New Images from Tropic Thunder — More Blackface Downey Jr!
Paramount Pictures has released a slue of pictures from ShoWest in Las Vegas, and since I am currently in Austin for South by Southwest, I am of course working on that instead of finishing my review of Forgetting Sarah Marshall. This first update includes two great new looks at Ben Stiller’s Tropic Thunder, which as you will remember, stars Robert Downey Jr. as a pretensious actor whose part was originally written for a black man, so he dyes his skin to fit the part.As I said before, I am getting more and more excited about this comedy as the marketing campaign begins to gear up. Consider this just the next step in the building of my excitement. I say bring on the ridiculous premise! Take a look at the new pictures below.(Click to Enlarge)
