The first red band trailer is out for this.  I liked the first one and even though Cusack isn't in this one, I don't think he's going to be missed too much.

The main reason I know him is cuz he was the Phantom.  My cousin played his sidekick Guran in the movie.

He was pretty entertaining in the Tales from the Crypt movie as well (the first one, not the one with Dennis Miller fighting vampires).

I've seen Titanic and TftC: Demon Knight, but it's been a decade or more for both and Zane didn't make much of an impression.

Oh my.

Too bad no Cusack, but I am sure it will still deliver some good laughs.

Just because John Cusack was mentioned I discovered (in a plate of shrimp moment) that a 30 year old Robert Mitchum and 45 year old John Cusack look disturbingly similar. I noticed this because I just stumbled upon/watched Out of the Past (1947) tonight and it is a fucking fantastic 40's noir flick with which I wasn't familiar.  The dialogue puts Mamet to shame without a single F-bomb. Some great 40's dames too!

Is that really the last scene of the movie in the trailer?

Billy Zane played himself in Zoolander.  How do you not remember this classic exchange:

Quote
Billy Zane: Hey, Derek, back on top, man.
Derek Zoolander: Thanks, Billy. You rock.
Billy Zane: No, you rock. When you gonna drop Magnum on us, buddy?
Derek Zoolander: Not yet. You gotta tame the beast before you let it out of its cage.

Zoolander is awesome.  Hansel also has the great line "Listen to your friend Billy Zane. He's a cool dude."

I know Billy Zane because his character was brought onto Twin Peaks apparently only to nail Audrey Horne.

No, more movies with David Bowie judging walk-offs and David Duchovny as a conspiracy theorist hand model.

I saw it at one of those theaters where you can drink. I feel that enhanced the experience.

Funny movie, a hell of a lot better than I was expecting, and the beer selection there was stellar.

Tropic Thunder.  Stiller was the weakest part of it, but he didn't bring the movie down.

Tropic Thunder was great.  C'mon, you didn't at least crack a smile at Simple Jack?  "You never go full retard!"

Also RDJ as a 'black' character disguised as another dude!  I forget the exact quote but it cracks me up.

I have a very low brow sense of humor and I thought almost every minute of Tropic Thunder was beyond terrible.  The only exception was this two or three minute period where Tom Cruise did the finest acting of his life.

Tropic Thunder isn't hilarious if you watch it for what it is.  It's hilarious for what it's saying about Hollywood.  The same reason that Zoolander is hilarious for what it says about popular culture.

Not the same in my opinion, because Zoolander is also funny for what it is, not because of (or only because of) some deeper meaning.

I understand what you mean, I just prefer more visceral and immediate comedy.  Yes, the idea of making RDJ play a charcater like that is funny.  The execution I did not find funny.

Quick Edit:  Comedy is in the eye of the beholder, and I am the first to admit that I tend to prefer a different spectrum than a lot of people.

Well, yeah, and probably the bits slightly before and after the dance, I can't remember it very well.

yeah zoolander just had a lot of funny, well written bits and the characters/directors executed, just overall fine comedy

the gasoline fight scene
you can derelickte my balls
the files...are in the computer
I was the fat kid in high school - gross
the coal town scenes

A lot of hansel/derek lines where they just add some male model, does not get it, says something dumb, are just great, again well written, well executed.

Tropic thunder yeah is up there too, had some good stuff, I just don't remember it being as wall to wall consistently funny as zoolander.
