Ben Stillers' Tropic Thunder full trailer released
Mikey 3 comments
The new Ben Stiller film Tropic Thunder now has a full trailer. I am not a fan of Stillers' films but this one actually looks like it might be a good laugh. I nearly choked on my corn flakes while watching this because for a moment I swear I saw Chris Tucker (IMHO the most annoying and most useless actor in the history of movies), but a frantic check on IMDB eased any concerns.

Wednesday 19th March 2008 | 08:48 AMI read ant article on this movie and knew this would be funny. After that trailer I can't wait to see this.
Here is A Robert Downey quote from the article I read.
[Downey] plays Kirk Lazarus, a very serious Oscar-winning actor cast in the most expensive Vietnam War film ever. Problem is, Lazarus's character, Sgt. Osiris, was originally written as black. So Lazarus decides to dye his skin and play Osiris, um, authentically. Funny? Sure. Dangerous? That's an understatement. ''If it's done right, it could be the type of role you called Peter Sellers to do 35 years ago,'' Downey says. ''If you don't do it right, we're going to hell.''
I have always been a big Downey fan and I am looking forward to seeing Iron Man as well. He is right if they do it wrong they are getting sued like you would not believe.

That said, Jack Black is awesome.
