Support NeoGAF

If I were on twitter, I would try to stoke the flames of this controversy even higher. The fallout would be even more people laughing at these clowns.

This is great

Honestly I can’t believe they got away with blackface in such a recent movie. But hey everyone involved was liberal, so it's ok!

The movie I found to be not very good or funny either, I’ll take one of the Hot Shots over it any day.

How weird and random I was talking about this at lunch the other day with a coworker

 

[ILLtown]

I had a look at the hashtag and pretty much all I could find were tweets from people calling folks who wanted to cancel RDJ retarded.

 

[MDSLKTR]

Now wait till they actually watch the movie and find out there's not a single wahmen in it

 

[GreyHorace]

Seriously? They're only getting offended now? Don't these people realize that Tropic Thunder is a fucking satire of Hollywood? Downey's character is supposed to be making fun of those obsessed Method actors like Daniel Day Lewis who try to literally get in character. Can't these people see the hilarity in that?

Whatever. The movie is still hilarious for me. Everyone is great in it.

Tom Cruise was my favorite character in the movie. Loved his rants.

Ditto, he was the best part.

There are tits in the unrated version. McConaughey is flipping through a porn mag in one scene.

 

[Nymphae]

Also Ben Stiller hamming it up as a full retard, no one seems to point to that at all really, it's arguably the more offensive joke honestly. It's just mocking retards, but the R-WORD.ORG crowd has moved on I guess

 

[manfestival]

Seems like people on twitter are really scouring the internet for things to get mad about. We had orcs are racist the other day and then this.

Makes me really sad that they never developed that movie about his character...

 

[triplestation]

DIET COKE!!!!!!

Black Downey > Tony Stark.

Also. Fuck woke teens.

They are literally making fun of blackface itself.
How can these idiots not get this...

Some people just want to get triggered.

That right there I think explains it all. No one is genuinely outraged about anything these days. They all want just want to act morally righteous to feel good about themselves.

I want to find out what they are going to say about Dave Chapelle doing whiteface in his popular shows run. Maybe that will be the big 2021 controversy.
