What's your opinion on Zoolander?

Male modeling I bet has never been put into a movie before, and probably, will never be again. Personally I thought it was one of the most hilarious comedies I've ever seen. Ben Stiller is the man and plays the role to the best it could ever have been. A few xtremely questionable, but skippable parts, without those, would have been better and much more clean.
-didn't see any threads on this topic so just thought I'd bring it up. Maybee yall just didn't like it. :brow:

Awesome movie. We quoted it around my shop for ages.

"There is no surer sign of decay in a country than to see the rites of religion held in contempt." - Niccolo Machiavelli

"But even as Josue and Caleb declared that the Land of Promise was good and fair, and that the possession of it would be easy and pleasant; so the Holy Spirit, speaking by all the Saints, and our Blessed Lord Himself assure us that a devout life is a lovely, a pleasant, and a happy life." - from An Introduction to the Devout Life, by St. Francis de Sales

I watched it once just because so many of my friends quoted it. I won't make a blanket statement like, "It was the stupidest thing I've ever seen," but it tried to hard at being funny, and failed IMO.

My friend brought all of us to see it for her Birthday. It was kind of funny, and Ben Stiller rocks, but not the best movie I've seen. x.o
But the part where he chucks the model of the school across the room was hilarious. XD

Derek: What is this?! A center for ants?! How can we be expected to teach children to learn how to read if they can't even fit inside the building?!

Other dude: This is just a small...

Derek: I don't want to hear your excuses! It must be...at least...3 times as big!

^ This was the only part I liked.

The rest I think, was not very well. It just wasn't that funny for me for some reason, I finished thinking it was just a waste of time.

I didn't think it was the BEST movie ever, but I watched it thinking it was going to be horrible and stupid, and I got somewhat of a pleasant surprise. The content is questionable and squirm worthy at times, but overall, I think it's a cute movie.

I personally really liked it. Very funny and well done in terms of humor.

Loved this movie. Though I must make the disclaimer that it does have sevral disturbing scenes, so watch out. Not a family movie.

It's all about the gasoline scene....that's too funny.

Maybe our mistakes are what make our fate. Without them, what would shape our lives? Perhaps if we never veered off course, we wouldn't fall in love, or have babies, or be who we are. After all, seasons change. So do cities. People come into your life and people go. But it's comforting to know the ones you love are always in your heart. And if you're very lucky, a plane ride away.

XD this is one of those movies that you can feel your IQ dropping as you watch... lol ... and the other week through a series of bizarre circumstances, i watched it twice in one day, with only an hour or two between watchings... o_0 i felt less intelligent for a few days afterward. but it is pretty darn funny, minus the fast forward scenes.

my favorite part is when Zoolander wakes up and smacks his head on the bunk above him, and falls out of bed.

and my favorite quote: "Hello... Earth to Miranda... it was a day spa. D... A... I... Y... E... "

I have some issues with this movie.


*takes a deep breath*


The Prime Minister of Malaysia does NOT look like some evil Communist Chinese dictator, you idiots!!!!




ok ok fine...I know it's a comedy but I just had to let that one out. My Indonesian friends had a great time making fun of my country while watching this dumb movie (I'm from Malaysia btw). They ought to do a little more research coz it is impossible for the PM to be Chinese. (-__-)\

Attached pics: This is the real PM of Malaysia, Perdana Menteri Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi who recently took over the place of Dr. Mahathir bin Mohammad. The guy on the right, in one of the pics. Hope this was educational.

He only really looked evil in the sequences where Zoolander was brainwashed.

Thank you prime rib of propecia®

Yeah... There's more to life than being really, really, rediculously good-looking... We say that all the time around here, and we just tell each other that they are rediculously goodlooking...
