Just bought this on DVD - the film itself is genius, and the extras I have actually got round to watching are hilarious. I'm saving the commentary for a day when I am feeling sad because I am pretty certain it will cheer me up.

If you want a good commentary for a sad day get Eurotrip, the film isn't the best but the commentary is a drinking game. The two guys got drunk, or at least it sounded like it by the end of the film.

Zoolander isn't genius, it's Ben Stiller. A lot of people actually don't like it, I think it's good enough for a comedy.

Ok I'll revise that, in my opinion this film is comic genius. I don't like Ben Stiller in everything, to be honest I couldn't see what all the fuss was about with Meet the Parents, but this never fails to make me laugh. Oh yeah, and the fact that I am in love with Owen Wilson doesn't hurt.

Cheers Wes, I'll check out Eurotrip on a sad day.

Though if you don't want to see old ugly man penis in massive numbers than I'd advise against it, a film made by a comic duo turns into a lot of naked men... again

Zoolander has it's moments, proves my point about how Milla Jovovich is one ugly person for a "star"

Have you seen Starsky and Hutch? Worst film ever made and it stars these two from Zoolander as a comedic team again and it doesn't work out so well.

David "Mulder" Duchovny plays a weird role as he's used to, he's one of those actors I just enjoy watching his films even if it's a small part like this one.

Jersey girl also has some funny commentaries for a pg 13 film they sure made it a Kevin Smith film on the unrated commentaries, anyways I'm done jumping around topics. I don't remember this commentary but I'll have towatch the dvd again.

Yeah thought Starsky and Hutch was a fairly enjoyable way to waste two hours of my life, but wouldn't go out of my way to see it again.

I love the cameos in Zoolander, my favourite has got to be Billy Zane, but David Duchovny is pretty funny. I think I just like a film which is unashamedly silly, and where the actors seem to be having so much fun being in it.

I've got to say though, Milla Jovovich ugly? Jesus, what chance have the rest of us got!

Meet the Parents and Starsky and Hutch were indeed weaker then the rest of them, imo.

Well depending on the position some people have on that subject, for me if you can see bones there's a problem. Look at most celebrities, they look like they are human but than there are people like Milla, we'll call them supermodels.

Who is Billy Zane? His cameo to me was odd because I have no clue who he is

Billy Zane is an actor, he was the bad guy in Titanic, can't think of anything else off the top of my head he's been in. Anyway his cameo in Zoolander has got absolutely nothing to do with anything, its just totally random which is why I like it.

Aw bless you Wesley, sticking up for curvy girls the world over!

Just something about them that make me sick

Titanic had a bad guy? Billy Zane looks like he could be a leading actor.

Those coughs of Derek Zoolander were the funniest coughs ever, it was girly yet comdic. And how his friends die, stupid but I can imagine real models being that stupid.

I actually really like starsky and hutch, though I did think that meet the parents was reallty bad.  As for zoolander, one of my gfavorites, and lets not forget dodgeball.

I cannot figure out why my parents hate this movie so much, i know there old and all but come on. My brothers in his 20's and he enjoys Spongebob Squarepants so what's going on when they can't enjoy comedy.

My mum loved Zoolander. She also has a crush on Owen Wilson. Its a little odd that we have the same taste in men.
