It's all well and good that Ben Stiller works consistently as the prolific writer/director/actor/all-around funnyman that he's made himself out to be. And while we're happy about all of his upcoming projects like this week's "The Watch" and next year's "The Secret Life Of Walter Mitty," the movie we'd really like to see him make sooner rather than later is that long-rumored/delayed sequel to "Zoolander."
Stiller's co-star Owen Wilson has mentioned a few intriguing details about the plot of the proposed film, which he's affectionately dubbed "Twolander" or "Zoo 2," in recent years, but since we haven't heard anything from Derek himself lately, we had to get an update from Stiller when MTV News caught up with him during the "Watch" press day.
According to the film's IMDb page, which we all know tend to include "creative interpretations" of facts every now and again, Stiller's "Watch" co-star Jonah Hill is "rumored" to be involved with "Zoolander 2." We asked Hill and Stiller for their thoughts on the subject and of course, the reliability of those IMDb "facts."
"Sure [I'd do it], if he hires me," Hill said.
Who didn't want to be a mermaid princess like Ariel when Disney's award-winning film was released back in 1989? She's independent, smart, talented, such a total package. There's probably some complaint to be issued about how her desire to be a human is anti-feminist or something, but I know that Eric totally would have changed himself into a mermaid for Ariel if the situation was reversed.

"Sure, there are some handsome actors who take their clothes off in an R-rated Steven Soderbergh movie about male strippers. So what?"
But fret no longer, gentlemen. We're here to tell you what's what in our handy love/hate guide to "Magic Mike."
HATE All The Reverse Sexism
If there was a movie being released about a bunch of hot female strippers, there is no way straight guys would get away with the kind of consistent excitement that has been expressed via detailed Facebook and Twitter posts, as well as casual conversations. The feedback would be all rolled eyes and "You're sexist!" comments.
