Not to date myself, but -- I was 25 the year TG was released

Posted by: shipwreckedcrew on Dec 29, 11:25 in response to lobogotti's post and take note... Top Gun is nowhere to be found.

I was in the middle of taking grad school exams.  Pretty important, right?

I saw TG four days in a row around my exam schedule.

TG2 is going to draw men in their 50s just like me out of nostalgia.  

And my wife will still watch it on TV for the volleyball game scene.

CS: Fandango's 4 most anticipated films for 2020 (voted by 2000 users) MULAN, ETERNALS, BLACK WIDOW, WW1984 notfabio Dec 28, 14:12

IN THE HEIGHTS is probably the only real surprising entry in their top 10. NO TIME TO DIE was #5. {nm} notfabio Dec 28, 14:13

not surprising to me though. it’s going to clean up. {nm} lobogotti Dec 28, 15:56

and take note... Top Gun is nowhere to be found. {nm} lobogotti Dec 28, 16:09

Why pick on Top Gun? Could've been 11. Neither is Tenet, Onward, Minions, Ghostbusters... {nm} Antibody Dec 28, 16:35

they open the same day. {nm} lobogotti Dec 28, 17:12

and it’s over 3 {nm} lobogotti Dec 28, 17:27

and it’s over 3 {nm} lobogotti Dec 28, 17:27

and it’s over 3 {nm} lobogotti Dec 28, 17:27

sorry for the triplicate. I singled out Top Gun because they open the same day and it’s priced 3x+ over Heights. {nm} lobogotti Dec 28, 17:29

Doesn't mean what you think it means. Tenet, Onward, Minions, Ghostbusters are also priced 3X or more. {nm} Antibody Dec 28, 18:31

I’m not saying TG2 bombs, just that Heights is going to be much larger than people expect. There’s going to be a massive audience for that lobogotti Dec 28, 21:37

the teaser trailer had 30M views, so there’s certainly going to be interest. ID2 had 25M views, but barely crossed $100M. lobogotti Dec 29, 13:20

ID2 didn't have Will Smith. {nm} Antibody Dec 29, 13:40

For 2019 it was Avengers Endgame, Captain Marvel, Rise of Skywalker and Spider-Man Far From Home notfabio Dec 28, 14:16

Avengers Infinity War, Black Panther, Jurassic World Fallen Kingdom, Deadpool 2 was 2018 notfabio Dec 28, 14:17

4/4 female protagonists & directors, take that manbabies! {nm} Qix Dec 28, 14:55

How reliable is it when “Legally Blonde 3” is selected. {nm} Antibody Dec 28, 16:28

With a self-selected sample size of 2,000? Not at all reliable. {nm} DTravel Dec 28, 21:41

EXACTLY. It's not just "self-selected" -- it's limited to "millennials" if you read the blurb. shipwreckedcrew Dec 29, 11:21

Their 2019 Top 10 anticipated is mostly solid (the other categories are mostly crap) GLASS and DUMBO are oddly high vs FROZEN 2,IT2 but..... notfabio Dec 29, 12:04
