Am I the only one that thought Tropic Thunder was terribly horrible? It was so incredibly stupid. There was maybe one or 2 funny scenes in the entire thing. Other than those parts I thought it was so bad. I dont understand how anybody can find it funny. The whole Simple Jack thing was not funny at all, Tom Cruise was not funny, the whole little kid running the Asian refugee camp wasnt funny, everything was just "stupid". It was like idiot humor. Only scenes I found funny was when Matthew Mchaunaghy (however the hell you spell it) was getting all worked up over the TiVo.

It seems like everybody else thinks its hillarious though...and I dont get it. Am I the only one? :?

I don't see how it could lose - it combines war movie with comedy, surely making it a fantastic 4-beers and pizza Man Movie.

I'm guessing the movie get's it's name from tropic lightning. The U.S Amry's 25th army/division. Except it's thunder instead of lightning.

Pineapple Express in my opinion was just a movie where the director said, here act like your high for 2 hours, yay comedic gold!!!

I didn't laugh hard at all in that movie, probably cause jokes about getting high get old after 5 minutes

I enjoyed it and thought many parts were hilarious.

Of course I can't repeat those parts or I'd get banned... especially Tom Cruise's parts.

You mean the the parts where Tom Cruise was screaming about shoving dicks and balls into certain places? How is that funny? Its like talking to a 13 year old on xbox live...and his dancing wasnt funny, it was dumb...I just didnt get this movie...

I guess not everyone has a sophisticated sense of humor such as yourself.

Am I the only one that thought Tropic Thunder was terribly horrible? It was so incredibly stupid. There was maybe one or 2 funny scenes in the entire thing. Other than those parts I thought it was so bad. I dont understand how anybody can find it funny. The whole Simple Jack thing was not funny at all, Tom Cruise was not funny, the whole little kid running the Asian refugee camp wasnt funny, everything was just "stupid". It was like idiot humor. Only scenes I found funny was when Matthew Mchaunaghy (however the hell you spell it) was getting all worked up over the TiVo.

It seems like everybody else thinks its hillarious though...and I dont get it. Am I the only one? :?

yes Thank You! I thought the same Pineapple Express is much more worthwhile.

im finding it hard to believe that you cant come to the conclusion that other people have there own opinions ;) to you, bad, to me, great, a perfect parody adn comedy, dumb? yes at time, but also really smart, like I said, if you think its only "dumb" humor, then you dont get where it was coming from.

I thought it was pretty good. Not exactly idiot humor, but yeah there's a lot of stupid jokes in it. But it does have a lot of good jokes spoofing action movies and Hollywood in general, which I really enjoyed.

Idiot humor can be good humor . . .Elraptor

And some of the humor was actually very high brow-the parodizing of the acting community in general was amazing (I especially loved the line about insecurity when that one guy was sobbing and asking "WHO AM I!?!?!"), as was the commentary on "based on a true story" things brought about by the [spoiler] fact that the author of the book was a trash man.

I have no idea what u r talking about. This is easily one of the best movies this year so far. I loved it all. I was laughing constantly.

There hasnt been a comedy where I was continually laughing like this in a long time.

So many funny parts that I'm gonna be refrencing from now on.

It was alright. I thought it got pretty over the top by the end but it was still pretty good.

I admit though the beginning of Tropic Thunder was amazing. I don't remember laughing that hard in a long time.

Yeah, Pineapple Express was hilarious to me. A lot of people were saying it was just okay, and one of those movies where the jokes were "haha, that was funny.... only not really.".... but I ended up loving it :lol:

I think it depends on who you're with and what mood you're in on how funny a movie can be.
