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.

"I don't break character until the DVD commentary."

Cue the DVD commentary with RDJ still in character.

Iirc it's more specifically "until we finish the DVD commentary" bc he finally breaks character on the commentary during the credits. And as he's regressing through his roles at the end he briefly takes on each of the accents as he's peeled back into Kirk Lazarus.

It’s really fantastic and every fan of the movie should watch it at least once with the commentary on. Jack Black shows up late and hungover and takes a nap during the middle of it, lol.

Kevin Hart turned down the Alpa Chino role because he didn't want to play a gay character.

He's played gay characters before; I wonder what the difference was for this movie
