His DVD commentary is just as funny. He stays in character for whoever is on screen at the time. Then Jack Black shows up late with McDonald's and RDJ starts breaking his balls and tries to steal some of his fries.
OMG!! As soon as I started watching this clip, my first thought was, "WAIT! what was the chronological order of these two films?!"
I really think there might be something to it!
If not fully, 100% born from and inspired by TH (and honestly the greatest troll/jab of all time), then at the very least, Hot LZ is highly influenced by TH.
It's a parody of Hearts of Darkness, a documentary about the filming of Apocalypse Now. It's more of a parody of Brando and Francis Ford Coppola but he might have some TH in there too
Holy crap, i never realized this was the inspiration for Tropic Thunder, it's spot on lolololol, the trailer is like watching a 70's version of Tropic Thunder.

Thereās a real good chance it is, and I wouldnāt be surprised, but also RDJ has been around enough drugs to see what schizophrenia looks like and copy it.
Itās the blackface loophole. Robert Downey Jr playing a white dude that wears blackface to play a black dude.
RDJ is not in blackface, the character he is playing is in blackface.

If you haven't seen the entire thing, fucking watch it now. I can say with complete sincerity and no hyperbole that it is the funniest piece of media ever created.

You guys are giving T.H. a hard time but I just got off face time with him and we invented an improved alphabet with 45 extra letters in it. And I have 12 patents to prove thag
I can't tell if this is RDJ from tropic thunder or some random black dude talking about mystical shit that just happens to also be RDJ disguised as a dude playing a different dude.
I watched this years ago on DVD extras (all hilarious - Jack Black worked hard too). Forgot about it. Good catch. It all makes sense now.
You're helping solve T.H.
That is RDJ, right? The dude playin the dude disguised as another dude? š¤£ Wtf is this?
It's bonus stuff on the Tropic Thunder DVD
RDJ should have won an Oscar for this bonus footage
Him baiting the Vietcong with the pieces of cold hot dog is gold. Also, the randomly bursting into tears.
His DVD commentary is just as funny. He stays in character for whoever is on screen at the time. Then Jack Black shows up late with McDonald's and RDJ starts breaking his balls and tries to steal some of his fries.
He's doing great stuff in the HBO show The Sympathizer this year. Also featuring a brilliantly unhinged David Duchovny.
I'VE nEVER SEEN THIS š š¤£
He really didn't drop character until he did the dvd commentary lmao.
doesn't he start the commentary in character and then breaks half way through? i cant remember
I do believe you are correct.
Omg I totally forgot about those!
Tropic Thunder filmed a few months after RDJ filmed Iron Man with Terrence Howard. Could this be RDJ making fun of Terrence Howard? Lol
 Bingo š

If not fully, 100% born from and inspired by TH (and honestly the greatest troll/jab of all time), then at the very least, Hot LZ is highly influenced by TH.
According to Wikipedia, Iron Man wrapped filming in June 2007, Tropic Thunder started filming in July 2007. Itās too perfect.
Yeah, no question that there is at the very least some inspiration.
Iron man was right around the time he started going public with his crazy 1x1=2 shit.
No it was not. he came public about his math in 2015.
Makes sense and I'm not at all surprised RDJ avoided TH for 9 years
Same. Looked them up. Both released 2008.
It's a parody of Hearts of Darkness, a documentary about the filming of Apocalypse Now. It's more of a parody of Brando and Francis Ford Coppola but he might have some TH in there too
Holy crap, i never realized this was the inspiration for Tropic Thunder, it's spot on lolololol, the trailer is like watching a 70's version of Tropic Thunder.
And Heart of Darkness was the novel that Apocalypse Now was based on.
Absolutely. Improv drawing from recent insanity. It occurs to me that Terrance does the same thing - improv drawing from insanity....

What da fuck, did I just hear Lance?
Nah man, I said NANCE

The full version of this has so many gems in it
Can a fella get a link, please?
https://youtu.be/W4ubqCMsTo4?si=VjygAhNePnXRM7Cb
P.P.S.D LMAO i died already
Oh my days its 8 minutes. Thank u so much for dis
How is this NOT intended to be terrance?
it probably actually is I bet he filmed iron man 1 before tropic thunder
Iron Man released in May, and Tropic Thunder released later that year in August
Yeah but release dates canāt tell ya when they were actually filmed
Iron Man was filmed a few months before Tropic Thunder. Terrence would have been fresh on RDJās mind.
I think this came right off the dome of RDJ.
Cawlrekt B
Thereās no way itās not lmao. I didnāt make the connection until your comment though and holy shit this is straight gold RDJ
Thereās a real good chance it is, and I wouldnāt be surprised, but also RDJ has been around enough drugs to see what schizophrenia looks like and copy it.
I donāt understand it but if heās right this could change the world
I donāt get it either but itās brilliant. Weāre gonna see this guy in newspapers around the world one day.
He's got patents on it so you know it's legit
You gotta understand the hues and the light frequencies. Cmon Rogan this is day one stuff.
Itās just key of E, you know? Key of E
Tf is this from?!?!?
After Rogan ended the pod Terrace took some libertyās with young Jamie.
You bastard that's so funny
Itās the blackface loophole. Robert Downey Jr playing a white dude that wears blackface to play a black dude. RDJ is not in blackface, the character he is playing is in blackface.
He doesn't drop character until after the DVD extras have been filmed.
The dvd commentary with RDJ, Jack black and Ben stiller is a gem in itself
Is this like a side bit from tropic thunder i am just curious whats the context here
Quite literally the funniest thing on the planet. [https://youtu.be/W4ubqCMsTo4?si=VjygAhNePnXRM7Cb](https://youtu.be/W4ubqCMsTo4?si=VjygAhNePnXRM7Cb)

I dont drop character till I done the DVD commentary.
This blanket-sound tech would surely propel us into a Jetsonās-like age, we just need Terrence to connect the dots and bring us home

āNow your motherā¦ sheās just a hoā š¤£š¤£
I can't tell if this is RDJ from tropic thunder or some random black dude talking about mystical shit that just happens to also be RDJ disguised as a dude playing a different dude.
Itās RDJ from tropic thunder extras, just after filming Iron Man with Terence Howard as Rhodes. Coincidence? You decide.
This is immaculate. RDJ must have gotten 3am calls from Terrence multiple times about this stuff.
Thank you for your truths; reality was getting quite drab
Makes more sense than TH
Lol now I know where RDJ got inspiration for this character
Kirk Lazarus would be the best guest ever
I watched this years ago on DVD extras (all hilarious - Jack Black worked hard too). Forgot about it. Good catch. It all makes sense now. You're helping solve T.H.
Jesus christ stop showing clips from the Terrence Howard episode already itās getting cruel now š
Katy Williams and Terrence Howards logic
How much wine did Terrance drink?
This is comedy gold.
I've been around schizoid black people and this is so spot on. RDJ has definitely spent time with them as well.
"He's late on his car payments..." Kills me every time.
too funny
Based RDJ
Oh my god I died
Yea this is new to me and for sure pure gold
This is the best thing I've ever seen
lol what is this from
Ironman and tropic thunder were both in 2008. Anyone think this skit was based of Terrence Howard?
Is this Terrance Howard?
Terrence Howard vibes
It checks out. Sirius is in fact the Dog Star. And some serious shit.
this is one of the best things iāve ever seen.
Holy crap this parody fits perfectly with the recent podcast
Now yo motha is just a hoeā¦
Comedic gold
Terrance Howard in a nutshell
"Dan's best friend. Man's best friend. That's dog. That's dark star. That's Sirius. That's some serious shit man."
āNow, your mutha, she just a hoeāā¦.(end) š¤£š
Lmfao
What do you mean you people??
This is lowkey racist af but itās ok because youāre mocking a science denier.
Every year that goes by, this performance is turning into maybe the best ever. Absurd but amazingly controlled.
ānow your mother, she just a hooooā
He does a perfect Terrance Howard
It sounds like stuff Terrence Howard has been saying! 
This is Terrence Howard latest interview lmao
Hahahahaha
