Poll of the Day > What character do you think of: (Day 41) Robert Downey Jr.

Topic List	Page List: 1
impatientperson 10/06/17 8:35:47 AM #1:	What movie comes to mind when you think of Robert Downey Jr.? His IMDB page: http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000375/ Regardless of what you think of him as an actor (I think most people would say he's a darn good one), RDJ's story is pretty incredible. Going from being an Oscar nominated actor to being arrested multiple times for drug use then coming back (with the aid of Mel Gibson, weirdly enough) to land a role that's made him incredibly wealthy. Even aside from that, he's been in a pretty good number of movies. He's such a good actor. I'll admit that I don't know much of his stuff pre-2000s. I mean I know Chaplin was his Oscar nominated role but I've never seen it. I think he's a fun Sherlock Holmes (though the movies aren't, like, super amazing). And he managed to get another Oscar nomination for his insane role in Tropic Thunder (I didn't really like the movie but I admire the joke). Then he's got other stuff like that Elton John video and whatnot. But, whether it's what he wants to be known as forever or not, he is Iron Man. Tony Stark is the perfect character for him and I absolutely love the MCU that was kinda built on his performance. Any nominations going forward would be cool. I have a big list of 'em now but if you suggest someone on there they can move up the rankings and come sooner. Also, if you have any input on how to improve the topic, let me know. Previous days (If you wanna participate): Day 32: Samuel L Jackson Day 33: Justin Timberlake Day 34: Jamie Lee Curtis Day 35: Johnny Depp Day 36: Julianne Moore Day 37: Ian Mckellen Day 38: Christopher Walken Day 39: Anthony Hopkins Day 40 (Director Day): James Cameron >Day 41: Robert Downey Jr. It is a pretty good song: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ufbexgPyeJQ --- This user is awesome!: http://boards.gamefaqs.com/gfaqs/user.php?board=804141&topic=12351915135 <cite>impatientperson posted [p:887913551] in What chara...
