10-year penalty is a bit harsh. A 5-year ban is more appropriate.

Also, shouldn’t Chris Rock be punished for his jibe that sparked all of this?

> Tom Cruise's record Memorial Day opening hopes to be a game-changer for the beleaguered box office as Hollywood emerges from the pandemic.

Looks like the massive marketing campaign paid off in addition to the reception from critics.

> On the critics’ side, the movie currently boasts a 96 percent fresh rating on Rotten Tomatoes.

Interesting audience demos too.

> Moviegoers over the age of 35 — a demo that has been largely MIA since the pandemic struck — turned out in force.

> Until now, the big box office winners of the pandemic era have been superhero films fueled by moviegoers in the 18-34 age group (think Spider-Man: No Way Home). Top Gun 2 shattered that pattern in luring consumers 18 and older (teenagers were the only lagging demo).

Saw it today. It really is a film that you do need to see in a movie theatre or a comparable home theatre setup. The first film was great but the sequel has outdone itself. Great cinematography, the plot is definitely character driven. It’s a definite nostalgia hit for those who remember the first film vividly - but without the overt cheesiness. I was smiling throughout - even in tears in some.

Just a curiosity question here guys.

When you go to the cinemas do you go to the normal viewing sessions or only Gold Class?

Or a mixture depending on the movie?
