The press tour for the upcoming sequel Avengers: Age of Ultron is grabbing a lot of attention ahead of the film’s North American release, just not the good kind of attention.

The latest public relations flub came Friday in the form of what some have deemed a racist statement made by leading man Robert Downey Jr.

After storming out of an interview earlier this week with Britain’s Channel 4 News, the legendary actor sat down to again discuss the film, where he made a remark about Oscar-winning Birdman director Alejandro Gonzalez Iñárritu.

The Mexican director has been critical of superhero films in the past, even telling Deadline last October he considers them “cultural genocide.”

“The way they apply violence to it, it’s absolutely right-wing,” he told the entertainment industry news outlet. “If you observe the mentality of most of those films, it’s really about people who are rich, who have power, who will do the good, who will kill the bad. Philosophically, I just don’t like them.”

A liberal attack plan:
1. Shout “racist” at conservative opponents.
2. Count on conservatives to skitter, apologize, and attack each other in response.
3. Pray that a conservative doesn’t respond with “And what of it?,” cutting off your plan at the knees.

I agree.

When I searched for that pic, I received some images of Downey when he was young. I think he looks much better now...more rugged.

[CatherineofAragon]

You’re so welcome. :)

[Excellence]

That was cute.

[Jane Long]

Yes ;-)

[Ol' Dan Tucker]

You're so right! We ladies have eyes, too...

Speaking as a man, Downey is a man I'd enjoy sitting down with to have a beer and just talk about things.

[combat_boots]

He walked out of an interview with a liberal. He must be blacklisted.

[combat_boots]

No. He became a conservative in prison and said that being in prison makes everyone conservative.

"Speaking as a man, Downey is a man I'd enjoy sitting down with to have a beer and just talk about things."

I like that in a man, myself---plain and down to earth.

[Kickass Conservative]

That was Pretty Cool. Kudos to “Robert”.

The little Kid is one sharp Cookie too.

The mental gymnastics these people do are amazing. From this, to Gwynyth Paltrow’s “conscious uncoupling,” aka divorce. Ugh.

[Harmless Teddy Bear]

He’s getting better as he gets older, which is always a sign of the right sort of men.

Yep.

[4yearlurker]

Downey pulled himself out of drug Hell and reinvented himself. You can't take that away from him. I'm a guy who goes to the movies about once a year and I can sit through a movie staring Downey. He is watchable. Also my 30 year old daughter thinks Downey is the most handsome man in movies. :^)

[Protect the Bill of Rights]

Yep

1970s, when the socialists/dems started the practice of (mis)labeling for their final end game of Divide & Conquer. From the looks of things occurring today, too many idiots fell for it.

I am rather glad I take high doses of vitamin D, the Idahoan State vitamin, or one could hear a sound of sizzling bacon as the sun hits my *ancestral* Irish/Celtic skin as I rebuild and expand and our food gardens...laughing...

America has become a place where entertainers and athletes are mistaken for people of consequence.
