A Little Funny For You

ridiculouslyAside from the fact that I *heart* Photoshop, I’m still trying to figure out why they based movie!Edward on Derek Zoolander.  I mean, I know Derek and Edward share the same credo and while I don’t think Edward would ever be the type to eugooglize, the similarities are eerie.

It makes one wonder, was Edward ever a male model?  Has he ever lost friends in gasoline play?  Does he know Mugatu?  Is James’s name really Hansel?

I know the merchandising for this insanity isn’t above copyright infringement but have the movie makers really dipped into the Zoolander plot?  Is Carlisle really nothing more than a coal miner that doesn’t favor Edward but in fact is ashamed of him because of his male modeling career?  Only, of course, for Edward to be redeemed when he’s finally able to turn left and whip out the illustrious Magnum.

Is Bella really a journalist capable of breaking down the walls around sweatshop manufacturing in Malaysia and works for Time magazine?  O_o  Ok, maybe not.  But Edward . . .
