"Tropic Thunder"

Tropic Thunder (http://www.apple.com/trailers/paramount/tropicthunder/trailer_large.html)

could this actually be a stiller movie worth seeing?

[Devo37]

i prefer whiteface.

[Judge Smails]

Black Face is funny again

When was it not?

[Team_Ramrod]

When it's all said and done it wil be as highly revered as Zoolander.

[TheMojoPin]

The joke seems to be how ridiculous black face is, especially when gone to such lengths.

I like the part where Ben Stiller gets attacked by an animal, and he screams a lot, and he flails about with the animal attached to him.

:wallbash:

AAAnd the part where the weird looking guy dances to rap at the end.
I did like that song though.

it took me a good hour to realize who the big boss producer was.

I actually thought it was Bob Odenkirk for a bit. :unsure:

There were only a few laugh out loud moments, I wouldnt recommend wasting $$ on it, but definitely see it on netflix or cable.

It will be another Stiller "classic" like Zoolander.

Downey was very good though, at being the dude playin a dude, dressed like another dude.

[TooLowBrow]

either too little comedy or too little action. its like they couldnt decide if it was going to be funny or action packed and in the end they picked blandness

[ChrisTheCop]

either too little comedy or too little action. its like they couldnt decide if it was going to be funny or action packed and in the end they picked blandness

the music was fantastic though! Even the 21st century stuff.

But again, not worth seeing til its out on cable or whatevah.

[Aggie]

Sounds like I'm the only one that really liked it. I'm sure smoking before it didn't hurt. Me and my husband loved it, he wasn't offended by Downey, Jr at all. He thought it was the best part.

Zoolander is one of my favorites...but not a big fan of most other Stiller stuff though.

[Melrapuo]

AAAnd the part where the weird looking guy dances to rap at the end.
I did like that song though.

Yea my friend didn't even know that was Cruise for a while.

Best part of the movie was Jack Black tied to a tree. Some hysterical lines there.

[Contra]

I really liked it. Lots of funny and action. Robert Downey Jr was great. It was nice to see cruise doing comedy. Oh and the faux trailers and commercials were hilarious

[fezident]

but not a big fan of most other Stiller stuff though.

CABLE GUY!
Stiller (directed)... Carrey.... Apatow... Jack Black....the whole thing just WORKS.

[cougarjake13]

not all stiller movies are cinematic masterpieces but they are great in their element of being what they are suppossed to be

stupid bordering on ridiculous comedies

[A.J.]

I saw this last night and thought it was pretty damn funny. Downey was hysterical and Nick Nolte had a really good part as well. It's a great satire of the Vietnam-related war movies as well as Hollywood in general. Downey's character was a parody of Russell Crowe and Jack Black was probably based in part on Chris Farley. I have to give Stiller credit for making the concept work and getting as many stars to appear in it as he did.

i enjoyed the movie

very funny

[Fallon]

I normally don't like Jack Black movies but I thought he was pretty funny. Decent enough movie, had me laughing.

[WampusCrandle]

"oh yes, more beans" FART

my favorite part of the entire movie - you can all hate me.

[Johnny Manf]

this movie was pretty damn funny but I still think Pineapple Express was the funniest of the summer. I got more belly laughs from Pineapple.

But I would definitely pick up both movies on DVD once they are released.

Are you kidding!?!?!

Pineapple Express was HORRIBLE and I love smoking movies and Seth Rogen. Sorry, but you're way off here.

Tropic Thunder is head over heels a better movie than Pineapple.

calm down, these were both let downs

[Johnny Manf]

judging by the last 2 posts, we'll have to agree to disagree.
i'm not WAY off on anything.

[drusilla]

just finished watching it thanks to the awesome dvd vending machine in my supermarket. i thought it was great. i was laughing my ass off from the opening mock preview. stiller was mostly stiller, but everyone else was really good, really funny. tom cruise finally made a movie that i don't hate him in. i don't really see the problem that people were talking about where they think stiller couldn't decide if he wanted to make an action movie or a comedy. i thought it all came together really well. personally, i loved it.

[BlackSpider]

I watched it on Thanksgiving at my sisters.
I missed a few parts, and didn't get much enjoyment from the parts I saw.
I thought most of the "gags" were too overdone and predictable... :thumbdown::thumbdown:

maybe you weren't watching the movie correctly...

were you looking AT the tv screen?
were your EYES open?
did you put in a Tropic Thunder dvd, and not a less funny dvd on the bombings of Nagasaki and Hiroshima?
do you know what laughter is?

these are questions some must answer, when watching this great movie and not laughing...

[biggestmexi]

the movie blew.

ben stiller playing the dumb retarded idiot.....again....WOW!

Jack black playing loud and obnoxious.......again....WOW!

[west milly Tom]

Saw it at the drive in, thought it was great. Loved the Downey Jr angle.

[WampusCrandle]

the movie blew.

ben stiller playing the dumb retarded idiot.....again....WOW!

Jack black playing loud and obnoxious.......again....WOW!

we are on two different wave lengths ... how could this have happened?

[KingGeno]

I saw this over the weekend. Not a good movie, didn't have any real good moments. Jack Black was worthless.

But Tom Cruise and Matthew McConnaughey totally stole the movie. They were funny.

Everyone else blew.

[cougarjake13]

i liked the movie

it did its job


it made me laugh

[NYHCmikeX]

just finished watching it thanks to the awesome dvd vending machine in my supermarket.


DVD vending machines rule. Up your hole Blockbuster!

I liked Tropic Thunder, it wasnt a masterpiece but it made me laugh good a few times. Downey, McConaghy (sp?) and Cruise were the highlights though.

[sailor]

ok, saw it aboot a week ago. liked it much. one thing tho, i'm confused by patrice's review. he kept going on saying how over-the-top racist cruise's character was, but it was redeemed or explained in the last scene. i don't get how the last scene with cruise wrapped anything up. anyone remember patrice saying this and have any insight?

well at the end he does a dance to some ludicris rap song complete with mannerisms you'd see in any rap video



so maybe thats what he was talking about

[El Mudo]

Laughed maybe twice....complete waste of time, and awful

[KingGeno]

Been thinkin about it, but the movie is paced like they made this movie in "webisodes", and then patched it together for the big screen. There was no story support, and it had something funny like once every 15 minutes.

[happytypinggirl]

Im only 30 minutes in...but man i am HATING it. Wow! Didnt this get RAVES from o&a? Ok I'll wait till the end and see what i think...if i can make it.

But right now i'm thinking..this is one of those movies you need to be in a really silly mood to like.

[furie]

It got 83% on rotten tomatoes.

[happytypinggirl]

how???? 50 minutes in now, and begging for mercy. only thing that keeps me from hitting delete is the good music and beautiful scenery of the island of kauai.

im suffering. SUFFERING!

I sat through that pile of shite on Thanksgiving at my sisters.
I don't believe I laughed once through the entire movie...

Ehhh... I thought it was pretty good.

[happytypinggirl]

The ending is extremely painful...

[happytypinggirl]

The ending is extremely painful...

well now its a challenge. i shall not back down from your dare, sir!

[CofyCrakCocaine]

I'd rather watch Vos doing his Rascal's set from the 90's than eat the shit sandwhich that is this movie

[TooLowBrow]

haha, more like tropic BLUNDER!!!

[happytypinggirl]

I'd rather watch Vos doing his Rascal's set from the 90's than eat the shit sandwhich that is this movie

weird. cuz i love vos.

but with 20 min to go...the pain is unbearable. jack black just reached into his ballsack for about 10 minutes before finding a gun tucked up in there. horror. ohh the horror!

[mikeyboy]

You'll regret it.
The ending is extremely painful...

The movie stops making sense about 15 minutes in and makes even less sense by the end.

[happytypinggirl]

oh please tell me a fart didnt just save the day. please tell me i didnt see that!

I love Vos too, but never let him stonewash your car because THAT SET STUNK!
(am I the only one who listened to that?)

[happytypinggirl]

ok i laughed once. when stiller comes running out with half squat (ugh) stabbing at his shoulder with the tiny little knife.

but then i crashed back down to reality when the agent showed up with a tivo.

is it over yet?

the good news is...i recorded it. so i can watch it again and again and again if i want!

I'd rather watch Matty's wife eat straight gravy.

[BeerBandit]

When are people going to realize? If you continue to watch Ben Stiller movies, Ben Stiller will keep making them. Stop the insanity now. He's never been funny. He will never be funny. His movies will always be shit.

[TheMojoPin]

He's never been funny.

False:

http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51CS9BFKGPL._SL500.jpg

Yeah, his movies stink, and TT was no exception, but it actually made me remember how much ass he kicks when doing sketch comedy. TT had like half a dozen bits that would work great as like 5 minute sketches or a "themed" episode of his old show. I remember really loving his show and all the shorts he'd do for MTV back in the day.

[Dougie]

Saw it at the drive in,
Warwick? or is there one in Jersey?

indeed!

[Slumbag]

But Tom Cruise and Matthew McConnaughey totally stole the movie. They were funny.

Dude, I thought McConnaughey sucked ass. It was a nothing role. Tom Cruise was kind of funny, but I don't get the whole dancing to hip hop and why that was supposed to be funny.

jack black just reached into his ballsack for about 10 minutes before finding a gun tucked up in there. horror. ohh the horror!
The only thing worse than that was his "Withdrawl", where he was on the ground doing noises and silly fingers.

I though RDJ was legitimately funny. Steve Coogans awkwardness was good for a couple of laughs, and Stiller was........Stiller. You know, just kind of funny.

It's not the worst movie I have ever seen, but it wasn't great.

Are you sayin' that you didn't find Derek Zoolander funny????:dry:

Just wondering.

[hammersavage]

Yea, cuz Cable Guy, Zoolander, Something about Mary all sucked.

[happytypinggirl]

Yea, cuz Cable Guy, Zoolander, Something about Mary all sucked.

yea i've loved plenty of stiller. not zoolander though. something about mary was great. i also loved meet the parents, and flirting with disaster.

and i liked along came polly, anchorman and dodgeball well enough too.

[Coach]

I really liked it. Thought the part where he "kills what he loves the most" was hilarious.

[Gvac]

I had no interest at all in seeing this movie, but now I'm dying to watch it.

Uh oh.

On second thought...

[BeerBandit]

Yea, cuz Cable Guy, Zoolander, Something about Mary all sucked.
Liked it, awful, awful.

Meet the Parents: awful
Mystery Men: awful, and I really wanted to like it.

The Ben Stiller Show: I haven't seen any of it since it was on, but I remember not liking it. I know my tastes have changed over the years, so there's a chance that I might find it funny nowadays. But then again, I still don't think The State is funny.

[tanless1]

i concurr, zoolander blewwww. i did enjoy mystery men. perhaps your expectations are to high. yes,like your expectations of my good spelln

[TheMojoPin]

But then again, I still don't think The State is funny.

You're fired.

FROM LIFE.

[TheMojoPin]

Tom Cruise was kind of funny, but I don't get the whole dancing to hip hop and why that was supposed to be funny.

Such a lazy fucking joke.

"It's Tom Cruise...with his hair cut funny...in a fat suit...DANCING TO THE HIP-HOP! LOLERRRRRRRZZZZZZZZZZZZ!!!"

[happytypinggirl]

Such a lazy fucking joke.

"It's Tom Cruise...wih his hair cut funny...in a fat suit...DANCING TO THE HIP-HOP! LOLERRRRRRRZZZZZZZZZZZZ!!!"

oh man i sooooo agree.


want to see Tom Cruise in an unexpected and very funny and full of talent role? Watch magnolia. This was just shite.


With he other stiller roles, mood plays a lot into it. You have to be in the mood to enjoy silly over the top parody. I just couldnt seem to find that mood for this one. And doubt i ever will. Maybe its just cuz im getting old.

[GvacMobile]

Maybe?

[Furtherman]

But then again, I still don't think The State is funny.

Get yourself to a doctor, ASAP. Something is wrong!

[sailor]

Maybe?

enough with the age jokes already.

The State was one of the funniest shows ever to be on TV. God, please kill Timmy. Its fucking priceless.

[BeerBandit]

Get yourself to a doctor, ASAP. Something is wrong!

Seriously?

Fair enough.

I had no idea there were that many people who thought that show was funny.

I guess if MadTV lasted this long...

[drusilla]

stiller is always the worst thing in all his movies. its always everyone else that makes them enjoyable.


& i LOVE mystery men.

[BeerBandit]

Perhaps there are two kinds of people in this world.
Just like there are Arrested Development people and there are Everybody Loves Raymond people, I guess there are The Kids in the Hall people and there are The State people.

[Furtherman]

There is an error in your formula. Raymond cannot be listed among those shows.

[BeerBandit]

There is an error in your formula. Raymond cannot be listed among those shows.
Now you understand my position because to me, the analogy is accurate.

[west milly Tom]

I like all three as well, Raymond is a different type show, but its still funny.

[midwestjeff]

Fuck this.

[NYHCmikeX]

Now you understand my position because to me, the analogy is accurate.

AD was hilarious and just not appreciated by the masses. Raymond is just formulaic sitcom drek.

Kids in the Hall and the State were both funny and none of the three should be mentioned with shit-ass Raymond.

[west milly Tom]

Fuck this.

Language mister.

[west milly Tom]

And you're all leaving out, "Strangers With Candy". Which is also better than Raymond.

[NYHCmikeX]

And you're all leaving out, "Strangers With Candy". Which is also better than Raymond.

I didnt like that show, but never really gave it a chance either. And it was still funnier than Raymond. A malignant tumor on my brain stem would be funnier than that shit.

I wish I could find the clip of the "Operation: Hell on Earth" sketch. Probably one of the best endings to a comedy sketch ever.

When was the last time you even saw The State?

Probably not since it was on. I don't know if I even have the fortitude to sit and watch it anymore. I'm not as ambitious as I was in my adolescence.

Three of the stars of R911! came from there...another trio split off and formed the comedy trio Stella.

And I don't care for Stella either. Comedy Central had there special on a couple of weeks ago. Douche chills.

The special is not very good. As much as I love Stella, I would never want to see them live. They work making the short films and the series, but not live. It's not stage comedy. Did you ever see the series?

No I never saw the series. I knew who it was made up of and it didn't interest me at all. Now I've had a couple friends who share a close opinion of The State with me actually recommend Wet Hot American Summer. I'll throw it on my queue and give it a shot.

The series is much different from the stage show and, IMO, much better. If you do give it a shot, the first episode, as with most series, is by far the weakest, but from there it just goes insane and amazing.

WHAS is also great.

I'm kinda fascinated as to how you seem so anti-everbody from The State. Do you not like Reno 911! at all?

This is just me looking too far into this dumb movie, but this has been bugging me.

The Ben Stiller character wins the Oscar for best actor at the end. But Best Actor in what? There were no cameras in the woods, they were going the wrong way. So what footage did they use that garnered him an Academy Award win?

Hello. EXACTLY!

That occurred to me too but I didn't have the balls to admit that I was somewhat confused by the plot.


Along those same lines:
I also don't understand why Satan appears at the end of The Tenacious D movie (The Pick Of Destiny). It's never really explained but the audience just accepts it.

I saw a test screening, so they might have changed it, but didn't they use the footage that they did got (and really, there's absolutely no way logistically they could have gotten most of the footage of what happened to them), as a documentary. If that's the case, how can you win best actor for appearing in a documentary?

[cougarjake13]

didnt the director put all kinds of cameras throughout the forest and what not to capture them more realistic or something like that he said



from wiki for what thats worth


Footage from the hidden cameras is compiled into a feature film, Tropic Blunder, which ends up becoming a major critical and box office hit and a multiple-Academy Award winner. The film breaks Speedman's streak of flops and he wins Best Actor

[TheMojoPin]

Oh, right. All the cameras they set up in the jungle filled with the crazy milita guys. That makes total sense.

Hell, I wasn't even paying attention...what were those people? Drug lords?

DirecTV PPV has this new thing where they go in and automatically erase your PPV "Rental" recording after 24 hrs. This must be a new feature, although I do not PPV vey much as a habit. Normally this would piss me off. The Big Brother Video Pollice could not get this suckfest off of my hard drive fast enough. $3.99 and 2 hrs of my life I will never get back. Awful.

For those of you who own the dvd, go to SPECIAL FEATURES and click on "PSA from Dreamworks".

It's the most insincere thing I've seen in a while. A montage of children and adults with various mental & developmental disorders.... and lots of "they're just like us" captions running at the bottom.


It feels reeeeally forced.

[JAndreaNineSixorz]

Oh come on! Ya gotta love THE CABLE GUY. He directed it brilliantly. And... Zoolander is f'ing funny.

I've finally realized that Zoolander is the ONLY Ben Stiller character that I like. If somebody else had directed and played his part, I truly think the film would have been 100x more enjoyable.

Truth.
If the plot revolves around his little kid, I'm out.

The wacky kiddie plots always ruin it.
