WTB--Zoolander!



One of the funniest, although also stupidist, movies of all time! Glad to know there are other fans out there in Wright land! Too many fun quotes to choose from! Here are some that I didn't include:

Derek: Have you ever wondered if there was more to life, other than being really, really, ridiculously good looking?

Derek: Seriously, do you like service yourself ten times a day?

Derek: I'm not an ambi-turner.

Hansel: You is talking loco and I like it!

Derek: Are you here to tell me what a bad eugoogoolizer I am?
Matilda: A what?
Derek: A eugoogoolizer... one who speaks at funerals. . . . Or did you think I was too stupid to know what a eugoogooly was?

Matilda: When I was in 7th grade, I was... the fat kid in my class.
Derek: Ew!

J.P. Prewitt: Male models don't think for themselves.
Derek: That's not true!
J.P. Prewitt: Yes it is, Derek.
Derek: [meekly] Okay.

Derek: So join now, 'cause at the Derek Zoolander Center For Kids Who Can't Read Good And Wanna Learn To Do Other Stuff Good Too, we teach you that there's more to life than just being really, really, really good looking. Right kids?

And there are more! Way too funny.

So now for the results! Two people got it from the first clue: George and Matt. George came in with the wright guess at 5:40 Sunday afternoon and Matt at 10:43 Monday, so it really wasn't even close! Way to go, George/Pops! Congrats and Happy Birthday today (and Happy Father's day the day you sent in the wright answer)!

Haley got it next, after the Wed clues. Sue followed, getting it off the Thursday clues. Cat entered a good but wrong guess early in the week but got it wright on Friday, and she was quickly followed by our lovely standings leader with bad taste in music, Em. That's it!

Wild, Jeanine, that you may not have seen it (or at least can't remember). Don't know where Alex or Amy or B were this go round either. If you haven't seen it, you guys all need to have a viewing when you're together this coming weekend for Eclipse and all the 4th of July fun!

Congrats, again, George! You have really moved up the scoreboard! The contest (and playlist--sniff, sniff!) is all yours for the coming week.

Yeaa!! I am having a lazy birthday morning at the Marriott in Billings that Sue got a family deal for us. (strange sentance) We are in Montana for a birthday road trip and are going the the Custers Last stand reinactment (nerd fest, as Susie says) later this afternoon. June 25 being the date of the battle of the Little Big Horn. Anyway I come down and get on a hotel comupter and Wow! I'm the winner.... Matt and I were talking about Zoolander a few weeks ago and how it was one of our favorates and we might have said it was strange it hasn't been used... Way to go Dan..

I've seen it once, and have heard a few quotes many, many times from some family members. Would have got it from the "ridiculously good-looking" quote. Good job you guys.

Congrats George on winning on your birthday! Nice you got away. No it is true that I DID NOT SEE IT! I will have to now. I really want to win on this new WTB one of these days however I don't really know how to post things. I am sure I could get help. Have a good week one everyone. Sounds like you all have big July 4th plans with Eclipse etc.. Enjoy!

Such a classic movie. I didn't know you were a fan dad! That is so good to know! I knew all us kids were huge fans. We will have to all watch it together this weekend. I think I was going to use Zoolander back in the SWS days, but gave up trying to find quotes that weren't used every time we all get together.

Haley said...

Yes this is a hilarious movie. I personally would enjoy it more if two scenes were just edited out because they are so stupid. This is one of the most quoted movies ever. I love the merMAN commercials!! The essence of water is....wetness and the essences of wetness is....beauty. Hahaha.

Pops said...

Stiller at the coal mining bar with his dad and the MerMan commercial comes on....haha..classic. I love where he gets mad that the model of the learning center is so small that the kids can't get in it and he says..." It needs to be three times bigger" or something like that. Stupid, but funny!
