All I know is that I only saw one of these Will Ferrell movies, and that one was Taladega Nights, The ballad of Ricky Bobby, and that film went straight to the top, straight to the very very upper echelons of utmost topness, of my all time favourite movie of all time (subsection: that I saw in 2007).
I love Taladega Nights like I love my own nipples.

Like I said I watch them on HBO and shit. I like dumb american comedies as much as the next guy, but this is becoming pretty weak. The plot/characters in 4 movies are completely interchangeable.
- Add Farley (God love him) and Sandler movies to that mix. Sandler movies even use the same cast.kona
- That's because Sandler is the man and the same cast are his best friends from growing up, haha.flavorful
- kona, this is why I am waiting for Ferrell to start with the romantic comedies.mrdobolina
- I know, but the damn cast always has the same roll! even in the spinoffs.kona
- so replace sandler in his romantic comedies with farrell and there you go. i just saved you $22.kona
- chuck and larry isnt part of the formula (shitty movie anyway) but what are others?mrdobolina
- dont get all bent up about it.mrdobolina
- ugh... i'm not. i'm just talking with you. waterboy. billy madison.happy gilmore. zohan. the list goes on.kona
- those movies are 15 years old though.mrdobolina
- oh sorry. i didn't know we were getting technical. if we're getting technical his last 4 movies were...kona
- blades of glory. stranger than fiction. talladega nights. curious george. i don't think those are all the same.kona
- you cant talk about anything without getting tweaked. I mean you are defending will farrell wtf?mrdobolina

I know, seriously. He needs to get some range up in there.
Unless he has no interest in being more diverse...

To his credit, he is working on his "Mediocre American Man" Trilogy which consisted of Anchorman, Talledaga Nights, and another as yet to be written tale.
The fact of the matter is, people are writing movies with him specifically in mind now as opposed to before when he was writing them (and part of the trilogy itself).
Blades of Glory, and Semi-Pro are just examples of others seeing a formula working and capitalizing.
I think Hot Rod was written with him in mind too, but went to Andy Samberg after he (Ferrell) declined and then or stopped working on it. Afterwards there were heavy re-writes but still.

I have noticed this phenomenon as well with his recent movies. I don't like it, but his documentary "History of the Cowbell" should make up for lost time.
J/K!
