You absolutely have to watch this!!!

I couldn't agree more...

I was watching one of his lighter comedies the other day—you know, the ones where he’s trying to make it big in the stand-up circuit (maybe something Down to Earth like that)... He has such incredible timing, and honestly, I don't think those jokes were even written by some studio scriptwriter... they felt so genuine... 👍

He absolutely gets my vote! 😳

Now, Jerry Seinfeld is fine...
Chris Tucker is totally fine too...

Honestly, how could I have possibly let myself forget 😕 🙄

ZOOLANDER is an absolute masterpiece!!!

👋

Finally, a brilliant pick from the films starring *this actor*... 🙏

What an absolutely phenomenal movie... 👍

It is undoubtedly one of the absolute best works from the prime era of Eddie Murphy... 😉

Don't be so sure, anything is possible in these movies...

Then again, the guy is a chemical engineer after all...

😁

Well, I have to admit, I’ve watched that scene at least ten times now... that moment when Sly bursts into the apartment, only to find his sister basically riding on Kurt’s back while she *really* gets into it...

And all those sighs....

The moaning....

And just look at Sly’s expression....

😂

Sly's voice 😕

Or even that part where he stares down a massive semi-truck just half a foot in front of him without even blinking, while shards of glass rain down over his head...

sly = 🙂 + 🙂

I haven't actually sat down to watch the movie yet—not because I’m avoiding it, mind you, but just because life keeps getting in the way...

However, I have heard just about everything regarding the plot, and the consensus seems to be that it bears very little resemblance to Homer...

But then again, who am I to judge? Americans always seem to have such strong opinions on how these stories ought to be told...
If nothing else, knowing Brad Pitt still meets his end is quite the testament to Hollywood's commitment to tragedy...

The whole thing really brings to mind that old joke:

Question: Why didn't Bruce Willis star in Titanic??
Answer: Because he would have saved everyone...

Dolly Parton said:For me, Austin Powers & Mr. Bean is easily at the very top of my list of all-time great ridiculous movies.

I couldn't agree more!!! 🙂

The movie leans into its absurdity so hard that it actually becomes a masterpiece...

It’s definitely the most...

...(especially during those scenes where they're zooming around on those tiny little scooters with their snot dripping everywhere)... 😂

Rebecca Taylor57 said:Just a few more thoughts regarding the Top Gun Explanation

I’m honestly starting to question my own sexuality here... 😲

And then there's point number three—The Karate Kid—which leads us straight to 😂

Basquiat said:Top Gun is actually one of Quentin Tarantino's favorite movies
I remember watching this film on TV Guide a few years back—I honestly can't recall the title, though I'm fairly certain Eric Stolz was in it... it was about a group of young aspiring actors navigating life in Hollywood
then, completely out of nowhere, Tarantino pops up in a cameo role and starts breaking down the film in his signature style, arguing that the true underlying theme of Top Gun is actually the repressed homosexuality within the US military
he points to the ending where the Americans beat the Russians, and then Iceman gives Maverick a huge hug and says, "you can always be my wingman"🙂

To which the macho Tom Cruise responds: "Bullshit, You can be MINE!"

😂

Tarantino would really have a lot to say about topics like this... 😁

I'm not entirely certain about this one... 🤔

It's just that, looking a little further up the thread, someone mentioned they caught a glimpse of it on TV just a few days ago for the very first time... 🙂

Top Gun is absolute perfection... I actually have the whole thing on three different VHS tapes, including one of those old ones with the classic yellow subtitles from back in the day... 😉
