No movie unintentionally makes me laugh harder.

Except Roadhouse.

End of discussion.

1. Patton (the simple fact that this didn’t even make the list means you should be shot at dawn for treason and cowardice under fire)
2. Red Dawn
3. Saving Private Ryan
4. Seven Days in May
5. The Bridges at Toko-Ri

Can’t say that I would describe “TopGun” as “Bad-Ass” though. Don’t get me wrong, I loved the movie as a kid when it came out for the jet fighters, and the jet fighter parts are still AWESOME! I just wish the rest of the movie was anywhere close to watchable. Once you get past the jets the movie is really boring. Sure, it was the 80′s and movies were made this way, but sadly I don’t think TopGun holds up to the test of time. (Except for the jets! Did I mention I liked that jets?) Also, whoever soundtracked this movie MUST be shot. “Take My Breath Away” is not a horrid song. However, they use that song for EVERYTHING! It appears as the full version as well as instrumental versions repeatedly in the movie. That song is used so much it made me want to cry every time it started playing. Still….gord do I love those jets.

Us Brits lost slightly more at 450K of our countrymen. A huge price paid by all though.

Powerful stuff, that movie. One of the only, if not THE only, movie to make me cry.

I can’t of course speak for people everywhere but I consider at least some patriotism a positive thing. However, I see blind patriotism with no grounding in reality to be a far more destructive thing than open eyed contempt for the country.
I consider myself a patriot and I fly a flag in my yard, not because I love the state of my country but because I love what my country is meant to stand for and what it could be.
This is of course only the way I see it and I know that there are plenty who would not agree.

Is this also the case in real life, I’m curious?

It’s still an awesome movie though. Even if all the nerds hate on it because Jeff Goldblum hacked into an alien defense system with a Mac. They’re just jealous.
