Re: Tony Stark

Er, RDJ isn't a conservative. He leans Republican on some things, but he can't really be described as a conservative. Though even if he was, that really doesn't mean jack shit.

IA with the rest of this comment, though.

It says here:

That RDJ is a conservative Republican.

There's also his response on reddit's recent AMA:

Would you be willing to elaborate on how going to prison made you lean conservative?
In 2009 Downey conveyed his politically rightward drift to N.Y. Times reporter David Carr. “I have a really interesting political point of view, and it’s not always something I say too loud at dinner tables here, but you can’t go from a $2,000-a-night suite at La Mirage to a penitentiary and really understand it and come out a liberal. You can’t. I wouldn’t wish that experience on anyone else, but it was very, very, very educational for me and has informed my proclivities and politics ever since.”
Also the marketing for The Judge is very strange. A couple of months ago, it looked like a serious drama and now more like a legal comedy.
Thanks.

I'll answer the second question first.
Over the course of lead-up to releasing The Judge, the audiences were telling us that yes, the evocative, dramatic aspects of the film were primarily what was holding their attention, however as our test scores were going higher and higher, much of that was due to the giddy dispersion of moments of laughter and release, situations and characters who behaved in a funny manner. And so Team Downey and the studio decided it was natural to lean into that. At its core, you could call it a drama. It's a surprisingly humorous movie. In other words, it's not a bleak nihilistic downer. It's quite uplifting.
Over the last 10 years, the world has changed, and I'm no exception. What I love about America is that your political views are not fixed by nature. It's natural that I would see the downside of liberalism while housed in an institution, as it's not an uncommon occurrence for people to take advantage of a system that caters to its psychological needs. To be pointed, humanity (myself included) is not above manipulating a democratic situation to suit its own selfish short-term goals. I hope that offers an explanation.

And this is what he said about Tony: "The first Iron Man was essentially wrapping the character around a cooler version of "me.""

So I think it IS a valid point.
