Yea, yea ... so Iron Man is killing it. $342MM(!!!) in 2 weeks, but Robert's most memorable role to me will always be in the 1999 indie flick "Black & White" when him and Mike Tyson (yes, that Mike Tyson) share a rather quiet intimate moment together at Raekwon & Cappadonnas (when's the last time you heard that name) house party. :lol:

Keep in mind, Mike even said the role was completely improvised and had no fucking idea what Robert was going to do and just reacted instictually.

The pick up artist
Less than Zero...
but Tony Stark is gonna be the shit that makes him an international star.

i remember reading somewhere that that slap was real and much of that scene was improvised

It was. Mike and Robert both confirmed it.

The director gave Robert and Mike general instruction about the scene and to improvise, but told Robert NOT tell Mike what he was going to do.

And he may well have had a childhood cameo in his father's cult classic anti-establishment film from 1969 ...

I think that his most memorable performance was easily in Chaplin. That's the one for which he was nominated for an Oscar. And, it's the one that film critics and interviewers still bring up most often.

However, my personal favorites are...

  1. One Night Stand (w/ Wesley--I'm a better dramatic actor than an action star--Snipes)
  2. A Scanner Darkly
  3. Natural Born Killers
  4. Less Than Zero (basically playing himself)
  5. The Singing Detective
  6. Kiss Kiss Bang Bang
  7. Fur: An Imaginary Portrait of Diane Arbus

Method Man ruined Black & White for me. That nigga is too much of a ham, and is constantly chewing the scenery. He should take some lessons in how to chill the fuck out when a camera is on him from his boy Ghostface Killah.
 
"I don't know nothing about this white fag shit. You white guys do this shit I'm from a different culture."

"Please. Go head with that strange individual"

:lol:
 
he did his thing in Less Than Zero... Iron Man is his comeback movie


Yall remember him in that movie "Back to School"...:lol::lol::lol:..he as funny as hell in that movie




peace

Yeah but he fixed all of that by the 4th season of the Wire.

He was good in those last two seasons...
 
Co-sign on Less than Zero, but dude played the fuck outta Chaplin.

BTW, Black and White is one of the all-time worst movies.:smh:
 
Robert Downey's Most Memorable Role?

As a drunken prisoner

As a white dude playing a Black dude.

Too bad Howard Rollins didn't get the chances/treatment this "great" white dude is getting....maybe he'd still be alive.

Rollins was a closet CROSS DRESSING, alcoholic, drug abusing fag who basically offed himself by having unprotected sex with men and contracted HIV/AIDs.

So what does Downey have to do with him being alive?

He hasn't really been away. If anything, he "came back" with Kiss Kiss Bang Bang (and the great Zodiac). Iron Man is just his big "commercial" movie. Kinda like having a popular (and easy) hit single after being a great (and serious) album artist for most of your career.

I don't recall saying anything about Robert Downey being responsible for Rollins death homie.

I'm just pointing out the irony of how people like you feel about Downey and Rollins.

You proved my point.

The dude has been arrested for driving drunk and possessing of cocaine (a few times), heroin, methamphetamines, Valium, crack and having a Magnum revolver.

Then he was arrested after wandering into a neighbor's Malibu, California, home, where he was found unconscious. (A Black actor would have been killed if he had done this)

The irony

Hey I hope the dope addict stays sober.
I hope he takes it one day at a time.
But honestly I give a fuck one way or the other.
Believe that shit.
