BEST "FOR 400 YEARS THAT WORD HAS KEPT US DOWN" Movie Reactions / Tropic Thunder (2008)

[@gl22222]

That “what the fuck” is so perfect.

[@Mopark25]

Brandon is the unsung hero of TT

[@MrMcbear]

It's been used as a sound byte for a lot of things over the years. Perfect delivery.

[@mrz1703]

"Man, just cause its a theme song dont make it not true" 😆😆😆

[@LateCambrian]

People don’t mention it, but the way RDJ caught the punch is hysterical…

[@FresnoCA93727]

Robert Downey Jr would be the perfect replacement for Black Panther.

[@IceSkateUpHilll]

Imagine RDJ Iron Man & RDJ Black Panther fighting RDJ Dr. Doom lmfaooo

[@mad_max21]

No, no. That would be racist. RDJ as Kirk Lazarus as Black Panther would be perfect.

[@Remember-Death]

And Flavor Flav would be the perfect replacement for Iron Man.

[@JohnDoe-tn6dk]

For those of you who view this in the future. Never let this comedy die.

[@wgjung1]

Comedy doesn't die, hack comedians who can't imagine new jokes do.

[@alienboy1322]

​@@wgjung1 Present company included. Just kidding.

[@notsovocal6692]

no

[@davem20us]

You can definitely tell a few of them are too afraid to laugh or are overly sensitive. This whole movie was gold including RDJ.

[@_birdie]

Props to Brandon T. Jackson. His performance + reactions are the reason RDJ’s character worked.

[@grkpektis]

RDJ and Cruise are easily the best part of this hilarious movie but the black guy is really underrated, his reactions are hilarious

[@simontide6780]

I was dying laughing the whole movie. Some people are too scare to laugh😂

[@kryptism]

Im black & l love this movie! When the Wayans played white chicks, nobody had a problem with that!😮

[@complain4163]

It’s not the same… there’s no such thing as “white face” and there’s definitely not a history of “white face” being used in a grand level to make a mockery of white people.

[@bucksafterdark4752]

And no one had a problem with this movie? Robert got nominated

[@kryptism]

@bucksafterdark4752 🤫

[@thatdude3977]

Wayans left diddy house at 3 am 😂

[@bergerman487]

An Australian man playing as a black guy, doing black stereotypes and talking to another black guy about crossing the line. Man, the irony lol

[@paulanderson2963]

Whoever wrote the script for this understood comedy and understood that life is way too short to take it so goddamn seriously. You can choose to be miserable or you can choose to laugh and spread joy. I choose to spread joy even in the worst of times. This movie and it's use of satire should be considered a work of art.

[@UnderseaPumaKing]

I think it was Ben Stiller that wrote it.

[@user-lb9xw4xf2q]

Since The Jeffersons never aired in Australia, when he started singing I was confused but amused; but I had heard of the show, so when it was mentioned, it made the whole exchange even more hilarious!

[@LordEriolTolkien]

Tropic Thunder ranks up there with The Blues Brothers as comedies you can watch over and over and always make you laugh.

[@TiotiopJ]

editor: "how much cuts should we put in?" Aj and selena: yes

[@The-Real-aPOC]

I still find it amazing that there are people that feel uncomfortable with the humor in this movie.

[@Remember-Death]

Considering the history of white men wearing Blackface, I do understand how it can make some people a little queasy.

[@The-Real-aPOC]

@@Remember-Death Pathetic excuse.

[@KMN-bg3yu]

RDJ's greatest role

[@joshuataylor77x7]

You can tell who hasn’t watched actual television and iykyk that this movie is comedy gold and lot of reactions are just political correct lol

[@oldmovieman7550]

The amount of reactors who completely miss that he’s reciting The Jeffersons theme song is discouraging

[@octavius9685]

Tropic Thunder was the wildest shit ever when it came out... Hollywood too soft and incompetent to make this kind of a classic again

[@fyoutube9410]

This scene and the Lance scene were the best scenes in an outstanding movie.

[@-TheShaun-]

A lot of overly political people say blackface is wrong, but the black reactors laughed harder than anyone.

[@deanromanado5850]

You do realize that this is making fun of people who go blackface.

[@JackLawrence-dn2jb]

@@deanromanado5850 I'm getting the vibe that most of the people in this comment section (not you) just want an excuse to use the 'n' word.

[@ShitILike94MFs]

And even if they didn’t who cares, it’s comedy if you can’t handle it fuck off lmao

[@pantheragilt392]

​@@JackLawrence-dn2jb I don't need no excuse.

[@JackLawrence-dn2jb]

@@pantheragilt392 Thanks for the obvious confirmation.

[@TheBTeamOfficial]

I wanna watch movies with that first dude and his pups

[@luminousdragon]

The people who claim this movie couldnt be made today are silly. Thats like saying Indiana Jones couldnt be made because it has nazis in it. Yes, RDJ is in blackface, but the movie makes him look stupid, and the actual black guy in the movie calls him out on his bullshit. RDJs character is making a mockery of certain types of hollywood actors. Just like Indiana Jones makes a mockery of Nazis. The only part of this movie that might actually major flack is the part about "Simple Jack". And yes i know there was some complaint about this movie when it came out, people who have never heard of the term media analysis. but it was never a big thing.

[@Palxco]

Yeah, the initial reading is that it's ripping on blackface, and it is, but in more of an internal hollywood commentary it's also ripping on "method actors" that think that being "in character" means they're allowed to treat fellow actors/crew like shit off-camera. Simple Jack was also a take on neurotypical people writing offensive neurodivergent characters but it was probably a bit too on the nose to really work as well. The "never go full r-word" rant got left out of non-extended cuts.

[@justinpitcock5312]

Has kept US down😂😂.

[@VirtualBilly]

Holy shit dude, BissCute's really pretty.

[@VegasViking420]

Survive! 😂

[@KaijuKaijuUtah]

Love this movie

[@greenpieceofmind]

Everyone needs to stop being so sensitive. I always laugh at exaggerated German impressions, and I'm German. I don't have that accent but it's fun to do. The typical impression that the pigs in Shrek do.

[@christopherking4932]

Hilarious 😂

[@FeelingPoyChina]

funniest movie ever made. period and it'll be a 100 years before we can make another movie this good because everyone is pretending to be offended at everything just so they can sell another 15 seconds of coca cola to kids

[@riftsplitter2159]

I really dont get why everyone was so upset with this, this movie was sooo funny

[@Nuggetmonk]

RDJ should make more comedy...hes hilarious

[@danilobatista251]

These people are too scared to laugh.

[@jerseycatmews828]

Why is video banning part when RDJ is pulling guy into him before the 400 year speech?

[@kevinp8108]

Many of these people reacting didn't realize that it was ROBERT DOWNEY JR. playing a black man.

[@billponderosa88]

Mjwithoutsuperman needs to not watch this.....i can already tell she complained about this movie on ig...same with reactwithjax

[@manupalasseri5381]

Are you following them on Instagram? Don't you have nothing else to do? Get a life dude 😂

[@Torkmastaflex]

Saying that to someone else in the comment section is wild 😂​@@manupalasseri5381
