Tropic Thunder
Tropic Thunder was fun. Ben Stiller was funny without being annoying (and his arms were pretty cut ;-) Robert Downey Jr. was totally hilarious - can't get enough of him this summer. Jack Black, Nick Nolte were en forme and Canadian Jay Baruchel (of Knocked Up) was a great straight man (smart guy foil?) Matthew McConaughey and Tom Cruise were great in their cameos. Perfect sendup of Hollywood, right down to Oscar night. Actor-turned-Screenwriter Justin Theroux wrote a hilarious script - great job! Tropic Thunder is worth seeing on the big screen because you're not quite sure exactly when it begins (and the fake trailers keep you guessing). Delighted to hear Jon Favreau is already working on Iron Man 2 with my fave Robert Downey Jr reprising his role and Justin writing the script.

Robert Downey Jr. cracks me up... he's got a real knack for not taking himself too seriously
