Is “Top Gun: Maverick” Military Propaganda?

Is “Top Gun: Maverick” Military Propaganda?
We watched Top Gun: Maverick and were blown away by one of the best sequels of all time. Tom Cruise delivers with a thrilling plot and amazing practical effects. But do movies like this help to glorify war? We ask this question as well as: What will be the future of drone warfare? Who is the movie’s unnamed “enemy”? What made this sequel so great, and what were its flaws? All this and more on the final episode of Out of Frame: Behind the Scenes (The main Out of Frame series will continue until August).

Every Star Wars Movie And Show Ranked
What’s the worst Star Wars movie of all time? The best? How did Lucas shove an excessive amount of politics into the prequels and still manage to deliver a thin story of the rise of space Hitler?

“Doctor Strange 2” Proves Marvel is Stuck In A Woke Slump?
Has Marvel entered a dark age? We’re starting to think so after getting back from Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. In this latest episode, we discuss whether Marvel has jumped the shark and why this movie in particular failed. The reasons include: They ruined the character of Dr. Strange by having him make stupid decisions, the plot is all over the place, and there are no meaningful limits to the characters’ mystical powers. Will any of the future Marvel releases be any better? We try to find some hope on this episode.

Nic Cage vs. the CIA in “Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent”
We found the most “Nicolas Cage” movie of all time, and it’s amazing. In The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent, Nic Cage plays himself, gets into an adventure with the CIA, and it’s about as crazy as you might think. On this episode, we talk about why this movie failed at the box office despite its crazy premise and exceptional execution. We also discuss who is the next Nic Cage, why Nic Cage is crazy in real life, and whether national-security agencies are incompetent, all-powerful, or a little of both.

“Everything Everywhere All At Once”: Multiverse Done Right
Everything Everywhere All At Once, the latest A24 release, is live-action Rick and Morty, but better and less nihilistic. That’s about the best way to describe this insane movie. It involves metaphysical bagels, suggestive IRS trophies, and a warmhearted family drama at the center of it all. In this episode, we talk about how this film shows that movies for adults don’t have to be boring or nihilistic, how it includes gay characters without being woke, and how it uses the multiverse trope to actually convey a positive message LINKS: Listen on other platforms: https://linktr.ee/outofframefee Out of Frame series: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLa5yyWoUx0nXUeSpxDMqznYqIjjcgLKmc Out of Frame Shorts: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLa5yyWoUx0nX8wr2JUe7XLUJYVuhka0j7 Out of Frame Podcasts YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCiS5rEmhnLwo1IG9bgr19Og Out of Frame Twitter: https://twitter.com/OutofFrameFEE Out of Frame Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/outofframefee/ Out of Frame Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/OutofFrameShow Out of Frame Discord: Out of Frame Guilded:

Is “Secrets of Dumbledore” the Worst Harry Potter Movie Yet?
Fantastic Beasts: The Secrets of Dumbledore is proof that the Harry Potter movies have jumped the shark. The latest spinoff has a meandering, confused plot, and its screenplay gives its cast nothing to work with. Although we regret having to watch this movie, it gave us a lot to talk about, including the strange politics of the Wizarding World, the hubris of authoritarianism, and more.

Season 03, Episode 13: The Lost City: A Delightful, Charming Romp
WHAT YEAR IS IT!? When we woke up this morning, we thought it was either the 80s or 00s. Why? Because “The Lost City” is the best rom-com we’ve seen since those eras. Starring Sandra Bullock, Channing Tatum, Brad Pitt, and Daniel Radcliffe, The Lost City is a story of lost love, vine-swinging adventure, and reclamation. The humor was non-woke and non-forced, the plot was incredibly tight, the casting was choice, and the experience was wonderfully entertaining.

Season 03, Episode 12: “Turning Red”: Encanto Pt.II — The Bad One
If the intent of Pixar’s new release “Turning Red” was to do exactly that to its audience, then mission accomplished. We did turn red — with anger and frustration over a muddled movie. Don’t get us wrong, it was beautiful and had some touching themes, but the execution made the movie feel like they copied Encanto and made it worse. Specifically, they tried to cram way too much into the Red Panda metaphor. What could have been a tear-jerking masterpiece was a one-sniffle-max passive piece of entertainment.

Daphne is a Project Manager and Brand Ambassador for FEE en Español, and co-host of Económetro. If you haven’t had enough of Ryan Reynolds yet, you’re in luck. In Netflix’s new film, The Adam Project, there’s two of him. Without spoiling too much, in 2022 Adam Reed (Reynolds) accidentally crash-lands from the future and reconnects with his 12-year-old self to save the world. Hijinks, hilarity, and heavy emotions ensue. The plot seemed incredible on paper, but the execution of the movie left us a little unsatisfied.

Skinny emo guys are having their moment. As if culture has come full circle since the eyeliner-laden, tear-soaked 2000s, it makes perfect sense for Robert Pattinson of sensitive vampire fame to star as Batman. But don’t let the past fool you. The sufficiently-jacked Pattinson puts on a strong, stellar performance in this noir-inspired, mysterious movie.

Season 03, Episode 9: How is “Uncharted” SO Bad?
The recent blockbuster “Uncharted,” starring Tom Holland and Mark Wahlberg, is disappointingly mediocre. Perhaps that’s not surprising for a video game movie, but it is surprising that it failed at adapting such a classic game series, yet somehow became one of the biggest movies of 2022 so far. Is “Uncharted” trying to be the discount version of Indiana Jones? Why does it fail at storytelling where Indiana Jones succeeded? Why does it generally make no sense, including its retreading of the evil billionaire trope? In the latest episode of Out of Frame: Behind the Scenes, Sean and Paul answer these questions and discuss their reaction to the war between Russia and Ukraine.

Jennifer Lawrence, Leonardo DiCaprio, Ariana Grande, Meryl Streep, Jonah Hill… At this point, you can probably guess that all these actors were in the recent Netflix original, “Don’t Look Up” – a political “satire” directed by Adam McKay. In the movie, humanity is faced with a dire threat: an extinction-grade meteor headed straight toward earth. Two scientists try to ring the alarm bell, but when they bring the news to the media, politicians, and the public, nobody takes them seriously. Meant to be a parody of the pandemic response and climate change, the movie comes off as more of a rant. It was entertaining and funny at moments, but the commentary didn’t really add up.
