Lurker Posted August 13, 2008 Posted August 13, 2008 There's something funny about this, but I'm probably just reading too much into it...
DrDawkinstein Posted August 13, 2008 Posted August 13, 2008 oh, a group finds it offensive and wants to ban it? that group just added 25% to this movies income.
PromoTheRobot Posted August 13, 2008 Posted August 13, 2008 The more groups like these get upset over minor things that are simply artistic license, the more I ignore them. I may see the movie twice just to spite them. PTR
BillsWatch Posted August 13, 2008 Posted August 13, 2008 The people pushing for a boycott are retards.
Wacka Posted August 13, 2008 Posted August 13, 2008 It got an A- review in the local paper. From the clips I've seen , Robert Downey Jr. is great as the Australian actor acting like a black guy. They said Tom Cruise is also funny in it. He plays the studio head in a fat suit.
KD in CA Posted August 13, 2008 Posted August 13, 2008 A Ben Stiller spoof movie? I don't need a boycott to avoid that. I'm sure it's just loaded with originality.
PromoTheRobot Posted August 13, 2008 Posted August 13, 2008 Speaking of Ben Stiller, he was on Good Morning America along with Jack Black, shilling for "Tropic Thunder." They got roped into some taste testing bit with the GMA crew. Did anyone else notice the "Get me the f**k outta here" look on Stiller's face? He didn't look too happy to be there. Maybe he sees himself as too much of an auteur to be doing such lowball crap. PTR
Just Jack Posted August 14, 2008 Posted August 14, 2008 I'll have to go see the movie first before deciding if I'll boycott it.
stevestojan Posted August 14, 2008 Posted August 14, 2008 I'll have to go see the movie first before deciding if I'll boycott it. That's pretty retarded.
apuszczalowski Posted August 14, 2008 Posted August 14, 2008 A Ben Stiller spoof movie? I don't need a boycott to avoid that. I'm sure it's just loaded with originality. I will eventually see it, even though I dispise Ben Stiller. His Dad should be ashamed for raising a son like him. Obviously he didn't get any talent from his parents or else he may be enjoyable to watch sometime.
Fan in Chicago Posted August 14, 2008 Posted August 14, 2008 That's pretty retarded. ha ha ha ............... o wait, I am not supposed to laugh at that
The Big Cat Posted August 15, 2008 Posted August 15, 2008 IT'S A COMEDY. IT'S NOT MEANT TO BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY? WHO'S THE RETARD?
/dev/null Posted August 15, 2008 Posted August 15, 2008 I remember (but couldn't find a Youtube® clip, sorry) a Family Guy episode where flashes back to when Ben Stiller helped him find his true self. As Ben Stiller flies away (with his giant Dumbo ears) peter remarks...His films are terrible I found out later that really was Ben Stiller's voice Probably the only funny thing he's ever done
tennesseeboy Posted August 16, 2008 Posted August 16, 2008 There's something funny about this, but I'm probably just reading too much into it... Hmmmm...I've never thought Ben Stiller was a retard. Can't say the same for those who actually pay money to see his movies though.
PromoTheRobot Posted August 16, 2008 Posted August 16, 2008 Tropic Thunder is the best thing Stiller has done, though his part is not the strongest. It's Downey, Black, and the "studio mogul." But Stiller wrote and directed it so he gets props. And Retard Defense League should get a sense of humor. PTR PTR
