    This is hands down one of the funniest films ever made. It just works on so many levels. When I saw this in theater, I've never heard the audience laugh so hard in any comedy before or since.

      Sounds like a real person who wants to stick out from all the others and be "special". There is another narrator who ends his sentences with an upward inflection, so every line sounds like a stupid question? And he has an Irish accent? It is also tiresome to listen to? Drove me crazy? Never going back to those channels?

    I recently watched this film again. I have seen it many times and I think it is one of the best comedies to come from the late 00's. Also this movie is prime example of why I keep my physical media. I own the two disc DVD set and the Blu Ray and the extras on this movie are definitely worth it.

    Just a little advice: get better control of your voice inflections. You are inflecting to a lower register when you should be going to a higher register. You don’t need to have that many dips in your inflection. It’s almost like you are trying to hard with the voice. The voice would work if you just fix the tonal problems. Had to stop the video :58 seconds in..

    Key insights
    🎬 Tropic Thunder is arguably the greatest satire of Hollywood ever made, with its transformation of actors into unrecognizable characters.
    🌧 Filming Tropic Thunder on Kauai was far from an island paradise, with constant rain, sickness, and fear of contracting the leptospirosis virus.
    🎬 Tom Cruise's character Les Grossman was all thanks to him, from the dancing to the prosthetic Neanderthal hands, and even the flaming dragon face.
    🐃 Bertha, the water buffalo on set, was pregnant the entire time and flung Jack Black off her back like a Bronco.
    🎬 The line "You serious you don't know everybody knows he never goes full Jeff poroy" was totally improvised by Jack Black.
    🎬 The controversy surrounding Tropic Thunder's use of blackface doesn't seem to be shared by 99% of people, challenging the classification of it as a controversy.
    🤔 Tropic Thunder was just straight-up funny obviously a huge factor in determining whether something is offensive or not.
    🤯 The disaster on set included Sandusky's trauma from boot camp, Al Pacino mistaking the documentary crew for MTV, and Speedman refusing to come out of his trailer.
