Top Gun 1986

The movie might be showing its age, or maybe I'm showing mine. The structure just felt off. The pacing was much too slow until the last quarter. There's something grating about Maverick's character—there's supposed to be, but I couldn't really find anything to like about him. And of course the romance is entirely unnecessary, but that's been a Hollywood problem since long before this movie (and still is).

@dgw you only watch it for the volleyball scene anyways perv

@mr-sackamano Or maybe you do…

@dgw MY DEAR FRIEND, MANY OF THE HOLLYWOOD FILMS WITH THE VERY LOADED MALE STEREOTYPE, SHOULD PUT SOMETHING ROMANCE TO HAVE SOMETHING OF REACH AS TO THE FEMALE AUDIENCE.

@pipeinformatico Calm down, Shouty. Women can relate to plenty of things that aren't "romance".

@dgw lol romance unnecessary ;DD dude, that romance is the point of this movie, it's not a real action movie
