@canefan Tom is obviously pulling a fair few G's there, pushing all his skin back...
He susposed to be in the actual cockpit, look legit?
A quick google search reckons he does have a pilots licence and did fly planes for the movie but I assume they took cockpit footage from another plane and merged it with the fighter plane shell for the movie. Either way it looks good and gives me wood as that movie was a highlight of my youth.
I read that he was in the cockpit, but it was a two seater with the actual pilot behind him.

Cool, I thought I read that somewhere too, looks good either way.

Hmmm, I stopped watching at 3:09 with the plane on a stick:
That is not an A4 Skyhawk unless there has been something else called that since the RNZAF had them and they appeared in the first Topgun.
Too hard to believe that he knew what he was on about to go on watching after that.

@Snowy don’t come in here with your pesky facts.
Sorry about that. Just thought I'd try something new.
Have been enjoying you and Machpants plane musings.

Uncut Gems
Movie felt a little uncut at times but it's chaotic and compelling.
Sandler is very good chanelling his inner Turturro.

@antipodean On it's way to being a cult classic already.

The trailer looked shit, it does not look like the type of movie I would ever watch, even to get laid, so if it is closet good, I'll just have to deal with never seeing it.
I do recall one poster seemed pretty excited about the trailer though...

I went to this in London 15 years ago and fcking hated it. Conversely I thought Les Mis was unbelievably good.
Thought I hated musicals until my cousin's wife got me a ticket to see Les Mis in London. Absolutely blew me away, reckon I must have seen it 4 times now. No other musical has come close, (We will Rock you/Rock of ages/Chicago/Evita/Phantom/Book of Morman ranged from just tolerable to good..but not justifying the price.
