Am I the only one who doesn't find him funny?

I chuckled a few times during Elf. His other movies, not so much.
I think what bothers people is the "genius" label that's often attached to Ferrell. Most of us have probably had a friend who was just as funny as him and could carry a movie just as well. Can talent that common truly be called genius? I don't think so. -

He has the same humor as seth rogan and the fat guy from the hangover. And all three of them are not funny.

Wow im so glad im not alone here. this guy is paintfully unfunny. and most of today ive had to deal with his stupid mug on the side of my screen cuz of a sequel to another stupid movie he made anchorman. just what we need, more stupid because people say hes "HILRIOUS". uh huh. im crying, not with laughter, but the death of comedy.
Realism, Remakes and Unnecessary Sequels are ruining movies! -

Agreed. The only time I thought he's being reasonably funny was in Talladega Nights, but that could be mainly of Adam McKay's contributions. Actually probably that being the case of most of his other popular movies (which I didn't find really funny but anyway).
He seems to resonate with the late 20's to mid 30's male audience who needed their own comedic genius as they grow up though. None of them that I know with that category seems to have a good sense of humor, a dead generation of humor I suppose.
I miss Mr. Show. -

There's only a handful of things which he did on SNL which I found hilariou5b4s - and the rest were complete duds to me.
I have NEVER found anything he's done in the movies to be funny.
But with that said, I gotta say that his one man HBO show playing Bush was awesome. He displayed some real talent with that. I was surprised. If there's one thing of his I would recommend it would be that.
