Ben Stiller poked fun at Joaquin Phoenix at Sunday’s Academy Awards.

Presenting Best Cinematography alongside Natalie Portman, Stiller walked on stage with a bushy beard and sunglasses and chomped on gum.

Playing along with his joke, Portman then said, “This is ridiculous,” and chastised Stiller for chewing gum at the Oscars. Read the full story at USmagazine.com

Tropic Thunder Trailer Feat. Ben Stiller, Jack Black, Robert Downey Jr.

The following trailer was emailed to me by a site visitor, Kelly ?… The movie trailer for “Tropic Thunder” is available from Break.com.

The Tropic Thunder trailer is quite hilarious and features Jack Black, Ben Stiller (& his wife), and Iron-Man himself, Robert Downey Jr.

The movie is basically a farce on typical war movies like Rambo, but has a very comical twist. The film is actually about the filming of a war movie – starring of course, the unlikely trio of goofballs and bad actors (in the movie).

While filming the scenes, the rag-tag bunch actually gets involved in a real battle w/ the locals and the laughters ensue.

What you can expect… (well, it is Rated “R”)
– Jack Black is loud & has a filthy mouth
– Robert Downey Jr. plays an Australian guy who gets surgery to be a black guy.
– Ben Stiller is a goofball actor (think Zoolander).

Anyway, give it a look above. Let us know what you think.
