Tom cruise's victory over Hollywoke

So this video was ready 8 hours ago.
Ew Barf anime
Top Gun Maverick is one of those rare occurrences when the sequel isn’t a crappy continuation of the first story, they actually put effort into it and it turned out amazing. It’s hard finding those these days, things like the Star Wars Sequels and even some of the post Marvel Endgame films are starting to get worse
Insane good this movie was
Well said
Tom cruise sucks but agreed
Worse??? Thor love and thunder is trash 🗑️🗑️
I ain't worried about right now, the song actually good you all should hear that too😂
04:16
The aircraft in question is not an SR-71 Blackbird. The aircraft that appeared in Top Gun: Maverick is a fictional version of the SR-71's successor, referred in the movie as SR-72 "Dark Star". What made the plane extremely realistic was the fact that they have worked with Lockheed Martin's Skunk Works Division, the company responsible for bringing SR-71 Black Bird to life (alongside several legendary aircraft in the US Military) to create a 1:1 model of what the plane would have looked like in real life.
Funnily enough the Dark star model was so convincing that China re tasked satellites to get a better look
@@JoystickJoyrides Ya true. Apparently China got fooled so easily.
@@JoystickJoyrides oh really 😂🤣😆
YEAH LMAO
@@loki4236 yep that is true imagine tricking a nation into thinking you're creating an Advanced aircraft that is just simply a creative model for film purposes only that you have to re position your own satellite
It's even more cool that they got Lockheed Martin's Skunk Works division to work with them for the movie
I've actually flown the Super Hornet and i can tell you that we do sometimes put a hand up on the canopy. We use it for leverage to push back in order to see further back over the should. We can easily fly the jet with either hand on the stick. Not saying Tom Cruise was in the front flying, he was not, but that is not something that can be only done from the back seat. There is so much realism in this movie, its good to see!
I bet you didn't use your stick hand while doing a roll :)
Of course you have,otherwise you wouldn't need to have the reason to advertise that you flew one,if you did and or do,you set yourself up to be target on the ground after the fact.
Oh err well done
You must have flown different jet fighters than I did because neither movie is realistic.
@@Frankie5Angels150 I guess so! Since I have also met the actual pilot who flew all the scenes as Maverick. Have you?
Do you have Chux wipes and some Windex to clean off the fingerprints?
one of the coolest details i've seen in this movie is at the climbout part of the mission. There is a very brief shot of the pilots pulling the pinky (paddle) switch on the stick before pulling it. That switch will disengage the G-Limiter, which allows them to pull past the 7.5g limit rooster mentions earlier in the film.
Exactly - this is an Easter egg !!
Canadian lad and top gun, the crossover we never knew we needed until now
This shows that Mr Lad is not only a comic book lover but a true cinephile
@@genisysprime2384 True 💯💯💯
😩
May I add this: In the scene where Maverick proves that the mission could be flown everyone moves closer to the monitor as if to see if he can really do it. Only Warlock sat back in his chair showing us that Warlock has complete faith in Maverick's capabilities as a fighter pilot.
Yes I noticed that too. Warlock though is with his boss Cyclone, he's still secretly rooting for Maverick.
And then when the mission was a success, he was sorta celebrating to himself. This movie is a perfect example of consistent character writing.
There's a lot of subtle, implied history between the two characters. For those in the audience paying close attention, there could be an entirely new story based on them. Maybe Warlock was similar to Cyclone at one point and Maverick won him over. Or maybe Warlock was a student of Mav at some point. He's one of my favorite characters in the story because I can imagine so much.
@@gobdav Right. 👍
Excellent observation!
I think Top Gun was on repeat in our day room while I was in the military. I waiting quite a long time to watch Maverick. I think I was terrified of what they may have done to a movie that I have so many memories attached to. I finally watched it and I enjoyed every thought out detail carried over from the original. They knew people care a lot of about Top Gun and were very responsible with it.
I just got around to watching it yesterday. It had no business being that good considering the original was 36 years ago and sequels are usually terrible after that long. I liked that they didn't name a 'real world' country as the antagonist which I think gave them more freedom with the script while still being relevant/believable to the current era. I sorta got the impression that it was borrowing heavily from the Israel raid on Iraq's nuclear installation with F-16s IIRC where they barely had enough fuel even with aux tanks to make the round trip.
I have no idea which planet you were on but when I was in fighter squadrons we considered Top Gun a comedy. A ludicrous comedy.
What’s wrong with the new generations?
The first Top Gun movie was lunacy at its finest. Any military pilot who would have intentionally committed even one of the insanely stupid acts that maverick did would have instantly been stripped of his wings and never flown again. Absolute, undeniable fact. That flick was more of a silly ass sitcom than a depiction of actual military life
THE MOST IMPORTANT THING THAT YOU HAVNT NOTICED! IS THIS: EXPLAIN THIS HOW IS IT POSSIBLE THAT TOM CRUISE HARDLY LOOKS A DAY OLDER COMPARED TO WHEN HE FILMED THE FIRST TOP GUN??? !!!! LOOK AT KELLY MCGILLIS YOU CAN HARDLY RECOGNISE HER, SHE LOOKS A SHIT LOAD OLDER WHEREAS TOM DOES NOT, AND THAT WAS NOW NEARLY 30 YEARS AGO???THE ANSWER ANDRENOCHROME, LOOK THAT UP AND YOU WILL NO LONGER FIND TOM TO BE FAMOUS ACTOR YOU THINK HE IS! BUT RATHER THE LOWEST OF THE LOW!
Another detail I noticed: during the carrier scene before they take off, Rooster confronts Maverick just before they get on their Hornets, mirroring the earlier training scene where it was the reverse.
Now if you noticed in the background shot of Rooster his aircraft has the name “JOHN MATHESON” underneath the nose wheel cover, likely to indicate the name of the respective crew chiefs of the fighter jet. However at one point Rooster covers a portion of the name such that it reads “THESON”
Wow! Great catch!
Damn. Are you an Eagle
@rafidwiputradaniswara891 Is more likely the name of the maintenance crew chief. The pilot names are on the Canopy rail
The eagle has entered the chat
@@99bimmer yesh
To start off with, that Aircraft isn’t the SR-71, it’s a composite aircraft and basically a large model. It actually was made in conglomeration with the skunkworks that made the SR-71, along with the various black ops projects including the stealth aircraft
I read an article where Jerry Bruckheimer said the Darkstar (the hypsersonic prototype in the movie) looked so real that China moved a satellite to track it
I hate it when videos confidently say the wrong thing and make people who watch them less intelligent.
it looks to be modelled off the SR-72, a UAV that is the replacement for the SR-71 Blackbird.
I found this kind of confusing because he does talk about the darkstar model later on.
Stopped watching at this point....
These details actually left me speechless. The attention to even the smallest details is simply amazing
You haven't even watched half of it
Maaaaahnn Am Like at Number 15 looking How much more details do I Got 😂💯💯💯👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
@@DEVIL-xg9bh what?
@@KGBeast. when this video came out it was 26m ago
You comment was 24m ago
So you couldn't have even watched the hole vid
@@DEVIL-xg9bh YES. I think this is a bullshit channel. Like: 04:10 "THIS AIRCRAFT SR-71" If you can not notice the difference between a "movie-airplane (darkstar)" and a real one, SR-71. Maybe not comment a movie with a LOT of JETS and airplanes in it....
Something else that I noticed on the rewatch is that when Maverick flies the scenario and shows them that it’s possible, everyone in the room looks surprised except for cyclone, warlock, and hangman. They were the three most experienced pilots in the room. And not one of them was surprised that Maverick could do the impossible.
I thought the Maverick verbal & Iceman computer conversation was brilliant with great acting chops it absolutely felt that the minimalist intuitive dialogue spoke volumes easily leading us through any silent script.

The rooster expression while realizing, reasoning, and finally accepting that a pilot this good cannot be the one to fault in his father's death blew my mind.
Rooster was not blaming Maverick though, he was upset because Maverick was blocking him to be a pilot early on.
What in the movie made you think he blamed maverick? He was upset about maverick blocking his pilot career.
@@larryaccardo3134 oh it was when rooster said "my father believed in you.. I won't make the same mistake" in reference to losing a wingman
@@victorchiu7686 I can see how it is taken that way. I just took it as he knew he couldn't trust him because of the career sabotage. I'm also influenced by the amount of times they referenced it and the fact maverick didn't want him on that mission and rooster knew that.
@@larryaccardo3134 yes, it's true what ur saying also. There's actually a lot going on in that scene: the complex of emotions Rooster is experiencing in that scene a) being mad at Mav (as u mentioned for pulling his papers), b) being present with the man who he thinks caused the loss of his father (rmb this scene is prior to Mav proving/doing the impossible) c) the emotion of almost having to witness/experience losing a teammate due to a freak birdstrike accident and another teammate with g-lock just prior c) reflecting on hangman's comment 'whoever follows u is just gonna run out of fuel' (reveals some history behind how rooster is as a pilot, as he may have "failed" a part of training or something else in the past) might be casting doubt creating the possibility in his mind that he could be the reason the mission gets compromised should he become squadron leader. The tension was luckily diffused with Warlock entering the scene to interrupt. Had that not have happened, the outcome could have been very different. Sorry for being tangential and rambling on.
Can't believe Tom Cruise Turned 60 and still looks so young and doing is own stunts by himself
This man is gift to cinema
Just wanted to add, no offense intended; He isn't doing the stunts by himself, he is in the back seat of the Blue Angels. They simply put a camera in the back seat, but it is still impressive that he didn't choose to do cgi!
@@Kazperh yeah, the g force he has to deal with is already impressive enough, although it would be absolutely crazy if he flew the planes lol
@@Kazperh but he does his own stunts in literally all of his films
@@louispacetime1576
Not this one.
I guess you can change your comment to "most of his films" now.
@@joebloggs24 Flying in the back seat of fighter jets doing spirals and experiencing G Force is still doing stunts. Do you NOT know what that actually means? The actors don't have to actually fly it themselves for it to be a stunt. Putting themselves in danger or risk constantly for extended periods everyday is a stunt because of the elevated constant risk. I guess he doesn't have to change his sentence now.
According to estimates made by Scott Manley and others, the Darkstar aircraft was probably at an altitude of 120,000 feet when approaching Mach 10.0. The atmosphere is so thin there and the temperature so low that the speed of sound is only 447mph, so he was actually approaching 4470mph, not 7672mph.
Also, you technically can touch the windshield with your right hand in high G turns since the stick is center-mounted in the F-18. It will probably be uncomfortable, however, because the stick is designed for a right-hand grip.

7:43 what great about this is the parallel goes beyond just that. Viper also flew with Maverick's father and watched him die, just like how Maverick used to fly with Goose, Rooster's father, and watched him die.
After Mav did the run successfully in just under 2:15, everyone was mindblown. Except Hondo. He knew this was just Tuesday for him.

Fun fact, when Range Control says "Maverick Range Control Confiiiirmed, we don't see a schedule for you."
"Well, Im goin anyways."
In the navy that happens on a good day lol.
Great job on your video! One point of clarification is that aircraft is not an SR-71, although the movie hired the same company to design the frame of this one. It was so realistic looking that when the prop was on the tarmac, the Chinese government moved satellites to have a look at it. Also at mach 10 it shows him turning pretty sharply which would be impossible at that speed.
When he said SR-71 I had to check to see if anybody else caught that.
Yeah , I was thinking the same thing when he was banking hard at mach 10.
Everything you said was true until the end. The turn depicted was an extremely large parabolic arc being depicted over the mainland US.
Also… it was completely NOT possible to eject at that speed and survive. His flesh woulda peeled on the bones just before he disintegrated into a light rain over a public park somewhere.
@@energ8t He could eject at that speed if the Darkstar had a capsule like the FB-111.
Great review. Well done. One of the things I loved about this movie is how neatly it weaves in and out of the original to gently remind us of what we all saw 35 years ago. This is not only a great movie, it is nearly perfect. The script was brilliantly detailed.

Awesome review. The thing that you said about dialogues not being needed when the scene is shot correctly is so true. This movie had many such shots where the camera lingers on the actor's expression and the viewer feels the emotion and I loved that about Top Gun 2.
This movie was the first one I saw in theater since the pandemic started. And I think it is the best sequel I have ever come across. Was an awesome experience every second it was on, loved your video about it.
Couldn't agree more!
@@TheCanadianLad Please Watch RRR
Top Gun Maverick not only does the original movie justice but also justifies its own existence, not merely as a fine continuation that picks up Maverick's story so many years down the road but also a damn good movie in its own right.
It's the little things that really got me in this movie, such as Tom Cruise requesting for "taxi with information ____ " at the beginning.
This is probably the best movie I've ever seen. I watched it in theatres twice then bought it digitally & let it play every weekend as background sound.
4:10 that’s not the SR-71, it’s not even the sr-72, it’s fictional. The X-43 has done Mach 9.
I went to see this movie because I was bored. After it ended I was left confused, this movie was one of the best movies I've ever seen!
I hope you do more non-marvel films. You're really great at doing breakdowns, research, writing, etc.
Really
Yeaaah I got a Suggestion ... Could you do Like the movie by the name Knowing by Nicholas Cage ?
Please
pls
Legit
Great video dude! This film is firmly in my Top Ten of all time... Just epic.
One more detail was noteworthy, after getting the supersonic air flow in the engine, Tom changed to scramjet from turbojet. That's the only way to get greater speed/hypersonic in that aircraft. This movie really is lit af about small details.
That scene where everyone was happy and Rooster was just realising, was such good writing.. There was no explicit scene stating that he is beginning to believe Maverick.. But this was the missing piece.. Amazing
That too, without any over-the-top dramatic music, which may mask some of the faint expressions in their faces.
4:20 it's not sr-71 it's a new one ( proposed privately in 2013 by Lockheed Martin as a successor to the retired Lockheed SR-71 Blackbird)
1. Of all the MACH number is variable in altitude and temperature.
2. The airplane shown in the film is not the all famous SR-71 Blackbird. (Wich was "only" capable of mach 3.2). It was a new Design/replica, specifically built for this movie in coperation with Skunk Works.
That was a pretty good breakdown of some parts.
I think you should have included his team selection, or maybe do a part two covering it?
Especially Hangman as his back-up Dagger.
As always great video. However the hypersonic aircraft at the beginning of the film is not the SR-71. the SR-71 only ever reached speeds of about Mach 3.3. this is most likely based off of concepts for the SR-72 which is a hypothetical successor to the SR-71.
Thank you ! I was about to write the same comment !
True
@@DEATRACK Of course! Glad to see I am not the only aircraft nerd here.
Exactly, it is a futuristic hypersonic design named “darkstar” with modern engine technology, although it definitely took inspiration from the SR-71 it was actually designed from the ground up by Lockheed Martin’s Skunk works for the movie.
@@spacewithx it's based off the concepts for the sr-72
I CANNOT tell which f-bomb is better...
The one Rooster had after the SU-57 did its maneuver.
Or the one TCL had at 9:40.
Rooster’s
This movie is down right amazing. I didn’t know that we needed this film until I saw it in theater’s. I saw it on its release day and it’s the only film I’ve seen more than once at the theater. Tom Cruise is phenomenal and every scene was near perfection. One of the greatest films and sequels of all time for sure
the sound mixing was incredible and deserving of the oscar. on rewatch i noticed in the scene where maverick is outside and rooster is playing piano, the sound of the song is muted in one ear so that you are put in mavericks head and feel what he is way more.
Top Gun: Maverick is really a great sequel to a great movie. It isn't often that a movie is as good as, if not, better than its prequel. The crew did an amazing job with recreating some of the iconic shots like beach scene, Maverick on his bike, etc. There are a lot of sequels or remakes that ruin the recreation of iconic scenes, but that didn't happen here and the hardwork paid off. Maverick is the first non-superhero type movie in a long time to cross 1 Billion dollars.
9:33 when they were looking out towards the water, it felt like if the water was a type of symbolism for that moment. Looking into the dark and unknown. Which connects to what you said about Penny knowing the worst case scenario.
What an excellent breakdown and review! I seen this movie multiple times and still learned a lot of different things from your video. Keep up the great work!
The end comment how you don't need much dialogue to make it personal is so relatable. For example
How did you feel when he went mach 10? When the music came on. When the words "Talk to me Goose" Came out his mouth. Exactly, it is perfection. And yet he only says 4 words.
12:56 so accurate. I hope they don't f*ck up wakanda forever by making stupid jokes. That movie is supposed to be emotional and serious. I hope Marvel maintain the tone.
if I reply your comments get in touch with the above number. You have been chosen among the winners of this week giveaway.
Nice list. My favorite was when you said Rooster started to believe Mav wasn't to blame for his father's death. Good perspective I hadn't thought of before!
The aircraft is not an SR-71. The Blackbird was, in fact, decommissioned. The hypersonic plane in the movie is a mock up made specifically for the movie, and allegedly based on "blueprints" of real hypersonic aircraft in development (possibly the Sr-72)
I have already seen the movie 5 times so far, and waited half my life to see the final installment. I wasn't let down as it was truly worth waiting for! However, i did not spot any of your eagle eyed observations.
Nice one man and thanks for that extra bit of noteworthy info 👍🏻 You now have a new subscriber, as i am looking forward with interest as to what you pull out the bag next? I like the little unrealised details that you have spotted and pointed out in a well paced no mucking about way.
Cool man. 🙂👌
This was a brilliant review of Maverick! Thank you Canadian Lad for this awesome recap! Now I want to watch Maverick again!
The scene when they all safe and meet again is really hit me hard. It's like they show us how it feel to be a hero and as a soldier after suicide mission that can comeback. It's just very wholesome
It reminds me of the incredible welcome home the soldiers received from the Persian gulf war at Westover Air Force Base, near my house. Theatrical music, the cheering, all the soldiers were bronze, tanned.
I have not seen the movie and this was the first time watching anything on this channel. Gave a thumbs up because the video deserved it and commenting to help the channel.
Didn't have too high of expectations going in to Maverick and it blew me away. Seen it probably a dozen times already. Definitely one of my favorite movies of all time. Great from start to finish.
Another detail, in aviation. Pilots use compass bearings mosf of the time, instead of the usual 6 or 12. The felon pilot was telling maverick
3 3 0
He was telling him to go to bearing 330, to either catch up to the remaining f-18s or to land at another airfield for investigation
The pilots were using an interception formation btw, so it's probably the latter. The pilot on his left was probably about to start giving warnings so that's why he was caught off-guard. with the sudden turn and guns.
Do you grasp the concept of
HOLLYWOOD MOVIE
not to be portrayed to be real life or events that actually happened.
@@joebloggs24 Do you grasp that movies are fictionalized versions of real life?
If someone drives a car or flies a plane or falls in love in a movie, the scene will be based on....REAL LIFE.
Now go away, you've more than humiliated yourself enough for one day.
@@LuckyFlesh
HOLLYWOOD. Is fictional. Even movie "based on true events" are manipulated. Stop living in fantasy land where the lines between real and hollywood movie are blurred.
How will someone who has not trained for atleast ppl yet will know all these
It’s great how if we have to wait long amounts of time for you to upload we can know that it’s just because you’re putting work into a video and it’s going to be good
Feel free to do more of this! Your breakdowns are always great to watch, even if they are not Marvel.
Someone else may have mentioned this already, but that’s not an SR-71, it’s the Darkstar.
It is a full size fake aircraft built just for the film. I have seen and touched it in person.
It is beautiful.
I remember that hangar belongs to Tom Cruise himself. So that entire opening scene for Maverick is in fact a opening to Tom Cruise. That OG jacket was also kept by him so it may very well be in this hangar all this time in his life
Spiderman No Way Home had several scenes of Silence. Where we felt what the character was feeling. The pauses . Moments of silence matters.
I still remember at the end when Tom went to Andrew and Tobey to say goodbyes. And he becomes awkward and dont know what to say. Then Tobey's and Andrew's expression and saying that they get it... It was soo touchy..
And the scene where he goes to meet mj and returns without saying anything. damn! that glare at the end tom Holland nailed it
Exactly! We need more of this emotional Storytelling in marvel than assguardian jokes.
And the best one when TH went to kill the goblin with his glider and Tobey just stared at him... no words... but the expressions were enough for what he wanted to convey...
Kisko kiske saath compare kaar rahe ho
And after Andrew caught MJ...
Ahhh I'm gonna cry again
4:15 The SR71 you mention is a DarkStar. Good video.
Great video mate! One more addition to what already has been said: the motorcycle Tom riders in Top Gun: Maverick is the modern-day version of the motorcycle he used to ride in the original film
5:01 no wonder that credit card was declined in the movie.
I waited until just a week ago to go see it in the theater. I was the only one in the room. They cranked it up loud. I had tears in my eyes more than not during the movie. Did an amazing job with it!
Wow what an experience!
I saw it twice at the 4DX cinema with shaking seats, water spray, wind jets and strobe lights for the explosions. It was epic!
The scene with Mav and Kazansky in his office just crushed me. I was overcome with emotion, not just because of the profound connection to the past but to see Val Kilmer in such rough shape. These guys created something very special back in the 80's and this sequel absolutely hit it out of the park.
The plane in the hangar mentioned at 4:16 as the Sr-71 is in fact the SR-72 Darkstar a project that has been discontinued without flying but the SR-71 was actually operational in the Air-Force…
your attention to detail is phenomenal . Your passion and talent are superb. God bless you brother ! keep posting !
Part of this movie was filmed at my church and I’m so glad it was an amazing movie! We rented out an entire theatre and went nuts whenever we saw our church in any scenes! It was an amazing experience 😂
The Skunkworks logo was the only one I "missed" when I watched it in theaters. Seeing your breakdown explained a little deeper meaning to some than I 1st realized. I love your breakdowns like this. Thank you for your hard work and dedication. This was the 1st breakdown you've done that I knew more than 1 or 2 of. Maybe it's because I rewatched TopGun 5 or 6 times before seeing this one? I throughly enjoyed it. As a "bonus" you could have included that the movie was ready & the studio wanted to release it on a streaming platform but Tom Cruise refused. He said the money & time put into making the movie, audiences deserved the full theater experience & held it until it could go to theater.
Fun video to watch. Loved all the cool observations! Tom Cruise's performance gives this movie the emotional gravitas that makes it so good. He really knocked it out of the park on this one.
I started watching this with great skepticism. I was figuring another video of why the movie was phony.
This was a very good video showing just how much attention to detail went into this.
I love the movie. Most of the things I picked up on but a few you pointed out reinforced just how this movie crossed parallels of romance, action, suspend and yes some comedy.
Well done
11:36 Also, a couple of my friends who are Navy pilots weren't entirely sure but... they believe that the hand signals that the enemy pilot indicate to Maverick and Goose are as follows:
First signal: "Follow me/ahead."
Meaning that the enemy pilot could see Maverick was trying to signal they had no radio. So they told them to follow them.
And when Maverick sees the second signal, while still saying he has no idea what they're saying, the enemy pilot signaled a three, three, and zero.
Second signal: "Three, three, zero."
Which probably was the enemy pilot telling Maverick to turn and follow them to heading 330 to return to base. And then his wingman moved behind Maverick into a weapons envelope to begin escorting their F-14 back to base.
🙂
I'm no pilot, but because I've played AC5 enough, I also thought it was about the 330 bearing lol
Or maybe is just a Com frequency ...330.00 to enter in voice contact since military frequency works in UHF, frkm 5 to 400 MHz...maybe
Excellent debrief.
...But all I thought at the time (sitting in the backseat fully immersed in the scene) was:
"We're f***ed."
The highest reward a movie or series can recieve: a 0.25 breakdown from the Canadian Lad
unless if its marvel
Canadian lad did she hulk sooo... more like overrated movies and series
where no details go unseen and unappreciated.
Note: The SR71 Blackbird was not featured in this movie. The hypersonic jet in the film is a fictional successor to the SR71, the SR72 Darkstar. The Blackbird has a comparatively slow top speed of mach 3.3. I will say though that the film makers did a really good job on the details of Darkstar. Developed by Skunk Works, as most top secret US Airforce projects are, and all the details they show of the design are quite accurate to how an experimental hypersonic jet would likely be built. Based on a quick google search, it appears Skunk Works is actively developing a real SR72 and were consulted by the filmmakers for help making the fictional version in the film.
I didn't know what to think when I first heard they were making a Top Gun sequel. I mean, how do you pull off a decent follow up of an iconic 80s movie like that. Then I saw it. I couldn't believe what I was watching. Such an incredible movie.
I wanted to add to add two things. They used AI to create Val Kilmer's voice. But even in that scene he didn't need to say anything and it was very impactful. Just some words on the computer screen and his expression was enough to tug at anyone's heartstrings that Ice and Mav have become such good friends. But also, secondly, when Rooster says at the end "It's what my dad would have done," you could interpret that as his "dad" being both Goose and Maverick, bringing full circle that Rooster finally accepts that Maverick was doing his best to be a father figure to him. Such a great moment when they reconciled.
I read that Kilmers son voiced his Dad’s part.
@@snappo20 It was both. His son's voice and his were used as inputs to an AI "revoicer" program, afaik.
Kilmer and Cruise part was so good probably because it wasn't acting. Tom and Val have not met for so long and they were both really excited to finally see each other on this film. Kilmer specifically asked to be in the movie. It wasn't acting just 2 old Hollywood actors hanging out after so long
Kilmer worked with a london company to create an AI model for him to use at the future, BUT for this movie, they used Val's real voice. they only enhanced it for clarity.
Great Review - 4:15 This is not an SR-71 (Blackbird) it is called Darkstar and a possible mockup of the SR-72 prototype
I was about to say the same👍🏻
Exacty!
One detail easily missed is when Rooster and Maverick were in a rush to get into the F-14, they didn’t arm the ejection seat which is above and behind them, which explains why Rooster couldn’t eject. I would assume unless you’re a real Tomcat pilot or actually took the time to learn the cold start process on the DCS simulator, one would know. Now I have no idea I’d that was a coincidence and it was just for drama, but they definite didn’t arm the seats. Nice inclusion of the air compressor to start up the engines though.
you got a fact wrong. the sr 71 is the older gen of the hypersonic aircraft portrayed in the movie which is the sr72, currently only a concept and will probably stay that way
8:40 sorry brother.. but I don't think Rooster still think of Maverick killing his father..
he mad because he denied his paper for the academy...
I guess 😁
After watching this video, I can safely say that this is definitively my favorite film of all time (even after watching it 14 times in theaters)!
Dude - 14 times?! I'm jealous! Haha! This is one of the only movies I can remember ever seeing where it would be SOOO worth it to watch in the theaters over and over and over.
That's awesome! I've seen it 7X in the theater and 6X on amazon prime!! :) Saw the original the day it came out with my girlfriend in 1986.
Great work, man! That was super interesting. Go, Canada!
Just to clear this topic up a little more, The SR-71 was used through the late 90's with an aircraft also used by NASA for research flights. It needed a huge amount of support to fly from the ground crews support staff to aircrews flying refueling aircraft, with a special blend of fuel and there was a minimum of 2 flying anytime an SR-71 was up in the air. Officially it was documented to fly up to mach 3.5 and rumored to fly somewhat faster. The limiting factor was air temperature to keep the engines cool enough to not melt.
In this movie, they used a fictitious SR-72. Skunkworks was asked to help design the movie prop for this film. There is a hint out there that there is a faster "un-manned" aircraft flying now, but the SR-71 is the documented fastest "manned" aircraft to be created. The space shuttle does not count in this as it was considered a space ship. This is a ruling that aircraft must leave via a runway and return via a runway.
Technically for any record space flights, the astronaut is suppose to return in a space craft to the ground to count as a qualifying record holding flight. Yuri Gagarin's flight broke this rule as he ejected from the capsule before it landed. The Soviet's kept this a secret for years so to claim it as a "first manned space flight" status.
The "SR-71" what you said was actually the Sr-72 a theoretical concept.
I remember watching this one long after release and I was honestly blown away with how good it is.. the scenes are just ridiculous. On every level.
This is the first and last time I will ever subscribe to something on TH-cam. This is a near perfect appreciation for the absolutely perfect movie.
That is NOT an SR 71 Blackbird. SR 71 had two exposed engines on either wing not blended engines with air intakes from below. That "plane" is just Hollywood.
Don't limit yourself to marvel movies and shows lad. You just gives perspective for movies. We need it for other movies as well.
Something else to note, I'm sure someone else has said this, but the aircraft in the film isn't an SR71, it's a fictional "Darkstar" aircraft developed jointly between Lockheed skunkworks and the filmmakers for the purpose of this film. Otherwise, you're spot on!
That also wasn't an SR-71. It took obvious design cues from it, but it is a fictional aircraft (called Darkstar in the movie). Apparently though, it's been hinted at by John Nielson (Lockheed Martin’s Director of Communications for Europe, the Middle East, and Africa) that it may be visually VERY similar to the SR-72 unmanned vehicle that they're developing for the Indian Air Force.
The one hand (at 6:10) touching the canopy only makes sense if Maverick switched hands on the stick. And though you don't necessarily "need two hands" on a turn (the throttles on the left wouldn't move if you take your hand off them), switching hands so the stick is in the left (to maintain the turn) would not be a good idea for a turn hard enough to form contrails.
You can also see the wiso's handles on the sides in some of the same shots.
I just watched a dogfight video in which the pilot does exactly this.
5:28 I’m so glad you mentioned this. I work at a movie theater and 50% of the time I’d stop in this movie for the first time it was on this scene and I Awlays thought it wasn’t included in the script it’s just too natural
Nice video man, really! Keep going.
A small information for the obsessive nerd like me: at 4:11, the experimental aircraft is not an SR-71, but a SR-72, actually a drone still in phase of developement ny Lockheed.
Nevertheless, you are absolutely right about the SR-71 being discontinued for the absurd cost of exercise, and also because the purpose was recognition but today any satellite can do much better at a fraction of the cost. I actually had the amazing luck to see one of those in Paris in 1989, when it was dismissed and Lockheed was finally authorized to show it to the public for a last time. I've seen it taking off, doing a low flight on the runway and disappearing in the clouds. Read the Wikipedia page about it, it is an absolutely amazing piece of old technology capable of mach 3.5 and 75.000 ft back in 1966!
I can't wait for MI7! Tom Cruz has really gained a ton of respect from me lately.
I love this movie!! I love the 'callbacks' to the original film dialogue! I love Maverick's career arc in the film! But I ^especially^ love the casting of Jennifer Connelly! Someone who's in Maverick's demographic AND an exceptional actress too! Everyone in this film brought it all to the table! THAT"S what makes this film work! The people and real flying! Tom did very good with this film!
She's also the Admiral's daughter that Mav was messing with in the first movie.
This is one of those movies that you can watch several times. Catching things you missed the first or second time and just because the movie is so enjoyable. Even knowing everyone survives, it feels like the characters still might die. Most movies just don’t have that.
My favorite part is that all characters survive
That’s the greatest type of action building, when you are absolutely aware he’ll survive but you;re still unsure, you forget that you already know and just seat there following it with an empty mind on edge. So good
Nice overview. A couple minor quibbles. The SR-71 mistake has been pointed out. The other is the Rhino reference. The movie used the F/A-18E & F models, also known as Super Hornet. While Congress was told the SH program was just an upgrade of the earlier Hornet, it's really a new, larger and heavier aircraft. When brought onto the boats, the catapult and trap settings were very different from earlier Hornets (which were still in service), so they called it Rhino to avoid any confusion. The protruding nose was not the reason. (Another nickname is Super Bug, which brings back memories of the VW Beetle for those of us with gray hair.)
its not that the "studio" wouldnt let such aircraft fly so close.. its that the FAA would never allow it. theyd violate so many laws, the studio would be done for. its just something that isnt allowed, ever
This movie was absolutely epic 💯
Thnx for the breakdown...
I was in the Navy from 2000-2008 and had the pleasure on working on the electrical systems on the F-14A Tomcat in 2001 on the USS Enterprise and then switched to the F/A-18E Super Hornet in 2003 on the USS Nimitz
So I can relate with the movies somewhat 😊
Thank you for your service!
By far one of the best movies to come out this year!! This movie is absolutely beautiful, and man you did an incredible job with those details,it really shows how much effort you put into your videos👏🔥🔥!!! I was actually very happy to see you try something other than Marvel movies and I am thoroughly impressed,this was amazing 🙏👏🔥!!
You wouldn't imagine for how long I had waited for topgun maverick ... Mahn Since I saw the rumors it's gonna be coming soon 😂🙌🏾🙌🏾
One of the coolest noteworthy aspects of this film is the P51 notice the cone and the tail is painted in red meaning the plane is red tail aka Tuskegee pilots first black war pilots
you overlooked the most important observation...Maverick is no longer sporting a unibrow, great video!
This was an excellently made movie. Tom Cruise has grown so much as a director and producer he knows what we want. Anticipating the final mission impossible movies as I know he did a great job on those as well.
And here is a lassie. You did an incredible, stellar job here and although I probably have watched every scene dozens of times, I couldn't slow them.Learned quite a lot from you, and yes, I appreciate this film even more deeply than previously. Thank you !
Another cool thing I heard somewhere is that when in the first scene where they are flying the F-18 after Mav gets introduced, you can see some white coming off of his rudder tails, that is fuel. He is dumping fuel to make the aircraft weigh less and being more maneuverable.
When I started watching this video, I was expecting sort of a high level "here's a bunch of mistakes" blah blah narration, but instead, this was VERY good, and highly interesting. Well done, Canadian!!!
