Phantom Zoolander
Thursday, 12 March, 2026

Zoolander (2001) vs Phantom Thread (2017)The category is "Fashion Industry Films" and we have two very different movies going head to head. Zoolander is an outlandish comedy with wacky jokes and even wackier outfits. Phantom Thread brings a more sophisticated style along with some truly interesting themes on love and desire. Most importantly it's the first appearance by a pair of distinct directors with Ben Stiller and Paul Thomas Anderson. Will either feature score 8 or more stars and be inducted onto the Modern Classics Greatest Films of the 21st Century List? The only way to find out is to pour a big glass of mushroom tea (or an Orange Mocha Frappucino) and give the episode a listen. Please rate, review and follow the show!
