I thought they're both bad
That doesn't preclude one from being better than the other.
I don't know anon, BR2049 is pretty good.
The originals villain makes it better. 2049 drags too
Maverick is worse than Top Gun, but they're both bad films.
2049 is worse than Blade Runner, but they're both bad films.
Oh yeah?
I'm trans btw, not sure if that's of any importance
And moronic apparently
how are they bad
>Top Gun
is bad in particular because it takes an otherwise simple story with one plot device and stretches its length to almost two hours, dedicating almost none of it to characterization beyond basic stereotyping. Because of this lack of screenwriting, a lot of scenes end up being filler with no real purpose. The good would be most of the action sequences and despite the blank slate characters, the cast definitely has charisma enough to go around.
All in all I think Top Gun was fairly rated when it was released; mediocre. A fun movie that could have elevated itself with the slightest of effort.
>Maverick
is bad because it's effectively the same goddamn movie with a few changes because of the period shift. There are no new plot elements added and it recycles the same stereotypes but never actually adds anything to them because nothing happens in the fricking film. The good? The sound mixing is fantastic and was really great to experience in the theater.
>Blade Runner
is bad, I would argue, because of its unnecessary length. Regardless of whichever cut you're watching, the story of the source material didn't need two hours (let alone three) to tell. Lots of well designed filler scenes with some of the worst action sequences ever filmed. Harrison Ford's infamous acting (or lack thereof). All in all the movie should have been 45 minutes. The good, as mentioned the design work is fantastic.
>2049
is bad because it's everything that was wrong with its predecessor, telling essentially the same story but from a slightly different point of view. It has significantly worse (almost embarrassing) design work and color grading than Blade Runner. The supporting cast and characters are forgettable and poorly acted, almost to the point of exaggeration. Deckard's involvement in the story and the ending in general was hilarious. The good, Gosling's performance is pretty good for what little he was given.
Oh yeah? Now explain it again in Cantonese.
>Top Gun
尤其糟糕,因為它需要一個原本簡單嘅故仔同一個情節裝置,並將其長度延長到近两个小时,幾乎冇一個用于基本刻板印象之外嘅人物刻畫。 由于缺乏編劇,好多場景最終都冇真正嘅目的。 好嘅係大多數動作場面,儘管有空白嘅石板角色,但演員陣容絕對有足夠嘅魅力。
總而言之,我認為Top Gun喺發佈時獲得咗公平嘅評價。 平庸。 係一部有趣嘅電影,本可以毫不費力地提升自己。
>Maverick
好差,因為它實際上係同一部抵死嘅電影,由於時期嘅變化而發生一些變化。 冇添加新嘅情節元素,它回收咗相同嘅刻板印象,但從未真正添加任何嘢,因為喺佢阿媽嘅電影中乜都冇發生。 好唔好? 混音太好了,喺劇院度體驗真係好正。
>Blade Runner
我認為,係唔好嘅,因為它不必要嘅長度。 無論你喺睇邊個片段,源材料嘅故仔都唔需要两个小时(更不用說三个小时)嚟講述。 好多精心設計嘅填充場景,以及一些有史以來最糟糕的動作場面。 哈里森·福特臭名昭著嘅表演(或缺乏表演)。 總而言之,這部電影應該係45分钟。 好的,如前所述,設計工作太好了。
>2049
好衰,因為它的前身出咗乜嘢問題,講述了本質上相同嘅故仔,但由一個稍微不同的角度來看。 它具有比《銀翼殺手》更糟糕(幾乎令人尴尬)嘅設計工作同顏色分級。 配角同角色都健忘了,演技都好衰,幾乎到了誇張地步。 Deckard參與故仔同結局總的來說係搞笑嘅。 好的,高斯林嘅表現對於佢所得到嘅好少來說相當唔錯。
Based Seething
K is a better protagonist than Scott's Deckard, which isn't saying much, but still it's a positive.
Overall if I wanted the same feeling, the same drama but with a shorter runtime and better acting, I'd just watch Moon (2009) than 2049. The latter had its chance by having such a large budget. All the things it could have dedicated itself to. An original storyline, great action scenes, set design, score, etc...
Instead it did nothing. I don't even know where all the production money went, the movie quite literally looks like an independent production in a lot of areas.
not your call
I'll make the call
holy frick this board is dead, this reply should have 30 you's.
>A bait should have 30(you)s
Bait or mouse shill
Shit bait, have a nice day troon.
Everyone told me this film was white man kino but half the characters were black and there was even a mexican woman on his team
>Everyone told me this film was white man kino
literally no one said this
Every thread when this came out was using it to dunk on Disney as an example of how white conservative films are still more profitable than woke diversity-rich films
>maverick
>rooster
>Hangman
The 3 best pilots were white men, then as far as the higher ups in military go I think they were all white too. You're idiotic if you can't see how it's mainly a white male kino
> then as far as the higher ups in military go I think they were all white too
Everybody but Jon Hamm were black, like Hondo and Warlock.
You're forgetting Ed Harris
Ed Harris and Val Kilmer are white. Of those two you named I'm positive one wasn't any high rank
yeah they are american what did you expect
>white man kino
It's your own fault for unironically believing /misc/.
I was fully erect when maverick was proving they could run the course. no homo
That shit was fricking amazing.
Until then I was just taking this film as an ordinary sequel with some nice moments but nothing more. Starting from that solo test run the movie went full Mach 10 until the end, it was a total rollercoaster and I kept thinking it would end now but the action kept on going in a nice and surprising way. Lots of good humorous moments too.
If some hollyjews made this they'd have le character deconstruction and show Mav as a useless old man and we'd be robbed of kino. Good on Cruise for controlling his movies.
Why did Pete's card decline?
Also is it really a sequel when it just retcons its predecessor to reuse the same plot but told in a (somehow) worse fashion?
>Rooster and Hungman don't have an erotic sex scene at the end
I'll never forgive Tom for this.
She probably lied so he'd be forced to stop by again with the money
>What is this?
>You said to create a team, sir. There's your team.
The football scene was the gayest thing I've seen in a movie in many years
>Watched Top Gun for the first time the day before going to see Maverick in the theater
>Volleyball scene happens
>Blow it off, no pun intended
>Next day arrives
>Get to theater
>Air conditioning isn't working
>Theater has a mild crowd, but plenty of empty seats
>Guy sits down right next to me and whispers some offhand comment about the A/C to his sister
>Ass is sweating by the end of the first act
>Beach football scene
>Turn and make eye contact with the random dude
>mfw
>the theater's A/C didn't work
Where the frick do you live, Guatemala?
>Watched Top Gun for the first time the day before going to see Maverick in the theater
Holy shit are you me? Literally produced nostalgia.
Terminator 2
Back to the Future 2
Predator 2
Robocop 2
Problem Child 2
Gremlins 2
Spiderman 2
The list goes on...
Those were just regular sequels, not made 40 years later. OP said "nostalgia sequels" meaning movies made much later to cash in on an older popular film.
>Back to the Future 2
>Predator 2
>Robocop 2
if you genuinely think any of these are better than their originals you're a fricking moronic Black person
Terminator 2 while being a good movie completely fricks up the plot to the original
I liked it and it was one of the best kinoplex experiences of my life but truthfully? My Polish ass is a hoopty ass f-14 gonna take on 3 su-57 and come out in the end. Like it was good up until both maverick and rooster somehow survive and escape.
>My Polish ass is a hoopty ass f-14 gonna take on 3 su-57 and come out in the end.
It's not the plane, it's the pilot.
The twist is that the SU-57 is actually a really shitty plane when it comes to doing anything but looking cool at airshows
It's ok. It's a breathe of fresh air from all the ugly capeshit cgi and Whedonist dialogue but it's not good enough to end up as a classic movie.
What would your call sign be?
homosexual
Fleegman
Anus
Mr. Bones, my F-22 named Wild Ride
Daddy
Thunderwiener.
Something obnoxiously long and complex that would get end up getting my wingman killed because he couldn't finishing saying it in time to tell me something important

It was sort of its own thing altogether
> no iceman
Frick this entire board
He had a tasteful cameo in Maverick
>You gotta get over Goose, bro
>Dies
>Doesn't even get to play beach football
Movie sucked man
Ok sorry I stand corrected
Yeah I saw his documentary Val that thing was gold
dude has real life throat cancer.
He's lucky he filmed his career on camcorder
It's basically a miracle.
I bet he felt like a real dickhead after he threw Goose's dog tags into the ocean at the end of the first movie instead of saving them to give to his kid
The Last Jedi exists
i saw topgun for the first time like 3 weeks ago before watching maverick
the first one is so fricking gay
second one is kino
The first one is gayer than the scene where all the guys get naked and grab each other on a beach in slow motion for like 5 minutes straight?
I don't get it, how is the first one gay? Because it shows fit, smart young men?
Because Quentin Tarantino was the first "film theory" homosexual but he didn't have a youtube channel to spam his shitty takes, so he put them in his movies and normies just repeat everything he says like it's the gospel truth.
Like seriously, Maverick chases Charlie into the ladies room hoping to frick, that's how much his dick wants pussy. He eventually fricks her. But I guess giving your rival a shit-eating grin after he's been trying to take you down a peg is far more convincing indication of his sexual preference, sure.
Quentin you closeted fricking homo.
its just the volley ball scene really. the slow mo poses, the off screen low-fives that make it look like they are smacking each others asses, the music, its all subtly homoerotic.
gay innuendos every 2 minutes
To any normal man Top Gun isn't gay. Men hanging out shirtless on the beach isn't gay
This, and when they kiss each other on the lips it's called teambuilding and forming bonds. It doesn't get more manly and straight.
I thought the scene where this guy lynches a black man in front of Maverick in order to explain why his call sign is "Hangman" was a little overindulgent, but it did add depth to his character
>I see.... *looks at other pilot* now why do they call you Breaker?
Great transitional dialogue
Does he hang trannies?
doesnt need to they do it themselves
Did anyone else notice there was a second female pilot that didn't get a single line in the movie?
director went out of his way to fail the bechdel test
very based
nobody thought everh jennifer connelly scene was absolute dogshit?
The whole time I was trying to figure out who she was. "Is she replacing the actress from the first movie? Her name wasn't Penny, was it? Jennifer Connelly wasn't in Top Gun, right?" Turns out she's just thrown in so Tom Cruise has someone to romance
She's the admiral daughter mentioned in the first Top Gun.
She's the plot device that gets Mav to cope with the loss of Iceman and do the needful for the navy even if it means being a maverick in every sense of the word. It's kino
the movie sucks you desperate c**ts
I didn't see the original and I only saw TGM because China banned it, because frick chinsects. lol
Prey just got released anon
nice bait. kys
This movie made me want to buy a flight sim/air combat sim, flightstick controller, and VR headset. I already have a nice surround sound system.
Get AC7. TG Maverick's final mission share similarities with several missions in that game and it has a collab DLC where you can get the Mach 10 plane.
maverick is a worse copycat of original though.
It's a copycat but everything besides the romance is better. Rivalry and tension between Rooster and Maverick is better, the flying scenes are better, the actual underlying story of the mission they're training for is better.
It's the last gasp of American empire propaganda. Made by an aging star.
>It's the last gasp of American empire propaganda. Made by an aging star
I don't get it. Trannies are seething over this movie. Why don't they get off their fat, prolapsed asses and make one of the shit movies they like as impossibly successful as Top Gun Maverick is?? Surely with how many gays and queers there apparently are they could easily do it, right??
Oh right, they're just a contrarian fad that will die out shortly after they hang themselves.
And it made more money than Panther Black
Why is it the navy if they're all pilots?
It would be too difficult to coordinate flight missions if naval and airforce command were butting heads, so the navy gets its own airforce.
Did you know corpsmen are not actually marines?
>the navy gets its own airforce
What the frick, does the airforce get its own navy?
Not unless the airforce can field ships from their airstrips lol the Navy gets fighter jets because they have aircraft carriers, making it easier to deploy them around the world without the need for a nearby airbase.
By aircraft the largest air forces in the world in order are:
US Air Force
US Army
Russian Air Force
US Navy
Chinese Air Force
They're called aviators
1.3 billion dollar, baby.
For nostalgiacore specifically the only good example is Fury Road, interesting mentions include The Fly and The Thing remakes from the 80s
The Navy never flew P-51s tommy
With a plane, you can go anywhere you want
Military Propaganda Complex.
Catered directly to your primal monkey brain.
Just think how many lives will be ruined because of this film.
yes and thats unironically a good thing.
