Yeah, oh my god the new Top Gun could have not been more in your face "look how cool and good the American military is facing evil vague but unspecified foreigners." Or how new romance movies are like "wow city life is miserable, soulless you should move out to this idilic countryside." And the ridiculous amount of movies that basically exist to ego stroke middle aged white dudes, like yes I get it you saved America or whatever using the your old man wisdom. Oh, and my favorite "isn't the nuclear family great, so great that you should put up with toxic familial relationships -- they can change just try harder."

At least in the dad movie category they've switched to the hot girl half his age being the protagonist's daughter instead of love interest.




How dare they put military coolness into a top gun movie
