“Our very athletic college senior grandson has been talking about being a navy pilot for a couple of years now.”

My girlfriend’s grandson just became a Navy pilot. They are so woke! If I heard her correctly, he’s discouraged, possibly prohibited, to speak to black subordinates directly because his “tone” might offend them.

I’m not sure how the messages get filtered because there has to be a line where the two races must engage.

How’s that going to be helpful in combat or other emergency situations? I don’t know.

“Sounds like a woke movie to me.”

Not at all. And the enemy was ... our actual enemy, i. e., middle east rat bastards.

I don’t recall that scene in the original.

Maybe Urban Cowboy?

This review is worthless without pictures of said ‘Hot Girlfriend’.

Penny Penny Penny - Jennifer Conolly proves there is no reason on Earth why women in their 50’s must look like the box your refrigerator came in.

Loved the movie! The SR 71 opening sequence sets the tone. That was badass when the SCRAMjets come on. Yeowwwww! The inverted high speed dive down the mountainside was fantastic. Favorite line: When Penny let’s out the mainsail on her ocean racer and scares Maverick to death. - - “ Now you’re in the Navy!”

LOL OH, yeah

It was from another movie that she was in that was called “Career Opportunities.” I have no memory of it but I have seen the Flock Of Seagulls video.

I didn’t say it was woke.

Do you know how to read a thread?

Are you going to pre-order his upcoming book? he says he’ll hand deliver to your home and take you out to wild night of partying?

It was cheesy and utterly predictable. I was constantly thinking “look at all the old hollywood people with fake teeth.”

But overall, passable couple of hours.

Thanks for the run down but I will not be seeing the movie. Even when the pedophiles make a good movie, I will still not support their leftist lifestyle by paying to see it.

Thanks again for the post.

Agreed. It is a woke movie like all the other filth coming out of the freaks in hollywood.

Way more interested in seeing pics of the hot girlfriend than anything Tom Cruise is in.

In fact, even watching wallpaper paste dry seems more interesting…

Pilot in the box sounds like child talk akin to calling a car a wheel box.
