Watched it on Sky last night....

...TOP GUN...

Absolutely hilarious

There's so much to laugh about...

• Goose's paedo 'tache
• Maverick's pishy, flabby wee pecs - obviously trying to be an adonis like Kilmer or Rossovich
• The badly diguised gay subtext - a big testosterone-fuelled, macho movie with hardly any minge in it? Hmmmm....
• Kelly McGillis's big bappit coupon and her seamed stockings
• The complete lack of sexual chemistry between the leads - I don't think Maverick actually pumps it at any stage
• The Cruiser's blank expression passing for angst and emotion
• The diabolical faux "hard rock" soundtrack - complete with Kenny Loggins nasal vocals.
• The stupid, stupid macho "call signs" - Maverick, Iceman, Viper ad nauseum - gie's fucking peace - it should be Poofman, Wankyboy and Spunkbags
• The inevitable "What I'm about to tell you about your disgraced father is classified, son" revelation.
• Val Kilmer's woodentop "acting" - I've seen a bag of lentils emote more convincingly than that. To be fair to the Valmiester, he's been good in subsequesnt movies
• But above all it's the risible dialogue with McGillis in her 80's power-dress suit telling hairy-arsed pilots how to outmanouver MIGs "Double helix, parabolic, inverted triple-loops, with a twist of lemon" Pish! - if you're going to contrive to cast a burd in a role like that, at least 3 of the guys should get to shag it...at the same time...up the erse and everything!

Having said all that, it's completely and utterly watchable - like a car crash or dogging (so they tell me), you know you shouldn't, but you just can't help it.

I use to love Airplane and Airplane 2 but then i watched them in Australia.

They are known as Flying High 1 & 2 all the music has been changed (due to legal difficulties) and heaps of the jokes have been changed but just dubbed over the original actors with voices that sound nothing like the actors.

The Jive speak scenes were completely ruined.

Now my favourite comedy is Young Frankenstein.

On the new topic of the thread......
I'm a fan of Adam Sandler's early films - Billy Maddison and Happy Gilmore.
Super Troopers is an absolute gem of a comedy that I like better on every watch.
Zoolander too.
Sorry to get all modern america on you!

LOL

I must agree Zoolander is fandabbydozie!

Some good choices so far, but no Blues Brothers? Trading Places? Beverly Hills Cop? Animal House? Spinal Tap?

AGREED.

and anything (almost) with Mr Nielsen in it.
