WLM - Top Gun: Maverick
Added 2023-01-06 05:00:03 +0000 UTCThis month on We ❤️ Movies, we’re talking a blue streak about one of the best Hollywood blockbusters of (at least) the last decade, and one of the best films of last year, Top Gun: Maverick! How refreshing was it to see all of these real-deal sequences caught on film? Couldn’t we have had a few more scenes with Ed Harris? And how terrible is that bar’s bell-ringing policy? PLUS: With only three weeks to plan this mission, Maverick doesn’t for a second forget about the importance of down time and clocking out right at five!
Top Gun: Maverick stars Tom Cruise, Val Kilmer, Jennifer Connolly, Miles Teller, Jon Hamm, Glen Powell, Bashir Salahuddin, Charles Parnell, Monica Barbaro, Lewis Pullman, Jay Ellis, Danny Ramirez, and Ed Harris as Rear Admiral Chester ‘Hammer’ Cain; directed by Joseph Kosinski.

2025-05-22 06:15:25 +0000 UTCWilliam, to be fair it was always advertised as it's own thing. I've been a patreon for quite some time and have always felt satisfied with the amount of content the guys churn up for us. On top of that they add new series of shows all the time for Patreon Patrons. If you're not satisfied with the quantity of content why not email the guys directly instead of threatening to cut them off because you didn't get one live episode? C'mon now....

2023-02-01 22:14:46 +0000 UTCSo when does a regular patreon member get the love and thunder stream? It seems like you guys want to be cut off of my regular payments.

2023-01-10 23:15:06 +0000 UTCEvery time that loud bell sound rings out in the score I have this pavlovian expectation that The Undertaker is about to show up.

2023-01-07 23:55:45 +0000 UTCI got super high and watched this film in the theaters. A great and giggly experience. Lots of fun and super cheesy. Glad to hear about it on the pod! ☝️💙

2023-01-07 03:37:08 +0000 UTCI think I read somewhere that the only other country that had F-14s is Iran... so it's probably Iran.

2023-01-07 03:19:30 +0000 UTCI agree wholeheartedly, dude's personal life is bizarre and not to my personal liking, but goddamn he knows the kinds of movies he excels at and he does an amazing job of producing films for us

2023-01-07 01:12:36 +0000 UTCI don't know if y'all talk about it in the 'cast yet since I haven't finished it, but I love when you all talk about the "Cruise as Kirk" moment, because I think on another level this is also such a meta film about Cruise, about Hollywood and movie stars, it feels bizarrely one of the most personal Tom Cruise films where he's reiterating: this is where I belong, I belong doing this fucking insane MI series stunts, I'm a movie star, this is my purpose, and like the dude is weird don't get me wrong but he puts 1000 percent of himself into this shit and it shows and God bless him the man is showing us fucking films, not air conditioned green boxes.

2023-01-06 19:53:44 +0000 UTCI agree about “Maverick,” but I wouldn’t say eat shit “Avatar 2.” Cmon now. They’re great bookends to a stellar year of movies.
Paul
2023-01-06 18:25:47 +0000 UTCI've avoided this movie like the plague... I guess I'll watch it before I listen to this episode

2023-01-06 17:13:14 +0000 UTCThose aren’t the terms I was looking for though. I was trying to say that was Steve was looking at was a keystoning issue.

2023-01-06 16:04:07 +0000 UTCThis movie rocks, by far the best theatre experience of 2022, eat shit Avatar 2. Eric is correct at the top, this movie has no right to be as good as it is

2023-01-06 15:06:58 +0000 UTCAn aircraft carrier is a boat. That's why pilots from one are in the Navy, they live on a boat. The Air Force doesn't have boats.

2023-01-06 15:03:19 +0000 UTCFormer projectionist - May be wrong (it's been 20 years) but I believe the formats Andrew was looking for were Flat/Scope? edit - I was, predictably, wrong as hell
