As a Black man that saw this when it came out, i was not offended by the Black Face in the least bit. However, of course I don’t speak for all of us. But for me, it came down to this: The usage of Black Face was acknowledged and served to be an example/spoof, of the ridiculousness of Hollywood actors taking these roles, and that point was reiterated by the character of Simple Jack. The whole movie was a spoof on the “out of touchness”, and cruelty of the industry. I’ve worked in the film/tv biz for over 20 years, so i found this movie hilarious on ALL levels. 😎

Yes, and people don't even understand what "blackface" is: blackface is a *_mocking_* portrayal of a *_stereotype_* . It means purposefully portraying a *_general_* stereotype, relegating everyone of that race into that characterization. If someone plays a certain specific *_character_* or a certain real *_person_* then that's not blackface, and that's not wrong. But try to tell that to the zero-IQ uneducated crowds...

It was Blackface, but he was making fun of those types of actors. At the time of release, a few "cherished" actors were outed for doing blackface and they justified it by saying they were getting deep into their character's psyche.

Ever since then, at least once a year every year, someone starts a social media campaign to get him canceled. It's going to start up again in April when The Sympathizer comes out. His intentions were pure, it was done brilliantly, he's uncancellable. One of the GOATs!

IIRC, it was the making fun of mental illness that stirred up controversy. They just straight up turned it into a joke. Also yeah, you need to definitely watch Zoolander. Another classic IMHO. :D

Of the various serious, classic Vietnam movies, if you were to pick one, I'd say pick "Platoon." As for Ben Stiller movies, the following are all excellent: "Zoolander," "There's Something About Mary," "Meet the Parents," and "Dodgeball." The grizzled "Vietnam vet" in this movie is Nick Nolte, a relatively well-known actor, but I'd be surprised if you'd seen anything of his.

RDJ actually didn't get any backlash until over a decade later, when people started to get all butthurt over it. Not to get too political or anything, but I'm half Black myself. I never had a problem with his character, neither did any of my family or friends. We all found his character funny, because the joke IS ON Lazurus and not mocking Black people. He overacts and can't drop character; which is making fun of method actors who get way too obsessive about their roles. It's also making fun of actors who've historically taken roles from ethnic people. When it's all said and done, his lines were hilariously executed. Unfortunately his performance has been somewhat sullied by overly sensitive people. Glad you two enjoyed the movie! Great reaction

lol there was no major backlash against RDJ. There were a few people that walked out of the movie theaters. I remember a few people walked out of my theater. Not necessarily black people. White people also. But that was not huge. Most people enjoyed and laughed at the movie and the character and there was an Oscar nomination.

It's funny, the beginning "trailers" are really the way they introduce the characters, who they are, and where they are "coming from"

The Fatties preview was based off of Eddie Murphy's movie The Nutty Professor, where he plays his entire family, and during dinner, a couple of the family start farting. All of this was done while wearing fat suits and being outrageous characters. Here's the scene ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-koTVfm31QUY.html

Wait, y'all haven't seen Zoolander and Dodgeball yet?! You're in for the treat of your lives watching those movies! (Tropic Thunder is my favorite but both of those other two are right up there in the top 10 films of all time!)

If you’re gonna stick to this dancing image of Tom Cruise, you have to watch Risky business asap.. Platoon was another movie parodied here, although a serious war film and must see ❤

Parody and satire with a pinch of burlesque and slapstick- epic comedy.

Another great one. I'd personally put it alongside Anchorman and Zoolander.

I think RDJ never got any criticisms for the whole black face thing, because it was so clearly not meant to mock black people, but instead just the opposite, to make fun of these pretentious big name actors who "transform" into their characters and make the news how deep they go for the roles.

This movie could never be made now. Hollywood has lost whatever self awareness it used to have, which wasn't much to begin with. Ben Stiller has a fine satirical sense. You should watch Zoolander which is a hilarious send up of the fashion industry and the whole concept of the 'celeb'.

Oh, almost forgot, the actor that played the real Four Leaf is Nick Nolte probably best known for the comedy films of the 80s with Eddie Murphy "48 Hours".😉

Another take is that the party that is the butt of the joke will be the party to be offended by the joke. With blazing saddles, racism and racist people were the butt of the joke. Therefore, it was that group that were offended the most. The black people back then were not the offended ones,, but the white audiences were very offended.
