I guess the good news is that it can't be any crappier than the first one.

I think I will wait until this comes out on DvD and then not get it.

Back when I saw the movie in the theater, I was thinking "I've seen this before."

Then it hit me: it was a bad remake of Wings.

I cannot really think of any movies I like by Mr. Underpants. A Few Good men was Ok, but Nicholson carried the movie. He is just not a convincing lead actor to me. But i would watch anything he would be in if he croaks.

Well I liked Wings. I think top gun was a poor remake of the move "Red Flag" (1981) which has much better and more exciting air scenes in my opinion.

Or maybe wait 'till it's broadcast, record it then set your recorder to play it whilst your out

Yeah! I will wait until it is broadcast, set my DVR to record C-Span so I can erase it when I get home.

The only thing I ever liked from Tom Cruise is Collateral.

He ruined Mission Impossible one of my favorite tv series.

Thank the powers that be he was killed in Collateral.

I could only have wished the same in Top Gun.

No, no, no, ya'll got it totally wrong! Cruise will pilot a couch on Oprah's TV show, blasting anyone who attacks scientology.

Maybe this time he will fly over a soviet SAM site.:hmm:

When I was a child, I liked that movie, it was... motivating for me.
But I still like it's soundtracks though.

The soundtrack was pretty cool. I used to listen to it while playing the original falcon.
