- Breaking down the latest trailer for the unicorn of a film known as TOP GUN: MAVERICK (2022?). Check out the original: • Top Gun: Maverick | NE...
Views presented are my own and do not represent the views of DoD or its Components. - Krátké a kreslené filmy
For that sequence, where Tom flew less than 50 feet above the ground at 500 miles per hour. He was flown by the top pilot in the Navy, a Blue Angel pilot named “Walleye”. All of the top Navy pilots should and deserve to walk the red carpet with the actors at the premiers. If it were not for them there would be no top gun maverick! Just my humble opinion.
That kind of stuff is obviously Toms drug. Natural adrenaline. Since he doesn’t do drugs or drink. Plus he’s a psychopath. And I mean that literally. He’s a crazy person playing a normal person that’s an actor. He probably goes hunting for homeless people twice a year in some third world country.
They have duties on that day
I promise I'm more eloquent than this, but I'm trying to not bawl my eyes out. My dad has died since the 1st clips in '19... we watched the original SO. MANY. TIMES. He got surround sound waaaaaaay back and I swear it was mostly to watch Top Gun lol. He went to Aviation High in NY and learned airplane mechs. He tried to go into the AF, but his vision kept him from hoping to fly (talking 60's here) so he chose the Army. They gave him the highest clearance and he was an MP at White Sands. He thought he lucked out, but then they sent him over to VietNam... He got to fly IN a lot of stuff (1st Cav C/D Div) but wound up in the forest, fighting instead of using his trade. Picked up by Pan Am afterwards and fixed their birds for 41 years. So, I grew up flying all over the westerb hemisphere and just love the smell of jet fuel and the sound of a powerful engine.
We watched every movie that had jets in it. When we were in CA, we drove by Miramar and actually saw some flying. When we were in Hungary (where he was born), we actually found old MIG wreckage off the side of the road. We went to countless airshows. Until he died, we spent every Memorial Day weekend (and the days before it) "jet spotting" because the airport the Angels and Thunderbirds (they rotated every year), and other show jets took off from and landed was just a few miles away, so while I worked and he was at home, as soon as we'd hear the jets, we'd know the scout/lead had come to do the survey for the show. We'd run out to look for them. We were close enough to we could hear the engines start if the windows were open. On practice days and show day, we'd go sit in the cemetary next to the runway (the street next tonit was always packed, so 🤷♀️) and we both would get a rush.
I tell you all this to say THANK YOU for talking about the shots in the trailer, because it's exactly how we would have discussed it together. He never got to be a fighter pilot (and I gave up my dream of it.... how many 14 and 25 yr old girls have Tomcats and Hornets on their wall?! Guys in the Flight club: girls aren't allowed, me: not yet! Of course, not too many yrs later... BUT, didn't have 20/20, so that was that.)
Sorry for my long and rambling story, but I just wanted to let you know the unexpected way you touched my heart this AM.
I'm sorry for your loss.
@@CWLemoine thanks. It's still hard, but it gets better. :)
Having lost my father as well, you're right. Every day is a new day. You'll always think about him, but eventually you'll just hold on to the good memories.
@@CWLemoine ❤
Well, thanks again for bringing up good memories. His BDay, Memorial day, the day he died, and father's day all in a row make this time of yr hard, but it's only been almost 3 yrs. so I know it'll be a little easier every year.
You have a wonderful day hon!
sorry for your loss, i know how it feels to lose pops. hope you can ejoy the movie, for both of you.
My Marine son graduated from Top Gun prior to the movie being made. He and several of his buddies who are also TG grads were hired as extras for the bar scene. The producers wanted real Top Gun grads in the background. They all were wearing flight suits with their USN Fighter Weapons School patches visible. Based on the aviators in that scene wearing khakis it looks like was reshot. Oh well, there goes my son's acting career! The film looks to be awesome! We're really looking forward to it.
Being former military, it’s hard for me to stop focusing on “details” like uniform, grooming, behavior, etc. (I drive my wife nuts doing it) so I’m am really hoping this is as good as you hope as well, Mover.
Now think how people in IT watch "hacker" movies :D
I thought real fighter pilots already thought this was a joke after watching the first thirteen minutes last year.
You ain't alone bro...
Thank your Drill Sergeant/RDC.
The LT with the sunglasses in his blouse. Is crazy.
Tons of real flying in this movie. And tons of super high quality and seamless visual effects
I’m just hoping it doesn’t go woke. The visual and practical effects alone should make this movie a success. I believe this will be the last movie with practical effects of BFM, or at least primarily practical.
@@soonerfrac4611 why should it go woke?
Because Hollywood has established a criteria of minimums to be included in films? My point is it SHOULD NOT do so. But sadly I’m at a loss today for a film in the last 10yrs, much less the last 5 that hasn’t been inundated by woke ideology instead of reality.
Well, tons yes but almost all of it was with L39’s with those black and white circles painted on the side, so they could superimpose any jet they wanted for effect. Thank the “Patriots jet team” for their time.
As someone who doesn’t live in America, what’s with all the right wing or conservative/religious folks over there getting their knickers in a twist about “woke”. Seems like a go to for anything they don’t agree with or like, and is a distraction more than the thing they are crying about!?
Agreed, it’s all about being entertained. Managing expectations, I’m still looking forward to seeing this on the big screen. Bigger the better! Those mountain shots are amazing.
And the SOUND!! Don't forget how GOOD it's going to sound!
@@KarenRose73 Yeah I'd say about 70% of the reason to grab a theater ticket is for the audio. The remainder is for the big screen and hearing other people laugh and go "Woah!".
I was 20 years old when the original came out. I saw it at least 10 times-usually during the day when nobody was at the theater. I bought the tape and wore it out.
I’m 55 now and I’m going on opening weekend. I became a big fighter buff because of this movie. I bought all the magazines about fighter planes, read all the books. I was even into the F-22 Lightning- She was called “Lightning” by the makers before she was given the Raptor name. All that because of a silly little movie about a short guy who kills his best friend and likes to date tall girls.
Anyone who watched the documentary on the making of the original of Top Gun would know that they tried to make it realistic but realistic isn't entertainment. It wouldn't come off as a movie but rather a training video on how to have proper dog fights. I mean why else would they have a volleyball scene for no reason lol.
@@mk17173n how is the volleyball scene unrealistic? I’m sure over the years at some point some there have been naval pilots who played sand volleyball in their off time. As to why they included it in the movie, because women like good looking guys with no shirts on. Or as they say in movie business, to get butts in seats.
I think I was lucky enough to see a portion of this being filmed some years back. Dirt biking around Fallon NAS's bombing ranges and came across a big crew of camera operators and a bunch of other people. Got to sit there for a long time watching the Hornets doing all sorts of crazy stuff. Quite the fun time.
That's crazy........ I don't remember asking tho
@@nougat5357 nobody needs your permission or cares
That must’ve been so cool
Hopefully it really makes it to the theater this time. As Mover said, you have to remember it's a movie, not a documentary. I'm an old man of 63 and I can't wait to see it.
63 is old? Huh...83 is old in my world :-) (I'm 55)
As a 63 year old waiting to see this. Congrats m8. No one here was created in 1990.
5:50 Admiral Iceman wanted the Ghost of kyiv but couldn't find him and ended up choosing Maverick as a second option
Saw my first Tomcat at 17 years old in April of 75. I was a freshly minted Navy ADJ (Jet Engine mechanic) straight out "A" School in Millington. My first duty station was AIMD Powerplants NAS Miramar, 41C Shop (TF30-P-414A) the F-14s 1st engine and biggest drawback. I worked just across the street from the VF-1 Squadron Hangar. I spent a lot of time watching Tomcats land and Takeoff, I watched one crash into the Clairmont Dump (Asymmetric Flap failure on takeoff) and help pickup the parts several days later. Loved the Airplane.... hated the engine, it was the bane of my existence ;-) Can't wait to see the movie.... if they ever release it!
Love this CZcams channel! Keep up the great work. Huge fan of the first Top Gun movie even though I was only 5 when it first came out. Thanks to my parents buying it on VHS and letting me watch it a few years later, that movie among other experiences fueled a life long passion for all things aerospace. And of course, the first movie has so many great lines and one-liners... Crossing my fingers this movie is not delayed again, I've been anxiously awaiting it for far too long.
In the old days, flights suits were only worn when walking out to fly through walking back in. So khakis were worn a lot, at least on shore. My dad got his wings of gold in 1950 and was in mainly flying billets until 1966 when he went to the Armed Force Staff College. He still had to fly his 4 hours a month until the early to mid 70s.
2:24 Anybody arguing that the U.S. Navy is allowing Tom Cruise to actually fly a $67 million Super Hornet is absolutely delusional. The fact you even have to point out that he isn't actually flying the plane is kind of sad.
That’s about the level of intellect you need to sit through these dumb movies
A) insurance exists B) Tom Cruise is worth 600 million dollars
Tom is planning on going to space to shoot a movie, I'm not saying he piloted it because he didn't but its 100% not outside the realm of possibility
@@VanquishedAgain Just because he could afford to BUY 10 of these jets outright doesn't mean the US Government will allow him to fly it. Just because Elon Musk could **BUY** an aircraft carrier, doesn't mean the US Government would let him mess with it. If he wanted to buy all of the Space Shuttles, he could. But they're just not for sale.
@@VanquishedAgain true. But not an F18! I just hate these dumb movies that’s all
@@user-nw2si7hu3u you seem boring
Maverick: I just want to manage expectations.
Mover: nope, you’re not flying through that.
Great timing on that commentary.
Stumbled into your channel and have started binging all your videos. Thanks!
I love those videos ! You are so great man. Thanks a lot for entertaining us and always explain whats going on !
I've said it over on Ward's site, this may be a brain in the bucket beside the door on the way into the cinema type movie. However, I'll probably see it more than once for the visuals and nostalgia.
Same. And the slow piano that’s reminiscent of the slow piano in Jurassic Park gets me right in the feels every time.
Speaking of Ward, when are we going to get a Mover/Ward interview series?!?! *THIS MUST HAPPEN!*
Beyond dumb - 99% of this movie will be spent on Tom cruises face, the C grade acting and insultingly dumb plot. Real flying footage will be cut so fast might as well all he cgi and you’re seeing it all in these trailers anyway
I think my biggest issue with the story is that Maverick doesn't seem to have grown up at all. He's just a higher rank than the first movie. All that showing off and safety violations makes me wonder why anyone would recommend him to be an instructor, or even how he hasn't been kicked out of the Navy. It's been many years, a more interesting story would have been a mature Mav dealing with a new hotshot and the 'I was just like you' interactions.
It's been 36 years since the last movie, and Mitchell has been promoted _one_ time. What happened to up or out? For that matter how does someone his age even remain on flight status? Shouldn't he be in a desk job by now?
He was an O-3 in 1986. Now he's an O-6.
@@Caseytify I believe the movie is based in the early teens, so he is around 30 years service. Held back in rank, as you can see with Iceman’s admiral rank.
Officer shit is different, that’s for sure, but I’ve definitely seen enlisted guys hit 30+ and be E-7 or 8 only. I ETS’d in ‘08 from my Reserve unit it was also the retirement of one of our MSG’s. He had enlisted in the Navy during Vietnam as a forward observer attached to Morons, I mean…Marines. Jumped ship after that to active Army and Army Guard as a tanker, swapped to reserve and became an MP for the rest of his time. His original retirement date was October 1, 2001 and he was hit with the stop loss as an SFC. He was tactically and technically proficient, still swore like a sailor when not on patrol, but he also would buck the chain of command and tell them no when they were doing something stupid. He was hit with a second stop loss even. Finally got his third rocker in 2002 and that’s where he stayed until his retirement. Did declare sanctuary to have enough active duty time to have a full active retirement, then once secured he came back to the weekend gig.
When was all said and done I believe he had 35yr total TIS. What’s really crappy is had he gotten promoted to SGM, he automatically would have been RIFFED because in ‘08 he would’ve had too much total time but they had specifically removed E-8 from a max TIS.
@@737Maxter Maverick obviously has friends in high places because normally it's up or out in the US military. If after all of this time he's only an O6 Captain when all of his peers with around the same amount of time in the Navy are all or are about to be flag rank, then he probably should have been kicked our of the Navy years ago. In the US military you can only get passed up for promotion so many times before you either realize that you're never getting promoted again and you resign or you get booted out.
Great job Mover! Always learn something new each time. Keep 'em comin'.
Love these breakdown vids! You're an awesome guy who knows what he's talking about! keep it up
As far as Goose's death in Top Gun, Ward Carrol did a good video explaining it, basically Goose didn't follow ejection procedures. In a flat spin the canopy can hang there and be a hazard if you just pull the handle, that's why Maverick says to "watch the canopy." He should have blown the canopy first to give it a second or two to clear the ejection path before triggering the yeet-seats.
TLDR: Goose's death was realistic if procedures weren't followed.
Lol @ "yeet seats"... Viper, the technical advisor for the movie and a retired admiral and Vietnam MiG killer told a similar account. It was based on an actual ejection incident. The only question that seems to be not completely clarified, is when was the Tomcat NATOPS updated to include that step in a flat spin ejection? In other words, was it before or after Goose's ejection, chronologically?
IMO, the only kind of "opinion" that matters is someone who did this for a living and it's exactly the content I came for. I enjoyed the original and will likely enjoy the new one, but I love breakdowns from a pro. You probably did it gooder.
How you gonna enjoy what this work of fiction has to offer, if the only opinion that matters is the one wreaking the disbelief of said fiction? lol You not really gonna appreciate what the movie has to offer, if the whole time you muttering to yourself, "thats fake" in every over the top scene - and trust me, you WILL be doing just that, even if you try not to lol. They dont call Mr Lemoine, Sir Buzz Killington for nothin ya know?
@@ronniepatterson2827 Because I go in knowing it's a movie? When it comes to professions within a movie; hearing from someone who flew jets is fascinating.
I went from writing the comment, to watching the original and not a single moment of entertainment was ruined.
I promise, knowing Santa isn't real won't ruin the movies for me. :D
Sounds good : )@@LilithTitan
I love your breakdowns of certain shots etc. Very imformative to say the least. I am still very hyped for this movie. My dad took me to see Top Gun when I was like 12 or 13. He was ATC Rapcom at Castle AFB and earned his private pilot's license while in the Air Force and retired with American Airlines (ofc at the age of 65) I've been around aircraft for half my life. The reason why I even stated that was because I will never forget while watching Top Gun with my dad, we both exclaimed in the theater that the MiGs were F-5's lol. Still love the movie...even to this day. Love your channel
Mover, thanks for breaking it down so well. Lots of folks just don't know... especially if they have not been around or worked around aircraft on the flight line or flight deck.
Great dose of reality as always 🇺🇸😎
Sorry for the delay on the release. They were waiting for mandates to be lifted before they released it so I could attend.
Nice! I saw this new trailer and immediately searched to see if Mover put out a review on it! Haven't even watched your vid yet, but here we go.
As always. a great critique Mover. They certainly have had enough time to twek the movie enough. Should be good to see. Thanks!
"not a documentary" you take that back
The scene with the flares (the “hitting the brakes” move) looks like the lead is escorting the other jet to safety, which likely has no more flares so the move is done to drop back and protect the other jet. To be clear, I’m not saying this would ever be done irl or that it could but it looks like that’s what’s the movie is trying to portray.
No one mentioned that it confirms the lead didn't do a cobra. Also I liked the attention to detail on how the flares move when launched by a plane in that angle. (They still need to swap the still image for a better VFX)
My problem with that scene is the missile seems to blow up and then stop. I thought when a missile reached proximity, it detonated and hurled the debris forwards to shred the plane in front.
Exactly
@@donkeysunited I think it was done for the 'coolness' of movie magic. Someone correct me if I am wrong, but it is likely the missile would have detonated even earlier than what is shown due to its own proximity sensors and at the range in the movie it would have shredded the plane in front.
@@vr4042 it follows the same logic of "planes being too close from eachother". Having the two planes and the explosion happening nearby makes it easier to see; if you place it far, it'll be hard to get the whole picture in the big screens.
Plus, who said no plane gets hit by sharpnel? :)
Love the breakdowns, i look at this stuff the same way, since i was a kid studying flying and reading everything i could for a possible future in flying. I will never believe the Maverick would have ever been trusted to be a test pilot. Ever. Those guys are the most technical geeks out there for a very good reason. Let's hope this movie is good and fun, not too unbelievable lol.
I wanted so bad to be a fighter pilot when I was a kid because I loved this movie! Since I couldn't afford college I joined the Navy to get into an officer program to be a pilot... I ended up going nuke, went to submarines (complete opposite of what I wanted), and never got that program. The little boy in me is still sad I didn't realize that dream, but life put me in a good spot. Awesome videos Mr. Lemoine, keep em coming!
I literally searched for this review this morning! Just to see your thoughts. I agree if they dumped the SR 71 stuff should be much better. I'm hoping all the delays were because of re-shoots to make a good movie!
Oh was there no global pandemic in your neighborhood that closed the movie theaters? XD
The first movie ever released as a series of trailers.
its getting close and i went to the movies this past friday and they had it out for may so im ready!...ive been waiting for this a very long time!!
Great channel & to get myself more stoked about the movie(still on the fence about seeing it) I'll be heading up to NAS Oceana Saturday to do some "bird watching " just off the end of the runway. Excited!!
C.W.: "can't play the whole trailer cuz fair use"
Ward: "alright let's put the trailer in full screen and have no pov camera"
I was literally just thinking that as well 😂
I'm pretty sure Ward didn't try to monetize that video though. CZcams really only cares if you're trying to make money off of someone else's work.
@@gordo1701e not really, I was recently uploaded a sequence of action scenes from the Clear and Present Danger and immediately got taken down by Paramount. I'm not monetize it, nor an active CZcams partner and still got that takedown notice.
@@nabilbudiman271 I honestly can't say I'm surprised actually.
@@gordo1701e I think if a content whether it's a video clip or audio more than 5 seconds contain copyrighted content, they'll automatically detects it and depends on the original author, they could either put ads in your video with the revenue going down to their pockets or just straight up take down the video that's what I think hpw the ContentID works. It sucks but CZcams nowadays become corporatized so not really surprising
Absolutely love how Lemoine breaks down fiction with reality and common sense with spoton sarcasm. Probably the primary reason why I watch this channel.👌😅
I think it’s Hilarious when you pause the vids and clarify “no one says that” hahahahaha. I’m a new subscriber, I love your videos man, hope to be a pilot my self in the near future⚡️
Your breakdown of the film will be one to keep an eye out for, that's for sure!
The su 57 will be in full production by the time they release the movie!
We'll probably have starships out by the time this releases.
I think I read that they are in full production, one per year.
@@asquare9316 sounds like Russia to me comrad.
It already is he is
MOVER, great video. Sorry you have to keep explaining the "safety of flight" and "training rules" to the masses. As a former Naval Aviator, I agree with everything you say. SAFETY is paramount and they are not going to break those rules for a movie. Some INTEL for you... I was at China Lake, on the set when they filmed the “Dark Star” which is super imposed over Blue Angel #2 which was no shit, 15 FEET and 500 Knots over the runway. See the guy standing in the khakis next to the suburban is a real CAPT who was the military liaison for the movie from CNAF. They practiced for 3 days and the CAPT (Naval Aviator Hornet driver) gradually stepped down the Blue Angels CO (flying #2) until he was 15 Feet 500 knots over the runway…you can see the end of the runway has a drop off about 10 feet. How do I know it was 15 and 500? 1. The CAPT told me, he was pretty proud of himself, 2. I have hundreds of controls as a JTAC (was a Naval Aviator as well as I mentioned) and NEVER have I seen a “show of force” or “Panel Check” this awesome… and I have seen some pretty awesome ones…lose your wings worthy. IRT the “Dark Star” it was a prop you will see in the film. Single seat SR-71 looking prop. It was parked at VX-31. The guard shack roof blowing off is also real and happened perfectly for the last take. I don’t think that was planned, as it stayed on the first few days but was lifting off a little more on every pass. Anyways, keep up the great work!!! ~ WAK
They were doing filming on the beach at the Navy Lodge on Coronado (Volleyball stuff) in 2018. The bar being used, they also constructed onsite just down from the Navy Lodge, and I was told it was being turned over to the Navy Lodge to be ultimately used as a Beach Bar.
Hey Mover, Jeez really getting excited for it now. Both Tom Cruise and Jerry Bruckheimer were involved in the original Top Gun, and for all of its inaccuracies it was a great movie that we all loved, quote and remember. They are back again and Tom Cruise has been involved with the production company 'Skydance' for many great movies, and they are part of the act too, so they are all taking it really seriously. Apart from what you pointed out I am sure they learned from last time and have fixed a few things. I reckon this is gunna be another great movie - and certainly long anticipated. Cheers mate.
I'm kinda hoping this will be like Ace Combat, the movie, if I'm honest, just lots of crazy action with an over-the-top bad guy boss in the Felon, defeated by the Tomcat. I just wanna see the TOMCAT baby, but I'm guessing it's not gonna have a starring role, more of just a callback. Maybe Maverick upgrades to the ST-21, that would be alright too.
I hope I didn’t miss this in a previous response but, given that it’s been 30+ years since Maverick went to Top Gun, how likely is it he would be able to hang with the 20-30-year olds from a physiological context? I understand flying fighters will wipe out young, very fit pilots. I have to imagine an older pilot would have serious issues regardless of their fitness, especially given the over 3 decades of abuse!
Anyway, I read a lot of responses from fighter pilots on questions in general and I think you are, hands down, of the best at answering them.
My guess: the most logical answer is he had a break in service and came back, but given where they've lead us to believe the story is going, they're probably going to spin it as Maverick is just that good and he's been able to get waivers and sabotage his own career to avoid promotion.
Great video Mr C. W. Lemone., fighter pilot. It is very educational about the realism of military jets flying for real vs. fictional flying in action movies. Thank you a lot.
Great breakdown! Thank You for your perspective!👍🏼👌🏼
Like you said, let’s hope that this time they actually do release it, so we can enjoy it for what it is.🎞🎥
Mover: Top Gun Maverick Part 6.9
Everyone: nice
So excited for this movie, been a long 3 years.
Most of us have been waiting 30.
Good video, great review. Greetings from Buenos Aires, Argentina!
Excellent analysis as usual CW, See ya on the next one
I don't know why this reminded me of a HS friend who went to the air force (chile), his "nickname" was (translated) Dangler. Somehow he punched the hook on the viper and flew the whole training mission with the hook dangling. Don't know, I thought it was funny as hell.
You'd think that that would be caught by someone and would mean an immediate RTB...
@@MrFloppyHare I don't know the specific details, I know it happened and that's how he got his callsign
Would've been hilarious to add a water line to it to make it look like he's taking a leak
This new trailer gives a few more clues to the storyline. Seems to start very similar to the original so I'm actually hoping that means some surprises in the movie. Why do they have to launch from the carrier, fly under cruise missiles and get exposed to a SAM ? Hope its not due to a crazy ivan or to pick up a downed CO or some other reused movie cliche . Strange they end up fighting a 57 from an F14. Hope theres more to it than Rooster saying he can now trust Mav, they'd better save the world. Looking forward to being entertained hmmm ACDC opening soundtrack ?
Hey Mover like the take on the movie. 👍🏻 Hopefully we will be hearing more about you in a fast jet again soon…
Great review as always, Mover. I agree many of the scenes must be visual effects. They claim that everything is real, but there must have been a lot of editing done to make it look like that. You're an expert and I'm just an observer, but you're 100% right.
That aircraft going THAT quickly between two aircraft that are THAT close would create a low pressure bubble strong enough to suck the two formation aircraft together. They would collide and fireball. Bernoullis Principle.
It would also create a high pressure bubble in the seat of their pants.
I wonder how many actual re-edits have gone on in that time? Or if the movie has been locked in the can the whole time. Have there been audience previews with feedback, then edits (the way they ruined Blade Runner)? Did Cruise do any actually piloting? He owns and flies stunt planes and a P-51D. He is apparently going to space to film a movie, so I wonder if he got access to things you might assume a civilian would NEVER get access to. All pretty interesting. So glad Miles plays Goose's kid. He's awesome. I hope the "studio" has not ruined the movie by committee, as there are so prone to doing.
Tom Cruise isn't getting the clearance to fly these fighters, regardless of his safety record and attention to detail. That being said, if there were ever a non-military actor that the Navy would let do this, it would be Tom Cruise.
But no, he's not flying. Not with 9 cameras obstructing his vision.
Tom actually flew James Gordon around in a stunt jet plane. So he could do it. But armed forces are not going to do it.
@C.W. Lemoine I work in a movie theatre that has a ScreenX system and today I added the screenx trailer for Top Gun: Maverick to the shows and checked if the wings were in synch with the main screen and I can tell you, if you have a movie theatre with a ScreenX system nearby, I recommend watching that movie in ScreenX.
The immersion when they are flying through the canyons is probably the closest you can get to actually flying, in a movie theatre.
"no one says that" love it, great vid mate
3:46 Ghost of Kyiv stole an SU-57 and goes for Maverilk's ass. There can be only one
Looks like the flight choreography was pulled right from airforceproud flight sim videos. Because "Bubble Violations Everywhere" is the name of the game in any given AFP flight sim vid.

Hay Mover love your Channel man. Keep up the fantastic work your doing. Just a point one thing you forgot to notice with the new TOP GUN trailer. The MFD's in the superhorent cockpit in map mode aren't even moving when Maverick turns the Aircraft left or right. Hollywood budget cuts maybe? Not even the Horizontal indicator moves.
F14s are amazing, right next to A10s Both visual and just how they work! And yes, the first Top Gun as a pup might have been a factor. Great video! Movie HAS to be seen in theaters.
9:20 That's more of a SEAL tradition to honor fallen SEALs, originally a hazing ritual when newly graduated SEALs had their tridents pounded on their chest.
No, it’s a military cliche movie homoerotic tradition
@@user-nw2si7hu3u tell us more of your lifestyle.
I’ve been looking forward to this video. Exactly the content I’m here for.
Such a great video, and you have the best understanding of the actual amount of vfx in this movie. I cringe everytime other reactors say "there's zero CGI". There definitely is, but it looks good and it seems like they're not overdoing it.
Computers and animation have come a long way. At a glance a modern sports game will look like a live event.
@@andrewt.5567 Yup. I'm just glad they're basing the physics on actual flying footage. I don't want it to end up like Stealth where the flying physics seem so fake that you get taken out of the experience.
I really hope this is good. It's Tom Cruise so I think it starts from a good spot given his track record but I've been disappointed by movies I was excited for lately. The Batman, Tenet, Independence Day 2, The last Terminator...
Your certainly not alone there, mate..
Man, that's a laundry list of bad movies...
Tom Cruise usually makes great sequels so I trust it will be good. Either way, we watch for the flying, not the story
The Batman and Tenet is bad???
@@guts-141 yes. Don't let them convince you The Batman was good. It wasn't. Tenet was visually spectacular but had zero story.
I agree with you about the first shot Mover. The other issue with that shot is that it's just... wrong. The 2 level jets don't move forward enough relative to the climbing jet.
The shot effectively makes the level jets look stationary, which with my high school physics must mean that the climbing jet has the same speed in the "forward" (to the right of the shot) direction as the level jets, which means he's moving through the air sideways (as well as climbing at a 30deg angle) at the cruising speed of a Hornet...
As a wise man once said - "That's not how jets move"
That can easily be explained by Maverick talking NASA into rebuilding and (massively) upgrading the F-18 HARV, and then give it to him. 😂
The original review was how I discovered your channel. I’ve enjoyed your insight. Hopefully after May 27th we’ll all have seen it and would be interested in your review of the movie.
As usual, nice breakdown and explanation of what is 'right' and what is not.
Cheers.
Ace Combat: Maverick Trailer
Iceman made it to Commander Pacific Fleet was the best part of the trailer. Can you list his ribbons? I think I see the flying cross up there?? and is he a 4 star Admiral? Thanks
3-star
Iceman is a 4 star admiral. Check the picture. You can see his cuffs.
@@SandmanGotBeer read since 1940s the Pacific Fleet commander has been a 4 star. Would make sense they kept to that script. Go Iceman!
well I just watched your break down of TOPGUN, Maverick and I really think you nailed it. I always enjoy your takes on anything aviation. like you I hope they take out the entire SR-72 which if it exists Maverick would never be allowed to fly it. I'm a "armchair" pilot and have not the education and flight time you have collected so correct me if I'm wrong but to two totally different jets takes 2 different types of training.
keep up the fantastic job. You bring fun and education to your channel
thanks for doing these videos, as a civilian I appreciate someone explaining the military side of things. Plus you are funny!!!
As to the Su-57 I've heard that they might've created a live squadron from the 20 or so prototype/pre-production Su-57's. How usable they are is impossible to say, but if such rumors happen then there may be grain of truth in there.
There's also the fact that 20 is a lot pre-production airframes, and that was caused by huge problems with finalizing the new engines for the Su-57 (the pre-production/prototypes have Su-35 engines), and also the factory responsible for making the new fighters is having problems with getting the serial production line up and running (mainly due to the many western sanctions that they received since 2014).
Still it's not a documentary.
I believe that 3 full production su57’s have come off the production line, and of the 12 prototypes the final 3 were converted to production standard. One of those crashed, which leaves 5 flying combat ready su57’s that information being from 2021.
At the moment. From the very beginning there were a couple of shots of how the SU-57s destroyed bridges (I know about how a fake was made from the parade shots). And just a week or two ago, our military reported that 4 SU-57s in constant communication for data exchange (one aims, the second shoots, etc.) suppressed air defense in the Donbass. Well, the connection tests were successful.
There are about 16 in total, around 20 if I remember correctly.
Speaking for "4 years", it appears that Goose' son get out of a 2022 Ford Bronco. I know sometimes you get to see a preproduction car at film time like Bumblebee new Camaro in Transformers, but that new Bronco couldn't have even been a clay model back at filming...
Probably did some reshoots considering how long it's been.
There was a news article oh several months ago saying they were having to reshoot some scenes based on feedback from that 15 or so minute pre release viewing that got horrible reviews. They probably snuck it in there
There was the Bronco prototype in the movie Rampage
@@snakeshift9172 Ahh. Reshoots. That's some cool movie trivia
That isn't a new Bronco.
I was already looking forward to this video :)
Thanks for this, I love everything invovling jets and its very intersting listening to an expert.
Just curious, they have a lot of scenes where the pilot suddenly yanks back on the stick to full deflection. In the planes I fly that would either create an accelerated stall or rip the wings off…if you had enough strength to do that at high speed. Maybe you covered that previously so sorry if this is a repeat question.
Fly by wire. An F-18E/F pilot would just be asking the computer "pretty please" yanking the stick back like that (not that a real pilot ever would). The computer would govern the stress the airframe (and pilot) is actually subjected to.
It's actually hard to pop codes or cause immediate over-G damage, thanks to the impressive FCCs, unless the Pilot is an idiot.
@@jonathanranderson
I remember a DCS conversation about the override switch, spin recovery. People using it to gain kills by using that.
I point out that isn't realistic. Hell, DCS gun battles aren't. But the sim basically gives you a factory new plane every time, and no one to court-martial you when you land after having wrecked the plane's entire future. Not to mention that on a 'seasoned' plane, it is a good way to see your wings from a safe distance.
Does the F-18 have force feedback on the stick, seems pretty loose in the trailer.
@@robcampbell2164
I think force is a gaming thing. The whole point of fly by wire is you
son't have to muscle the plane around.
My one pilot in my squadron was a pilot for some of the scenes in this movie. And one thing that kinda bugs me is flying all these day missions with clear visors.
It is only for the sake of filming, so we can see the actors' faces.
@@verlowwoglojunior1728 this. The studio doesn't pay Tom Cruise's salary to not show his face
Excellent breakdown! Cant wait for release! :)
Thanks for the fun video. I love your commentary .
What gives away the splitting of the formation by the 3rd aircraft away as being impossibly fake is the reaction time of the pilots of the 2 planes. Both planes are maneuvering away from center before the 3rd plane is even visible above the canopy frame of either jet. In addition, if the 3rd jet were to split the formation in that fashion it would have to be traveling at a much higher rate of speed in the vertical than the 2 planes are traveling in the horizontal. It is pretty simple trigonometry. In order for the vertical jet to pull ahead of the formation as it passes through it would have to be traveling at their speed plus the extra speed required to be moving faster than them in a horizontal plane.
Since we know that fighter jocks always cruise at just under mach 1 this would make the speed of the vertical craft exceed the speed of sound. Sure they could be in an MOA which is cleared for supersonic flight and the apparent motion of the vertical jet would look like it was crabbing up through the formation.
I was just saying shots like this are always prohibitively-expensive to create & make it look right because of all the physics programming required in order to not trigger the viewer's "UNCANNY VALLEY" alarm in the brain
no movie regardless of what it’s based on is EVER realistic. if I started a CZcams channel and critiqued any tv show/movie that involved physical therapy/spinal rehab/sports medicine I could have 100 videos shitting on all of them about how stupid and unrealistic they are.
epic mover. You should try playing VTOL VR, its a pretty simple flight sim in VR.
When this trailer hit yesterday, I was like “gotta loop this as many times as I can, before Mover brings me back to reality” 😆
I love it when Mover says "Tomcat"
Tomcat vs Felon will be something!
Already booked my tickets to see it. Can’t wait 🤞🏼
It seems that the movie listening your review! All the points have been cleared on the movie perfectly!
MOVER! Love your deadpan sense of humor. It’s why you really are a badass! 😎
man i love hornets my favorite plane
10:00 theres no way they'd use them in combat. They really need to export them, if one were shot down in Ukraine whether it be from another fighter or a SAM that would ruin the illusion that they're undefeatable super fighters and considering nobody wants one anyway, it would kill the entire program.
that will be interesting because A- Its a Tomcat , wich are no longer in operational status por a long time (outside of Iran) B- the Fellon means its not a flashback (also the flight gear that RIO is wearing) and C- Its a F-14A or B (ejection handles on top of the seat) not even a D wich was the last ones remaing operational...
@@sparrowlt Ward Carroll did a video speculating about this, from leaked photos from the set he put together a very plausible reason for them to be in a Tomcat. If you're not worried about the plot being spoiled then go check out his video. Im pretty confident his theory is correct btw.
@@MrFarnanonical yeah i saw it yesterday and yes..its a lot of spoilers..
Also after giving it a tought .. this is a modern sequel (wich as we know are usually overblown overridicolous) of a classic movie wich had F-5s possing as a fictional MIG model with North Korea roundels flying deep into the indian ocean .. i mean.. they can literally say there is other countries flying F-14s , SU-57s or whatever and get away with it..
"Tomcats!" That's all I wanted to hear lol.... thanks Mover
IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS ❤️❤️
Mover: “Nobody says that”
*everybody who has worked with pilots* : 🙄👀
"There is no flyable tom cats in the usa"
Maybe they took a blade out of iron eagle and rented it from a middel eastern country ;)
Like Iran? 🤣
except for the Super F-14 in storage at Area 51 right next to the flying saucer. I swear I saw it there!!
@@alexander1485 im not saying its Iran... im saying the options are limited.
@@asquare9316 right.. that is ofcause also a posibility....
From what I've seen and heard they used a static F-14 display from Gillespie airfield. Rewired it so the exterior lights and interior monitors would be powered and used it probably (green screen and CG) for flying shots . Then for any on carrier shots they actually had it moved to the carrier the navy allowed them to film on which was docked at the time.
CW, man I remember watching your first vid about this movie way back when. I cannot believe how the time has flown since then and his flick is still not out lol.
Just watched the new Ghostbusters with my kids last night and I can't wait to take them to see Top Gun 2. Both movies were so impactful to me in my youth and I hope the they both are is magical to my kiddos as they were to me.
I mean...what?! Is the plot of the movie about going to Iran to steal a Tomcat to do a false flag op against Russia?! I do not get it, but I am there for it!
It will be a made up country most likely (to represent Iran), and my money is on them getting shot down and stealing a Tomcat to escape for the final action sequence.
My theory is that one of the trainees get shot down in enemy territory and for whatever reason they can't go in for a rescue. Tom finds a Tomcat in storage somehow and conducts an unofficial rescue mission in it. That or they both get shot down and somehow acquire an enemy Tomcat to escape with.
@@moriyamoriya5607 I think it's more likely the following: NOT-Iran is making nukes, so somebody has the idea to make a 'super squadron' to fly in and take them out (Iron Eagle II - minus Vipers and 'Russian' Phantoms). Maverick and Goose Jr. steal Tomcat from NOT-Iran after getting shot down. Flying too close to NOT-Syria our boys get intercepted by NOT-Russian Felon, who doesn't crush Tomcat in one circle with HOB R73 and helmet sight because the gleam from Mavericks pearly white buckteeth blinds seekers, at which point Mav goes into 'intentional' flat spin to launch 9M up Felon's ass because two circle fights are boring to Hollywood and no one in Top Gun ever actually shoots the gun.
