Check out "The Great Santini" (1979) with Robert Duvall if you have any interest in fighter jets, the military and good drama. Awesome fuckin' flick and has some great actors in their formative stages. saw it a long time ago. didn't duvall kick his son's ass in driveway basketball or something? i seem to remember a decent movie. maybe i'll watch it again. or maybe i'll just watch some stepmom porn. it's a tossup Yeah. Not the greatest father figure in that flick, but Duvall managed to humanize him. A young Blythe Danner played the mother/wife, perhaps you can work her into your sordid fantasies. Then, write down what you did and mail it off to Gwyneth Paltrow, the uber-lib daughter of Blythe. She would enjoy that.

Also, not enough parents naming their daughter "Blythe" these days.

This movie is the reason we handed out 50% more trophies than my father. I mean our parent's generation.

That's a great point, though I dont think many saw it; The only reason I did was I was an usher in the Fresh Meadows Movie Theatre when it came out, lol. Havent seen it on cable etc. since.

I was shocked; why would any son want to see TGS again? My father was a prince; opened many doors for my family. But he was a Marine, and we would discuss the "tough love / nurture" aspect of his role and mine. Which is why I am still fast today!

On a serious note, I’ll go see this shit in IMAX just for the aerial battles/jet flying.
And supposedly that nutty fuck Tom Cruise flew his own jet for his scenes. The takeoff from the aircraft carrier, the swoon over the ocean, climbing up the mountain and then going inverted...all him.
He’s a goddamn lunatic, but doubles as the hardest working man in Hollywood.

But flying a fighter jet is a lot different than flying a twin prop. I’m not sure anyone can fly jets like that, usually you have to be military to do so, not some jackoff actor.

I’ve learned to question just about nothing that this nutter sets his mind to. He’s THAT into it. Xenu bless him

The way I understand it is that it’s filmed from inside the jets, and the scenes are the actors actually in the jets experiencing the flight, but real pilots actually flying them.
