Just saw Iron Man 3.
I missed Less Than Zero.
When did he "blow up"?
What are his essentials?

I???ve come to really appreciate the Downey recently. Both his Sherlock Holmes films are great imo, and I???m looking forward to the third instalment. Tropic Thunder... a white guy blacked-up talking about never going full-retard.
chaplin
short cuts
natural born killers
& kiss kiss bang bang was good and the shift from vulnerable to hyper confident.
Oh shit....he was in that. I havent seen this is a long minute.
You'd make a good cop.
So dreadful, this movie. I mean, they actually downsized her boobs. 't.f. kind of teenagers are they?
Yes, reverse boob-dimensionality is the most unbelievable element of this film.
Essentials IMO are:
2008 Tropic Thunder
2007 Zodiac
2006 A Scanner Darkly
1992 Chaplin
1987 Less Than Zero
1986 Back to School
2005 Kiss Kiss Bang Bang
Bonus beats are IMO:
2005 Good Night, and Good Luck.
2003 Gothika
1999 Bowfinger
1990 Air America
1988 Johnny Be Good
The recent Sherlock Holmes jernts.
The recent superhero shit.
Is he rockin the talkin fast steez in those films?
"I'm The Real Iron Man You Just Robert Downey
A Crack Head In Black Face Fresh Out The County" - Ice Cube.
I have never understood the love this guy gets. He has the screen presence of a saltine imo and less range.
I hear you. He's a good actor, but he's no Mark Wahlberg.
hahaha.
I'm missing the joke...other than the obvious?
yes kinda.
those are the only halfway decent guy richie joints IMO.
The Sherlock films look amazing. His Holmes is Downey Jnr with a reasonably good attempt at an English accent I guess, and the editing of fight scenes (!) is slick, but it's not a traditional take on the sleuth.
The joke is that I would seriously compare the mildly talented Downey to the greatest thespian in the history of recorded media.
My thoughts exactly...
There's also this whatever you want to call it:
But for the record, I do not endorse the film.
A mess?
I like the idea from the waist up, perhaps a less shiny shirt though.
The socks and boots are fine - though the matching greens is a little too much.
He needs to put a pair of pants on, non-gimmick pants.
embarrassing movie, right? will it be subject to some sort of revision/reassessment -- ever? or will it remain unforgivably bad forever?
natural born killers.
if that's him playing himself then im still interested.
Dude, nobody's watched that since they last listened to a full Boogiemonsters album.
that movie is garbage.
and robert downey jr is equally enjoyable.
btw. saying "only able to play himself" is playing one's self.
