Yes,kids today don't do discs...just as they don't do CDs.But for the very best quality your films should be on 4K discs and your music should be on CDs.
1984 to 1988 were the best years ever.
I heard someone say it was basically a of the one from the 80’s?
They had a formula that work, and they used it.
Dave was a 13 year old kid when he saw the original Top Gun Movie. He decided then and there that he wanted to be a fighter pilot.
He relates his experiences as a fighter pilot & Top Gun Instructor to the Top Gun movie.
There is a couple of "Spoiler Alerts" in the interview. So, if you plan to see the movie, bookmark the interview and see the movie first.
1. Hollywood isn't going away. Such wishful thinking is like the guys pushing gold and doomsday shelters and economic doom newsletters, and reminds me of Mean Girls....it's not going to happen.
2. Hollywood and Hollyweird are two separate tribes (ask max). True, the studios and many major players may push wokey nonsense, but they like cash. Peak domestic box office take was $12bn in 2018. Top Gun has the potential to become a major draw in 2022 AND historic terms. It is pulling in not just older people but across ALL demographics. Go figya...ya stop trashing gthe values that make America great and you make a fortune. In fact, they way how you don't know if the Enemy is Russia, China, or Norway (that was great) means our TRUE enemies will PAY TO SEE THEMSELVES LOSE! Genius, and even wokey people like lobster vs tuna.
3. Wither Hollyweird. The studios will take note of Top Gun's success and the failure of wokey nonsens. In every profession, consultants push this and that idea...some take root but over time the bad ones die. If you see Top Gun AND Boycott stupid stuff, they'll notice.
4. You'll feel good. Before the film, they ran a self-serving short with Nicole Kidman suggesting that movies are good for your soul. Well...call me maleable, she was right. I felt good about America, the future, our past, and how to advance after the film. It is THAT GOOD.
Good, nay GREAT art helps the soul. It moves you in a way like no other media. This is great art. Let's use the Invisible Hand to hasten the demise (or at least retrenchment) of Hollyweird.
We saw it & liked it a lot. A great movie to see on the big screen at theaters…
Hollywood isn't going away but by making pro-America movies blockbuster hits and "woke" crap bombs, we have ability to set the tone.
I was going to see ‘Jurassic World Dominion’. But after seeing 3 trailers for it, I am going to pass. The dinosaur action looked good, but I don’t like the story line. Which is that the dinosaurs have escaped, so that now they pop up randomly all over the world, including frozen territories.
Maybe the dinosaurs are mail-in ballots!
“didn’t disclose which is the bad guy country..”
I thought I heard Iraq or Iran one time, but maybe not.
It was a very exciting and decent show.
