@taniwharugby wow, really? The sons of Mav and Iceman and Goose?
-
@Mokey not sure but Cruise and Kilmer starring....
-
@taniwharugby there's no way Kilmer could fit in a jet fighter now.

Don't think they'd want him playing shirtless volleyball either.

With the twist: Goose Jnr, growing up without a dad, went off the rails and is the bad guy.
Although - not sure Top Gun is really a franchise(?) which would do twists. -
Just watched Hunt for the Wilderpeople.
Julian Dennison and Sam Neill were great. Rima too. A very sweet movie, with a couple of eye-burning poignant moments.
Just wished the villains weren't quite so black cape/twirly moustache bad. I didn't mind the welfare worker so much, but the goober cop got annoying.
And why the fuck does Rhys Darby have to be in every bloody movie? He is like the least funny comedian in the country.

He's got some really stiff competition with Jeremy Elwood for the title of least funny person ever to be referred to as a comedian . Darby just edges him I reckon , future generations are going to ask what people thought of a ginger gurning twat who did silly voices the same way I do about the various characters the Topp twins do now . Ladies there's nothing fucking funny about you both repeatedly saying " Ken" .

I think every NZ "comedian" since the great Billy T died has some sort of weird support network especially when they appear on 7 days.....kinda like "Yeah, we're all unfunny fuckwits with horrific dress sense and faces for radio....but if we all laugh lamely at eachothers shit gags we might fool a few people?"
The worst one is the whale from South Africa.

Saw Pete's Dragon today. Excellent movie, quite emotional at times. Cool story with the making of it too, the whole of Tapanui got in behind it and the town was turned into a movie set for two weeks. The little kid in the opening scene is a Kiwi as well
would recommend, though probably want the kids (if you're taking them) to be 6ish or older to understand all the themes. -

Hart.That's a good shout . I should have been more specific worst NZ comedian ever,as MN5 there's an awful circle jerk involving a local rip off of good news week and " comedians " laughing each other's and their own scripted jokes. OmAt they end it says " this program was bought to you with the help of funding from NZ on air" which is basically just their way of saying " suckers! You paid for this shit".
Anyway Miranda is pretty unfunny, she'd fit in well on the NZ show .

Hunt for the Wilderpeople is pretty cool but as one reviewer pointed out it is s bit rough around the edges in places. And Darbys character sucked a fair bit .
Meh, I prefer the multitude of reviewers who thought it was excellent - and I'm in agreeance.
I'm not getting the Darby hate from a forum that thinks That Guy is funny. You can get sick of Darby pretty quickly but suggesting that he wasn't good as Murray or as the leader of the Werewolves is bullshit.

The reviewer loved it but there's little things like the cop car driving down shitty country roads and a farm driveway and being spotless when it gets there, the scene where Ricky gets separated from his uncle and he's running around pointing his gun everywhere then Hec turns up with the same rifle on his shoulder and I'd never go pig hunting with anyone who jumps off a bank with his knife out like that because I'd probably have to help carry him out when he stabbed himself . Don't get me wrong it was very cool and I'll happily watch it again.
Oh and Dar Dar Binks can fuck right off he was excruciating unfunny as usual . I'll probably fast forward through his scenes when I watch it again on sky, that'll teach him.
