A few days ago we showed you a still from the upcoming Ben Stiller comedy Tropic Thunder. Today, we bring you the first teaser. I thought the movie sounded interesting, but part of me was expecting a complete and total disaster. The film follows the exploits of a handful of actors creating a Vietnam movie. When the director tires of their antics, he leaves them behind in the jungle to fend for themselves. In the words of Martin Lawrence, Shit just got real.
The trailer, which absurdly requires age verification, has laid some of my fears to rest. It looks really funny to me. We get a lot of explosions and screaming, tons of bullets fired, and the characters all look hilarious. Obviously black Robert Downey Jr. looks funny, but so does blond Jack Black, and Ben Stiller in rage mode is always good for a laugh.
Tropic Thunder will blow shit up in a theater near you on 8.15.08.
