Tropic Thunder...the return of blackface?
I read a blog the other day where someone was ranting about hollywood returning to blackface. Apparently they were upset about a movie being made by Ben Stiller, in which Robert Downey Jr. plays the role of a black man with make-up on.
I didn't know what to think, I know that Ben Stiller usually pokes fun of things, so I was sure there was more to it than what the person had seen or heard. I had the chance to see some of the previews over the weekend, and the whole thing makes a bit more since to me now...I grabbed a copy of the trailer so you can see for yourself...what do you think?
