Will Ferrell and Zach Galifianakis campaign in Toronto

By Tribute on July 31, 2012 | 4 Comments

Who would you vote for in an election, Will Ferrell or Zach Galifianakis? They go head to head for political office in their upcoming comedy, The Campaign, and to promote the film, the comedic duo came through Toronto as part of an 11-day Whistle-Stop Tour. In true Canadian style, their first stop was the Hockey Hall of Fame with Toronto’s own mayor, Rob Ford. After the actors rode in on a Zamboni, Ford presented each of them with a mini Stanley Cup and then offered up some real-life campaigning advice: “Keep going hard. Don’t hit babies, though, you’ll lose the campaign for sure,” referring to a scene from the film. You’ll be able to see what he’s talking about when The Campaign hits theaters on August 10. After making an appearance on MuchMusic’s New.Music.Live, Ferrell and Galifianakis then headed to the Scotiabank Theatre for a screening of the film. Check out the photos below for some highlights from the red carpet. (Photos by Devin Garabedian)

   I went to the screening last night! The movie was only ok. It’s very short and feels rushed. Not Will or Zachs best movie for sure. Still it had some good laughs but some of it felt like they tried too hard to make you laugh and failed.
