Get Infected with a ‘Tropic Thunder’ Viral Video

Tropic Thunder, starring Ben Stiller, Kung Fu Panda and Iron Man

Right now, Paramount Studios is rocking the box office. And if indicators are right, the awesomeness will continue when Kung Fu Panda rocks the big screen for major bucks.

To rub the salt in the wounds of all the other studios, Paramount released this viral video to help promote the August release of Tropic Thunder. What’s it about? Well, it’s about making a viral video to promote Tropic Thunder. Go figure.

Originally a spot to also promote the MTV Movie Awards (which happened this past weekend), it goes down so much easier than Seth Rogen and James Franco smoking fake weed on stage.

Take a gander at the video below for a few laughs as Ben Stiller, Jack Black and Robert Downey Jr. scuffle. And the two best things about this… 1) Jack Black doesn’t scat at all, and 2) they don’t even mention The Love Guru.

Oh, and someone gets kicked in the nuts:
