Tropic Thunder's "star's" site is up and running, with hilarious results. It's exactly what you'd expect from a Ben Stiller character…
The website for the star of the movie within a movie, Tropic Thunder, is up and running. The site, www.tuggspeedman.com, is home to the biography, filmography, and favorite charity of the actor Tugg Speedman (played by Ben Stiller). You'll have to read it for yourself, but it looks like the humor is right on track with Stiller's quirky sense. I personally love his favorite charity page...
As for the movie itself, I've got mixed emotions about it. I can't tell whether this is going to be really funny or really bad yet. And the fact that Robert Downey Jr. is playing a white man playing a black man will either be really, really hilarious...or really, REALLY disturbing. I'm praying for the former. I guess we'll see how it plays out. After all, they did do the same thing with White Chicks, and nobody got upset. Let's just hope this is funnier...

A moral flop as much as a cinematic one, and sad reflection on where our culture of humor is going. Embarrassing.
