    Default Zoolander 2 is trans-phobic and sexist! Oh the horror...

    The stupid is overwhelming with some folks...my favorite line in the article is:

    ...political pop culture expert Lisa Durden...says the trailer is inappropriate. "It's 2015 but for some reason the entertainment industry didn't get the memo that it's not OK to negatively depict any group or culture. We must hold people accountable so that everyone feels welcomed and respected. It may be too late to pull the film but the boycott will certainly put Hollywood on notice for future films like this, to be mindful of these stereotypical characters."

    Political pop culture expert? WTF is that and why does she even exist? Go get a real job.

    I would have ignored this film before reading that article, now I will buy a ticket, even though I probably will not watch it.

    I didn't even consider watching it until I read that... now I just want to spite them.

    While they do have the right to be offended, they do NOT have the right to never be offended.

    Stupid is as stupid does. It's a comedy, it's meant to be satirical and funny. Did this idiot not see the first Zoolander? It's a comedy about male models who are two IQ points above being brain dead, what was she expecting? Seriously, get a grip folks, if you're offended by everything you should probably just find a hole and crawl into it so your feelers don't get hurt.

    The first Zoolander was pretty funny and I just saw the trailer for the new Zoolander. I will rent it when it hits Redbox.

    As far as the article goes, not a clue the author has.

    Usually avoid movie theaters like the plague. However, this article, like others have mentioned, makes me want to go see it opening day.
