I don't care what anyone says. Top Gun: Maverick was soulless garbage. Only zogbots mainlining US military propaganda liked it.

Yeah, the real problem is that it wasn't gay enough to measure up to the first Top Gun.

1. OP is right, it was just cashgrab based on the original

2. it bothered me that TG:M proves what we already know - modern actors are uglier than they were few decades ago. im not a fag, but look at the original movie cadets, and then look at the new ones.

It came out in a desperate time. We needed to cheer for it to fight the woke movement...

It's insane how well made Maverick is compared to Top Gun.

But at the end of the day, both are propaganda so in the trash it goes.

It was an entirely inferior derivation of the first movie. Top Gun '86 had that vibrant, crisp film look. The new movie looked like a fake AI version of the original.
>digital can look just as good as film!
Then why doesn't it?

Great action, once in a lifetime tier kino with absolutely nothing going on underneath the hood

I think people were just happy to have a decades-later sequel that seemed like it was made by people who actually liked the characters/story of the original movie.

2010's remakes/sequels were mostly done by people who resented having to use an established IP and just wanted to do their own thing so they'd sideline or kill the original characters and ignore the canon to make room for their own creations.

Why have Jews spent the last twenty years posing as anti-semites whenever they want to do their "America bad" routine?
You're so tiresome.

The young pilots were tryhard and fake. The original's guys homosexual goofiness was effortless and authentic

I wanted to see more Jennifer Connely and the qt Latina in the squad and less of Goose's whiny emo bitch son.

Also, kinda hilarious for the pilots to be jamming out to Great Balls of Fire in 2022. That song was ancient when the OG Top Gun came out. Do Boomers really expect everyone else to LARP out their 1950's childhoods until the end of time?

it has two major flaws, the clothes that they made Jennifer Connolly wear and the way they get saved in the final dogfight. but it's definitely got a little bit of soul.

I though it was okay but it was weird to see it being hailed as a new film finally worth seeing in theaters. I don't find many new films I have much interest in seeing in theaters either, but I still feel like I came across ones that are comparable if not better to Maverick leading up to its release.

It wasn't established IPs that they resented, it was white male heroes.

The shots at sunset are what make this film look amazing. The intro, this, and the final barrel roll shot... All amazing. The cinematographers (one they modeled Goose's death after, his name was Art Scholl) had an eye for beautiful shots.
TGM was okay, but definitely soulless compared to the original

soulless? literally showed the importance of the soul, the power of will to push yourself a little bit further to make it through the canyon fast and agile enough to complete the mission. where others might just give up.
it's all about soul.

No, I'll take the real flying scenes in the original over the cgi fest of maverick
