The flying is absolutely breathtaking. I can't believe Hollywood made a sequel that pays homage and gives nostalgia to the fans while not being cringe and having a good story at the same time. Did they really do a volleyball scene? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a modified version but was non-cringe and served a point. I remember watching the trailer and thinking they just ripped off the first movie, but it doesn't do that whatsoever. Also Goose's son looked like an awful idea in the trailer, in the movie his character is fantastic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Speedo Posted June 3, 2022 Report Share Posted June 3, 2022 Rad! I’m looking forward to it, although, I probably won’t get the chance to see it in theaters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s definitely a product of it’s time. Worth a watch if you get bored enough but only if you can stomach 80s cringe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jan Backing Track Posted June 5, 2022 Report Share Posted June 5, 2022 Who would have known Top Gun THE SEQUEL is one of the best movies ever? Genuinely shocked by the reactions and hard to believe. I like Tom Cruise the actor though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jan Backing Track Posted June 5, 2022 Report Share Posted June 5, 2022 Watching Staircase with Colin Firth. Going in blind, so I'm really interested to see where this goes. Rewatching Lost also, so much foreshadowing in these first few episodes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Godfather 2, Terminator 2 (I like the first = though), Two Towers/ROTK, Back to the Future 2, Empire Strikes Back It's rare. Those are literally the only good sequels that come to mind and it's been a long time since any. Excited to check it out although I never really loved the first?

Terminator 2 yes, I didn't include LOTR or SW because I view them as trilogies telling the same story arc. And the rest of the Terminator/Aliens franchises are jokes (even though I still enjoy them as good-bad movies) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anchorman 2 was the worst follow up, depressing. Zoolander 2 same if not worse. Both could have been good sequels too.. Rush Hour 2 was okay? Clerks 2 definitely.

I’ve never seen the second one. The first one was okay but a Will Ferrell comedy is the same as any other Will Ferrell comedy and so, after the first watch, I never watched it again.

I must be thinking of something else. The humor was definitely neutered. Nvm, JARJAR is a dumb-dumb. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First Zoolander and Anchorman were humorous enough. They're fun when you're in the mood for it. The sequels were abysmal though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
