I know this is just playing off the Man from UNCLE cast but I literally can’t keep Henry Cavill and Armie Hammer straight in any roles they’ve ever been in.

I've been watching the Treadstone show and I'm starting to develop goon face blindness, all the dudes are some kind of budget Henry Hammer

Henry's career hasn't blown up because he likes playing WoW, Overwatch, and Total War too much. But he's going to be Sherlock in the upcoming Enola Holmes movie with the girl from Stranger Things. My goddaughter reads those books, so cool that she has that to look forward to  Also, Cavill's Geralt voice owns.

Cavill's August Walker is the best James Bond henchman we've had in decades.

Now I'm trying to remember whether that flub made it into the actual movie. Still, that entire fight scene was loving top-tier.

McSpanky posted:That does indeed sound pretty skeevy, but I'm okay with a movie tackling themes of vengeance also exploring the territory of going too far and innocents getting caught in the crossfire/used as pawns in the revenge scheme. Even if the revenge seems righteous, especially if it does. It depends on how the spoilered events are depicted by the movie, it could go either way. I think it's also worth talking about white woman using false sexual assault allegations against black men to justify their torture and murder throughout American history.

So... is there a story? A conflict? Or is it just an exercise in pure nostalgia? Regardless, as pretty as some of those shots are I couldn't watch that sort of overt military propaganda in good conscience.

I hope the movie is about Tom Cruise flying over the middle east with zero opposition just blowing away helpless civilians in hospitals

AND THE VOLLEYBALL SCENE? REMEMBER?" Hopefully it's just the way the trailer was edited, but still, I groaned a bit.

This is the Force Awakens of fighter jet movie reboots. I'd much rather watch a half-rear end reboot of Firebirds over this, honestly.

Top Gun 2 kinda has a problem where theres no longer any other country that can even touch our airforce in plane-to-plane fighting. The Soviets were a threat during the first movie, but theres no one to replace them. Who can even launch planes against the U.S at the moment? Europe's minuscule airforces are practically just franchises of our own, the Russians are dilapidated, and Hollywood wouldn't dare piss off China by making them the villains.

They're gonna stick Maverick in an F-35 and have him fly across the international date line.

UKRAINE also im almost positive that mustached guy with the flat top is playing Goose's son. uhhh no thanks i dont mind a little bit tom cruise vanity project but its starting to wear thin. youre an actor. act. pretend to fly the jet. we're not more impressed that hes doing it, if anything it breaks the wall. feels like a tom cruise documentary.

I'm speaking with some authority here when I say you are very wrong. Russia is a paper tiger, but absolutely not due to the quality of their aircraft. The PLAAF is extremely capable, with great aircraft and they spend A LOT of money on flying hours and maintenance. India could pose a decent threat. Take for example Desert Storm, looking at it now, it was obvious that we would win, but that was mainly due to the tactics employed at a strategic level and incredible poor military structure with major tactical decisions being made by Hussein. Also destroying your opponent's aircraft on the ground is a big help. At the time, going into it, Iraq had maybe the single most seasoned air force on the planet, with a IADS that made Hanoi and Berlin look like a string of black cats. The dudes going into that absolutely believed they would take murderous casualties, and in fact there is only one air force anywhere that has achieved an A2A kill against the US since Vietnam... and that would be Iraq. Like, I get what you're saying but you're wrong. Julius CSAR fucked around with this message at 01:46 on Dec 17, 2019 |

The real answer is no one, but "dogfighting" and jet fighters in general are becoming increasingly obsolete. Exhibit A: the F-35. Exhibit B: Drones, cyberwarfare, and ballistic missiles. Our super fighter jets are designed for a world where the enemy country would need jets for an air war, but they don't. We may see how this theory plays out in a war with Iran. Oh yeah, so movies. There's going to be a Top Gun 2?

Iran was the only country the US ever exported F-14s to. They still fly them.

Best take about Top Gun 2 I've found so farquote:It will be gung ho, corny, inaccurate," America is the best " , jingoistic, the aircraft will make evolutions that no fighter pilot on earth would even consider, every cannon round will be laser guided ( for the "blue" team ) , it I hope will have a music score to kill for, it will be another recruiting tool for the US Navy, it will be daft, stupid, ridiculous, and most of all, EFFIN' GLORIOUS !!! pretty much

I hope Top Gun 2 comes out the day after we finally use the F35 against Iran and they get destroyed by either Soviet-era SAMs or high altitude dust clouds, whichever hits them first

Back when the first trailer was released I saw a synopsis about Cruise being like a test pilot to compete against a new drone fighter. I’m outing my anime past here, but it sounds a lot like Macross Plus, which I always thought would make a good Top Gun sequel.
