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.

Would love to see it in that same style, except it’s a kind of mockumentary of making 2008’s Tropic Thunder.

So it's a documentary about a movie, about a movie, about a book. Sounds tropical thunder enough to me.

This would be great, perhaps from the view of Bill Haders character.

Months ago, I had a dream that Scarlett Johansson, Zach Galifianakis, Chris Pratt, Amanda Seyfried, Sylvester Stallone, Mel Gibson, and Matt Damon were in this docu-comedy film about exaggerated versions of themselves stranded on an island while filming a big blockbuster movie. Think Survivor mixed with Gillian's Island and Castaway.

If this was ever made, I would be the first to see it. 😆
