The only issue I have with Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby is that the title is one of those that stretch beyond the limits. Though it is hard to tell just by reading this, but it took me three minutes to write that title out.

Columibia Pictures has recently released two new movie stills for Talladega Nights, both of which obviously feature the film's number one marketing point-- Will Ferrell.

Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby
The film tells the story of NASCAR stock car racing sensation Ricky Bobby (Will Ferrell) whose "win at all costs" approach has made him a national hero. He and his loyal racing partner, childhood friend Cal Naughton Jr. (John C. Reilly), are a fearless duo -- dubbed "Thunder" and "Lightning" by their fans for their ability to finish so many races in the #1 and #2 positions, with Cal always in second place. When a flamboyant French Formula One driver, Jean Girard (Sacha Baron Cohen), challenges the "Thunder" and "Lightning" for the supremacy of NASCAR, Ricky Bobby must face his own demons and fight Girard for the right to be known as racing's top driver.
Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby will be released to theatres on August 4th.
