I thought it was about computer dudes doing sweet flips and whatnot. Though that does make an interesting comparison as everyone’s favorite dick pill is colloquially referred to as “the little blue pill”.

As someone who has only seen the movie via cultural osmosis, the last page or two has been pretty surreal.

In the movie Top Gun, the copilot character is named Goose. This is a subtle nod to the bird of the same name as it can fly and has a noodle-ly neck which seems like it might be on the flimsy side.

A Goofy Movie is named after the main character, but also serves as a good descriptor of the contents of the film.

Tom Cruise was selected as the lead for Top Gun due to unique characteristics he shared with Navy pilots. Namely that he’s short as hell, eats crayons, and is illiterate. What is not generally know is that these qualities are unique to Marine pilots and no one noticed the mistake until production had already started. By then it was too costly to make the needed changes and the movie moved forward as originally planned.

BaldDwarfOnPCP posted:Are marine pilots also really comfortable with innuendo? I’m watching the documentary (yes I know it isn’t) Generation Kill and those marines can take or leave it. Although it’s set two decades later. The folks in GK were actors playing marines. Your average grunt will not be concerned with innuendo as they can not grasp the subject. They simply will chomp away at any presented examples of Crayola for substance. It’s one of the first things they test for in the corps. Individuals that pause are usually identified as officer candidates as they are more able to allocate resources without eating them.

Here's a fun little Christmas detail. During the Jim Carey iteration of The Grinch, the Whos are shown having a wild Christmas party during the origin reveal scene. Notably there is a quick cut showing a large amount of keys being deposited in a bowl...

Aphrodite posted:“The dogs are in the enclosed pool area” was one of the messages Chris Benoit sent out to a friend during the murder-suicide. Wow. I was thinking it was a "dump the bodies in the hog pen to dispose of the evidence" sort of thing, but that's somehow even darker.

I got around to watching that new Chip n Dale movie. If you shut off the parts of your brain screaming about nostalgia cash ins and “Jesus gently caress the state of media IP ownership is dire” it’s a really fun little ride with tons of little nods and gags in the background. One thing I’d love to know is if Movie Sonic was intended to be there the whole time or if it was a sub in for another character. It’s been long enough since the first movie that the timelines likely line up but it seems like it would be pretty close to get that planned and implemented.

Huh, that explains the ear gag a bit more then. I’m not sure if I would have preferred that or what they ended up going with.

I mean that’s kind of the one of the core points of the movie and is the villain’s core motivation so may as well go hard in the paint.

Zebulon posted:They released storyboards that show at one point at least they'd considered Jar Jar Binks for the Ugly Sonic role. That would have been a better call imo. US is a interesting get but that cultural inflection point is already fading away (though I suspect that’s the point). Fukkin JarJar is eternal.

In Top Gun: Maverick noted illiterate Thomas Cruise flies an aircraft called a “Hornet”. This is actually based on an aircraft of the same name flown by the real world US Navy (the organization the one in the movie is based off of).

I’m Top Gun: Maverick: Thom Cruize is chastised for frequently breaking the rules and not following orders over the course of his career in the Army Air Corps. This is a clever nod to his real world inspiration, Tom Cruise, not being able to read. How can you follow orders if you don’t know what they are?
