Literally EVERYONE was racist, so we as a society would basically have to throw away our whole country to make some of these people “happy” even though they wouldn’t be happy, they’d still find something to complain about. There’s nothing wrong with a little racism in movies or history, it’s actually very beneficial to us especially for the people that believe that racism isn’t a thing anymore.

The secret ingredient to all of this is the "not taking yourself seriously" angle that everything Mel Brooks (and Tropic Thunder) did. It's a parody. It's a spoof. It's intended to be satire. It didn't try to be something it wasn't. It didn't try to take itself seriously and actually play blackface in a "serious" way. I think society has always had openings for satire and parody. We haven't lost that. Tropic Thunder could easily be made in today's hypersensitive culture, as long as the director/actor/actresses do it with, like RDJ says, "with your heart in the right place." Which means if you approach it like satire and execute it like satire, then it'll nail the message/meaning. You'll never satisfy 100% of people. Offense-taking is unavoidable. But the overwhelming majority of Americans (and the world) still has plenty of heart and stomach for satire. It ain't going anywhere. Mel Brooks is a legend specifically because his life's work was pointing at and poking fun at people who take themselves too seriously. If anything, more satire is needed now. So not only do I think Sgt Lincoln Osiris could be done again in today's culture, it would actually be widely successful directly because of how sensitive culture appears to be atm. Counter-culture will never not be a thing.

Seriously though, that wasn't blackface. The role was a white dude that did blackface out of artistic delusion and arrogance ond oblivion. The movie made fun of it. I don't understand how tropic thunder is even in the conversation about blackface.

@shawnj19665 жыл бұрын
It was literally blackface but in a way that showed it's absurdity and his interaction with the actually black actor calling him out on it was the reason it wasn't really offensive. Blazing Saddles is one of the greatest comedies of all time and it uses language that is far more offensive but if you pay attention it is making fun of racism, not promoting it! Some overly sensitive types can't see past the makeup and the language however and they will be offended.

People with common sense and an double-digit IQs understand the message behind RDJr's characterisation. Unfortunately SJWs lack both of those, and thus spoil the fun that everyone else could/should have with the film. We need MORE films like Tropic Thunder, not less; it was fucking hilarious!

@vinniemascaro66493 жыл бұрын
although I love Mel Brooks movies, there is a similar style of humor in them from one to the next. Tropic Thunder was a different style and had a different feel. I feel like this was better than blazing saddles.. but I was always more of a Robin hood: men in tights fan.

Tropic Thunder is without question, the funniest comedy made over the last 40 years. It is on par with anything that Mel Brooks directed, and Richard Pryor wrote. It is comedy genius done at no one's expense! There are no "victims" in this movie, only participants.
