Tropic Thunder (6/10) Movie CLIP - What Do You Mean, You People? (2008) HD

CLIP DESCRIPTION:
While lost in the jungle, Kirk (Robert Downey Jr.) and Alpa (Brandon T. Jackson) conflict with Tugg (Ben Stiller) and discuss racial issues.

FILM DESCRIPTION:
Ben Stiller's satirical look at Hollywood, Tropic Thunder concerns the production of an epic Vietnam War film that quickly derails thanks to the giant egos of everyone involved in the production. Stiller stars as Tugg Speedman, an action hero trying to segue out of that genre. Jack Black plays Jeff Portnoy, a drug-addicted fat comic also attempting to change his image by taking on such a serious film. They star alongside Kirk Lazarus (Robert Downey Jr.), one of the world's most awarded actors, and a man who insists on immersing himself totally in a role. In this case, that means Lazarus has had his skin dyed in order to portray an African-American soldier. After their outrageous behavior lands the film's director, Damien Cockburn (Steve Coogan), in very hot water with producer Les Grossman (Tom Cruise), Cockburn takes the advice of grizzled Vietnam vet Four Leaf Tayback (Nick Nolte); in order to gain control of his performers, Cockburn drops the actors off in the jungle, planning to film the movie guerrilla-style with hidden cameras. When the group stumbles upon a heroin production camp, the actors are unaware that they are in very real danger.

Gets me every time.

[rastaewabeach]

Robert thought the real black dude was backing him up lol that killed me.

[wolfzeru]

He is so into the role that he even gets offended by racial slams toward black people. This movie is truly the perfect satire of method acting

[bigding]

Denzel Washington and Robert Downey Jr. are my two favorite African American actors

[ZalRB]

"You wouldn't say Chineses." Gets me every time.

[AstaIsAMonster]

0:26-0:49 *“Tell him, McClusky! Tell him what time it is!”* Always gets me.😂

[jameretief]

He doesn’t get out of character until after the dvd commentary.

[SuperChunk]

Damn the way Robert Downey Jr gets angry is so genuine and hilarious

[aaronmercier]

Let’s be real this might be one of the best movies to come out of the 2000s

[lunadabaybrandon]

This movie would not be possible today.

[JaxBlade]

LMFAO I cant get over how Perfect RDJ plays a black man XD

[bigsassyster]

One of my favorite lines from a movie.

"WHAT do you mean YOU PEOPLE?"
"What do YOU mean you people?"


🤣

[jermainewashington]

The best part is when he completely ignores the other dude when he said, "What do YOU mean, you people?" 😂

[justinoconnell]

i swear Robert Downey Jr coulda gotten an Academy Award for this role.

[TrulyMademoizelle]

As a black person, I can say that RDJ playing a man playing a black man is hilarious. He was funny to me.

[anggatriardian]

The second "What do you mean you people" really gets me 🤣🤣

[TheIcemanthomas]

TELLEM MCKLUSKY, TELLEM WHAT TIME IT IS!!!

[SpoilerForcePodcast]

"you wouldn't say chineses."

Gets me every time.

[docsspellingcontest]

“Look at them beady, white devil eyes.”
😂😂

[thetaytheist]

Probably one of Robert's best roles. He really immersed himself. The voice, his motions and mannerisms.
Most of his other roles are just Robert being Robert with the manic level adjusted based on the character. A super hero, a detective, a doctor.. It's just Robert. When I see him on screen I say "That's RDJ". But when I see this role, I say "That's Sgt. Lincoln Osiris."

Just watching RDJ enough in this, makes me forget it's him under the make up.
