SWAG: Tropic Thunder Bobblehead Set

I returned home from Comic Con to a package in my mail from Dreamworks/Paramount containing a set of mini bobbleheads based on the characters in  Tropic Thunder. Click on the photos to enlarge.

At Comic Con, I actually got a chance tp see a screening of Tropic Thunder, and it was hilarious. I was one of those people who wasn’t completely aboard this film, having been burnt from Ben Stiller countless times over the past few years. The Red band trailer got me very excited, but some of the other marketing made me wonder if all the funny bits were contained in the restricted clip. Not the case at all. The film is a great popcorn movie that everyone is going to love. The way the characters are introduced at the beginning of the film is genius, and Tom Cruise gives a career saving performance that EVERYONE will be talking about.

    I'm starting my own film blog so I can get shit like this sent to my PO Box. Where do you even put your swag? Do you actually have it on display, or does it go in some warehouse to never be seen again?

    WHAT. I saw this movie on Sunday and it was awful. The entire theater was silent. It was like there were parts you knew you were SUPPOSED to laugh at...but then no one did. Awkward.

    And I don't know...all Tom Cruise does is scream the word Fuck a lot. It's not as funny as they want it to be.

    Wow, maybe there should be a spoiler alert attached to this if you guys are going to throw out stuff about a movie that some of us haven't seen. Didn't even know Cruise was in this movie...

    And I like the fact that they had to shrink Black's bobble head so that it would fit in with the rest of the set, lol.

    You really haven't heard about the Tom Cruise cameo? Earlier they were hyping that about as much as RDJ being black.

    @Floppy

    You know, now that you mention it, I think I remember something about that through the haze of Pineapple Express I was hashing at the time...my apologies to all. I will now refrain from posting while baked :P

    Actually, my first post was more as a caution for people who might let slip more about the movie in future posts ;)

    This does look to be a really funny movie. I also have been burnt with previous Ben Stiller and Jack Black movies when they are main star. However this looks completely different. I guess I was getting tired seeing Stiller playing the same role over and over again. Kind of like Sandler. Now when Stiller plays off the wall characters is when he's at his best. Zoolander, Dodgeball and Anchorman (cameo) come to mind. It looks that RDJ will steal the show.
