Tangentially, I find it incredible how much better Will Farrell is as the straight man than he is as the funny man and how he is hardly ever used in that role.

Like Melissa McCarthy in Can You Ever Forgive Me.

he did type cast himself with SNL awhile back so he most likely doesn't get to do projects since a studio just wants him to recreate Elf, why waste money on a long-shot character that can't guarantee a big showing?

I dunno if it's tangential, that's kinda what I was getting at, but you said it better

I really like him as a straight man, because his one-liners punch way harder when someone else is giggling about them than when he is. "I brought you flours" might be the best joke in the entire movie.
