"Thunder" Rolls, Throws Toddlers Off Bridges, May End My Boycott of Ben Stiller.

I rented "Before the Devil Knows You're Dead" this weekend, and *SPOILER ALERT* Marissa Tomei gets naked a lot. For some reason , the producers didn't want it distracting from the soul-crushingly depressing story, so for every Tomareola you get
you also get a naked, sweaty, Phillip Seymore Hoffman, or Ethan Hawke. This could be the same formula that the producers of "Tropic Thunder" are using. People haven't laughed at a Ben Stiller movie in 10 years, so to come in gangbusters with Robert Downey Jr playing a black guy and Nick Nolte looking like he just got out of a Laotian basement with Christopher Walken, audiences might freak out. Throw a little of the Stiller curse on it and hopefully it'll lessen the shock. Then again, Stiller isn't playing his usual put upon-freaked out-asshole character that he plays in every movie, so who knows. All I'm saying is, you throw a baby off a bridge, you got my $8.
