Scarface is a terrible movie.

But at least it's not Top Gun

 

[Alaric]

But at least it's not Top Gun

And doesn't star Tom Cruise

 

[ShipOfTheseus]

Or feature that unlistenable song by Berlin.

It's fairly short on Kenny Loggins though.

Interesting to see who's voted for the chick flick.

Watched Top Gun recently - for the first time.

What an absolutely dreadful piece of poo it was. Amazed what all the fuss was/is about.

Chich. He loved the beach volleyball scene.

I have never got around to watching it. (And on 80s chick films, I think I must be the only person who has never watched Dirty Dancing either).
So I would have to vote Scarface by default.

There is another film (yet to come) on this list which I think is also partly to blame but isn't Top Gun where it all started going wrong?

Chich. He loved the beach volleyball scene.

Got my vote for that scene alone. What's not to love about it.

Say hello to my little friend. fudge of al talking about yourself in the third person.

Ten people actually voted for Top Gun... cannot believe it.

I suspect that would be different if it was up against a better film.

I love Top Gun, magnificent fun, yes Tom Cruise can only play Tom Cruise, but he’s awesome at playing Tom Cruise and Tom Cruise is main character in this film, who else could do it?

Scarface isn’t half as good as it could be.

The last few Mission Impossible films have been very good and Cruise has been good in them. They brick on the recent Bond films.

If Top Gun wins Chich is going to make his directorial debut with a remake of the volleyball scene, with the actors replaced by the forum mods, and the beach by a paddling pool full of custard. 10 people don't want to deny him that special moment in his life.

He'll switch the location to Lancing Leisure Centre though

They are great, but Bond is Bond.

I hate Craig's Bond after Casino Royale
