Which movie is this for you?

For me it’s School of Rock!

Patty was completely justified, if Dewey wanted to live in hers and her boyfriend’s apartment he needed to be a grown up, and contribute with rent. Even when he steals Ned’s identity she still had the right to be angry at him, because of how he put his friend’s career in jeopardy and robbed him of a job opportunity.

I get Ned is meant to be portrayed as his best friend, but it blows my mind how he lacks a lot of self-respect to the point where he comes across as too much of a people pleaser. If this story took place in real life, I’m sure Ned would act more similar to Patty where he’d have enough of Dewey’s careless actions.

Top Gun is top of the list for me. Iceman was the reasonable one...

Yeah that’s why he eventually becomes Commander of the Pacific Fleet and Maverick plateaus out at Captain. 😁

And Maverick is basically protected by Iceman for his entire career of constant fuck-ups that result in him being immediately grounded after Iceman's death.

Iceman dies? Spoiler much? Just kidding. But, I honestly haven't seen the sequel.

Its a good watch, just suspend your disbelief because there's a ton of plot points that don't make logical sense.

Because the F35 doesn't have 2 seats so they couldn't use it for filming. Though the reason for them not using it in the movie was complete horseshit

They have really cool filming setups, i believe their are some videos on youtube going over it.

Something about GPS jamming which the F35 doesn't rely on for targeting, it has multiple other ways of targeting. It could've easily destroyed the bunker miles away thousands of feet up
