Ben Stiller plays a vacuous model in Zoolander, his comedic take on male modeling and the fashion industry. Paramount has done an excellent job on this 2.35:1 anamorphic widescreen transfer. Sporting very crisp colors, lots of detail, and deep, dark, black levels, this transfer of Zoolander is nothing short of impressive. The audio is presented in Dolby Digital 5.1 Surround in English as well as Dolby 2.0 Surround in French and English. The 5.1 sound mix is very good with many instances of surround use in both the front and rear speakers. Zoolander features lots of bombastic music and effects, and the soundtrack takes advantage of these to the fullest extent. Also included on this disc are subtitles in English. This "special collector's edition" of Zoolander includes a ton of bonus materials that should please male models everywhere. Starting off the disc is a commentary track by star/producer/co-writer/director Ben Stiller and writers Drake Sather and John Hamburg. This is a funny commentary track the pokes fun at the film while simultaneously giving insight into the production and story. Five deleted scenes are included with optional commentary that is actually very funny, and five extended scenes show what was cut from the final print of the film. Some outtakes show the cast and crew flubbing up their lines or actions. An alternate title sequence is a different version of the end credits that is really rather pointless. Two skits from the VH1 Fashion Awards are included that give a rare peek at the birth of the Derek Zoolander character. Finally, there is a music video by the Wiseguys, some promotional spots and trailers, and a few photo galleries of some costumes, characters, and stills from the film. All in all, this is a very fine DVD edition of the wacky comedy Zoolander.

This movie has never failed to amuse and I must have seen it at least 30 times.
I finally bought it last Christmas for my boyfriend.
Nothing says "I love you" like Zoolander.
What's great about it: "I think I got the black lung, Pop."
What's not so great: 0

This movie is just like jumping in a time machine set for the late 1800's and not returning until you see credits and even then you're in a complete whirlwind.
Absolute combination of beauty and intensity.
Thrilling and soothing.
I literally lost track of all my surroundings during this entire movie.
I forgot where I was and that I was watching a movie.
I've been waiting for a movie like this all my life.
No exaggerations.
And what better of a topic today than oil franchise?
Spectacular!!!
What's great about it: Daniel Day-Lewis
What's not so great: Nadda

Okey...but...

This movie seems as if it would have been great if I hadn't seen Life Aquatic or The Royals it just seems like a repeat to me...I know it's a different story base and it's Wes Anderson and that's what he does...but, maybe I just wanted something different from the same person?
It was the same idea with a little added tragedy (dead kid) that seemed played down and frankly aggravated me.
I don't know...I do own it, so I will watch it once more before I fully decide. But, a word of warning for those who wanted more than just another Wes Anderson movie.
He's great, I just wish he'd expand or evolve.
What's great about it: Defenately not your regular flick, visually pleasing
What's not so great: Seems like a repeat even though it isn't?

Barry B. Benson (voice of Jerry Seinfeld) is your average honeybee. Despite having recently received his diploma from bee college and being virtually guaranteed a bright future in honey, Barry feels he has the skills to pursue a number of different career paths and resents the fact that his employment opportunities are strictly limited to producing the sweet nectar. Upon breaking away from the hive and developing a friendship with an insect-loving New York florist (voice of Renée Zellweger), Barry makes the shocking discovery that human beings eat honey in mass quantities. Having finally found his calling in life, the infuriated Barry decides to sue the human race for stealing all of the honey that his fellow bees work so hard to produce.

Bee Movie

I was (as always) very excited for a dream works movie to come out and meet Shrek standards, but this movie failed as did many dream works.
I was disappointed in this movie.
The plot was drawn out and there were very little funny parts and then the conclusion was wrapped up super quick.
I would not recommend purchasing this movie unless of-course your kids love it, regardless.
What's not so great: Plot wasn't executed well...drawn out and ended quickly
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Best Scarey Flick in a long time...

This movie was such a relief for a horror flick fan like myself. I was so tired of the "genetic freaks in the forrest" and "the house with a terrible history" movies I could have screamed. All I could think was "there is so much more to be affraid of, right?"
But, it was the same story base rearranged for what seemed like a decade.
Silent hill is scarey! It goes up there with your freakiest scarey dream. The imposssible has been neglected for so long as aspect of what creates fear within our being.
But, really, isn't the unknown terrifying?
This movie ties adventure into fantasy with hard creepy coating.
This movie was refreshing.
What's great about it: Good story line, inventive, different
What's not so great: ?

If you're in the mood for something resembling Conair with a more up-to-date soundtrack this is the movie for you! Purely for entertainment purposes only. It teeters between funny and thrilling throughout the whole movie. This movie would not make a good book.
What's great about it: OVER THE TOP action
What's not so great: Plot is a bit silly< BUT I think that's the point
I would recommend this to a friend!

This release compiles a number of episodes of the animated series Ren & Stimpy that were created specifically for an older audience.

If you appreciated the perversions of Ren&Stimpy on Nick and you wouldn't mind seeing them ramped up a bit this is a sweet dream from heaven.
FUNNY FUNNY FUNNY.
It's Ren&Stimpy for Bob and Carrol vs being for Bobbie and Susie.
What's great about it: Funny and invasive
What's not so great: not kid friendly
I would recommend this to a friend!

Another goodie

I couldn't begin to explain the love in my heart for ATHF. It's one of the funniest shows, hand down.
It's boundless silliness is always surprising and entirely too funny. If I don't know what I want to watch I usually pop in ATHF. I didn't have any doubts about season 5. I wasn't furnate enough to catch any shows on t.v., but I knew I'd want to own it.
What's great about it: The funniest thing ever...
What's not so great: huh?

Dream a little dream
on March 3, 2008
Posted by: sweetmommababy
Good movie to own. Perfect for a sick day stuck at home. Very dream like. Also very different from Eternal Sunrise. It reflects the way dreams are seperated from life in a bit of a silly manner, and I completely relate with it. To have a movie about a person who confuses relately with dream is like a godsend.
What's great about it: Good movie for folks who like the concept of the power of dreams
What's not so great: kinda drawn out and anti-climatic
I would recommend this to a friend!
