As a Black man, the only thing that offended me about RDJ's portrayal of Kirk Lazarus was that he didn't get an Oscar for that role, because he more than deserved it.

[@TimedRevolver]

Black man overlooked for an Oscar. Typical.

[@IDiggPattyMayonnaise]

Its pretty understandable when you see who he lost to...

[@TimpossibleOne]

We in the black community knew that it was a joke and a parody of how old Hollywood did things. It was a joke and RDJ played it brilliantly. The entire movie was a joke about Hollywood studios, movie agents, actors, racism, bigotry, commercialism, drug use and masculinity. The point of comedy is to have a laugh at the absurdity of real life.

[@joeblowe3180]

That's funny cause black people NEVER satirize themselves. You guys never look at yourselves critically, ever

Well the character was moreso parodying actors that method acted to the extreme and how actors are ironically extremely out of touch with the real world.

I think Brandon Jackson is the unsung hero of this cast. One of the reasons RDJ was able to pull this off was because “Alpa Chino” was calling out his method acting bullshit at every turn. 😂

[@NestorCaster]

All part of the plan! That’s why it works so much… and so many who got all offended by RDJ’s role, missed the plot and part of the reason for Brandon Jackson’s acting choices, and character’s presence.

As a guy who dated an aussie the scene is funnier because he breaks character to slap a guy for disrespecting Australia then improvises the 400 years line to get back into character and make it look like he was offended only by the n word choice.

[@danielj3525]

Well back then NOBODY was calling this shit “blackface” because people were nuanced enough to know the difference. Al Jolsen is “blackface”. “Blackface” is insulting and meant to degrade. It’s black shoe polish and a white outlined mouth; ACTUAL blackface isn’t meant to even look like a real person. Wearing makeup to look like a real black person ( like this movie) is not actually “blackface”.

[@KIRA-EL]

This is true just the way it's shot. when RDJ says what do you mean you people and you can see Alpha Chino in the back looking at the back of rdj's head like what the hell did this dude just say that was masterful

Us Black people are cool with it because RDJ did such a good job with his accent, he was actually trying to sound like a black dude and he wasn’t mocking a black dude. I swear he sound just like one of my uncles.

[@Maibuwolf]

He sounds a lot like the older generations of black men who live here in this small southern town i live in. Its kind of crazy how much he nailed it.

[@iurearaujo8397]

I think that's what makes it work. Lincoln takes his job so seriously that he's oblivious to race conversation. For him, it's just another part, and RDJ not being afraid of the role makes it even funnier. Comedy masterpiece

He didn’t play a black man. He played a crazy actor playing a black man. And never in my life have I ever met one person who was offended by his role or this movie. And even if I did find one, the number of people I have seen/heard enjoy this movie far outweigh the possibly near nonexistent number of people who are offended. The supreme irony is that the dozens of people who claim that this movie couldn’t be made today are themselves being quite sensitive of the supposed outrage of others. Do you know what the opposite of that would be? Not caring. Not caring about people who might take offense. Not claiming to be irritated to the point of victimization- just not caring. To the point where these hypothetical people don’t matter and aren’t even worth mentioning.

[@michaelfreeman6608]

@@SpontaneousAndStructured Being "a crazy actor playing a black man" is the same as playing a black man as I said before. The operative word is (Playing). As far as who may be offended if that movie was made today, I notice you have suggested a small amount. Yet you have no idea the numbers or the level of sensitivity compared to when that film was made. Hollywood is all about making money and today they adhere to the PC generation who are less tolerant of what they perceive as racist, sexist, homophobic, etc. Not caring is most likely the sentiment of most regarding the audience, Yet those who green-light these films do. Which often results in films like Tropic Thunder not being made. You can't name a film made today that is even close to Tropic Thunder, there is a reason for that.

We need to protect RDJ with all we got

[@lamantwilliams1032]

Robert Downey Jr. is a crazy actor. That’s the funniest role I ever seen him in😂 It’s amazing how he portrays this role. He’s an actor you can appreciate as a White billionaire or a Black soldier. Not many actors can do what he does as an actor he was funny but very convincing.

"Maybe I had to represent..........cause they had one good part in for a Black Man and they gave it to Crocodile Dundee......" I feel like that line went above everyone's head ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

Literally no one ever thought this was inappropriate or offensive. Even today.

I remember seeing this in theaters it was amazing

[@aidreinhorn1534]

When I was a kid (4-5) I watched tropic thunder and it was the first time I had ever seen Robert Downey Jr. I only watched the intro seen so I never realized he wasn’t black. It was a few years before I found out.

17:11 I love her laugh on the right🤣

[@swansong487]

I highly recommend to everyone that you check out the commentary. You get a lot of insights from Ben Stiller, Jack Black is late because he stopped to get In-N-Out, and RDJ does in fact stay in character the whole time. It's incredible.

9:19 - "I don't read the script...the script reads me..." 😂😂😂

Fun fact, RDJ stayed in character during the DVD commentary 😂

[@u2zero2u]

Robert Downey Jr's extras for this movie are amazing. Also he really did stay in character for the DVD commentary. Here is one of the extras kzbin.info/www/bejne/jWXYk6R5gtiHpZY and here is the DVD commentary with Ben Stiller, Jack Black and Robert Downey Jr (as Lincoln Osiris) kzbin.info/www/bejne/kHPFf6eGrtlsZ5I

Saw it in the theater. We were howling 😂😂😂😂

[@bebop_557]

This is probably the most clever and hilarious way I have ever seen a movie use the "token black character" for comic relief, the way he calls out RDJ's bullshit every step of the way. They're not making fun of the black character- They're making fun of the guy making fun of black characters.

[@Harbringe]

Tropic Thunder is brilliant. When I first saw it didnt know who RDJ was. So didnt have a clue what the hell was going on , cause I thought he was black , a weird black man , but still black. Wasnt years later till someone told me he is white and watched movie again that I got what the hell was going on.

Big history bro cool

[@thehayes6504]

That is one of the best movies ever. If you have any problem with it. You have more problems than this

[@Riceball80IA]

That quick. “Gimme the god damn map”! Gets me every time.😂
