He's making fun of desperate trendy actors
he didn't go full retarded
Because he was doing it ironically ABOUT blackface and pretentious actors in general.
you're retarded OP. Blackface is offensive when the joke is black people. Like all things, if the joke is that the character is a bad person, you can get away with whatever the fuck you want.
Dumb dimbus
It was unironically a different time.

He's a manlet. It's not as threatening when they do it, because no one takes them serious anyway.
He's a jew.
He isn't in blackface. He's playing a character who is in blackface. In the context of this movie, he was method actor who went too, too, too deep into his roles.
You don't go full nigger
no it fucking wasn't. you're unironically a dumb nigger sjw. kys
Literally no movie goer goes "Robert Downey Jr is only a jewish guy!"
Based schizo tranny
No one cares what movie goers has to say.

>captcha: click on bicycles
people were offended but desu he was just so good, the only sad thing is that he didn't get the Oscar for it
It wss ironically another time
you know there was a time before twitter SJWs, right? this movie was made back then
imagine doing this today
this is accurate. twitter was in its early stages in 2008
Because he was a dude, playing another dude, pretending to be another dude.
Dur.
he was just playing a dude
If this was made in 2019 it would potentially be the end of his career.
>kangz shit
Is he /our guy/?
I realize you're working with a room-temperature IQ but one can say "it was a different time" lamenting the difference rather than approving of how things have changed.
nope IASIP is still doing blackface memes. The joke isn't on black people. The joke is on stupid actors doing offensive or retarded nonsense for prestige roles.
Like he was smart to do it at the same time he got the Iron Man role that turned his career around, but the movie and the joke is still understood by literally everyone.
Retards were literally the only people upset about the movie when it came out. Black people thought, and still do think, that it was great.
Stop assuming that everyone is as asspained and obsessed about "political correctness" as you are. They aren't. You're just a faggot.
It. Was. A. Different. Time.
>people were offended
Absolutely no one was offended (outside clapistan that is).
You can't say the N word under any circumstances so there is no way you can blackface either.
Our perception of what is right and wrong has altered between that year to the current year.
No it wouldn't. If you made a period movie today and had a minstrel show dude in it then it'd be perfectly fine for that character to be played by Brad Pitt. Because it's not Brad Pitt blacking up to play a black guy in a period piece. At most people would complain about the necessity if the movie sucked. But RDJ's movie didn't suck so there'd be no problem.
Stop looking for ways people would be outraged, like some kind of reverse SJW faggot.
>but one can say "it was a different time" lamenting the difference rather than approving of how things have changed.
no shit "one" can do that. It's what literally every idiot that hates being adult says. It's autistic nostalgia and le wrong generation nonsense. Everyone has always "lamented the difference" between "the way things are now" (that you're a cynical adult being bombarded with political propaganad) versus "the way they used to be" (when you were a carefree faggot kid) throughout all of history.
And IQ is a meme for stupid people.
>And IQ is a meme for stupid people
Average IQ detected
You are being naive. Scarlet Johannsen got stick for playing a white cyborg in Ghost in the Shell.
no I remember that actual retards were offended
>Tropic Thunder was criticized by the disability advocacy community. The website for Simple Jack was withdrawn on August 4 amid several groups' concerns over its portrayal of mental retardation.[76] A spokesman for DreamWorks said, "We heard their concerns, and we understand that taken out of context, the site appeared to be insensitive to people with disabilities."[76] A coalition of more than 20 disability advocacy groups, including the Special Olympics and the Arc of the United States, objected to the film's repeated and excessive use of the word "retard".[71] DreamWorks offered to screen the film for the groups on August 8 to determine if it still offended them.[135][136] The screening was postponed to the same day of the premiere on August 11.[137] After representatives for the groups attended the private screening and were offended by its content, the groups picketed outside the film's premiere.[138][139] Timothy Shriver, the chairman of the Special Olympics, stated, "This population struggles too much with the basics to have to struggle against Hollywood. We're sending a message that this hate speech is no longer acceptable."[140]

In 2019 the cast of IASIP is apologizing for their past transgressions and self-flagellating by filling their writer's room with a bunch of woke retards. The most recent season was an unfunny disaster.
what about always sunny
Yeah, because people thought the cyborg would be asian since it's an anime. That's all it was based on, the actress not being the same race as what the character was perceived to be. That's nothing like RDJ playing a white dude blackening up, where the act of blackening up is continually treated as the ridiculous idea that it is.
>There are naive children in this thread that genuinely think he wouldn't get torn apart by twitter SJWs and clickbait bloggers if he did it today, no matter the context.
Top kek
>b-b-but IASIP did it!
Yeah, over 5 years ago. In /currentyear/ they'd get torn apart by it, hence why they've gone full woke and make episodes about doing a gay dance to come out to your father with absolutely zero comedic element whatsoever.
Blackface in any context is dead, get over it white man
You're comparing apples and hand grenades.
no they aren't. you're going to die a virgin.
You're right. If it's not one of your political handler sites it can't be trusted! Fuck crowdsourced knowledge! Just trust your daddies like a good little slut.
Motoko is explicitly a white looking cyborg.
It was unironically a time
>le ebin virgin may may on an anonymous polyurethane enthusiast forum
Didn't he get nominated for this?
she doesn'y look particularly white in the manga or the movie
>Arc of the United States
>an organization dedicated to preserving two of every type of retard
It's like poetry.
The flesh and blood characters look more asian
Yeah because race doesn't show up in the artstyle that much. Canonically though she looks white to the people around her.
And people didn't know that because you can't expect most Americans who are just expecting some more capeshit stories to know that. That's why all the outrage was between people who didn't know enough about the manga acting upset, and the actual old fans explaining how it's okay.
RDJ was never advertised as a black guy, it was always clear that he was playing a crazy method actor who blacked up.
>There are naive children in this thread that genuinely think he wouldn't get torn apart by twitter SJWs and clickbait bloggers if he did it today, no matter the context.
just because you're a faggot that NEEDS to feel persecuted to be able to justify the faggot shit you believe doesn't mean everyone else also is.
And just because you can now easily find random people talking shit about things doesn't mean they matter, or that they weren't there in 2008. You just weren't consuming a bunch of strawman propaganda designed to radicalize you into being an unfuckable faggot then.
That's the thing that I don't understand about you degenerate "conservatives." Is you can just ignore the people whining about stuff. You don't need to fill your life experience with random assholes that you don't like. You choose to turn your social media experience into that because that's the shit you engage with.
The only thing that's really changed is your perception, because you're being abused by bad actor agencies that exploit your berry-picking brain's need to create availability heuristics, and inability to account for scale. You can find tens of thousands of upset people bitching about something and think "everyone" is pissed, because your brain can't fathom hundreds of millions and billions.
Plus you're likely following and being microtargeted by Russian propagandists whose whole job is built around reinforcing the malignant feelings you have about your country.
tldr: you're just a stupid ape nigger cuck that's being abused by people that literally want you to kill yourself.
>reddit spacing
For a Golden Globe. The Hollywood Foreign Press is full of Europeans who think shit like that is still funny.
Plus the Golden Globes always nominate popular shit they know isn't going to win. The Hangover was nominated for multiple Golden Globes for example. They want to see more hip than the Oscars.

God what an unbearable retard, no wonder you’re sitting all alone in your dorm on Saturday.
So do you actually think all spaced out like that so you don't get overloaded with a complex thought or are you just so brainwashed you don't realize you're repeating the same patterns
This, he's not doing blackface, he's playing an insane method actor willing to go too far for a role
But that's way too advanced for today's reactionary social media, they would have been outraged at simple jack (even tho that was the point), RDJ in blackface, and Tom Cruise playing a stereotypical Jewish producer
>implying the overton window hasn't shifted massively
t. zoomer to young to remember a better time
Best Tom Cruise movie ever made.

>and Tom Cruise playing a stereotypical Jewish producer
No, they would have cheered on him portraying Weinstein as a villain.
His wife is a jew and NAACP (headed by jews) thought it was okay.
The only controversy came from the retard jokes.
I think with the whole Weinstein thing Cruise would be praised for it
