Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby
In this week's episode we talkabout the first collaboration from Will Ferrell and John C Reilly as they appear in Adam McKay's NASCAR film: 'Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby'.
We discuss the silliest moments in the film, the conceptual humour and how it translates from page to screen; we conduct a Will Ferrell draft pick, talkabout all of the film's memorable quotes and reflect on Sacha Baron Cohen's French villain.
This film is seriously lacking in Radiator Springs. That quaint little town would've made this film so much more accessible, and given Ricky Bobby the reality check he needed. Meeting Mater, Sally, Luigi and the gang would've made him value those around him instead of putting trophies first.
