<p><em>&#8220;He&#8217;s 8 years old and smells like Robert Downey Jr&#8221;</em></p>
<p>That&#8217;s right, as far as I can recall Robert Downey Jr is a washed up drunken hack.  Taking a quick look at his career on imdb.com I notice that he got off to a great start in the 80&#8242;s and slowly was becoming an unstoppable force, and just when his stardom was on a major rise, it was promptly was kicked in the junk and fell to the floor like a moldy bag of tangerines.</p>
<p>Of course now it seems that he is on the rise again.  With the latest success of Iron Man and Tropic Thunder and the upcoming heart-wrenching , make you cry and feel uplifted film The Soloist is Robert Downey Jr. on a comeback?</p>
<p>I seriously hope not.</p>
<p>When I think of comebacks I am always brought back to 1994 when John Travolta played Vincent Vega in Pulp Fiction.  That was a deserved comeback.  Johnny T is a respectable hardworking actor.  Travolta deserved a comeback, Downey did not.</p>
<p>Even though I have a soft spot for the 1989 film &#8220;Chances Are,&#8221; I firmly believe that if Robert Downey Jr continues his journey to the top, or even one day gets an Oscar, this will signal the end of days.</p>
<p>Downey is a drunken junkie.  Not a great actor.</p>
<p>Why should we take the time to praise our junkies?  Maybe it&#8217;s time that I go to the apartment below mine and congratulate the junkie that lives there on creating successful meth lab.  Maybe I should walk up to him and say: &#8220;Wow, I hear people banging on your window looking for drugs all night.  Your more successful than a 7-11, keep up the good work!&#8221;</p>
<p>Robert Downey Jr is just like the guy who lives below me.  A junkie.  Let&#8217;s start treating him like a junkie.  Don&#8217;t let him make a comeback.</p>
<p>Do your part and don&#8217;t go see any Robert Downey Jr movies, don&#8217;t rent any of his old movies, and if he ever wins an Oscar, throw a huge fit ( I know I will).  Please help spread the news about the plague that is Robert Downey Jr and Stumble or Digg this post.</p>
<p>Conversation point:  Do you agree that Downey is a piece of composted watermelon rinds, or has he done anything good for this world.  Lets hear what the Downey lovers have to say&#8230;</p>
