Just saw this.
The bad:
>too many minorities
>too many women pilots
>the bar scene where they all meet at the bar is cringe as frick
>all of the new pilots are cringe as frick except for Bob
>jon hamm is cringe
>who the frick is Jennnifer connelly's character?
>the big black guy was forced
the good
>tom
>ed harris
>the entire third act
>the sound
>the music
Overall a solid 7/10 flick. Not the masterpiece people are claiming it is.
>who the frick is Jennnifer connelly's character?
?t=29
what sort of bullshit is the rule about buying a round for the bar? homie IM BROKE
That was so dumb
>herpity derp you put your phone on the bar you have to buy 30 people drinks
Pilots can afford it
Shut the frick up, nerd.
Keep flippin those burgers, wagie
I earn more than you ever will, little b***h.
Thats cute lmao
based wage mogger
what job is this sir
Its the kind of job a pathetic little b***h like
could never hack.
Enjoy destroying your body
Thanks I will.
That's exactly the kind of job the tech revolution will kill
>you made 10k last month?
>you show me a pay stub for 10k dollars, I quit my job right now come and work for you
they should stop wasting my tax dollars and start dying for my country/freedom
>That was so dumb
it's actually one of the few parts of the movie which is 100% real
OK kid.
>OK kid.
So you have no idea how air base bars work yet you criticize a very accurate depiction in the movie. I'm afraid you might be moronic.
Why does this rule even exist?
don't go to a bar if you're broke
>oh look at me im fiscally responsible when i drink
i bet you floss too you fricking geek
i can just tell you are the absolute worst kind of person to drink with
being a fricking moron is not funny or quirky
youre right, far more fun to hang with guy on Cinemaphile who sips his 2 light beers slowly to "pace myself bro" i bet you split the uber ride when you take your boyfriend home because driving drunk is for idiots too
seethe
Driving drunk is for idiots.
Beer is a female drink
as is anything with cola in it
Drink at home on your own if broke, dumbass
This made me feel super poor but it is a real fighter pilot tradition at that bar (the real one).
>bob floyd? you're my new backseater?
Unironically, what the frick did she mean by this?
Phoenix a cute!
I dont think shes cute. She looked so familiar but I looked at her imdb and dont recognize anything she was in.
She looks like an attractive version of AOC
I'd be her backseater, if you know what I mean.
noose
Your complaints are stupid except
>the big black guy was forced
Which I agree with, the scene at the end where Tom is like "Thanks Black Man.. thank you". Uhh, what were you thanking him for? I get that he helped you up the ladder or whatever but Mav was acting like he just fricked his wife and mav is a big old cuck
Still a minor complaint, it's like a left over scene from where they cut an earlier scene of the black guy helping him or something
9/10 movie
It just seemed weird how he was always around and never had his role/title clearly defined.
He was Maverick's squire
why does your mind immediately jump to cuckoldry?
Because I'm posting on Cinemaphile and want (yous) so I add a little red meat
Why didn't they just drone strike the base
Gps jamming bro
Is this really a thing?
GPS is a very weak signal so it's pretty easy to jam, especially if they need the precision to fly through such a narrow canyon.
It'd get shot down by the missiles
i cant forgive this movie for making moustaches a fad again. ive had a mo for years and now its assumed i just want to be like Miles Teller? FRICK
ok Miles
t. clean shaven Cruise chad
the old must make way for the new
You can forgive a lot of Hollywood shit when he steals the hornet and rips it up the valley.
Yeah that was based.
>WELL, I'M GOING ANYWAYS
>the bar scene where they all meet at the bar is cringe as frick
that's probably the only bad scene in the movie. I get they needed a bar scene because they had one in the first movie, but it was a lousy way to introduce everybody
My commie (now) ex complained most of the way home about the movie's "pro-America" stance and how she didn't like white people or something.
>Ed Harris introduced as a villain character for the first 20 minutes of the movie
>then he stops being a villain
what the hell was with the "SHUT DOWN THIS MACH-10 PLANE PROGRAM DOWN!" plot point that was dropped as quickly as it was introduced?
That wasn't a plot point, that was the opening uh sting or whatever of the movie. The grabber, the hook, the give-em-a-little-taste-but-leave-em-wanting-more. Kapeesh?
It was a thematic and character point used to introduce important pieces of detail while getting the main character into position to start the main plot.
I thought they were gonna bomb some arab shithole to protect israel. Was it russia? Why did they say "5th generation fighter" instead of a specific aircraft?
Is the f-18 still the baddest aircraft that can launch from a carrier?
it was Iran
Oh. That makes sense. I forget Iran has mountains.
No it wasn't. They were saying Uranium, not Iranian
they kept talking about a "rogue state" enriching uranium in violation of international law and Iran is the only other country that uses the F-14, it's obviously Iran
Iran doesn't have the right geography near a body of water that could have a US carrier. Could be North Korea maybe?
>Uranium
>Iranian
I know you can mix this up but Anon it wasn't Iran.
It's intentionally vague like the first film, from the location it seems to be Russia or China since its on the Pacific ocean and there's snow. But the point is to not make the movie about politics, it's just generic bad hombres
>It's intentionally vague like the first film,
Huh? The MiG in the first film literally has a red star on it.
The red star being the national flag of which country again, anon?
>>the bar scene where they all meet at the bar is cringe as frick
agreed, the dialogue was so bad. They could have done a better job.
>>who the frick is Jennnifer connelly's character?
honestly they could have dropped her. I don't feel like she contributed much.
>>the music
I have to disagree. It was okay. They should have played Danger zone in its entirety instead of cutting it off in the first scene, and they probably should have used it more than once. the song on the beach just sounded like some boring generic modern music and was pretty forgettable for me. The song in the last scene was the same for me.
And I still think they should have played mighty wings over the end credits.
Still, it's a good movie, and the character development was kinda cool with rooster and stuff. in that regard it was better than the first movie. It's still good though, it's a fun movie that's not too serious in a sea of garbage.
did they play "Take My Breath Away"?
no.
No 🙁
The romance in the new movie was ass. Guess they didn't earn the right.
The romance in the first film is formulaic shit and seems like it's only included out of obligation to the eighties trends. "Take My Breath Away" makes it seem more meaningful than it really is.
The make out/sex scene of the original always felt kind of cringe IMO. Half the time they are licking one another.
They had that Gaga lady write something for the love theme instead. It's uh... not very good.
I liked the Lady Gaga song at the end and I'm a music connoisseur with a wide range and eclectic taste.
Oh okay my mistake then haha
Its not a great movie its passable but I think the real reason why people love it so much id because its not a pozzed trainwreck or a shallow women/nonwhite empowerment vehicle. The goyim are clamoring for normal movies and I hope hollywood takes notice and that this is the start of a return to form.
>The goyim are clamoring for normal movies and I hope hollywood takes notice and that this is the start of a return to form.
A bunch of reviews from ~~*critics*~~ are already blasting the movie for the basic left-wing talking points. People will be punished for the success of this. Watch Tom Cruise do an interview within the next few months about white supremacy, or diversity being our strength, or climate change, or they just make him wear a dress. He'll probably do the interview with a black eye, too
Also the fact they treated Maverick with respect ousted of as a outdated fossil that needs to be killed off. It showed thR yes Maverick is getting old and drones are taking over but he was still respected and it was hilarious to see him school all the new kids he was training. The movie r3ally succeeded also cause it respected the first movie and played off of it. No BS like nu disney star wars bringing old characters back just to show them as useless and kill them off. The movie shows Maverick is still boss Black person and even gives the new kids some time to shine. But of course Maverick has to put them in their place.
>race
>muh women
>cringe
>cringe
>cringe
>more inceldom
this place has fried your brain
>look mom i posted the far right talking points for my internet 'friends'
>bar scene
>all the pilots enter one a time and very loudly have a conversation that conveniently explains their issues with each other and gives some insight into their personality while Tom Cruise just sits there occasionally reacting to something said
frick that was bad
And we never found out what BOB stood for.
Baby on board
Big Ol Benis
it's moderately woke. It still follows all the forced diversity rules and tropes save one. In an ocean of woke piss even something like this is seen as anti woke.
yes, I agree with this assessment, its about the best you can hope nowadays though
Not le heckin FIFTH GENERATION AIRCRAFT!!!!
Also my theater was packed. Cool crowd of people. The was a funny moment towards the end (I think when rooster and maverick are arguing on the ground after getting shot down) where the crowd laughed, and then some boomer woman had input lag and laughed after everyone else in a really funny boomer woman laugh and then everyone laughed at her laugh. It was a cool movie theater moment.
Don't forget based Hangman
>Hey bro, come play football with us. You're not shy are you?
Dogfight football? I'm in.
When was Hangman exposed to Videodrome signal?
>too many minorities
>too many women pilots
Are you guys just trying to be edgy with these posts or do you genuinely get upset by seeing people who are not straight white men? Either way, you're moronic.
Women pilots are unironically a statistically small minorty which approaches vanishing points when you get to stunt pilots test pilots and fighter pilots
If this is Top Gun "the best of the best pilots", even in quota-driven USA 2020 you're not likely to realistically see more than 1 elite fighter pilot in a sample of this size
You could probably make a similar case against minorities based from statistics alone but it's mostly a meme
You don't understand reality.
>too many minorities
couple of blacks guys, what's the big deal?
>too many women pilots
Literally one
>the bar scene where they all meet at the bar is cringe as frick
It's cool, you're a basement nerd, that's why you didn't like it
>all of the new pilots are cringe as frick except for Bob
They're cool
>jon hamm is cringe
true
>who the frick is Jennnifer connelly's character?
no one
>the big black guy was forced
true
some decent action here and there but the original is a better movie
didn't like the montage where Top Cruise wrecks everyone, it was quippy and capeshit like
didn't like the rivalry between Hangman and Rooster, felt like a dollar store Maverick vs Iceman, do something different
anons who likes this but hate capeshit, explain yourselves
negative ghost rider
there's at least some grounding in what the characters are capable of doing. they're pilots and they fly planes. that's it. even if some of the stuff they survive and the scenarios they get into are a little outlandish, that's just hollywood. with capeshit literally nothing matters. a character is as powerful or as weak as whatever the movie they need to shit out to fill this quarter's quota needs them to be, and the plot will reconfigure itself so that marvelboy and marvelgirl do marvel things for the marvel movie like everyone expects them to. superheros are just boring. i've literally never liked superhero stories outside of a handful of movies, and the fact that those movies are as popular as they are still baffles me to this day.
>tfw Tom Cruise's star power fades as he ages visibly over the next ten years, and he becomes so desperate for work that he starts playing a character in the MCU.
