    Absolutely nothing, if I'm being real honest. This was a last hurrah of sorts for Cruise. He's on his way out.

      He still has a two part Mission Impossible film coming out next year and he loves doing those films so much you bet he's got at least one more after those and given the rave response to Maverick he probably has an idea on how to concluding a probably Top Gun trilogy. Basically, Cruise isn't finished yet and thank God for that.

    Really good movies that appeal to wide audiences and are also sequels to popular properties which star an A-list actor will do well.

    It's a genuine movie made by people who genuinely want to make a good movie

    You'd be surprised how rare that is nowadays. Most movies exist to do something other than be good, whether that is propagandise, sell toys, create a franchise, etc

      I think if mega corps get too big, passion is completely sucked out of them. Along with competent people. You get people with good grades who are educated morons, corralled around by other educated morons. The writers and directors work on the product because it was assigned to them, nto because they had any passion for it.

      Unironically splitting up the big entertainment corporations would result in higher quality products.

      This. I haven't seen the like in over 10 years, unless you count asiatic toons. Fricking sad that that's the only media being made anywhere that isn't just a contrived vehicle for latest thing propaganda and social conditioning.

    >What they should take away from it:
    A solid, simple, non-subversive, feel-good action movie with no social politics and minimal CGI did very well.
    >What they will take away from it:
    Make more sequels to movies from 40 years ago, also ignore the fact that Maverick didn't shit all over the original movie and so keep up the extremely subversive writing.

        Literally anyone tasked with writing Star Wars at the time could be pulling those numbers. TGM has the prestige of both being successful and keeping the hype of the Top Gun franchise.

          Last Jedi made less than half what Force Awakens did, it had zero legs.

            Yes, it was a shit movie but had the Star Wars hype giving it massive numbers. TLJ literally crashed the entire franchise, but people still think it was successful.

    Its success coincided with the perfect storm of not pretending to care about COVID and being a franchise with a simplistic plot and milquetoast celebrity. It is the capstone on movies grave.
    The dialogue is spoken at a literal 3rd grade level and the plot is remedial. The movie itself is pathetic but what else was there to watch lol.

    Make movies that are actually enjoyable and don't insult the audience's intelligence by being as cynical as possible. Of course they won't learn their lesson.
