Watch Some 'Tropic Thunder' Clips Before It Opens Tomorrow

DateTuesday, August 12, 2008 at 2:53PM
For the second straight week, the big new release will tiptoe around the Olympics, opening on Wednesday instead of Friday. So that means Tropic Thunder, the suddenly-controversial war movie comedy with Ben Stiller, Jack Black, and Robert Downey Jr., opens tomorrow (and we'll have a review for you, to boot.)

To prepare you for what is at worst the second-funniest movie of the summer, here are a few clips from Trailer Addict and Movie Web, featuring all of the principals. They play actors from different parts of the Hollywood spectrum: Stiller is the action hero, Black is the flatulent comedian, and Downey is the award-winning master thespian. That they would all come together under these circumstances, in the most expensive war movie ever made, is something of a surprise. That the problem immediately and irreversibly goes haywire is not.

I'm already casting my 2008 MVP vote for Robert Downey, by the way.
