I would see Satan's Alley for RDJ, but the "preview" did not make it look like a good movie by any stretch of the imagination. Tropic Thunder is pretty good, and funny, and the blackface thing isn't even remotely offensive, IMO. The joke isn't on African Americans, it's on Kirk Lazerus, and the lengths he will go to stay in character, even when he knows they aren't making a movie anymore.
