Exactly. Has nothing to with the second movie.

Personally, I wish he would've done Magnum instead.

:rolling:


"Zoolander is one of my favorite movies, so I was really excited when I heard that a sequel was in the works! I have met Ben Stiller a few times and let him know how much I love Zoolander. I guess flattery occasionally gets you somewhere, because I was asked to do a Derek Zoolander t-shirt graphic to be used in a scene in Zoolander No. 2! Of course I got to work immediately trying to illustrate a ridiculously good-looking ridiculous portrait of Derek. The Zoolander team liked my t-shirt design enough to ask me to do some more portraits of Derek for the Blu-ray release of the original Zoolander film! I gladly accepted with one condition… that I be allowed to make a limited edition screen-printed poster of the portrait. The not-to-be-missed movie, "Zoolander No. 2”, comes out this Fri., Feb. 12, and the “Zoolander Blue Steel” print comes out Tues. Feb. 16...."


It's OK to admit it's a paycheck commission for OBEY. We all need to eat.

Or he just wanted to do something not serious and still get paid for it. It's been known to happen...

exactly.

A guy who had made his career rallying against the "machine" making a drymounting Derek Zoolander print for Paramount. Which you may not know is a subsidiary or Viacom. Viacom has donated extensively to Hillary Clinton's campaign. Yet, Shepard endorses Bernie Sanders.

Cash rules everything around Shep, CREAM get the money, dolla dolla bills y'all.

Hypocrite.

Good luck to everyone buying an extra value meal for their family from flipping this print.

It's not the same old tired stuff.. I like it!

Best part is it's not covered in terrible type.

Are people really taking this seriously and complaining about it? It's a fun poster for a stupid movie. Maybe I'm alone, but I'd much rather have this than another "oil is bad" poster.
