's the second most talented member of SNL.

                                          definetly not the worst cast member of all time. i agree he isnt a great actor but its funny and comedic actors arent supposed to win fricken academy awards. even his small part in beerfest was funny. and his voice isnt really annoying, it helps with his comedy like when he sings haha. but you should probably search up worst cast members because their are some terrible ones.
