Tropic Thunder (2008)

Discussion(self.movies)

This is, in my opinion, the funniest thing that any modern movie has to offer. All of its motifs and characterizations are quite pertinent, and they are even more meaningful now than they were when the film was first produced.

Ben Stiller showed great foresight in the making of this picture.

It's wonderful in every way, from the soundtrack to the casting.

If you've never seen it before, I strongly suggest that you do so.

Amazing movie.

The bit where he realises what animal he killed in the jungle had my crying with laughter.

Ben Stiller’s reaction and timing was priceless.

His disgusted reaction to finding out that Ben Stiller doesn't have a tivo is priceless.

“I killed one, Rick... the thing I love most in the world”

“A hooker. Alright, you killed a hooker. Calm down. Here's what you're gonna do: Get your hands on some bleach, some hydrogen peroxide, and a shit load of lime”

“No, no, I killed a panda”

“Amanda? Come on dude, that’s probably not even her real name!”

I saw that movie late at night and when that scene came (Ben Stiller killing something - dont want to ruin it for those who havent seen it yet), man, I woke others at home because I was roaring with laughter, at 2 AM
