Top Gun: Maverick (2022) - Tom Cruisin' USA
Manage episode 330463996 series 2849589
We've come to the end of our Tom Cruise mini-marathon, but honestly, folks, what a way to go out! Most of us doubted that 'Top Gun: Maverick' was going to be good, but no one (seriously, NO ONE) predicted that it was going to be GREAT! And perhaps even better than the original...?
Rocco and Alex start off with their opening thoughts on the new film before sounding the spoiler alarm to go deep on Cruise's latest masterpiece. We debate the strange career of former architect and current "legacyquel master builder" Joseph Kosinski, if Glen Powell's Hangman is meant to be seen as the Iceman or Maverick of the new class, how sweet that entire third act with Miles Teller truly is, what Christopher McQuarrie might have added in his final polish to the screenplay, and what Alex did down in San Diego for the 'Maverick' junket and premiere on the USS Midway.
Plus, stick around to the end for a preview of our next series!
