‘Top Gun: Maverick’: The only movie review you need if you’re being honest about Tom Cruise

[Karen#1]

Excerpt:

When Luke Y. Thompson (AV Club) told us he’d screened Top Gun: Maverick but hadn’t been commissioned to write a review, we knew that we needed him to write one for the Underground Bunker. Our association with Luke goes back more than 20 years, to a now defunct publication, New Times Los Angeles, where he was one of the very few reviewers in the country who actually liked John Travolta’s Battlefield Earth. In other words, Luke calls them the way he sees them. We knew he’d have a unique take on Tom Cruise’s new movie, and we weren’t disappointed. (Top Gun: Maverick opens in US theaters on May 27.)~~~READ MORE

Fuck Tom Cruise - what a loser

What are your withholds? What have you done?

It appears to my obnosis skills that Tom Cruise is a mega narcissist and thinks he's all that and a bag of chips but really he's only the discarded brown pieces in the bottom of the bag.

It will be interesting to see the ticket sales.....

I won't go to his movies at all....

Plus.....Hollywood kissing to much China ass....

I loved the original television show, MISSION IMPOSSIBLE because it was all about the team and the teamwork.

I never liked the movies because the teamwork aspect was missing from the movies and it was just the Tom Cruise Show.

I did like the original Top Gun movie though but I can just imagine the sequel laying it all on a little too thick with Tom Cruise the Superhero. Come to think of it, isn't that what it always was with people like him?

Lol, a pretty scathing review.

I can just image TC yelling at him thru his mansion walls to slam his ethics back in.....

Cruise is never going to live down that couch jumping episode, is he? But the constant commenting on that is getting a little old now.

Tom saluting DM was pretty bad too.....

Tom saluting DM was pretty bad too.....

Actually, it was fucking insulting to pretty much every Sea Org Member. Tom Cruise wasn't a Sea Org member as he never did Product 0 on the EPF like everyone else. On top of that, there is the matter of David "Darth Midget" Miscavige being a totally fake Right Arm rate as he never conned a Sea Org vessel (for which he was never qualified); and, therefore - per Flag Order - D.M. was not and is not entitled to officer courtesies such as salutes in the first place.

Yea.....that bit of TV history is not going to go away, I'm afraid.

T.C. couch jumping happened in 1998. Last time I checked, it is now 2022, so 24 years ago. What was his sin? A bit over-enthusiastic about his love for Nicole Kidman (listen to the recorded dialogue between he and Oprah) and maybe jumping on Oprah's couch could be considered rude. The critic community pretty consistently omits why he was jumping on the couch whenever using this incident to portray T.C. as a crazy person.

 

[Lee #28]

Yea….He was in LOVE!

Didn’t David Miscavige have some Sea Org slaves plant a field of flowers for them to run around in at Int Base?

 

[Lee #28]

Funny, just remembered my Dad was a Naval Aviator and Flight Instructor during WWII…

He met my Mom during that time.

 

[Lee #28]

It’s kinda funny, if Nicole’s Father was a Psychologist….she would forever be an Illegal PC… as would her children…. And Tom Cruise would always be a PTS.

Thems the rules….
Why did he go there?

Edited: (ask me how I know....)

I thought it was all about Katie Holmes?

The timelines are a better fit.

Nope. T.C. was married to Nicole Kidman from 1990-2001, the Oprah episode was in 1998.

This article I found claims it's from 2005 and it was all about Katie. He was supposed to be doing a promo for his War of the Worlds movie, but had a little distraction from it.

The Couch Jump That Rocked Hollywood

Tom Cruise’s 2005 appearance on ‘The Oprah Winfrey Show’ was an iconic episode of television—and a turning point for how we discuss and understand celebrities

Hmmm, Katie Holmes married him in April 2005, so I guess that would make a good deal more sense.

So, wrong wife, is that what you all are getting at?

But wife #2 was the field of wheat, right?
