Weird that I had never heard of this before this summer. Many funny scenes. As over the top as any movie could be.

I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

I love that one. The Beach Boys parody kills me, and I genuinely love the song.

I'm taking my nephew to see Top Gun Maverick on Friday. He's 12, nearly 13. What should I tell him about the original, which he has not seen? I'm tempted to tell him nothing. Maybe I should tell him a little about Navy pilots and TOPGUN or maybe how Goose died

Tell him about the homoerotic scenes.

Top Gun is a much gayer movie than Maverick. There are very similar scenes in both movies that play a lot gayer in the original. I think it's because you were gay if you thought a man's body was beautiful in 1986, but in 2022 you're allowed to enjoy men's bodies without necessarily being gay

Not a cheese steak. That would be overkill.

I really like it. Strange that people feel so differently about it. A good friend of mine that I used to work with, came into work one day, and said he had seen the worst movie ever. This was it.

Today my wife absolutely hated this movie. Like I’ve never seen from her before, or maybe this and the new Spiderman.

I love westerns, and consider this one of the better 21st century westerns.
