I miss some of those great DVD extras.

In the movie, Robert Downey Jr's said he didn't break character until he finished do the DVD commentary. He was in character when he did the DVD commentary.

There was a special edition of Buckaroo Banzai with an onscreen commentary that pointed out that Buckaroo was carrying Einstein's brain with him when he entered dimension 8

edit = the movie was 'Tropic Thunder.'

In the movie, Robert Downey Jr's character said...

I know you're talking about Tropic Thunder, but how many other people would?

That's a great point because my first thought was Iron Man, which would also be believable. XD

I'll edit. I would have sworn I mentioned the title. Silly me

Anybody who has seen Tropic Thunder.

I guess that's the point I'm trying to make. Not giving the name of the movie means either the comment wasn't for you (because you already know it), or that it doesn't actually help you.

Funny thing.

I did a quick search of 'robert downey jr stays in character in dvd extras' and got the result instantly.

The extended DVD for 40 Year Old Virgin features all the "how I know you're gay" that didn't make the movie itself. I giggled extensively.
