  • What happened to "Imitation is the highest form of flattery"?

  • I'm sorry...they protested using the word 'retard' but they didn't protest Pineapple Express. Know where, where they not only sold weed to middle school kids, but they smoked it with 'em. Fucking stupid politicaly correst dumbasses.

  • God damn retarded ass-pussy protesters...

  •  why protest? ITS A FUCKING JOKE!!! if u cant take the humour of life then whats the point in living?

  • People who get offended easily are either people with hidden agenda or people with serious self-confidence issue

  • Oh boo fucking hoo. The onus is on you to be offended, it's your problem. This goes for anything, I honestly don't understand people who claim to be 'offended' by things. Yes, there are things that annoy me and piss me off, but I can't really say I'm offended by anything. Being offended isn't a reaction, it's something you have to actually work at, take a good running start at it. You have to WANT to be offended.

  • Damn! I'm out of shoe polish. ;])

  • I really didn't like this movie.

    It wasn't that funny.

    It was just stupid.

    It had a great premise though, and the ending was great.

    But other then that the jokes were mostly bad

  • @Mrreebo watch it again, i hated it the first time i watched it as well, now i find it hilarious

  • @mouchochi13

    ya, ya.......i did watch it again after i watched this................

    It wasn't as horrible as I gave it credit for.

    It was actually a lot better then i remember it.

  • one of the most epic movies ever!!!! how da fuck could u not laugh ur ass off at this??? seriously if you couldnt laugh at this u HAVE NO SENSE OF HUMOR!!!!!! :)

  • @Ebagramirez agree agree agree!!!!! pple take things to serious

  • People do know this is a comedy, right? Not like these guys are the most moral guys out there.

  • I do use the word "Retard." I use it for stuff that's stupid. I mean, I rather be called retard then special any day. Being called special is a little patronizing.

  • i love you jack black♥♥!! xb

    ps:this movie is owesome!! jaja :D

  • if you don't like the movie because it makes fun of you, then don't watch. you don't have to become a fucking pussy and ruin it for everyone else, only assholes do that...

  • anyone thinks ben stiller is woods? in call of duty? anyone? he looks like woods! hehehe

  • ben stiller looks like woods from COD black ops

  • @maviekun black ops copy a lot of things from this movie you know?

    just compare the dates of this movie and the black ops being made..

  • People are too serious and they get offended over everything! This movie is awesome! It's taking the piss of the Hollywood movie industry more than anything else. To not offend anyone no-one would ever be free to say anything!

  • Fuck that noise. My brother is a retard. When I come come home, I call him retard. When I go to sleep, I call him retard and he doesn't even get it. i just don't give a fuck. It's like getting mad about people saying things are gay. It's not aimed at gay people. It's not even aimed at a gay person around you. It's just a figure of speech like saying something is sick or sweet. If I want to say retard, I'm going to say retard. Get over it.

  • Full...Metal...Retard

  • where is the protest asshole ?

  • I like nam films, the deerhunter is one of the best films ever made and I know Tropic Thunder is supposed to be a comedy but.... what a waste, a really awful film with no substance and no humour. Everyone involved should be absolutely ashamed of themselves for making such a shit and pointless film that must have cost lorry loads of money.

  • @shinobi38 someone went full retard....^

  • @shinobi38 hmmm yes I guess you know more about movies than everyone else who liked this movie...which was a majority of people who reviewed it

  • @starhawks1 Thats right I do, the people who 'reviewed' the film (including Jonathan Ross) don't have a fucking clue what they are talking about.

  • @shinobi38 mmmm hmmmm so everyones wrong but you? you might want to check your logic there...

  • @starhawks1 Well, I'm not the only one who didn't like the film and a proper crtitic, such as mark kermode wouldn't like it either.

  • @shinobi38

    critics are just people who failed to make it as actors, writters and directors. its all just down to personal opinion. critics ruin films. if they said the godfather was shit and the film never made any money would you automatically say its shit?

  • @Glaswegianmark I know that, thats my point, the critics rated this film and it sucks.

  • @shinobi38

    to be honest i never really liked it lol. i did think the tom cruise scenes were brilliant and i enjoyed robert downey Jr. but thats 2 parts of the film i enjoyed

  • poor danny mcbride, no mention

  • Im a dude playing a dude disgused as another dude. haaha

  • I think the comments made in the film only point out the exploitation of mentally challenged not celebrate it. If anything hes making a social commentary, not a slight on the 'tards.

  • lol why is everyone so mad?? i guarantee Ben Stiller is laughing at you assholes.

  • "Dozens" is the key word here. Probably why the rest of us never heard of any protest. I'm guessing these people are fucktarded, as opposed to REtarded - something you can't help. 

  • retards wouldnt even know if your making fun of them or not so why's it matter

  • Even though this is old its dumb that they protested. Its not like they meant what they said. They're just acting and its a funny movie.

  • Fuck this idiots!! IS A FUCKING MOVIE!! You dont see germans doing this shit for every single movie about nazis killing people!!

  • JUST PLAIN FUNNY 

  • BIG ASS TITTIES

  • protest? why?

  • Charlie Sheen just went Full Retard...

  • Wow, entire dozens.

  • 115 people are retards!

  • @jamsstar2010 you are a retard for trying to get away wtih the fact of just wanting to be on the highest rated comments. By posting something that had no value whatsoever.

  • @Rorschach1030 whats your problem you moron?got nothing better to do then bitch over a silly little comment,maybe your the retard for making such a big deal out of nothing!what are you,the youtube police?no so go do something better with your time!read previous comments about the retard situation ill think youll find it makes sense.

  • Why are we using it? Why don't we stop?

  • Ben stiller is playing a dude, disguised as simple jack! Ben stiller in turn is going full retard. That's how much of genius the guy is.

  • I'm the dude playing the dude, disguised as another dude!

  • The movie was hillarious, I enjoyed it very much...have to buy the DVD and I hope there will be a second part...anyone know about it???? Thanks :))

  • @jackrussel0123 nope....haven't heard on tropic thunder, but they will do a spin-off movie with Tom's Cruises character. They announced that after the last MTV mustic awards.

  • @amazeblaze OK Thanks for your answer, have a good day, bye

  • ridiculous. the ward is part of english. simply means mentally handicapped person. they do exist. the word does exist. retard is also used figuratively to simply call somebody stupid. which is what he does here. all the people protesting the use of the word are retards to some degree. it's a word. it's not an action. nothing been done to you dear beloved retards. you are just retarded, so you do retarded acts in a retarded way. the actual problem is in the education system.

  • U.S.A people always protest if there's money to make. I'm pretty sure those associations protesting about THE BAD WORDS fed an army of lawyers during a couple of months ... again ...

    Does liberty of expression still have any sense in your country "you people" ?

  • Those protesters completely missed the point.

  • 0:00

    

  • i think if your okay with the jokes and rude humor in this movie then you should watch it probably smoke a joint frist and laugh your ass off... and if your not okay with it then dont watch it and go watch eat pray love and stop complaining about it and ruining other peoples fun cuz i dont go around complaining about your movies so id prefer you do the same cuz like Tupac said "You dont have to bump this but please RESPECT IT" not everyone enjoys the same things but they should get to enjoy them

  • surprised no m16s jammed in this movie :/

  • Makes me laugh all these people sayin if it was the n word it never would have been passed, but alpacino say it in the film, its only said once but does that mean if the r word is only said once then that would be ok? Ha, silly people.

  • Wow, dozens. Stop the fucking movie!!!! Dozens of people dont like it!!!!

  • i thought it was a great take on Hollywood action movies and the entire film industry as a whole.

  • im black and i wasn't offended by Robert Downey Jr.'s preformance and his make up was pretty covincing. now if he was dancin in black face saying "where the kool aid" at? then I would probably have a problem with it

  • 112 people went full retard

  • this movie is a great comedy movie. they made it for ppl who like comedy not for ppl to protest against it. duh! protesters want to make a point at the wrong times. if the movie was never made they wouldnt have anything to go against

  • it's important that my costume be moist

  • this movie didnt liv up to my expectations, I hardly ever lol, just when the chinese said "hes not afraid of death"

  • If you're offended, just be fucking offended and leave it at that. These groups' collective intelligence (because they can't think individually) offends the fuck outta me, on every possible level, but I'm not gonna cry about it like a little kid (ie go full retard). No one really gives a fuck.

  • @kodierungHerz haha apparently we can't because someone somewhere may hear that and it just might "offend" someone... People are too freaking sensitive

  • Whoa, whoa, whoa! Americans, I can't say the word "retard" anymore??? =S

  • " who left the firgde open"

  • Worst movie ever...

  • Fucking Liberals Morons. Someone should just rip their balls off to stop them from contaminating the rest of the world.

  • This movie was hilarious.

  • My cousin who I'm pretty close to has down syndrome. So does that mean that me and my cousins didnt laugh at this movie? No cuz it was hillaious and I know what a joke is. Also I know several people who died in combat that doesnt change the movie either

  • I'm mentally retarded and I thought this movie was hilarious. That's because I could take a joke, which makes me not retarded.

  • Lmao, "You never go full retard".

  • After watching this, it would be more appropriately named 'Behind the Scenes'...didn't see any footage of people protesting in the video my friend, even IF you have a whole article about it in your notes. After all, this IS Youtube, not a blog. Just sayin...Anyhow, thanks for sharing. :)

  • Protest what? It's a movie and it was hilarious and meant to be entertainment. If you don't dig it then don't go see it. Movie was great and not meant as a statement on anything. Lughten up!!

  • Personally, I thought the movie was excellent. And while that's my personal opinion, it's fairly obvious that people are way too sensitive these days.

  • I'm a landfarmer motherfucker!

    Best line ever and best voice ever :p

  • @bollabling uhh he said Lead Farmer Motherfucker

  • You realize that the film does not intentionally make fun of the challenged...it makes fun of movies that extort them. Any actor knows that if they play in a drama depicting a mentally challenged or disabled person, they will be in line for an Oscar, and thats why film studio's do them. This movie picks on those studios that take advantage of that.

  • @Foxtrot1138 well put. people got wayyyyy too up-in-arms over this movie because of the word "retard." banning a word doesn't make it magically go away, either. what a wasted effort.

  • Arguing on the internet is Full Retard

  • @FlyingBySea what are u talking about its fun not once have i ever argued and fund it anoying loosen up a little dude.

  • @FlyingBySea hats off for going there.

    LOL.

    you can go home empty handed lol.

  • @FlyingBySea Arguing on the internet is like the special olympics, it doesn't matter who wins, both people are still retarded.

  • @JRFproductions Wow, that's old...

  • @FlyingBySea Right on!!! LOL!

  • Look, you can't presume to tell people what should or should not offend them.

  • @vollsticks And just because something offends you, you shouldn't assume that you are its intended audience or that you have a right to censor it.

  • Hi brother needs to chat a, Asian women busizz4me.info

  • People hated this for mental retardation issues. How trite.  Are people really this stupid?

  • Americans are fat.

    Asians are small.

    Mexicans are illegal immigrants.

    Scots are drunks.

    Black people like chicken.

    But if we joke about mental retardation we're crossing the line.... We need to learn how to laugh at ourselves and not take these stereotypes too serious..

  • @el3m2tigre in some ways i agree with you, but mental retardation doesn't seem fair. I mean they are already down as it is, and not to mention they just don't understand. Doesn't seem fair to pick on a group that can't defend themselves

  • @el3m2tigre wait.... asian r small??? not true....

  • @Ragensu64 Welp, thats the stereotype.

  • @el3m2tigre

    And what would the "stereotype" of someone with Downs Syndrome, or Autistic?

    The other things you've mentioned are, yes, stereotypes. Although I think you misunderstand that what makes them stereotypes is the fact that they aren't true.

    They are bigot filled characterizations meant to demean another, hiding behind the guise of humor.

    However, when you make fun of the handicap, it isn't some silly untruth you can giggle away because you find it absurd, it's their life.

  • @diedahero Absolutely true, but my comment wasn't meant for the people with the syndrome because i doubt they find it insulting since they don't completely understand the situation. The people who take actions are the one trying to defend them. It's as if they find it insulting FOR them. But you're absolutely right. The people with down syndrome can't do anything about it. But like i said, this wasn't entirely directed towards them.

  • @el3m2tigre

    You realize you never answered the question, correct?

    I get your outlook, "The world is tough, thicken up your skin." I get that you feel as if someone doesn't understand you're mocking them for your own amusement it makes it more justifiable. I even got the very thinly veiled shot you took at me for posting this reply to you.

    However, what I never got was the stereotype you felt handicap people should stop being so sensitive about.

  • @diedahero Ok...if you honestly think i was trying to show you off then you're sadly mistaken. Well, according to the movie, it seems that the "mentally retarded" are stupid and are not capable of doing anything by themselves. This is not true. There are many people diagnosed with down syndrome that possess a very good education just like a normal person would.

    What i meant by my past comment was that we shouldn't give a second thought about what people say or think about us.

  • @el3m2tigre they aren't even making fun of people who are mentally handicapped, just the actors who take the rolls of characters who are handicapped/special. I don't think the protesters noticed it, but then again most protesters go following blindly.

  • @MrKevstro= Those pc people need to get their heads out of their asses, and grow a funny bone. And, yes. I meant those people.

  • @MrKevstro most protesters usually never see the thing, just follow someone's orders to protest. It's called narrow mind, I believe.

  • @el3m2tigre yea, well, at least we should pick on people who can defend themselves instead of the tragedy of a undeveloped brain for their entire lives.

  • @johndtuttle My brother has Autism... Like, the "Can't talk of bathe himself" Autism...

    I laughed my ass off at this movie. If ANYONE has reason to be insulted, it's the guy with the mentally handicapped brother. Fortunately, the guy with the mentally handicapped brother is also a honky, a fat american, a stinking Irish drunk, an Inbred Englishman, a homophobe, and a dago...

    And he can take a fucking joke. I guarantee you my brother doesn't give two shits about this movie. Fuck being PC. Laugh

  • @ItheSwick AMEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @el3m2tigre you forgot americans are fat and serial killers ;)

  • @el3m2tigre Mexican people are Immigrants ..!!!????

    Thats just Racist Well about 80% of what you said was Racist

  • @TheMrmaca55 Thats the stereotype :/

  • @TheMrmaca55 Vrooom right over your head...

  • @el3m2tigre Irish are stereotypicaly drunks...I'm from ireland so i know and im not a fake irish like in america i actualy live in ireland ive never heard scots been the drunks i tought stereotypicaly they were know for their cilts and bagpipes

  • @ryanair737400 So if your Irish and you live in America then your DNA is fake and your not Irish? Exactly how does that work?

  • @el3m2tigre, so jokeing about Illegal immigrants is okey, but to mental retardation not? like some humans are more worth than others..? m8 you´re lost...

  • @DonChilenito Good god please show me the exact quote where i said that. I was just saying people shouldn't take these stereotypes so seriously. Some humans are worth more than others? Dear lord where are you getting this crap from?

  • @el3m2tigre Yeah.. but it more the Irish who are the drunks..... But still true.

  • @el3m2tigre

    That's why I'm taking the word Retard back.

  • @el3m2tigre so war about white pple........

  • @el3m2tigre

    Whoa-ho-ho-ho. What do you mean black people like chicken? XD

  • @el3m2tigre The same can be said about black people jokes.

    A black person makes fun of white, asian etc but a white person only does to its race, double standards is retarded.

  • @el3m2tigre How is liking chicken an insult? It's delicious.

  • @el3m2tigre hows about I beat you over the head with a bat and make you mentally retarded so you can enjoy the mentally retarded jokes even more?

  • @SWIFTzTrigger Mental retardation is a genetic disease. Get educated will ya?

  • @el3m2tigre you wanna be next do ya?

  • @SWIFTzTrigger Next for what?

  • This is stupid.  Period. No wonder America's overall I.Q. is lower than that of other "civilized" societies. American's (and I am one but to smart to waste time on bullshit) get what they deserve always. Thanks :-)

  • @mrbrandon71 You're so smart that you don't know the difference between 'too' and 'to'. Way to go genius. ;-)

  • @OceanicCactus and your not smart enough to realize that things typed in haste sometimes contain an error or two. you obviously understood my comments, cockcucker, so sit back and shut your mouth.

  • @OceanicCactus well now the fact that you had to read three times what most intelligent people would immediately recognize as a very simple typographical error tells me that you are the one who is the genius :-) And thank your pointing out my errors I will try to do better henceforth :-) Enjoy your day.

  • @mrbrandon71 what oceanic said....

  • What about Michael Jackson going white??!!? If fuC&*^% scum suckers would stop talking about racism it would simply go away. Quit playing into everything for chrissakes.

  • " im a dude playing a dude disguised as another dude " R.D.J. genius !

  • Kirk: "Back before the war broke out I was a saucier in San Antone. I bet I could call up some of them greens. Yeah. Doin some crawfish out the paddock yo. Ha! I made us some crabapples, for dessert now, yo! Hell yeah! Ha!"

    Alpa: "Hell yeah! Ha! Thats how we all talk. We all talk like this ah. Yes aha. Yeah mmm hmm get some crawfish and some ribs ah! Yeah! You are Australian. Be Australian! 'Scuse me Kangaroo Jack."

    Kirk: "I get excited about my foods, man."

    Best comedy ever!

  • Lighten up, Francis. 

  • Don't let P.C. ruin humor for Americans. There is a difference between a hate crime and a joke, everyone. Hilarious, absolutely. Offensive, definitely. Life is offensive. Get over it. I don't have a regime of protesters every time someone offends me. It was singling out anyone, or deliberately being cruel, it was just pushing the envelope a little and it was genius. And honestly, Robert Downey should get a freaking oscar, his acting was outstanding.

  • sigh.... i wonder how many actual reta....mentaly disabled people could watch and know what was going on enough to be offended, the simple jack moments were few and far between anyway

  • i want nick fury to be white again too

  • i want nick fury to be white again too

  • this was one of the best movies i've ever seen! Jack black was fucking hilarious, RDJ plays a better black man than Denzel haha, and Ben is just flat out kick ass!

  • Comment removed

  • Japan did "female" facing in their traditional Kabuki opera shows. And to my knowledge, at least when tradition matters, still do not use females in it. I never watched all of White Chicks and I thought they were not being racist, just extremely stupid. However there was a movie, I am not sure of the name, the actor played in a series on PBS called Chef, a black theater man that ran into some trouble and turned himself into a white Italian (I think) mobster. Now that was a good movie.

  • I just did not find it all that funny. Maybe because the disk did not work and I had to get a new one, but regardless. To my memory, people were also protesting or at least leaving the movie due to the use of the word "nigger" or "nigga". And because Downy was doing black face. Now others can argue that never happened, but that is what I remember hearing from the news. Black facing came way before or when there were few black entertainers in movies and there were "Native American" facing as well

  • This movie was not really funny to begin with. I mean the best parts were the opening "movie" sequences, when Jack is tied to a tree and at the end when Downey was dressed as the enemy and killing stuff. Besides that I hardly laughed. But those three parts I just mentioned, especially the opening sequences, I watched over and over again!

  • @Jerrid3 how did you not laugh? come on this is such a funny movie! i laughed so much during this movie! "yo asshole, this motherfuckers dead! aint no criss angel mindfreak, david blane horseshit jumpin' off here!" hahah just to mention one out of many funny as hell quotes!

  • @Hellcaller92 HAHAHA, loved that part too.

  • @MDBacken hahaha i know!! so many funny quotes! "i don't read scripts, scripts read me" "what the hell does that even mean?" "what you getting at the book script spit that shit out man!" hahaha oh downey jr.. jay baruchel was actually not that awkward in this movie haha

  • @Hellcaller92 getting at with the *

  • they didn't add the best scene ..."I'm a lead farmer motha fucka"

  • I didn't find this that funny but bloody hell, fighting against being called a retard when you are one is a bit fucking... retarded.

  • @KidsWithGuns1992 the handicapped where protesting cause of the use of the word retard that was used like 10 times in the movie and the description they used with it. i can see why they protested but i personally think it was totally unnecessary

  • @Hellcaller92 Ah yeah I agree but still how sensitive can people be? I just think some people try too hard to make everything politically correct.

  • @KidsWithGuns1992 exactly! i completely agree

  • Comment removed

  • Retarded people were protesting that retarded people don't act retarded...?

    aight...

    And btw, Black people are the racists now, kthnxbai.

  • People need to not get their panties in a wad anymore, period. Everyone wants to feel they are entitled to being offended. They are not.

  • This is not offensive at all i mean you dont see people like "Simple Jack" in the real world. This is stupid.

  • @cypresspuz agreed, some people take themselves way too seriously and just can't take jokes

    There's a lot of people that need to learn to laugh.. People in the UK constantly file complaints to Ofcom about things they don't like on TV lol People need to loosen up

  • so, i'm confused: is it the retarded people who are protesting, or the people advocating on behalf of the retarded people who are protesting? cuz if it's the latter, that seems pretty retarded.

  • Downey was awesome in this movie. You know, I forgot he was white tonight for an hour and a half. He's a dude, . . . playin a dude, . . . disguised as another dude.

  • Such a high budget for such a not funny movie.

  • "You know any retarded war heroes?"

    Exactly

  • Best comedy EVER. Who agrees?

  • My God people are stupid! ITS A MOVIE!  Take it for what it's worth! My Lord!

  • I don't get some people and why they are so sensitive. This movie is over top exaggeration which shouldn't be taken as offensive unless you really think that describes yourself. Be my guest and wallow in your own self pitiness. But otherwise I doubt it was meant to offend people. And those overly sensitive people if you are so, don't just pity yourself and laugh at other portray of other groups because you're just a contradiction.

    But this movie is smart and funny. I love it.

  • Comment removed

  • I just have one thing to say. If your offended, don't watch the damn movie.

  • @Friendlyenemies1 Never go full retard.

  • great film

  • you know what ive found out with trying to be nice to everyone? they just take advantage of it the second they get a chance. we dont need to cater to sensitive people thats stupid. they just need to except the fact that we all have stereotypes no matter what kind of person you are and its funny. people have nothing better to do then sit around watching tv and thinking about all the things that make them sad. bullshit.
