Hard to pick a favorite, but Ben Stiller was brilliant in Zoolander.

Yeah, they're an awesome team. Owen Wilson's best movie is I Spy though. It pwns wedding crashers.
Anywho, my favorite movie from any of these guys is either Anchorman, 40 Year Old Virgin, or Zoolander.

Theyre all ****ing wankers; none of them can act whatsoever and they star in absolutely atrocious films.

I have a soft spot for anything Owen Wilson. That guy is great.
Ben Stiller is really hit and miss for me; like he can be dead on hilarious (Zoolander), and he was good in Keeping The Faith and Night At The Museum ( :cool: ) but sometimes I just feel sorry for the guy.

Squirrel, Steve Carell is a very good actor.
Steve Carell/Little Miss Sunshine.

I don't see why half of those guys are even lumped in together. "Vince Vaughn, Owen Wilson, Luke Wilson" yeah, but not the rest.

I really don't get the lumping of Steve Carrell and Jack Black with the Wilsons, Stiller, Ferrell, and Vaughn.

This, exactly.
Carrell is ten times the actor they are to be honest.
But obviously the best Frat Pack movie is The Royal Tenenbaums.

Thisthisthisthisthisthisthisthisthisthis.
Except Carrell was so much better in The 40 Year Old Virgin than Little Miss Sunshine, mainly because 40 Year Old is a much better movie. Most overrated film of 2006. Also, Jack Black had School of Rock, which is the only film I remember actually liking of his.
But when will Seth Rogen become part of this Frat Pack? He might be my favorite (by assocation) with Knocked Up.
How the hell is Knocked Up a Frat Pack movie?

okay thanks for ****ing reading kage
Well I was referring to the fact that Knocked Up is on the Frat Pack filmography on Wikipedia.

Judd Apatow did 40 Year Old Virgin with Steve Carrell and Seth Rogen, both of whom were in Knocked Up. Just a guess.
That's ****in stupid tbh. They're going too far with this.

I think it's a "secondary" frat pack film. Check the list at the bottom. The 40 Year Old Virgin is on that list, as are others.

I always thought the Frat Pack was the Wilsons, Stiller, Vaughan and Ferrell. You know, the ones who could actually be described as a "group of male Hollywood comedy actors who have appeared together in many movies since the mid 1990s."
I don't like Steve Carrell though. I realise his comedy style is no different from any of the above actors, but everything about him makes my skin crawl.

Yeah, exactly. It almost seems like they're trying to make this thing bigger than it is.

I stopped reading when they started talking about "pledges."

Seriously. The Frat Pack is just the Wilsons, Stiller, Ferrell, and Vaughn. Anyone else is just people on the internet trying to make it seem cooler than a couple of guys who do a lot of movies together.
I think the Frat Pack has made some very, very funny movies, but Carrell is in a totally different league in the sense that he is good beyond the stupid humor of the other guys.
Jack Black isn't really "above" the others like Carrell is, but he is still not really part of the group.
And Envy sucked.
