    “The first version of ‘Anchorman’ is basically the movie ‘Alive,’ where the year is 1976, and we are flying to Philadelphia, and all the newsmen from around the country are flying in to have some big convention,” Ferrell said. “[My character] Ron convinces the pilot that he knows how to fly the charter jet, and he immediately crash-lands it in the mountains. And it’s just the story of them surviving and trying to get off the mountainside. They clipped a cargo plane, and the cargo plane crashed as well, close to them, and it was carrying only boxes of orangutans and Chinese throwing stars. So throughout the movie we’re being stalked by orangutans who are killing, one by one, the team off with throwing stars. And Veronica Corningstone keeps saying things like, ‘Guys, I know if we just head down we’ll hit civilization.’ And we keep telling her, ‘Wrong.’ She doesn’t know what we’re talking about. So that was the first version of the movie.”

    This sounds hilarious. I know the cast of Anchorman could have made this one work.

        The producer blew a conch and yelled “FILM CREW, ASSEMBLE!” and everyone got together to film the new scenes that the revised script called for.

          I read, ”The producer blew a couch” and in this context it kinda made sense… I am too tired to actually be allowed access to things.

    I’m hoping the other commenters here realize it’s just Will Ferrell fucking around.
