00:00:30,160 --> 00:00:32,439
Speaker 3: Hey, those call signs are real. We got to at

9
00:00:32,520 --> 00:00:34,920
least explain what call signs we've given ourselves.

10
00:00:34,960 --> 00:00:36,520
Speaker 2: Oh okay, we both have had a heck of a

11
00:00:36,560 --> 00:00:38,159
week and I don't need to get into my week,

12
00:00:38,240 --> 00:00:41,840
but just prayers for Caleb, my son who you've heard

13
00:00:41,840 --> 00:00:43,359
about at a major head injury.

14
00:00:43,399 --> 00:00:44,799
Speaker 3: We spent a week in the hospital.

15
00:00:44,960 --> 00:00:47,240
Speaker 2: Jason had to go to the hospital for a little bit,

16
00:00:47,240 --> 00:00:49,039
but it was an entirely different experience.

17
00:00:49,520 --> 00:00:51,880
Speaker 3: Good news is Caleb's doing just fine. Yeah, he's on

18
00:00:51,920 --> 00:00:54,920
the road road to recovery. Yes, I have had not one,

19
00:00:54,960 --> 00:00:58,200
but two kidney stones since we recorded Top Gun episode.

20
00:00:58,479 --> 00:01:02,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, did you hit the brakes and fly alright by

21
00:01:03,280 --> 00:01:04,319
switching the guns.

22
00:01:04,079 --> 00:01:06,680
Speaker 3: On this one. So that's why Jason's name is Pebbles.

23
00:01:06,719 --> 00:01:08,560
Now you gotta tell them my mind. Yeah, okay, So

24
00:01:08,799 --> 00:01:10,439
if you guys will go back and listen to our

25
00:01:10,560 --> 00:01:14,879
Saturday Night Fever versus Dirty Dancing Movies comparison Part one.

26
00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:16,840
At the very end of that, you'll hear an outtake

27
00:01:16,920 --> 00:01:20,959
of somebody hacking and spitting up something really gross. D

28
00:01:21,159 --> 00:01:24,159
took a huge bite out of some green jerky that

29
00:01:24,359 --> 00:01:27,120
was covered with furry mold. He didn't look what he

30
00:01:27,159 --> 00:01:28,959
was eating. He just popped his mouth chewed it up.

31
00:01:29,159 --> 00:01:32,920
Speaker 2: Next thing I know, I have never seen so much

32
00:01:33,040 --> 00:01:36,640
nasty and moldy fungus scum in my life.

33
00:01:36,799 --> 00:01:38,799
Speaker 3: It was and I put it in my mouth. It

34
00:01:38,840 --> 00:01:41,239
was in and it was chewing. Oh my gosh, that

35
00:01:41,319 --> 00:01:42,959
was terrible, terrible, fuzzy.

36
00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:46,680
Speaker 2: Okay, love about us. Let's jump into Top Gun, Maverick.

37
00:01:52,200 --> 00:01:58,000
Speaker 3: This is a movie that we have been waiting for

38
00:01:58,200 --> 00:02:01,560
three years for this to come out. Three years. We've

39
00:02:01,560 --> 00:02:04,000
been waiting thirty six years for this. That is true.

40
00:02:04,040 --> 00:02:04,599
That is true.

41
00:02:04,640 --> 00:02:06,799
Speaker 2: If you saw the movie back in nineteen eighty six,

42
00:02:06,879 --> 00:02:09,240
you wanted nothing more than another Top Gun, and they

43
00:02:09,280 --> 00:02:11,800
made us wait three and a half decades to do it.

44
00:02:11,840 --> 00:02:14,000
But this movie was originally supposed to come out in

45
00:02:14,120 --> 00:02:18,240
July of twenty nineteen. It got postponed, It got postponed

46
00:02:18,280 --> 00:02:21,199
again in twenty twenty because of COVID, it got postponed

47
00:02:21,240 --> 00:02:23,879
again in twenty twenty one because we are still feeling

48
00:02:23,919 --> 00:02:28,639
the effects of COVID, And finally this year, twenty twenty two,

49
00:02:29,039 --> 00:02:31,439
we have got our Top Gun sequel.

50
00:02:31,520 --> 00:02:33,960
Speaker 3: You and I have tickets this Tuesday night. For those

51
00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:35,840
of you listening out there, we have not seen this yet.

52
00:02:35,919 --> 00:02:38,039
Speaker 2: Yeah, well, at the beginning of this episode, we will

53
00:02:38,039 --> 00:02:40,039
not have seen it. Then we're going to tell you, Hey,

54
00:02:40,080 --> 00:02:42,159
we're gonna go watch the movie. Then we'll say, all right,

55
00:02:42,240 --> 00:02:44,479
get ready for spoilers, folks, because we're going to tell

56
00:02:44,479 --> 00:02:47,199
you about our moviegoing experience. So the second half of

57
00:02:47,240 --> 00:02:49,560
this episode you will get to hear what we think

58
00:02:49,719 --> 00:02:50,960
after having seen the movie.

59
00:02:51,039 --> 00:02:52,919
Speaker 3: Yes, and we will let you know when we are

60
00:02:53,080 --> 00:02:55,199
entering the spoiler zone. That way you can pull the

61
00:02:55,439 --> 00:02:58,120
ingestion handle get out of there before any spoilers drop.

62
00:02:58,199 --> 00:03:01,719
Speaker 2: Yeah, make sure you wait until the cap goes completely off,

63
00:03:01,840 --> 00:03:04,599
otherwise serious injury or death may result.

64
00:03:04,719 --> 00:03:06,360
Speaker 3: That's right, Watch out for the jet wash.

65
00:03:06,560 --> 00:03:09,120
Speaker 2: Okay, before we jump full on into this one, there

66
00:03:09,159 --> 00:03:11,840
a couple of like kind of tragic stories that go

67
00:03:11,919 --> 00:03:14,080
along with this. And I hate to be a downer,

68
00:03:14,120 --> 00:03:16,120
So let's just cover those real quick. We've got a

69
00:03:16,159 --> 00:03:18,560
new director on this one. We've got Joseph Kazinski who

70
00:03:18,599 --> 00:03:21,199
is the director on this and that is because almost

71
00:03:21,240 --> 00:03:24,479
ten years ago Tony Scott, who went on to become

72
00:03:24,680 --> 00:03:28,400
an incredible blockbuster director. A couple of my favorites are

73
00:03:28,479 --> 00:03:31,560
main on Fire and True Romance, which I think we

74
00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:34,639
should cover True Romance at some point, written by Quentin Tarantino.

75
00:03:34,840 --> 00:03:38,240
Maybe that one versus Natural Born Killers. It sounds good, right, Okay,

76
00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:41,680
So anyway, Tony Scott made some amazing movies.

77
00:03:41,800 --> 00:03:44,520
Speaker 3: And then away. Crimson Tide is one of my favorites.

78
00:03:44,560 --> 00:03:45,800
Oh yeah, that is a good one. Hey.

79
00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:48,240
Speaker 2: He did Days of Thunder, which we talked about our

80
00:03:48,280 --> 00:03:51,159
last episode. Was not the best collaboration between him and

81
00:03:51,280 --> 00:03:53,319
Tom Cruise, but both of those guys met.

82
00:03:53,159 --> 00:03:54,680
Speaker 3: Their new wives there.

83
00:03:54,879 --> 00:03:57,719
Speaker 2: Yeah, and Tony Scott had twin boys with that wife.

84
00:03:57,759 --> 00:04:00,360
But then, after all these amazing movies, after all this

85
00:04:00,439 --> 00:04:06,560
amazing success, on August nineteenth, twenty twelve, witnesses see him

86
00:04:06,680 --> 00:04:11,599
drive his car onto the Vincent Thomas Bridge in Los Angeles, stops,

87
00:04:11,919 --> 00:04:17,360
gets out, climbs over, and jumps off. Amazing, shocking tragedy

88
00:04:17,399 --> 00:04:22,439
that no one can explain. Literally, Ridley Scott's words were inexplicable. Now,

89
00:04:22,480 --> 00:04:24,199
there was some talk about whether he might have been

90
00:04:24,199 --> 00:04:26,040
dealing with cancer or not. I don't have a firm

91
00:04:26,079 --> 00:04:28,920
answer on that. Ridley Scott said that he was, but

92
00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:32,199
other sources say that he wasn't. But it's just, you know,

93
00:04:32,279 --> 00:04:35,040
you never know what demon somebody is dealing with, and

94
00:04:35,079 --> 00:04:37,519
it's just a big tragedy. If you have any thoughts

95
00:04:37,639 --> 00:04:40,279
like that, please go get help, because it's there are

96
00:04:40,319 --> 00:04:42,639
ways to avoid those thoughts without ending it.

97
00:04:42,639 --> 00:04:45,600
Speaker 3: All really really tragic. I remember when that happened. It

98
00:04:45,680 --> 00:04:47,480
was very very sad, very sad.

99
00:04:47,759 --> 00:04:51,279
Speaker 2: Now, also kind of a tragedy is the amazing actor

100
00:04:51,399 --> 00:04:53,800
Val Kilmer, who also went on to do tons of

101
00:04:53,839 --> 00:04:56,879
great movies, including True Romance. He was Elvios Elvis and

102
00:04:56,920 --> 00:04:57,560
True Romance.

103
00:04:57,680 --> 00:05:02,199
Speaker 3: Sure he is also Holliday go back to our Tombstone episode.

104
00:05:02,279 --> 00:05:05,959
Speaker 2: Yeah, I so many, so many great roles. And he

105
00:05:06,079 --> 00:05:10,600
tragically got throat cancer and has completely lost his voice.

106
00:05:11,040 --> 00:05:14,160
Speaker 3: Yeah. If you have a chance to watch the documentary

107
00:05:14,199 --> 00:05:17,680
called Val, it's on Prime right now. It's super interesting

108
00:05:17,759 --> 00:05:20,160
Number one because it's a total peak behind the curtain.

109
00:05:20,199 --> 00:05:22,199
Because Val Kilmer was one of these guys who had

110
00:05:22,199 --> 00:05:24,839
a camcorder with him everywhere. He went. Oh wow, So

111
00:05:24,879 --> 00:05:27,120
there's tons of cool stuff. I mean, you get a

112
00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:29,639
lot of behind the scenes stuff on Top Gun, him

113
00:05:29,639 --> 00:05:32,040
with his kids, him with his wife, and then him

114
00:05:32,040 --> 00:05:35,839
dealing with this tragic throat cancer that actually took his larynx.

115
00:05:36,040 --> 00:05:38,319
And so there was some speculation about whether he would

116
00:05:38,319 --> 00:05:42,079
be able to rally enough to be in Top Gun. Maverick, Yeah,

117
00:05:42,120 --> 00:05:44,160
he is in the movie. It's gonna be interesting to

118
00:05:44,199 --> 00:05:45,439
see how he's used.

119
00:05:45,560 --> 00:05:47,519
Speaker 2: So I heard they're using like some kind of AI

120
00:05:47,920 --> 00:05:49,759
to give him a voice or something.

121
00:05:50,079 --> 00:05:54,560
Speaker 3: It's amazing. Okay, So they have created his voice from

122
00:05:54,639 --> 00:05:57,040
all of his movies. They've gathered it together in a

123
00:05:57,040 --> 00:06:00,279
computer and it spit out a computerized voice that's sounds

124
00:06:00,319 --> 00:06:02,560
exactly like him. And when I say exactly, I mean

125
00:06:02,680 --> 00:06:04,639
if my eyes were closed and you played that clip

126
00:06:04,639 --> 00:06:08,360
for me, I would say, that is Val Kilmer speaking Wow. Wow,

127
00:06:08,439 --> 00:06:10,279
it is fascinating. We'll play a clip of it right here.

128
00:06:10,439 --> 00:06:13,360
Speaker 4: When we think of the most talented creative people, they

129
00:06:13,360 --> 00:06:15,920
speak to us in a unique way. A phrase we

130
00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:19,480
often hear is having a creative voice. But I was

131
00:06:19,519 --> 00:06:25,160
struck by throat cancer. After getting treated, my voice, as

132
00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:28,720
I knew it was taken away from me. But now

133
00:06:28,759 --> 00:06:32,759
I can express myself again. I can bring these dreams

134
00:06:32,759 --> 00:06:33,000
to you.

135
00:06:35,319 --> 00:06:38,439
Speaker 3: It's incredible. I mean, that just sounds like him. That

136
00:06:38,600 --> 00:06:42,560
is a computer talking. Wow. That is that. It's nuts.

137
00:06:42,800 --> 00:06:45,360
Speaker 2: Okay, So let's talk a little bit about the other

138
00:06:45,360 --> 00:06:47,360
stuff that's in the trailer. All right, Yeah, so I

139
00:06:47,399 --> 00:06:49,920
can tell you that there's not beach volleyball but beach

140
00:06:49,920 --> 00:06:53,040
football on this one. Okay, that's interesting, right, he's spinning

141
00:06:53,079 --> 00:06:55,319
the football in his hand right instead of flexing on

142
00:06:55,360 --> 00:06:58,360
the volleyball court. And from what I understood from the

143
00:06:58,399 --> 00:07:00,879
actors on that one, the phrase that they heard over

144
00:07:00,920 --> 00:07:04,879
and over again was more oil. They even thought about

145
00:07:04,879 --> 00:07:07,040
having t shirts printed up that said top gun Maverick,

146
00:07:07,399 --> 00:07:07,959
more oil.

147
00:07:08,959 --> 00:07:09,680
Speaker 3: That's funny.

148
00:07:09,879 --> 00:07:11,240
Speaker 2: And then the other part of that, and this is

149
00:07:11,279 --> 00:07:13,360
kind of similar to our story on Bell Kilmer in

150
00:07:13,439 --> 00:07:16,480
the first movie, is they shot that scene, you know,

151
00:07:16,519 --> 00:07:19,000
and as an actor you have to totally prep for

152
00:07:19,079 --> 00:07:23,120
those shirtless scenes, and so they shot that scene and

153
00:07:23,160 --> 00:07:25,360
then they're like, okay, who finally done with all of

154
00:07:25,399 --> 00:07:27,480
that work out, all of that prep you know, and

155
00:07:27,519 --> 00:07:30,720
Tom Cruise sent them this big, beautiful like coconut cake

156
00:07:30,759 --> 00:07:34,800
for them to eat. And then just before Christmas time,

157
00:07:34,920 --> 00:07:37,800
whenever you know, they've just finished with Thanksgiving, Joseph Kacinski,

158
00:07:37,800 --> 00:07:39,959
the director, is like, hey, guys, we can't really use

159
00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:40,680
any of that footage.

160
00:07:40,720 --> 00:07:41,800
Speaker 3: I need to do that again.

161
00:07:42,800 --> 00:07:45,639
Speaker 2: So they had to go and try to fast paced,

162
00:07:45,759 --> 00:07:49,240
get themselves slimmed back down to reshoot the football scene.

163
00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:49,879
I saw some of it.

164
00:07:49,879 --> 00:07:50,839
Speaker 3: They looking good.

165
00:07:51,079 --> 00:07:53,160
Speaker 2: It doesn't matter if those guys eat some turkey and

166
00:07:53,199 --> 00:07:54,839
some stuffing, They're gonna still look good.

167
00:07:54,959 --> 00:07:58,839
Speaker 3: Glenn pal said that after they shot that first scene, Yeah,

168
00:07:58,879 --> 00:08:01,079
they were all like high five and they all went

169
00:08:01,120 --> 00:08:04,920
out for milkshakes and tater times afterwards, you know, and they,

170
00:08:04,959 --> 00:08:07,480
I mean, they had to really be diligent about their

171
00:08:07,519 --> 00:08:11,120
bodies because is there a more iconic scene in Top

172
00:08:11,120 --> 00:08:13,600
Gun than the volleyball scene. The volleyball scene, I mean,

173
00:08:13,600 --> 00:08:17,120
it's definitely iconic for sure, for sure, So the sequel

174
00:08:17,160 --> 00:08:18,879
to that, I mean, these guys had to look great.

175
00:08:18,959 --> 00:08:22,240
And these guys are buffed up. Yeah, young, good looking guys.

176
00:08:22,279 --> 00:08:24,000
It's the key to the success of the movie, right,

177
00:08:24,040 --> 00:08:26,279
No Chinese food for them, and I noticed.

178
00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:27,680
Speaker 2: A girl in her sports brad and the one that

179
00:08:27,680 --> 00:08:30,920
we've got this time. So hey, great, hey, thumbs up

180
00:08:30,920 --> 00:08:34,000
for me. Okay, let's talk about some other things, other

181
00:08:34,320 --> 00:08:36,600
iconic things I saw in the trailer. All Right, we've

182
00:08:36,639 --> 00:08:39,519
got the aileron roll right out of the gate, and

183
00:08:39,799 --> 00:08:42,440
it's an F fourteen Tomcat, which is what they used

184
00:08:42,559 --> 00:08:44,759
in eighty six. Right, that's what those guys are flying. Well,

185
00:08:44,759 --> 00:08:46,679
the Navy doesn't have those anymore.

186
00:08:46,720 --> 00:08:49,120
Speaker 3: These are all decommissions, so that is a big question,

187
00:08:49,279 --> 00:08:52,600
like is he doing a flashback or is this like

188
00:08:52,639 --> 00:08:55,639
one of the enemies because Iran, who we've sold the

189
00:08:55,639 --> 00:08:57,080
Tomcats too, is still using it.

190
00:08:57,120 --> 00:08:59,960
Speaker 2: So I don't know if Iran is the unknown enemy

191
00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:02,799
out there. But it's interesting that we're seeing a Tomcat

192
00:09:03,080 --> 00:09:05,120
first jet that we see in the trailer.

193
00:09:05,159 --> 00:09:08,039
Speaker 3: Okay, I didn't even notice that. Okay, we've got a

194
00:09:08,080 --> 00:09:13,840
descending barrel roll. Nice another nice someone right going fuzzy? Okay,

195
00:09:14,679 --> 00:09:19,440
it's spit take man. Oh, Spita, I thought you couldn't

196
00:09:19,480 --> 00:09:21,600
give yourself your calls? Right, I did it?

197
00:09:21,759 --> 00:09:24,759
Speaker 2: That was David right, David Wright and James West's work

198
00:09:24,799 --> 00:09:25,879
together to get spit take.

199
00:09:25,919 --> 00:09:28,600
Speaker 3: Okay, I like it better than Fuzzy.

200
00:09:29,960 --> 00:09:33,159
Speaker 2: Okay, So they did the rolling scissors, which I remember

201
00:09:33,200 --> 00:09:35,519
from the commentary that was one of the most difficult

202
00:09:35,519 --> 00:09:37,759
things to capture in the first one. And they've got

203
00:09:37,759 --> 00:09:40,240
the rolling scissors in there. They've got the missing Man

204
00:09:40,279 --> 00:09:43,679
formation going over as they have the funeral, and that's

205
00:09:43,720 --> 00:09:45,080
another thing. Who's gonna die?

206
00:09:45,399 --> 00:09:47,600
Speaker 3: Right? Is it Iceman? Is he the one that dies?

207
00:09:47,720 --> 00:09:48,000
Is it?

208
00:09:48,080 --> 00:09:50,039
Speaker 2: We don't know one of the guys. I mean, something's

209
00:09:50,120 --> 00:09:53,039
going on where somebody dies. Okay, you want my opinion, Yeah,

210
00:09:53,120 --> 00:09:53,519
go for it.

211
00:09:53,639 --> 00:09:58,000
Speaker 3: My opinion is it's either Viper, huh or it's Iceman. Right,

212
00:09:58,080 --> 00:10:00,240
it has to have meaning to the audience. I think

213
00:10:00,279 --> 00:10:02,840
they've got to pull somebody from the old movie. Yeah,

214
00:10:02,919 --> 00:10:04,799
those two guys make the most sense to me. They do.

215
00:10:04,919 --> 00:10:06,919
Speaker 2: And it would be terrible to do Gester because somebody

216
00:10:06,919 --> 00:10:08,000
would be like Gester's dead.

217
00:10:10,200 --> 00:10:10,519
Speaker 3: Yeah.

218
00:10:12,879 --> 00:10:15,279
Speaker 2: Okay, So we talked a little bit about them having

219
00:10:15,320 --> 00:10:17,399
to get into shape, but let's talk about the aerial

220
00:10:17,440 --> 00:10:18,679
training that these actors had to do.

221
00:10:18,840 --> 00:10:21,919
Speaker 3: This movie was shot with cameras in cockpits. Okay, this

222
00:10:21,960 --> 00:10:26,759
is actual shots from jets. Tom Cruise insisted this is

223
00:10:26,799 --> 00:10:28,559
not CGI stuff, right.

224
00:10:28,799 --> 00:10:33,320
Speaker 2: And let's be specific here. These are specially made Imax cameras,

225
00:10:33,480 --> 00:10:37,000
Like they are Imax cameras a little smaller than like

226
00:10:37,039 --> 00:10:39,799
a tissue box that they can put six of them

227
00:10:39,840 --> 00:10:42,480
in different spots on the jet to get those shots.

228
00:10:42,519 --> 00:10:45,159
I mean that's incredible. Yeah, that is incredible.

229
00:10:45,159 --> 00:10:46,879
Speaker 3: So since they were going to be in jets, they

230
00:10:46,919 --> 00:10:48,919
had to know what to do if something happened and

231
00:10:48,960 --> 00:10:50,679
they crashed or whatever. So they had to go through

232
00:10:50,720 --> 00:10:54,360
this intense navy training for like three months. You know,

233
00:10:54,399 --> 00:10:56,519
what happens if you have to eject, what happens if

234
00:10:56,559 --> 00:10:58,480
you land in the water, what happens? You know, you

235
00:10:58,519 --> 00:10:59,720
got to get out of your seat belt and all

236
00:10:59,720 --> 00:11:02,240
this sudd stuff. The actual actors had to go through

237
00:11:02,279 --> 00:11:04,279
all this stuff, and you can see it on their

238
00:11:04,279 --> 00:11:06,559
faces when they're pulling g's. You can't fake that.

239
00:11:06,759 --> 00:11:09,399
Speaker 2: They have to run the cameras like when they're up there,

240
00:11:09,440 --> 00:11:11,679
they have to be that they they become actor and

241
00:11:11,759 --> 00:11:13,919
director at the same time, because there's only so much

242
00:11:13,960 --> 00:11:16,080
that you can do. So they've got to not only

243
00:11:16,240 --> 00:11:18,440
endure all of those g's, they've not only got to

244
00:11:18,480 --> 00:11:20,480
stay in character, but they've got to make sure that

245
00:11:20,519 --> 00:11:22,919
they're in the frame properly, and that what's you know,

246
00:11:22,960 --> 00:11:24,559
that the light is hitting them on the right side

247
00:11:24,600 --> 00:11:27,039
before they are rolling these things. I mean, it's it's

248
00:11:27,240 --> 00:11:29,960
an amazing bit of work that all of these actors

249
00:11:29,960 --> 00:11:33,080
who are in these planes have done. And Tom Cruise,

250
00:11:33,360 --> 00:11:36,320
He's like, before we even start, I'm putting you through

251
00:11:36,440 --> 00:11:40,240
an aviation training regiment, right. He started in a single

252
00:11:40,320 --> 00:11:43,600
engine to build their like spatial awareness once they're up

253
00:11:43,600 --> 00:11:46,320
in the air, and then went to an L thirty

254
00:11:46,440 --> 00:11:49,600
nine so that they could feel the aerobatics type of

255
00:11:49,639 --> 00:11:52,120
feelings when you do sure when you're doing jet stuff, right,

256
00:11:52,320 --> 00:11:56,000
And then the F eighteen launching off an aircraft carrier.

257
00:11:56,200 --> 00:11:59,200
Speaker 3: Dude, that F eighteen is no joke, man, No, no

258
00:12:00,159 --> 00:12:00,639
talk about that.

259
00:12:00,679 --> 00:12:03,320
Speaker 2: So the you know opening scene again once again, you've

260
00:12:03,320 --> 00:12:07,440
got these two F eighteens that are super close to

261
00:12:07,519 --> 00:12:10,240
each other, right, They're probably as close as you can

262
00:12:10,320 --> 00:12:13,679
get and be within the rules of combat training. And

263
00:12:13,720 --> 00:12:17,080
then all of a sudden, Maverick shoots up between them,

264
00:12:17,080 --> 00:12:19,279
which against the rules, right, You're not allowed to get

265
00:12:19,320 --> 00:12:19,720
that close.

266
00:12:19,759 --> 00:12:23,200
Speaker 3: But Maverick is Maverick. Maverick you know, cannot be teamed.

267
00:12:23,120 --> 00:12:26,960
Speaker 2: Right, So Maverick is still being Maverick in this particular movie.

268
00:12:27,120 --> 00:12:29,039
Speaker 3: You see the clip where he's like, all right, Maverick,

269
00:12:29,039 --> 00:12:32,600
don't get fired on the first day.

270
00:12:32,720 --> 00:12:35,480
Speaker 2: Yep, And you've got John Hamm is obviously a guy

271
00:12:35,519 --> 00:12:36,960
who's ready to get rid of Maverick.

272
00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:40,200
Speaker 3: He is he's the enemy general or whatever he is.

273
00:12:40,559 --> 00:12:42,679
Speaker 2: I'm not sure what his rank is, but he's obviously

274
00:12:42,720 --> 00:12:45,240
the guy who is ready to have Maverick out of there.

275
00:12:45,279 --> 00:12:47,039
Speaker 3: So let me just say this up front. So there's

276
00:12:47,080 --> 00:12:50,240
a lot there's like misinformation on the top gun Maverick movies.

277
00:12:50,320 --> 00:12:52,519
So like I wanted to research it, h I didn't

278
00:12:52,559 --> 00:12:53,960
want to learn too much because I don't want to

279
00:12:53,960 --> 00:12:56,960
spoil the movie for myself, right, right, So I'm coming

280
00:12:57,000 --> 00:13:00,519
across like multiple characters for actors, and they've done a

281
00:13:00,519 --> 00:13:03,000
great job of keeping this sort of under wraps. Yeah.

282
00:13:03,159 --> 00:13:06,799
Imagine doing the most anticipated movie, like sequel movie in

283
00:13:06,879 --> 00:13:09,639
thirty years, right, and having to not talk about it

284
00:13:09,679 --> 00:13:13,480
for four years. Right. So John Hamm's character I show

285
00:13:13,679 --> 00:13:16,240
is cyclone. That's his call sign, all right. I have

286
00:13:16,360 --> 00:13:18,360
also seen it listed that he's Merlin.

287
00:13:18,519 --> 00:13:22,559
Speaker 2: What Yeah, that does make sense? Well, I know, okay, Yeah,

288
00:13:22,600 --> 00:13:24,879
I mean why wouldn't they just get Tim Robbins to

289
00:13:24,879 --> 00:13:27,799
play that part? Well, exactly, there's no Tim Robbins. There's

290
00:13:27,799 --> 00:13:31,559
no Kelly McGillis. Right, there's no Meg Ryan. Right, there's

291
00:13:31,559 --> 00:13:34,440
no Tom Skarett. Right, there's no Rick Krossovich. There's no

292
00:13:34,519 --> 00:13:38,080
Rick Krossovitch, there's no Michael Ironside's. Yeah, so we're pretty

293
00:13:38,120 --> 00:13:41,120
well starting fresh. Although I think that, like I show

294
00:13:41,200 --> 00:13:45,120
that maybe Merlin's in this movie, Sundown Slider, Charlie Viper, Hmmm.

295
00:13:45,320 --> 00:13:48,000
I will be interested to see which of these characters

296
00:13:48,120 --> 00:13:50,919
make an appearance. Yeah, this will be exciting. The director said,

297
00:13:50,960 --> 00:13:53,000
you know when they when people were like, hey, you know,

298
00:13:53,039 --> 00:13:56,200
you didn't even call Kelly McGillis. Yeah, and you didn't

299
00:13:56,200 --> 00:13:58,559
even call Meg Ryan. He was like, hey, you know,

300
00:13:58,639 --> 00:14:01,039
this is just a new story. Not everything has to

301
00:14:01,080 --> 00:14:02,960
look back at the old story. This is a new

302
00:14:03,039 --> 00:14:05,759
story with new characters, and some are the same and

303
00:14:05,960 --> 00:14:07,519
some just don't belong in the story, you know.

304
00:14:07,639 --> 00:14:10,159
Speaker 3: So I feel bad for Kelly McGillis.

305
00:14:10,480 --> 00:14:14,639
Speaker 2: Well, Kelly McGillis is living in a lug, having a happy,

306
00:14:14,879 --> 00:14:18,840
quiet life, teaching theater and film at a local school.

307
00:14:19,279 --> 00:14:21,440
Speaker 3: She's happy. I mean she didn't.

308
00:14:21,679 --> 00:14:25,399
Speaker 2: She kind of grew tired of the constant Hollywood image

309
00:14:25,600 --> 00:14:28,840
and trying to live that lifestyle. She wanted to go

310
00:14:28,879 --> 00:14:32,080
spend time with her kids and enjoy them. And I

311
00:14:32,399 --> 00:14:33,279
can't blame her for that.

312
00:14:33,279 --> 00:14:37,039
Speaker 3: That's absolutely not more power to her. But I've seen

313
00:14:37,200 --> 00:14:41,759
more things on Facebook of look, how fat key. That's terrible.

314
00:14:41,799 --> 00:14:44,039
That is terrible. That's wrong. Okay, that's wrong. Okay. So

315
00:14:44,120 --> 00:14:46,440
let's talk about cast for just a second. So Tom

316
00:14:46,559 --> 00:14:51,360
Cruise returns as Maverick. Obviously, he's actually older than Tom

317
00:14:51,399 --> 00:14:55,080
Scarett was in Top Gun. That's crazy, right, he's older

318
00:14:55,080 --> 00:14:58,200
than her. He's a viper. Yeah. So Tom Cruise right

319
00:14:58,240 --> 00:15:01,519
now is fifty nine. Yeah, which is older than Tom

320
00:15:01,519 --> 00:15:04,879
Skarett was when he played Viper in the original Top Gun.

321
00:15:04,960 --> 00:15:07,639
Speaker 2: Right, Tom Cruise aged a little bit better than Tom

322
00:15:07,679 --> 00:15:11,840
Skarett did. Dude, No offense, No offense to Tom Garrett.

323
00:15:11,840 --> 00:15:14,559
I'm just saying Tom Cruise looks the same. Like I

324
00:15:14,600 --> 00:15:17,759
heard the John Hamm interview and he was like, somehow

325
00:15:17,759 --> 00:15:19,639
Tom Cruise like stay in the same spot and I

326
00:15:19,679 --> 00:15:21,399
passed him. Like I didn't just pass him, I like

327
00:15:21,480 --> 00:15:21,879
zoomed by.

328
00:15:22,960 --> 00:15:26,799
Speaker 3: Hey, listen, Tom Cruise and Jennifer Connelly have that rare gene.

329
00:15:26,840 --> 00:15:30,879
There's stone age, yeah, and probably hard work and good

330
00:15:31,039 --> 00:15:33,679
you know, medical help probably so probably that, you know,

331
00:15:33,840 --> 00:15:36,159
lots of time in the gym that I haven't been

332
00:15:36,159 --> 00:15:41,200
putting in. So Tom Cruise plays Maverick okay, okay, Jennifer

333
00:15:41,240 --> 00:15:45,279
Connelly plays Penny Benjamin. R Okay. Does that name stand

334
00:15:45,320 --> 00:15:50,320
out to you? Yeah, Admiral's daughter. For those of you

335
00:15:50,360 --> 00:15:53,080
who don't remember, when Maverick and Goose are getting balled

336
00:15:53,120 --> 00:15:56,279
out by Stinger for going to rescue Cougar at the

337
00:15:56,360 --> 00:15:59,159
very beginning of Top Gun nineteen eighty six, Stinger's bawling

338
00:15:59,240 --> 00:16:01,159
him out for all kinds of stuff, you know, put

339
00:16:01,200 --> 00:16:04,159
in hack twice by me, one high Speed fly By

340
00:16:04,399 --> 00:16:08,279
and one Addmiral's daughter and Goose Lan's. Everyone goes Penny

341
00:16:08,279 --> 00:16:12,879
Benjamin and Tom Goods like, I'm not sure right right, Well,

342
00:16:12,879 --> 00:16:15,840
Penny Benjamin. As soon as I heard Jennifer Connelly is

343
00:16:15,840 --> 00:16:18,600
Penny Benjamin, I'm like, crap, that's from the first movie.

344
00:16:18,639 --> 00:16:20,919
What a great tie in. Yeah, I get to meet

345
00:16:20,960 --> 00:16:26,360
her now. Then Miles Teller plays Rooster. He's actually Goose's son. Well,

346
00:16:26,399 --> 00:16:29,559
he doesn't have sweet great balls of Fire feelings for Maverick,

347
00:16:29,600 --> 00:16:31,440
he does not, but man, he pulls off the look.

348
00:16:31,840 --> 00:16:35,320
Speaker 2: He's got the perfect mustache sache, He's got the right haircut,

349
00:16:35,360 --> 00:16:38,360
he's got the right clothes. They nailed Goose's look for Rooster.

350
00:16:38,519 --> 00:16:40,960
Speaker 3: They did you know that Miles Teller was actually born

351
00:16:41,000 --> 00:16:44,240
in nineteen eighty seven. He was born after Top Gun

352
00:16:44,279 --> 00:16:44,600
came out.

353
00:16:44,720 --> 00:16:47,080
Speaker 2: So but not bad because in the movie Top Gun

354
00:16:47,159 --> 00:16:51,840
you see Meg Ryan and Anthony Edwards have a kid. Yeah,

355
00:16:51,879 --> 00:16:55,159
and he's pretty young. I mean he's like, yeah, you know, yeah,

356
00:16:55,200 --> 00:16:58,360
So that's that's definitely believable. That could work, Yeah, for sure.

357
00:16:58,519 --> 00:17:01,799
Speaker 3: And so there's some bad blood between Rooster and Maverick.

358
00:17:01,919 --> 00:17:04,359
I think he even says, my dad believed in you.

359
00:17:04,960 --> 00:17:07,519
I'm not going to make the same mistake. Lots of tention.

360
00:17:07,720 --> 00:17:09,839
I'm excited for that part of it as well. Yes,

361
00:17:09,920 --> 00:17:13,480
who else you got? Okay, Monica Barbara, she is playing

362
00:17:13,519 --> 00:17:19,960
Phoenix's a female pilot. Yes, so there's that, which is new.

363
00:17:20,079 --> 00:17:23,119
Speaker 2: There were no female cast members in the original Top Gun.

364
00:17:23,200 --> 00:17:25,160
She's out there, and from what I can gather, I

365
00:17:25,160 --> 00:17:26,799
don't think there's going to be some kind of romance

366
00:17:26,839 --> 00:17:30,240
story with her, which is again accurate, because one of

367
00:17:30,279 --> 00:17:33,039
the deals with Kelly mcgillis's character was she couldn't be

368
00:17:33,079 --> 00:17:35,160
a part of the military because the military were not

369
00:17:35,200 --> 00:17:38,279
allowed to fraightenize. And I think if the Navy's behind

370
00:17:38,279 --> 00:17:40,799
this like they were on the first one, they're probably

371
00:17:40,799 --> 00:17:42,680
going to stick to the stick to those guns if

372
00:17:42,720 --> 00:17:42,960
you will.

373
00:17:43,039 --> 00:17:44,960
Speaker 3: I think you're right. We got Val Kilma returning in

374
00:17:45,000 --> 00:17:48,319
as Iceman. We got Glenn Powell as Hangman. He's the

375
00:17:48,359 --> 00:17:50,839
guy that we talked about who they went out for

376
00:17:50,880 --> 00:17:54,240
milkshakes and tater tots after the football scene. I think

377
00:17:54,279 --> 00:17:57,680
he's going to be the sort of iceman character in

378
00:17:57,720 --> 00:17:58,119
this movie.

379
00:17:58,200 --> 00:18:01,039
Speaker 2: Yeah, it looks like in the train it looks like

380
00:18:01,160 --> 00:18:04,920
that rooster is like trying to go after him inside

381
00:18:04,960 --> 00:18:09,440
the classroom quote unquote classroom, which again is still they're

382
00:18:09,480 --> 00:18:11,680
doing it out on like the deck or whatever. It's

383
00:18:11,759 --> 00:18:12,759
not in an actual.

384
00:18:12,480 --> 00:18:15,440
Speaker 3: Classroom, of course, but it's beautiful hang that American flag

385
00:18:15,480 --> 00:18:18,440
while in class, right. And you also have John Hamm

386
00:18:18,440 --> 00:18:21,880
playing Cyclone. As we said, Ed Harris. His title is

387
00:18:21,960 --> 00:18:24,880
listed as Rear Admiral. Uh huh. But I've also heard

388
00:18:25,200 --> 00:18:30,440
maybe Jester okay, And then you've got Jean Louisa Kelly. Okay, okay,

389
00:18:30,519 --> 00:18:33,119
you recognize her from Uncle Buck and yes, dear, yeah,

390
00:18:33,160 --> 00:18:37,599
she was the she was the niece on Uncle Buck. Yes, Tia, Yeah,

391
00:18:37,640 --> 00:18:40,519
she's playing Sarah Kazanski. Oh, so we think this is

392
00:18:40,559 --> 00:18:42,359
a wife, maybe her sister.

393
00:18:43,000 --> 00:18:46,000
Speaker 2: I think there's a wife, yeah, which that kind of

394
00:18:46,079 --> 00:18:48,119
is leaning to me like it's going to be Iceman

395
00:18:48,160 --> 00:18:49,079
who's in the coffin.

396
00:18:49,160 --> 00:18:49,799
Speaker 3: I think so too.

397
00:18:49,960 --> 00:18:53,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, Okay, We've got several writers on this one, yes, Okay.

398
00:18:54,680 --> 00:18:59,000
Story wise, we've got Justin Marx who was the creator

399
00:18:59,039 --> 00:19:01,640
of Counterpart, that JK. Simmons in it, and then the

400
00:19:01,680 --> 00:19:04,599
other As far as story goes, we have Peter Craig,

401
00:19:04,839 --> 00:19:08,160
who we talked about on our episode on The Batman. Yes,

402
00:19:08,160 --> 00:19:10,799
it was Peter Craig who went and worked with Matt

403
00:19:10,839 --> 00:19:13,720
Reeves for the script for The Batman. He has also

404
00:19:13,920 --> 00:19:17,000
done Bad Boys for Life, He's done two of the

405
00:19:17,079 --> 00:19:20,440
Hunger Games movies. He's done The Town Ben Affleck Living right.

406
00:19:21,119 --> 00:19:24,000
So I'm looking at him and he's Sally Field's son.

407
00:19:24,799 --> 00:19:28,759
I was like, what what Sally Field son is writing

408
00:19:28,799 --> 00:19:31,160
some of the best movies to come out in the

409
00:19:31,240 --> 00:19:31,960
last ten years.

410
00:19:32,079 --> 00:19:37,720
Speaker 3: Little Frog. We got a couple of other guys who

411
00:19:37,799 --> 00:19:41,279
are involved with the script. We've got Christopher McQuire who

412
00:19:41,519 --> 00:19:44,519
helped with Mission Impossible, Fallout, did The Edge of Tomorrow,

413
00:19:44,559 --> 00:19:46,240
did the usual Suspects, so.

414
00:19:46,640 --> 00:19:50,200
Speaker 2: A one writer there. We've got Aaron Warren Singer who

415
00:19:50,200 --> 00:19:53,720
did Only The Brave, the International and American Hustle. We've

416
00:19:53,759 --> 00:19:57,640
got Aaron Krueger who did The Ring and Arlington Road

417
00:19:57,759 --> 00:20:00,440
and Scream three. Scream three was the worst them, but

418
00:20:00,759 --> 00:20:03,960
hopefully he's improved since then. Okay, but a lot of

419
00:20:04,039 --> 00:20:07,960
writers on this one, But I think the most interesting

420
00:20:08,119 --> 00:20:11,319
thing is our director. Before I get into the director,

421
00:20:11,480 --> 00:20:13,240
I want to talk one more thing about the trailer,

422
00:20:13,240 --> 00:20:15,279
all right, Yeah, So at the end of the trailer,

423
00:20:15,359 --> 00:20:17,839
you've got this scene where Maverick is in what looks

424
00:20:17,839 --> 00:20:20,720
to be a space helmet and he's in like this black,

425
00:20:21,039 --> 00:20:25,200
otherworldly looking jet and it shows this guy standing outside

426
00:20:25,200 --> 00:20:28,720
of a little shack as the jet zooms by, the

427
00:20:29,200 --> 00:20:32,799
dust billows up, and yet the roof literally comes off

428
00:20:32,839 --> 00:20:34,279
of the shack and slams back down.

429
00:20:34,359 --> 00:20:34,640
Speaker 3: Yeah.

430
00:20:34,680 --> 00:20:37,640
Speaker 2: So I'm like, what kind of plane was that? And

431
00:20:37,680 --> 00:20:40,119
I had heard like, is it a SpaceX thing? Because

432
00:20:40,119 --> 00:20:42,680
I know that Jerry Bruckheimer and Tom Cruise had talked

433
00:20:42,680 --> 00:20:46,319
to Elon Musk about SpaceX stuff. It's not that, okay,

434
00:20:46,359 --> 00:20:48,119
you guys ready, he Here's what it is, all right.

435
00:20:48,920 --> 00:20:54,839
This is a not yet released plane called the Hypersonic

436
00:20:55,240 --> 00:21:00,119
dark Star. It is an SR seventy two. It is

437
00:21:00,160 --> 00:21:03,640
the follow up to the SR seventy one Blackbird, which

438
00:21:03,759 --> 00:21:08,799
was designed by Lockheed Martin and Joseph Kaczinski and Jerry

439
00:21:08,839 --> 00:21:12,960
Bruckheimer got together with the guys from Lockheed Martin and

440
00:21:13,319 --> 00:21:16,640
they are the ones that created this simulation of this

441
00:21:17,079 --> 00:21:18,400
Dark Star plane.

442
00:21:18,559 --> 00:21:22,119
Speaker 3: What it is awesome and Jerry Bruckheimer, whatever they did,

443
00:21:22,519 --> 00:21:26,640
Jerry Bruckheimer said, it was so real. It was so

444
00:21:26,839 --> 00:21:27,759
real looking.

445
00:21:27,799 --> 00:21:32,000
Speaker 2: That China changed their satellite direction in order to get

446
00:21:32,000 --> 00:21:36,279
a better view of their fake plane like they thought

447
00:21:36,319 --> 00:21:38,279
it was. They thought it was the real thing. Skunk

448
00:21:38,319 --> 00:21:40,119
Works was the name of the company that were the

449
00:21:40,119 --> 00:21:43,440
guys from Lockheed Martin's who built and designed this mock

450
00:21:43,519 --> 00:21:48,920
up Dark Star Hypersonic SR seventy two. Very very cool.

451
00:21:48,960 --> 00:21:50,440
I'm excited to see what they do with that. It

452
00:21:50,640 --> 00:21:52,119
was not just for the trailer.

453
00:21:52,440 --> 00:21:54,640
Speaker 3: Dark Star sounds like a new gi Joe toy I

454
00:21:54,680 --> 00:21:57,079
mean Dark Star was the name of the movie that

455
00:21:57,400 --> 00:22:01,759
John car Carpenter, Yes, John Carpenter and Dan O'Bannon from

00:22:04,720 --> 00:22:06,799
right way to go. Okay, I just want to touch.

00:22:06,880 --> 00:22:10,599
Speaker 2: Cinematographer is Claudio Miranda. He did Life of Pie, he

00:23:17,680 --> 00:23:23,039
Speaker 2: Yes, yes, let's go. That is freaking cool. So, Joseph Kaczinski,

480
00:23:23,119 --> 00:23:24,319
I got some story here.

481
00:23:24,359 --> 00:23:26,400
Speaker 3: Wait before you get in, Before you get into it.

482
00:23:26,440 --> 00:23:28,160
I called you the other day and I said, you

483
00:23:28,519 --> 00:23:31,880
have got to watch Oblivion. It's one of the best

484
00:23:32,119 --> 00:23:34,200
movies in the two thousands. You know, we did that

485
00:23:34,200 --> 00:23:36,720
episode a couple of months ago where we ranked the

486
00:23:36,759 --> 00:23:39,519
best movies since two thousand. Yeah, Oblivion did not make

487
00:23:39,559 --> 00:23:42,119
my top ten, but looking back on it, it probably

488
00:23:42,160 --> 00:23:44,759
should have. Okay, did you watch that movie? I still

489
00:23:44,759 --> 00:23:46,839
have not seen it. I've been begging Gayleb to watch

490
00:23:46,880 --> 00:23:48,240
it with me, and it's just like you know, with

491
00:23:48,279 --> 00:23:50,640
your kids, it's like, I want to watch it. No, thanks, dad,

492
00:23:50,839 --> 00:23:52,839
no thanks? Oh my gosh, it's so good. So, if

493
00:23:52,839 --> 00:23:56,319
you haven't seen Oblivion, Tom Cruise is the star Oga,

494
00:23:56,400 --> 00:24:02,039
Carolinko Hore Schmokes, and then of course Joseph Kazinski directing.

495
00:24:02,160 --> 00:24:05,200
It's awesome. Yes, so tell me.

496
00:24:05,240 --> 00:24:08,440
Speaker 2: About what you learned about how many hours of footage

497
00:24:08,440 --> 00:24:08,960
you've got on this.

498
00:24:09,319 --> 00:24:13,920
Speaker 3: They shot eight hundred hours in order to make this movie.

499
00:24:14,119 --> 00:24:15,319
Eight hundred hours.

500
00:24:15,359 --> 00:24:18,839
Speaker 2: That's nuts. So I was thinking about this when you

501
00:24:18,880 --> 00:24:21,160
told me that. I'm like, okay, So they shot that much.

502
00:24:21,200 --> 00:24:23,160
You don't have time in a normal setting to go

503
00:24:23,200 --> 00:24:25,839
through that. They've had four years, I mean nearly four years.

504
00:24:25,920 --> 00:24:28,160
They've had nearly four years to go through all of

505
00:24:28,160 --> 00:24:30,920
this and really tweak the heck out of this movie

506
00:24:30,960 --> 00:24:31,720
if they wanted to.

507
00:24:32,160 --> 00:24:33,519
Speaker 3: So you really are.

508
00:24:33,440 --> 00:24:36,000
Speaker 2: Going to get the best of the best of eight

509
00:24:36,079 --> 00:24:39,359
hundred hours of footage, which, as we mentioned, are shot

510
00:24:39,480 --> 00:24:40,759
on Imax cameras.

511
00:24:40,920 --> 00:24:43,599
Speaker 3: The whole movie is shot on Imax digital cameras. The

512
00:24:43,640 --> 00:24:46,480
original Top Gun was shot on thirty five millimeters. Yeah,

513
00:24:46,519 --> 00:24:48,799
when you think about the eight hundred hours in order

514
00:24:48,920 --> 00:24:51,160
to properly edit, and we know this because we edit

515
00:24:51,200 --> 00:24:55,079
our show. Yeah, you have to watch to see what's good. Yeah,

516
00:24:55,200 --> 00:24:57,640
eight hundred hours. You'd have to spend one hundred days,

517
00:24:57,680 --> 00:25:00,279
eight hours a day just to watch. That's not the

518
00:25:00,319 --> 00:25:02,160
amount of edything they had to do on this is

519
00:25:02,559 --> 00:25:06,119
beyond me. Right, before you go into your Joseph Kazinski story, Yes,

520
00:25:06,440 --> 00:25:08,359
you threw that nugget at me that he's got Twister

521
00:25:08,440 --> 00:25:10,839
maybe coming up on the horizon, which sounds great. I'll

522
00:25:11,279 --> 00:25:15,279
count me in, right, Also possible remakes that he's in

523
00:25:15,400 --> 00:25:18,160
charge of. You ready for this, Yeah, if you are

524
00:25:18,160 --> 00:25:21,839
in a seventies, eighties nineties movie buff, listen up. Yeah,

525
00:25:21,880 --> 00:25:26,799
he might be working on Logan's Run. Oh wow, the

526
00:25:26,839 --> 00:25:31,200
black Hole, Oh wow, the Twilight Zone. Okay, that is

527
00:25:31,240 --> 00:25:34,519
freaking awesome. Keep you go, and the movie version of

528
00:25:34,599 --> 00:25:38,559
the video game Grand Treatsman. Wow, this guy is somebody

529
00:25:38,599 --> 00:25:40,599
to keep your eye on. The black Hole. Scared the

530
00:25:40,640 --> 00:25:42,279
holy crap out of me as a kid.

531
00:25:42,400 --> 00:25:44,079
Speaker 2: If they've got to have the scene with the book

532
00:25:44,079 --> 00:25:48,079
in the saw is all I'm saying, absolutely, or.

533
00:25:48,039 --> 00:25:49,480
Speaker 3: Make it better. I don't know how you went up

534
00:25:49,519 --> 00:25:51,400
that one, but that's yeah. Okay.

535
00:25:51,440 --> 00:25:53,960
Speaker 2: So let me tell you a little bit about Joseph Kazinski. A. Right, yeah,

536
00:25:54,000 --> 00:25:56,559
So this is a this is a prime example of

537
00:25:56,720 --> 00:25:58,640
you don't have to go to USC's film school to

538
00:25:58,680 --> 00:26:01,359
become a director of some monumental movies.

539
00:26:01,440 --> 00:26:01,640
Speaker 3: Right.

540
00:26:01,839 --> 00:26:07,559
Speaker 2: Okay, So he started off at Stanford studying jazz and engineering.

541
00:26:07,759 --> 00:26:09,160
Speaker 3: Really, yeah, tell me more.

542
00:26:09,319 --> 00:26:12,039
Speaker 2: So he is an engineer student. He goes to this

543
00:26:12,119 --> 00:26:15,680
product design class and at some point the professor kind

544
00:26:15,680 --> 00:26:17,640
of pulls him aside and says, hey, you get a

545
00:26:17,680 --> 00:26:21,240
really good eye for design, maybe that should be the

546
00:26:21,279 --> 00:26:24,799
thing that you pursue. And so he decides to study

547
00:26:25,079 --> 00:26:28,240
architecture as a grad student. And he thought that was

548
00:26:28,279 --> 00:26:29,960
going to be the best way to kind of combine

549
00:26:30,000 --> 00:26:33,160
these artistic interests and the design and architecture interest that

550
00:26:33,200 --> 00:26:35,720
he has. And so he goes over to friend's house

551
00:26:35,759 --> 00:26:37,920
he's trying to decide where he wants to go to school,

552
00:26:38,000 --> 00:26:41,119
and on the friend's wall he sees this Marcel Broyer

553
00:26:41,240 --> 00:26:43,880
chair and he's he finds out from his friend, Hey,

554
00:26:43,880 --> 00:26:46,480
that's my older brother did this thing. He goes to

555
00:26:46,559 --> 00:26:50,319
Columbia at the School of Architecture and he's like school architecture, really,

556
00:26:50,359 --> 00:26:52,240
He's like, yeah, that's the way to do it. Over there,

557
00:26:52,359 --> 00:26:56,720
they are doing amazing new things with computer that beyond AutoCAD,

558
00:26:56,839 --> 00:26:58,480
and so he's like, Okay, I think this is the

559
00:26:58,559 --> 00:27:00,200
way I'm going to go, and so becomes he was

560
00:27:00,200 --> 00:27:03,599
a grad student at Columbia in School of Architecture. He

561
00:27:03,640 --> 00:27:07,119
actually finishes and is teaching. He's a professor of architecture.

562
00:27:07,480 --> 00:27:10,599
This guy's like our age, right, yeah. Okay, So he

563
00:27:11,240 --> 00:27:13,599
realizes that this is not the way he wants to

564
00:27:13,599 --> 00:27:16,480
spend his life, and so after school he's like, I'm

565
00:27:16,519 --> 00:27:17,119
gonna start.

566
00:27:16,920 --> 00:27:19,759
Speaker 3: Making short films. Okay, So he starts making.

567
00:27:19,480 --> 00:27:23,920
Speaker 2: Short films with his computer and distributing them on the internet. Well,

568
00:27:23,960 --> 00:27:27,519
this is like eighteen ninety six, I mean, this is

569
00:27:27,559 --> 00:27:30,319
who this is. This is pre YouTube, this is pre

570
00:27:30,759 --> 00:27:31,680
I mean we're talking.

571
00:27:31,440 --> 00:27:33,839
Speaker 3: About AOL dial up at this point. Wow.

572
00:27:33,880 --> 00:27:36,519
Speaker 2: And this guy's making short films. And so he starts

573
00:27:36,559 --> 00:27:39,759
this little company with a friend of his called KD Labs,

574
00:27:39,960 --> 00:27:43,200
and their tagline is we are interested in exploring the

575
00:27:43,240 --> 00:27:48,880
blurred boundaries between architecture, film and graphics. So these short

576
00:27:48,920 --> 00:27:52,240
films get out on the Internet and he gets invited

577
00:27:52,279 --> 00:27:54,720
out to go to La. He gets hooked up with

578
00:27:55,000 --> 00:27:59,240
David Fincher in LA in the nineties. Wow, who gets

579
00:27:59,279 --> 00:28:04,039
him a job an advertising production company called Anonymous Content

580
00:28:04,519 --> 00:28:06,839
and he starts doing commercials.

581
00:28:07,079 --> 00:28:08,519
Speaker 3: Told you, dude, that's the way it.

582
00:28:08,480 --> 00:28:12,079
Speaker 2: Is, Like, I mean, Tony Scott, Ridley Scott. Making commercials

583
00:28:12,240 --> 00:28:15,039
leads to movies. This guy, So let me talk to

584
00:28:15,039 --> 00:28:16,799
you about the commercials that he's done. I sent you

585
00:28:16,839 --> 00:28:19,559
the Sab commercial, which you know again Tony Scott. So

586
00:28:19,599 --> 00:28:21,119
he did this awesome Sab commercial.

587
00:28:21,240 --> 00:28:21,359
Speaker 3: Right.

588
00:28:21,599 --> 00:28:24,440
Speaker 2: He did Halo three Starry Night if you want to.

589
00:28:24,480 --> 00:28:27,480
If you know that commercial, it's impressive. He did the

590
00:28:27,720 --> 00:28:31,400
Chevy Baby one, he did the Gears of War Mad

591
00:28:31,480 --> 00:28:34,680
World one. He's done a ton of these awesome commercials

592
00:28:35,000 --> 00:28:38,160
and he was there whenever YouTube was new. So I

593
00:28:38,200 --> 00:28:40,200
went and I looked at it. He's got like four

594
00:28:40,279 --> 00:28:43,400
hundred and thirteen followers on his YouTube channel because he

595
00:28:43,440 --> 00:28:48,039
hasn't posted anything in thirteen years, but it's.

596
00:28:47,960 --> 00:28:49,319
Speaker 3: All of his commercials, right.

597
00:28:49,680 --> 00:28:49,880
Speaker 6: Huh.

598
00:28:50,000 --> 00:28:52,440
Speaker 2: Well, thirteen years ago is when he gets a knock

599
00:28:52,440 --> 00:28:54,839
at the door and they said, hey, we'd like you

600
00:28:54,880 --> 00:28:57,640
to do the new version of Tron for us.

601
00:28:57,680 --> 00:29:01,359
Speaker 3: Wow. What an incredible story that is. By the way, yeah,

602
00:29:01,400 --> 00:29:04,960
have you seen child Legacy? I mean I have not known. Okay,

603
00:29:05,079 --> 00:29:07,359
it's a lot like a Ridley Scott or Tony Scott movie.

604
00:29:07,359 --> 00:29:10,079
The visuals are out of this world. Right, It's a

605
00:29:10,079 --> 00:29:13,079
bit long and boring. Okay, you know right, that's kind

606
00:29:13,079 --> 00:29:15,319
of what I That's what I got. Visually stunning.

607
00:29:15,359 --> 00:29:17,359
Speaker 2: If you look at his old commercials, They are all

608
00:29:17,519 --> 00:29:21,400
obviously heavily computer and CGI driven, and he does a

609
00:29:21,400 --> 00:29:24,000
great job with it. And you are not big fans

610
00:29:24,000 --> 00:29:28,400
of CGI, but he seems like the appropriate choice in

611
00:29:28,440 --> 00:29:32,000
twenty ten to be the guy that does a movie

612
00:29:32,039 --> 00:29:34,240
where the guy's stuck inside of a video game, right, right,

613
00:29:34,359 --> 00:29:36,559
he seems to be the obvious choice for that. It

614
00:29:36,599 --> 00:29:38,359
didn't turn out as well as they wanted it to,

615
00:29:38,759 --> 00:29:40,359
but leads down some rows.

616
00:29:40,640 --> 00:29:41,319
Speaker 3: Right. Sure.

617
00:29:41,440 --> 00:29:44,240
Speaker 2: So around the same time twenty ten, he is writing

618
00:29:44,279 --> 00:29:47,440
a graphic novel as a story idea for that he has,

619
00:29:47,599 --> 00:29:51,559
and that is what becomes Oblivion. Yes, Tron was filmed

620
00:29:51,720 --> 00:29:54,880
in March of twenty twelve, released in twenty thirteen. He

621
00:29:54,960 --> 00:29:57,480
was supposed to do a third Tron, but Disney was like, no,

622
00:29:57,759 --> 00:30:00,519
this wasn't well received, We're not going to do another one. Fortunately,

623
00:30:00,640 --> 00:30:04,400
he goes on to do Oblivion. He then does Only

624
00:30:04,480 --> 00:30:08,079
The Brave, which I mean that's not a CGI movie, right,

625
00:30:08,119 --> 00:30:10,960
I mean, that's you've got some fire effects, but it's

626
00:30:11,039 --> 00:30:13,880
all very realistic. And so you can see this kind

627
00:30:13,960 --> 00:30:19,000
of gradual progression of this guy from heavy computer Sure,

628
00:30:19,440 --> 00:30:22,160
and now what we've got with top Gun Maverick is

629
00:30:22,359 --> 00:30:25,799
we don't want any appearance of CGI at all.

630
00:30:26,000 --> 00:30:26,240
Speaker 3: Yep.

631
00:30:26,480 --> 00:30:29,400
Speaker 2: And fortunately with this guy, I think he's good enough

632
00:30:29,440 --> 00:30:31,440
that if it's there, it's going to be so good

633
00:30:31,440 --> 00:30:32,279
we're not going to know it.

634
00:30:32,359 --> 00:30:34,319
Speaker 3: Well, that's the goal, right, By the way, have you

635
00:30:34,319 --> 00:30:36,960
seen Only the Brave? I have not. Let me tell

636
00:30:37,000 --> 00:30:38,640
you about it. No, please don't.

637
00:30:39,880 --> 00:30:43,759
Speaker 2: I'm talking to Jason on the phone and he's like, oh, hey, yeah,

638
00:30:43,839 --> 00:30:46,680
so and Only the Brave. This moment is so impactful,

639
00:30:46,680 --> 00:30:48,759
and it's I'm like, are you telling me what happened

640
00:30:48,799 --> 00:30:51,039
in the movie? And he's like, oh, but don't worry.

641
00:30:51,079 --> 00:30:52,200
That's not really what happened.

642
00:30:52,279 --> 00:30:55,200
Speaker 3: Is other thing. I'm like, no, stop telling me, Stop

643
00:30:55,240 --> 00:30:59,480
telling me what happens. So that is our spoiler warning, right,

644
00:30:59,519 --> 00:31:03,000
that's our warning. We will have spoilers very shortly. But

645
00:31:03,240 --> 00:31:05,480
we got just a few more couple things to talk about,

646
00:31:05,519 --> 00:31:06,839
and then we're going to go watch the movie and

647
00:31:06,880 --> 00:31:08,640
tell you what we think. Yep. Okay.

648
00:31:08,880 --> 00:31:11,240
Speaker 2: So when you were talking to me, you're like, so

649
00:31:11,440 --> 00:31:14,839
this is Joseic Kazinski's and Tom Cruise's second team up.

650
00:31:14,799 --> 00:31:18,599
Speaker 3: Together, right, yeah, Oblivion. Oblivion was first. Yes, he was

651
00:31:18,640 --> 00:31:22,799
going to do a movie called Go like hell, go

652
00:31:23,000 --> 00:31:24,559
Like Hell. I saw him on this.

653
00:31:24,599 --> 00:31:26,880
Speaker 2: It was on Comic Con and he was with the

654
00:31:26,920 --> 00:31:30,319
director of the new Jurassic World movies and Robert Rodriguez

655
00:31:30,359 --> 00:31:33,319
and him, those three guys, and they had different questions

656
00:31:33,319 --> 00:31:34,839
for him, and they're like, Hey, what's the movie that

657
00:31:34,880 --> 00:31:37,279
you were super excited about that got canned, you know,

658
00:31:37,519 --> 00:31:38,720
went into development?

659
00:31:38,759 --> 00:31:39,200
Speaker 3: Hell whatever?

660
00:31:39,200 --> 00:31:41,039
Speaker 2: It was right, and he was like, oh, well, I

661
00:31:41,079 --> 00:31:43,200
had this movie that I was going to do called

662
00:31:43,200 --> 00:31:46,720
Go Like Hell. It ended up being Ford Versus Ferrari. Oh,

663
00:31:46,920 --> 00:31:49,279
he goes yeah, we just couldn't get the budget that

664
00:31:49,319 --> 00:31:51,240
we wanted for it. And the guy's like, well, how

665
00:31:51,279 --> 00:31:53,680
close were you? And he goes, well, had Tom Cruise

666
00:31:53,720 --> 00:31:56,079
and Brad Pitt doing a table read for me. Whoa

667
00:31:57,160 --> 00:32:00,920
And the director of Jurassic Park Rustic World was.

668
00:32:00,880 --> 00:32:05,559
Speaker 3: Like, what so this is really their third team up.

669
00:32:05,559 --> 00:32:07,920
It's just that the second one didn't work out. Wow.

670
00:32:08,559 --> 00:32:11,119
You have the two guys from Interview with a Vampire

671
00:32:11,319 --> 00:32:15,519
back to do another movie. I mean wow, I mean

672
00:32:15,599 --> 00:32:17,240
two of the biggest movie stars of our time.

673
00:32:17,279 --> 00:32:20,000
Speaker 2: Really, to be honest, yeah, absolutely so. Can you imagine

674
00:32:20,000 --> 00:32:23,240
Fod versus Ferrari with Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt instead

675
00:32:23,279 --> 00:32:26,519
of Matt Damon and Christian Bale. That would have been yes, please, yeah,

676
00:32:26,720 --> 00:32:29,680
I mean talk about your recasting of movies. That would

677
00:32:29,720 --> 00:32:33,160
have been something spectacular, fantastic. I can't figure out. I

678
00:32:33,160 --> 00:32:34,920
don't know if they ended up getting more money after

679
00:32:34,960 --> 00:32:37,240
he left the project or what. But obviously they didn't

680
00:32:37,319 --> 00:32:38,680
spare expense on that movie.

681
00:32:38,720 --> 00:32:40,640
Speaker 3: That seems like a sure thing. I don't know why

682
00:32:40,640 --> 00:32:42,599
they demanded that one, but right, Okay, so you got

683
00:32:42,599 --> 00:32:44,359
anything else, tell me what you got. Okay, I want

684
00:32:44,359 --> 00:32:46,400
to add one more thing before we move into the

685
00:32:46,440 --> 00:32:49,319
spoiler zone here. Okay, I've just seen Tom Cruise out.

686
00:32:49,440 --> 00:32:51,599
You know, he's doing the publicity right now. Again, we

687
00:32:51,680 --> 00:32:54,519
haven't seen this movie just yet. Tom Cruise was asked.

688
00:32:54,640 --> 00:32:57,000
They were like, did you ever think about showing this

689
00:32:57,440 --> 00:33:01,880
streaming along with the theaters? Is never? Never, never, right?

690
00:33:02,799 --> 00:33:06,440
This is a in theater experience movie, and I really

691
00:33:06,480 --> 00:33:08,279
I give it up to him for that. Tom Cruise

692
00:33:08,400 --> 00:33:10,680
is a lot of things, but what he's really good at.

693
00:33:10,759 --> 00:33:13,839
He's a great movie star, and he is a cinema lover,

694
00:33:14,759 --> 00:33:18,720
and he is giving us a movie that deserves to

695
00:33:18,759 --> 00:33:21,519
be watched in the theater. Let me just say this.

696
00:33:21,839 --> 00:33:25,160
Speaker 2: We kind of gushed after we saw The Batman together, right,

697
00:33:25,599 --> 00:33:27,079
and we saw it in Imax.

698
00:33:27,240 --> 00:33:27,640
Speaker 3: Yeah.

699
00:33:28,079 --> 00:33:30,319
Speaker 2: Now, after that, I talked to friends who had seen

700
00:33:30,359 --> 00:33:34,319
it who were upset with the sound quality. They were like,

701
00:33:34,319 --> 00:33:36,680
I felt like they were whispering the whole time. And

702
00:33:36,920 --> 00:33:40,000
I know, as a guy who watches movies at my house,

703
00:33:40,200 --> 00:33:42,759
sometimes the loudness of the sound effects or the loudness

704
00:33:42,880 --> 00:33:45,839
of the soundtrack gets overwhelming and I feel like I

705
00:33:45,880 --> 00:33:47,880
don't want to put the subtitles on, but I can't

706
00:33:47,880 --> 00:33:51,039
hear what people are saying, and I am going deaf.

707
00:33:51,119 --> 00:33:55,559
But okay, but there's something about an Imax theater where

708
00:33:55,599 --> 00:34:00,000
the sound is so perfectly designed that I didn't even

709
00:34:00,039 --> 00:34:03,200
those weren't even thoughts that remotely occurred to me as

710
00:34:03,200 --> 00:34:05,839
we were watching it in the Imax theater. And so

711
00:34:05,920 --> 00:34:07,400
we're gonna go watch this one Imax.

712
00:34:07,960 --> 00:34:09,840
Speaker 3: I want to urge.

713
00:34:09,599 --> 00:34:12,920
Speaker 2: Anyone who can go see any movie that's big and

714
00:34:12,960 --> 00:34:15,559
beautiful like this, go see it on the Imax. And

715
00:34:15,599 --> 00:34:18,119
even if it's not this big beautiful movie, go see

716
00:34:18,159 --> 00:34:20,960
it because I think the sound design is even better

717
00:34:21,039 --> 00:34:23,960
and won't be distorted like it is on your home

718
00:34:24,000 --> 00:34:26,440
theater or if you try to stream it on HBO

719
00:34:26,519 --> 00:34:28,280
when it comes out in a month or whatever it is.

720
00:34:28,639 --> 00:34:30,000
Speaker 3: So please do this.

721
00:34:30,000 --> 00:34:32,360
Speaker 2: Movie the justice, And if you've got a four D

722
00:34:32,840 --> 00:34:35,760
theater near you, you need to go see that because

723
00:34:35,800 --> 00:34:39,320
there are moments in this movie where you're going to

724
00:34:39,400 --> 00:34:43,599
be side view in a F eighteen jet.

725
00:34:43,679 --> 00:34:46,599
Speaker 3: I mean, Hugh making my own face here. I can't

726
00:34:49,719 --> 00:34:51,440
I can't wait to go see this movie.

727
00:34:51,559 --> 00:34:54,559
Speaker 2: Yeah, and just real quick before we head to the theater.

728
00:34:54,800 --> 00:34:57,960
Everybody talks about how awesome Tom Cruise is and how

729
00:34:58,079 --> 00:35:01,480
much passion he has for all of U projects, especially

730
00:35:01,599 --> 00:35:05,639
this one. After Top Gun the original, he became a pilot.

731
00:35:05,840 --> 00:35:08,760
He owns his own planes. He was the guy giving

732
00:35:08,800 --> 00:35:12,199
instructions to these actors, and he said that this movie

733
00:35:12,679 --> 00:35:14,280
is a love letter to aviation.

734
00:35:15,000 --> 00:35:17,320
Speaker 3: I can't wait. He legitimately thought that the Navy was

735
00:35:17,320 --> 00:35:21,880
gonna let him fly an fad. No, they were like, uh,

736
00:35:21,880 --> 00:35:22,440
not so much.

737
00:35:22,559 --> 00:35:22,599
Speaker 1: No.

738
00:35:22,880 --> 00:35:26,280
Speaker 3: But he did land a helicopter at a screening just

739
00:35:26,280 --> 00:35:28,599
the other day. I saw him landed the helicopter like

740
00:35:28,639 --> 00:35:31,519
a frickin' boss. And God often went to his premiere.

741
00:35:31,599 --> 00:35:34,760
It is too exciting for us to talk anymore. Let

742
00:35:34,840 --> 00:35:38,079
us go buy our popcorn and check out this movie.

743
00:35:38,199 --> 00:35:41,239
Let's go that you are now entering the spoiler zone.

744
00:35:41,400 --> 00:35:42,079
Whoa there, buddy.

745
00:35:42,119 --> 00:35:44,320
Speaker 2: Before we jump into the spoiler zone, we have got

746
00:35:44,360 --> 00:35:47,000

set or in the recording studio, whatever movie your album

Speaker 5: And every other week on our limited series nineteen eighty six.

762
00:36:30,280 --> 00:36:32,599
We're on a mission to determine whether eighty six was

763
00:36:32,639 --> 00:36:35,559
the best year for cinema in the nineteen eighties, as

764
00:36:35,559 --> 00:36:38,280
well as decide what was the best movie of nineteen

765
00:36:38,320 --> 00:36:42,039

00:36:42,559 --> 00:36:45,679

is down in the ladies room.

774
00:37:06,239 --> 00:37:08,000
Speaker 3: Brad, you kill me, you really do?

775
00:37:09,239 --> 00:37:11,320
Speaker 5: No, no, no, no no, there's two f's in Jeff.

00:37:13,840 --> 00:37:14,960
rich in this episode.

778
00:37:14,960 --> 00:37:15,719
Speaker 3: I cannot wait.

779
00:37:15,960 --> 00:37:18,480
Speaker 2: Guys, truly great podcast that you have. Thank you very

780
00:37:18,559 --> 00:37:20,800
much for doing that for us. We look forward to

781
00:37:21,039 --> 00:37:22,599
listening to what you guys have to say once you

782
00:37:22,599 --> 00:37:23,719
get to see the movie, mad Wick.

783
00:37:23,960 --> 00:37:25,880
Speaker 3: That's right, be sure and check them out over at

784
00:37:25,920 --> 00:37:27,039
a Film by Podcast.

785
00:37:27,280 --> 00:37:31,480
Speaker 2: Now it is time to jump into the spoiler zone.

786
00:37:31,880 --> 00:37:36,960
We have seen the movie now, yes, and I can

787
00:37:37,039 --> 00:37:40,199
say a long time ago, in a movie theater far

788
00:37:40,280 --> 00:37:44,280
far away, we saw an amazing movie. Yes, and then

789
00:37:44,320 --> 00:37:47,639
we came back thirty something years later and we saw

790
00:37:47,679 --> 00:37:51,840
another amazing movie that was very much like Top Gun,

791
00:37:52,400 --> 00:37:54,000
but also very much like Star Wars.

792
00:37:54,079 --> 00:37:56,440
Speaker 3: It really was. We both agreed that this was really

793
00:37:56,519 --> 00:37:58,400
kind of a retelling of Star Wars.

794
00:37:58,480 --> 00:38:00,960
Speaker 2: Right, So, just in case you didn't catch it, we're

795
00:38:01,000 --> 00:38:02,880
about to spoil the heck out of this movie. So

796
00:38:02,920 --> 00:38:05,119
if you don't want to hear the spoilers, run away.

797
00:38:05,440 --> 00:38:07,280
But I'm not going to give away what I think

798
00:38:07,320 --> 00:38:09,360
are probably the best parts. I'm just going to tell

799
00:38:09,400 --> 00:38:12,280
you great stuff coming right, sure, sure, Okay, So we

800
00:38:12,400 --> 00:38:17,079
started off this movie with virtually an identical introduction from

801
00:38:17,119 --> 00:38:18,000
the original movie.

802
00:38:18,039 --> 00:38:20,840
Speaker 3: I loved it. It was a love letter to the fans.

803
00:38:20,960 --> 00:38:23,239
Speaker 2: It absolutely was. And I get to say for this

804
00:38:23,440 --> 00:38:25,840
whole movie, if you are going to take a movie

805
00:38:25,960 --> 00:38:29,920
that has the nostalgia that is attached like the nostalgia

806
00:38:30,000 --> 00:38:32,800
is to Top Gun, this is a lesson on.

807
00:38:32,800 --> 00:38:33,400
Speaker 3: How to do that.

808
00:38:33,519 --> 00:38:33,679
Speaker 5: Right.

809
00:38:34,280 --> 00:38:38,360
Speaker 2: They let us in with this beautiful throwback to the

810
00:38:38,360 --> 00:38:40,840
way that we saw things when we first saw Top Gun.

811
00:38:41,159 --> 00:38:44,719
They ended it in a very similar style. It was

812
00:38:45,119 --> 00:38:48,800
spot on. Hey fans, we're here for you. But also,

813
00:38:49,360 --> 00:38:53,559
here's another great story that is very unlike the first story.

814
00:38:53,639 --> 00:38:56,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, this really blew my doors off, so I appreciate

815
00:38:56,880 --> 00:38:59,360
the effort and the time. You know, we talked about

816
00:38:59,360 --> 00:39:01,599
how this was a love letter not only to aviation

817
00:39:01,760 --> 00:39:05,239
but to movie fans. Yeah, if you like cinema, this

818
00:39:05,440 --> 00:39:06,559
was a love letter to you.

819
00:39:06,960 --> 00:39:08,800
Speaker 2: Yep, this is a way not to screw it up.

820
00:39:08,880 --> 00:39:10,840
There have been tons of screw ups that have happened

821
00:39:10,880 --> 00:39:13,280
in the past. I've ventured to say even Joseph Kazinski

822
00:39:13,320 --> 00:39:16,000
probably had a lesson to learn from doing the Tron

823
00:39:16,159 --> 00:39:18,440
Legacy because it didn't really pay off the way that

824
00:39:18,480 --> 00:39:20,800
the original did. But what he did with this one

825
00:39:21,079 --> 00:39:22,159
was a masterpiece.

826
00:39:22,280 --> 00:39:24,400
Speaker 3: It was fun, It was a little less rock and roll.

827
00:39:24,679 --> 00:39:26,719
It was definitely more concentrated on Maverick.

828
00:39:26,880 --> 00:39:29,960
Speaker 2: The story. I expected a deeper story and I got one.

829
00:39:30,119 --> 00:39:33,360
This one, it's true, was not full rock and roll

830
00:39:33,400 --> 00:39:36,239
all the time. You got plenty of fast jets, you

831
00:39:36,400 --> 00:39:39,159
got good looking women, you got good looking guys, you

832
00:39:39,280 --> 00:39:42,920
got guys who are kicking butt, and it's all kinds

833
00:39:42,960 --> 00:39:46,480
of awesome. But there is a much deeper plot line

834
00:39:46,519 --> 00:39:49,239
behind this one than from the original movie. Yeah, which

835
00:39:49,280 --> 00:39:51,639
is not super hard to do because the original movie

836
00:39:51,639 --> 00:39:53,480
did not have a super deep plot it was about

837
00:39:53,679 --> 00:39:55,639
rock and roll in the sky, right, Yeah, but.

838
00:39:55,639 --> 00:39:57,719
Speaker 3: It wasn't deep it was. It was still a very

839
00:39:57,800 --> 00:40:02,159
much popcorn movie, very enjoyable at least two like bust

840
00:40:02,199 --> 00:40:05,840
out laughing moments. Yes, that were very real. So even

841
00:40:05,880 --> 00:40:08,519
though I thought the movie was sort of more serious

842
00:40:08,559 --> 00:40:11,360
in tone, it was still tons of fun. The aerial

843
00:40:11,440 --> 00:40:13,239
combat stuff was amazing.

844
00:40:13,519 --> 00:40:15,920
Speaker 2: So let me talk about a few of the things

845
00:40:15,920 --> 00:40:17,960
that we talked about in the early half of this episode.

846
00:40:18,000 --> 00:40:19,960
Right in the first half of this episode. Number one,

847
00:40:20,119 --> 00:40:23,639
I mentioned the Dark Star. Yes, that is You're gonna

848
00:40:23,639 --> 00:40:26,519
get that right off the bat, and it is awesome.

849
00:40:26,599 --> 00:40:29,239
It is a great introduction. It lets us know where

850
00:40:29,320 --> 00:40:32,320
Maverick stands, like how he's grown as a human being

851
00:40:32,400 --> 00:40:36,559
and not grown as a human being. It is very

852
00:40:36,639 --> 00:40:42,239
well executed and lays the foundation for the story at hand.

853
00:40:42,320 --> 00:40:42,519
Speaker 3: Right.

854
00:40:42,840 --> 00:40:45,039
Speaker 2: It is a it's a foreshadowing of what's to come.

855
00:40:45,320 --> 00:40:49,840
They then bring us into very similar circumstances, like we're

856
00:40:49,840 --> 00:40:51,599
going to go back to training, right, but it's not

857
00:40:51,760 --> 00:40:54,800
police academy at all. Right, it's it's not back to

858
00:40:54,840 --> 00:40:58,039
the miner. Yes, it's it is. It is some genuinely

859
00:40:58,079 --> 00:41:00,480
good stuff. They've got a woman who's now part of

860
00:41:00,519 --> 00:41:02,840
the Top Gun crew, and what they're doing in this

861
00:41:02,920 --> 00:41:04,679
one was a little more in line with what we

862
00:41:04,760 --> 00:41:08,239
talked about Top Gun being really like where each squad

863
00:41:08,320 --> 00:41:11,559
sends their top pilots to learn and then go back

864
00:41:11,559 --> 00:41:13,880
and teach. And what we've got in this one is

865
00:41:14,159 --> 00:41:15,880
those guys are coming back again.

866
00:41:16,000 --> 00:41:17,519
Speaker 3: It's like, not just.

867
00:41:17,519 --> 00:41:19,679
Speaker 2: The best of the squads, it's the best of the

868
00:41:19,719 --> 00:41:20,880
best of the squads.

869
00:41:20,960 --> 00:41:23,079
Speaker 3: It's like the best of Top Gun. Yeah. Yeah, I

870
00:41:23,119 --> 00:41:27,039
gotta say there's a sequence involving an F fourteen. Okay,

871
00:41:27,079 --> 00:41:29,840
so that was like my favorite part of the entire movie, right.

872
00:41:29,679 --> 00:41:32,559
I have to say I talked about this first half

873
00:41:32,599 --> 00:41:34,679
of the episode. You know, the fact that there was

874
00:41:34,719 --> 00:41:37,400
an F fourteen Tomcat in the trailer, and I was like,

875
00:41:37,440 --> 00:41:39,280
I don't know how they're gonna bring that. Is this

876
00:41:39,320 --> 00:41:40,199
a flashback?

877
00:41:40,239 --> 00:41:43,400
Speaker 2: What is it? It is the best payoff in the

878
00:41:43,440 --> 00:41:47,679
whole movie, in my opinion, and they lovingly refer to

879
00:41:47,679 --> 00:41:48,880
it as a bag of ass.

880
00:41:51,480 --> 00:41:54,280
Speaker 3: And not only is it a great moment when that

881
00:41:54,320 --> 00:41:56,920
thing comes back in, but the whole use of the

882
00:41:56,960 --> 00:41:59,880
F fourteen is beautiful. And I'll say this, Okay, so

883
00:42:00,159 --> 00:42:03,800
we've seen two kind of Hey, we're re redoing a story.

884
00:42:03,880 --> 00:42:04,320
This year.

885
00:42:04,360 --> 00:42:07,280
Speaker 2: We saw The Batman, we saw this one. The Batman

886
00:42:07,840 --> 00:42:10,239
I loved, but it didn't deliver as well in the

887
00:42:10,239 --> 00:42:12,199
third act. Same problem I had with The Dark Knight,

888
00:42:12,239 --> 00:42:15,920
same problem I had with Batman eighty nine. This one,

889
00:42:16,159 --> 00:42:18,599
I think the third act was probably the best act

890
00:42:18,679 --> 00:42:20,519
of the whole movie.

891
00:42:19,920 --> 00:42:25,679
Speaker 3: Totally agree. The climax and then the second climax, We're

892
00:42:25,719 --> 00:42:28,719
out of this world, blow your socks off, awesome popcorn fund.

893
00:42:28,880 --> 00:42:32,159
Speaker 2: We had a couple of points of no return and

894
00:42:32,360 --> 00:42:35,840
they delivered like we probably had three to four points

895
00:42:35,840 --> 00:42:37,039
where you're just like, I don't know how they're going

896
00:42:37,079 --> 00:42:40,119
to get out of this one. And it wasn't contrived.

897
00:42:40,159 --> 00:42:42,599
That's what I loved about it. None of this was contrived.

898
00:42:42,639 --> 00:42:45,480
Everything was like, Okay, that makes sense. I mean, they

899
00:42:45,760 --> 00:42:48,960
they sold it. They didn't give us something that we're like, okay,

900
00:42:49,760 --> 00:42:55,159
come on, really, No, this was all spot on, great

901
00:42:55,519 --> 00:42:57,119
storytelling from beginning to end.

902
00:42:57,440 --> 00:43:00,000
Speaker 3: I will say this, so before we saw the movie,

903
00:43:00,039 --> 00:43:04,320
obviously we didn't know about it. No slider, no viper,

904
00:43:04,480 --> 00:43:07,480
no gesture, no sundown, none of the guys from the

905
00:43:07,519 --> 00:43:12,159
first movie except well, you have Maverick. You have Iceman,

906
00:43:12,480 --> 00:43:14,480
and you have Penny Benjamin, and you have Goose.

907
00:43:14,719 --> 00:43:17,320
Speaker 2: You know, well, yeah, there's talk of Goose. There's some

908
00:43:17,360 --> 00:43:19,719
flashback moments, but yes, see.

909
00:43:19,639 --> 00:43:20,639
Speaker 3: The ghost of Goose.

910
00:43:20,840 --> 00:43:25,039
Speaker 2: Yeah, we didn't get Obi Wan saying use the force,

911
00:43:25,239 --> 00:43:26,559
but we got pretty darn close.

912
00:43:26,719 --> 00:43:29,760
Speaker 3: There was some very close similarities.

913
00:43:29,800 --> 00:43:32,559
Speaker 2: So big spoilers coming along here. Well, part of what

914
00:43:32,599 --> 00:43:35,519
they have to do is hit a like three meter

915
00:43:35,679 --> 00:43:36,480
wide target.

916
00:43:36,599 --> 00:43:38,800
Speaker 3: Hey, we used the bullseye wap rats back home on

917
00:43:38,880 --> 00:43:43,440
our T sixteen. It's not much bigger than two meters right, right.

918
00:43:44,000 --> 00:43:47,280
Speaker 2: And you have an outlaw member of the Top Gun

919
00:43:47,360 --> 00:43:50,960
crew who saves the day at the end of the Yeah,

920
00:43:51,559 --> 00:43:54,000
my god, all clear, kid.

921
00:43:55,559 --> 00:43:58,760
Speaker 3: What's well? This thing to go home? Hey, you know

922
00:43:58,800 --> 00:44:00,599
what one of the funniest moments of the night. We

923
00:44:00,639 --> 00:44:01,639
were standing in line.

924
00:44:01,880 --> 00:44:03,760
Speaker 2: Oh my gosh, this is the best.

925
00:44:04,119 --> 00:44:05,159
Speaker 3: It's the best moment of the night.

926
00:44:05,199 --> 00:44:08,199
Speaker 2: So Jason's wearing his top gun shirt, right, he's got

927
00:44:08,199 --> 00:44:10,280
his top gun shirt on. We're standing a line. I

928
00:44:10,280 --> 00:44:11,920
don't even know why we're standing in line because we

929
00:44:11,960 --> 00:44:15,519
have assigned seats, but I guess, you know, we're like, oh,

930
00:44:15,519 --> 00:44:17,519
we're dumb fans. So we're standing in line and this

931
00:44:17,559 --> 00:44:19,920
guy's in front of us and he goes to Jaycey's like, oh,

932
00:44:20,039 --> 00:44:20,440
nice shirt.

933
00:44:20,440 --> 00:44:21,039
Speaker 3: How old is that?

934
00:44:21,239 --> 00:44:24,199
Speaker 2: And he's like huh. He goes, is it from the eighties.

935
00:44:24,239 --> 00:44:26,159
He's like, no, I got this like a couple of

936
00:44:26,199 --> 00:44:29,280
years ago at Target. And he's like, oh yeah, you

937
00:44:29,320 --> 00:44:31,280
guys excited and we're like yeah, and he goes.

938
00:44:31,280 --> 00:44:32,199
Speaker 3: Have you seen the original?

939
00:44:34,320 --> 00:44:38,679
Speaker 2: Uh? Yeah, yeah, we caught that one.

940
00:44:39,639 --> 00:44:42,360
Speaker 3: I almost started laughing and I'm like, I've seen this

941
00:44:42,440 --> 00:44:46,400
movie a thousand times. Have you seen the original?

942
00:44:47,280 --> 00:44:48,360
Speaker 2: Yes, yes we have.

943
00:44:49,039 --> 00:44:50,960
Speaker 3: That's why we're here on Opening night with my top

944
00:44:51,000 --> 00:44:51,559
gun shirt on.

945
00:44:53,440 --> 00:44:56,440
Speaker 2: That's classic. No after credit scenes.

946
00:44:56,519 --> 00:44:57,800
Speaker 3: In case you're wondering.

947
00:44:57,480 --> 00:45:00,320
Speaker 2: About that, you will have you will have an nice

948
00:45:00,320 --> 00:45:05,320
little epilogue. Let's talk about Penny Benjamin real quick. She beautiful,

949
00:45:05,559 --> 00:45:08,960
but not like overly plastic to you know, I mean,

950
00:45:09,000 --> 00:45:11,079
she looks like a genuinely.

951
00:45:10,800 --> 00:45:12,960
Speaker 3: I think I told you she looks like a beautiful

952
00:45:13,000 --> 00:45:13,880
soccer mom, a.

953
00:45:13,880 --> 00:45:18,159
Speaker 2: Very beautiful soccer mom. But Jennifer Conley has aged exceptionally well.

954
00:45:19,559 --> 00:45:23,000
Speaker 3: Tom Cruise have aged extremely well, and they have fought

955
00:45:23,039 --> 00:45:27,119
their early eyebrow problems. They've got the eyebrows under control.

956
00:45:27,320 --> 00:45:29,400
Speaker 2: I was really hoping that there'd be like a quarter

957
00:45:29,480 --> 00:45:35,440
operated horse on this one. But Sulu, there are really

958
00:45:35,480 --> 00:45:40,960
some great touching moments in this one. The dynamic between Rooster,

959
00:45:41,079 --> 00:45:44,480
who is Goose's son and Hangman, and the dynamic between

960
00:45:44,559 --> 00:45:48,400
Rooster and Maverick and the story of why they're at

961
00:45:48,400 --> 00:45:52,800
odds is great. It's well placed, it makes sense. Just

962
00:45:53,159 --> 00:45:57,800
great movie overall, guys. I super enjoyed it. So let

963
00:45:57,800 --> 00:46:00,480
me ask you this, Jason, Yes, tell me thoughts on

964
00:46:00,519 --> 00:46:03,679
the movie better or not as good as or as

965
00:46:03,719 --> 00:46:05,559
good as Top Gun the original?

966
00:46:05,800 --> 00:46:09,559
Speaker 3: Well, I'm not thirteen anymore, so this didn't quite strike

967
00:46:09,639 --> 00:46:12,960
me like the original. But the things that it really

968
00:46:13,000 --> 00:46:17,440
does well are exceptional. So the aerial combat stuff is

969
00:46:17,440 --> 00:46:20,440
stuff you've never seen on screen before. Just the feeling

970
00:46:20,639 --> 00:46:23,280
of being inside of a jet, this I think does

971
00:46:23,320 --> 00:46:26,480
a good job with that, and the relationship part of it.

972
00:46:26,480 --> 00:46:29,039
It's really good. So it's a little less you know,

973
00:46:29,119 --> 00:46:33,039
Talpopp and fraternity boys stuff, but I still loved it.

974
00:46:33,280 --> 00:46:36,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, what do you think? This one's better movie to me?

975
00:46:36,480 --> 00:46:37,400
By by far?

976
00:46:37,559 --> 00:46:37,880
Speaker 4: Wow?

977
00:46:38,280 --> 00:46:40,239
Speaker 2: I mean I told you before Top Gun was a

978
00:46:40,239 --> 00:46:41,960
good movie to me, But I didn't love me away

979
00:46:42,039 --> 00:46:44,559
like it did most of the guys my age. This

980
00:46:44,599 --> 00:46:48,440
one is better at the storytelling part of things, which

981
00:46:48,679 --> 00:46:50,760
you know, that's great, That's what I want. But in

982
00:46:50,800 --> 00:46:53,599
my opinion, it's better on the aviation stuff too. It's

983
00:46:53,920 --> 00:46:58,000
the scissors flying, the dives, the g's that you're feeling

984
00:46:58,039 --> 00:47:00,360
with those guys. To me, it was much more, and

985
00:47:00,400 --> 00:47:01,719
it could be the fact that we were watching it

986
00:47:01,760 --> 00:47:07,880
an Imax theater, but it was intense along with great characters,

987
00:47:08,079 --> 00:47:11,760
great story, a history that they build without doing a

988
00:47:11,760 --> 00:47:15,719
lot of exposition. I mean, yeah, to me, Top Gun

989
00:47:16,199 --> 00:47:18,920
Maverick is a better movie than Top Gun.

990
00:47:19,199 --> 00:47:20,519
Speaker 3: Wow, I got another question for you.

991
00:47:20,639 --> 00:47:24,119
Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, Top Gun Maverick, Yes, or The Batman.

992
00:47:24,280 --> 00:47:26,559
Speaker 3: I still I like the Batman better. Yeah, I like

993
00:47:26,599 --> 00:47:28,800
the Batman better. But I did enjoy this When I

994
00:47:28,800 --> 00:47:31,079
think I told you just the idea of making a

995
00:47:31,079 --> 00:47:33,719
movie that pleases audiences makes me happy.

996
00:47:33,920 --> 00:47:34,559
Speaker 2: It really does.

997
00:47:34,679 --> 00:47:38,280
Speaker 3: This was directed at fans, and I am very thankful

998
00:47:38,400 --> 00:47:42,400
and I am fully in full appreciation mode from Tom

999
00:47:42,480 --> 00:47:44,760
Cruise and Jeff Kazinsky. Yeah.

1000
00:47:44,960 --> 00:47:47,559
Speaker 2: Joseic Kazinski, by the way, is about our age. I

1001
00:47:47,599 --> 00:47:49,920
think he was born seventy five around our time, and

1002
00:47:50,000 --> 00:47:51,679
so he grew up with this so like we did.

1003
00:47:51,800 --> 00:47:54,280
And so this was you know, Tom Cruise. So this

1004
00:47:54,320 --> 00:47:56,639
is a love letter to Aviation. To me, this is

1005
00:47:56,719 --> 00:47:58,920
Josep Kazinski's love letter to top Gun.

1006
00:47:58,960 --> 00:48:01,320
Speaker 3: I agree with that with that. Hey, one thing I

1007
00:48:01,320 --> 00:48:04,239
wanted to mention to UD, I thought they used the

1008
00:48:04,320 --> 00:48:07,760
Lady Gaga song throughout the movie, just like Take My

1009
00:48:07,800 --> 00:48:11,679
Breath Away. It was underlying, it had that piano key.

1010
00:48:12,039 --> 00:48:14,760
It set the tone for the movie. And I come

1011
00:48:14,800 --> 00:48:17,719
out the other side of the movie liking that song better.

1012
00:48:18,320 --> 00:48:20,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, I wasn't. I haven't listened to that song a

1013
00:48:20,480 --> 00:48:23,519
whole bunch. But I did notice on the opening credits

1014
00:48:24,000 --> 00:48:28,239
that they had Harold Fltmeyer, they had Lady Gaga, and

1015
00:48:28,239 --> 00:48:30,599
they had Hans Zimmer all listed at the same time.

1016
00:48:30,920 --> 00:48:33,800
So she's she's got equal billing with those guys. I

1017
00:48:33,840 --> 00:48:36,679
can say. I noticed when Hans Zimmer's music came in

1018
00:48:36,960 --> 00:48:39,519
and they put it in the perfect spot. But you

1019
00:48:39,639 --> 00:48:43,320
had that intensity that only Hans Zimmer can do during

1020
00:48:43,360 --> 00:48:47,440
those air maneuvers that they were doing. It was intense

1021
00:48:47,559 --> 00:48:48,199
and awesome.

1022
00:48:48,360 --> 00:48:52,199
Speaker 3: One more thing, Yeah, Kenny Loggin's Danger Zone is played

1023
00:48:52,519 --> 00:48:56,039
unmolested and in its original nineteen eighty six form. No

1024
00:48:56,480 --> 00:49:02,320
added rap, no stupid crap. I'm jacked around with it. It's

1025
00:49:01,960 --> 00:49:04,039
full blown danger zone. It was.

1026
00:49:04,719 --> 00:49:08,079
Speaker 2: When I heard it, I thought it was like maybe

1027
00:49:08,159 --> 00:49:11,800
remastered or redone, but just intensified a little bit. I

1028
00:49:11,800 --> 00:49:14,199
didn't think that it was exactly the same, but I

1029
00:49:14,239 --> 00:49:17,159
thought that they didn't. They didn't mess with it. They

1030
00:49:17,159 --> 00:49:19,079
did it and they were like, Okay, let's how we

1031
00:49:19,119 --> 00:49:21,000
can tweak it and just make it a just a

1032
00:49:21,079 --> 00:49:23,840
smidge better that and I think they delivered.

1033
00:49:23,360 --> 00:49:25,559
Speaker 3: Well, unless they brought in Toto or something like that.

1034
00:49:29,679 --> 00:49:32,519
