Robert Downey Jr. in Tropic Thunder

I have been an avid fan of Downey Jr. Since Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang.
He is the #1 reason to watch Tropic Thunder. He is also the #1 reason to watch the commentary.
During the movie his character Lincoln Osiris says, "Man, I don't drop character 'til I done a DVD commentary."
True to the role, he stays in character, and has just as many awesome lines as he does in the film itself.
Definitely THE best commentary I have seen to date. Anchorman's is good, others are informative, but this is, by far, the most entertaining one I've found.
If you like the movie, the commentary is a must watch.

Here are some good Osiris quotes-
"Daggomit, Blamtucky, I ain't reprogramming a VCR!"

"They found me in an alley in Burbank trying to reenter the Earth's atmospere in an old refrigerator box."

And the Dude-off-
Osiris-
"I know who I am!
I'm a dude playing a dude disquised as another dude. You a dude that don't know what dude he is!"
Speedman-
"Or are you a dude who has no idea what dude he is...
And claims to know what dude he is by playing other dudes?"

Speedman(a few seconds later)
"The dudes are emerging."
