Ben Stiller Gets Ready For 'Zoolander 2'


 In  Comedy, Sequels

 Allow me a moment to be a gushing movie fan.  I LOVED the original "Zoolander" movie.  It was the first time I really appreciated Ben Stiller and was out just before Will Ferrell broke out as the biggest comedy star in the world.  The film is also LOADED with incredible and very referable one liners "You should listen to Billy Zane".

"Zoolander" is also one of those rare films that didn't do all that well at the box office, but has grown in popularity over the years and as a result there has been speculation for a while that another Derek Zoolander film could be on the way.

There are now reports that Paramount has put the wheels in motion for a sequel with Stiller on board as well as his "Tropic Thunder" co-writer, Justin Theroux, to direct.

There has been no official word yet on if Owen Wilson would return as Zoolander's nemesis turned best friend Hansel, but it appears Will Ferrell won't be back as there are suggestions that "Superbad" star Jonah Hill will come in as the villain for the project.

QUESTION:  What's your favorite line from the original "Zoolander"?

    Awesome news, one of my favorite parts from the movie is when David Duchovny's character is telling Zoolander about the male models being brainwashed to be assassins

    Duchovny: Male models don't think for themselves.
    Zoolander: That's not true!
    Duchovny: Yes it is, Derek.
    Zoolander: Okay.

    If there is anything that this horrible tragedy can teach us, it's that a male model's life is a precious, precious commodity. Just because we have chiseled abs and stunning features, it doesn't mean that we too can't not die in a freak gasoline fight accident.

    My favorite line would be "Merman pop, merman" although honestly almost the entire movie is quotable!

    This would be a great topic to discuss in the Best All Time Comedy Quotes Group!
