tom is kool dude goat
Nobody cares about ol Ron hubbard believer he’s a weirdo probably a Hollywood pedophile too . I hope the movie bombs go woke go broke .
I love Tom all the way to the end of time!!
So the question now, is.... can Tom Cruise memes now beat.... Chuck Norris memes? (Insert Top Gun bell gong here)
👍
Tom Cruise rejecting ideas for a second film of Top Gun until he thought it could work out, really speaks a lot about him and his search for perfection.
Just saw the movie and OMG!!! Glad I could watch it because Top Gun is one of my favorite movies and still is!
@@joseortiz939 To me, it was better than the first. Thats so rare lol
@@OAwesomeO rewatched the first one two days ago, and watched TG:Maverick yesterday and I gotta admit that I also prefer the 2nd one !
@@OAwesomeO same, I couldn't believe a sequel to an 80's classic could've actually been better than the original, especially in today's hollywood. Tom is GOAT
Sequels are rarely better than the original because they are money grabbers. Not for him. This is one sequel that was worth the wait.
The amount of effort this man puts into his movies. You don't see that anymore. He's the real last action hero.
@Ralph Reilly it's just the millennial version of the boomer's "well that's something you dont see everyday"
We're just going to forget that he is a Scientologist? Are people really this stupid? Oh wait...
@@blo0mfilter868 Can you stop like being so American it's disgusting.
I thought the Last Action Heroes was Arnold Schwarzenegger?
Stallone still does.
I'm a 42 year old man, and I haven't been to a movie that made me.. made me.. smile from ear to ear in a really long time. This one was just awesome.
Same man. It was so good. Honestly restored my faith in humanity in some weird way with how popular it is
Same- Just now tonight - beaming
I totally share your sentiments
I have never enjoyed a visit to the cinema as much as I did watching this film. I was so immersed and on the edge of my seat the whole time. I was emotional when I came out of that movie. It was everything that I wanted from going to the cinema to watch a movie, a proper cinematic experience! Thank you Tom Cruise.
Love the movie. I watched it at the drive-in , the f-14 tomcat theft and the reaction when they figure out who is in it . Is priceless!!
There is something about Tom's ability to look like he's enjoying every interview he ever does - he fully engages the hosts and genuinely just looks so amped to be there. He's a true master at his craft, if only we all took the same approach to life. He'll go down in history as one of the GOAT's.
This converation felt so plastic, and every interview of his feels that way. I think these is nothing behind those eyes.
@@aryavart296 I agree, the way he talks about curiosity and when he laughs seems fake asf
SCIENTOLOGY VIP👽🏦
@@aryavart296 He could easily establish his own Church/Cult‼️
what does that even mean?
And here we go. Best interview with Tom thus far. No surprise
Yep. If Ali has a longer format show, I’d listen to it if I could.
Great 👍 interview
Awful interview. It's embarrassing
@@zigarum i mean to each their own. What is embarrassing about it, I’ve no idea 😂. Maybe you could be a bit more specific
It was a very good interview, felt very relaxed and not scripted.
I’ve got to say that Top Gun 2 was a top tier movie. I left the theater and could have went back in and watched it again.
I watched it twice in theater, i just had too. I was amazed.
@@jacobroden9718 gonna be going back this week! Just one of those movies you have to see on the big screen.
I did just that 😆 Went straight back in, but in the motion seats this time!
Went back the next day lol
Highly recommend going back to see it a 2nd time if you loved. The film is doing amazing in theaters, and there's only so many times you'll get to see it on a big screen along a bunch of other people watching it.
It’s amazing and sad how many remakes and reboots are out here that are money grabs. Then, Tom comes out with this. A movie that cares about plot, storylines, practical effects, and paying respect to the film that came before….rather than “subverting” expectations.
It will be so nice to see Marvel get spanked at the box office, ngl.
I agree with you, especially the subverting expectations. How many times have we seen a blockbuster show or movie ruined at the end (game of thrones for example) because they don't want to do the ending the whole show has been leading towards but instead want to shock the audiences and or change it to reflect some trending woke ideology of the day (Arya killing the Night King or Danerys burning Kings Landing and Jons storyline totally abandoned for feminism). Do the predictable ending, it's the right ending and what audiences want to see, or be creative with it and have some surprises but don't ruin the whole show because you think it's edgy to do some ending nobody figured out that makes no sense.
and before the movie starts there's a quick video of him thanking the audience for watching it in theaters. I know he's an actor and all that but combined with how much effort he put into his movies, the gratitude felt genuine.
It’s why we’re not hearing about toxic top gun fans rn
@@xxwhispersxx2856 they have been, already. And there will be more of that for them, in the future. They forgot completely their mission. Movie pukers, no more than that, by now!
No one is doing it like him. Tom Cruise is the definition of a movie star. A master of his craft, an unbelievably dedicated man with a great work ethic. He is truly a once-in-a-lifetime talent.
Glad to hear from you. Thank you for your love and support... Where are you watching from?
@@tomcruise3703 Omg the man himself.
@@englishbutfrench9613 Yeah How long have you been my fan?
@@tomcruise3703 Since 1932
@@englishbutfrench9613 Wow,which of my movies are your favourite?
There really is nothing like a Tom Cruise movie. He's perfecting the art of the blockbuster better than anyone else, and it's always exciting to see what he's gonna do next!
So true and sad to think he might be the last true Hollywood icon we have, all the new gender fluid actors that Hollywood produces now are garbage and never do anything good...
He’s one of the last movie stars. People go to the cinema because it’s Tom Cruise doing crazy shit
Tom is not only perfecting the Blockbuster he is single Handedly saving the Blockbuster! Thanks you Mr Cruise
@@Oklm23 yeah fook those blue haired gender fluid weirdos who trying to preach everywhere, they fucking ruining movies and video games, Tom crusie is legend for this movie, #not woke not go broke 👍👍👍
Jackie Chan?
He's one of the last actors from the glamorous Hollywood, when celebrities were mysterious and didn't have social media presence. I'm glad he stayed that way.
love ur take
I mean most Scientologists stay away from social media so it’s really not that surprising lol.
Old hollywood was definitely better. Little exposure about their personal life makes it feel exclusive. Now over exposure and unlimited access from internet and social media somehow have ruined the mood.
He went out of his way to have the Tom Cruise chalkboards on the internet by 2001 (when I noticed) before my space in 2003 and Facebook. That was when you had to pay for a url domain. He has Facebook now like a large number of people among other things now.
@@Wermified I mean will smith is a Scientologist so…..
This guy is the definition of a movie star
no sh*t
He's a salesman for the military industrial complex, or as simpletons call him, a "star."
He's THAT "character", portrayed by Johnny Cage in the movie "Mortal Kombat"
The last true movie star
Tom has mastered the art of being polite to every single question thrown at him. Just when you think he's going to kick off after a daft question he laughs and comes back with an educated response. Genius.
Well….. unless your Matt lauer 😂
@@deannabanana1983 or Peter Overton from 60 minutes😉
they are briefed on what they can ask
Unless you ask about a poke lmfao
Peter overton would say otherwise....watch the video, this man turned evil.
Crazy stories aside, Tom Cruise is still a Hollywood icon. The man is dedicated and he actually CARES about every single person working on the projects he's on.
He's the greatest movie star of all time, simple as that!
Actually met him once at a film festival party, only spoke for like 5 minutes, but he was the kindest celebrity I'd ever met. Just a genuinely nice man who cares about his business.
I'll just leave this here Scientologist. Yup. Bat $&it crazy cult leader, but yes. He genuinely "cares"
@@Octopussy31st kind, nice? lol bullshit.
@Big Chap so you're one of those people "no agenda" yeah right
Tom is one of if not the most dedicated working actor currently. I mean the man commits to the craft, does all his stunts, helps the cast and teaches them about what they’ll be doing especially with what he did for top gun 2 and teaching the cast on the flights and the workouts etc. the dude is almost 60 and has the energy as if he were back in the 80s. He never lost that desire to make movies like a lot of actors do when they reach a certain point in their life.
TC is the Beyonce of hollywood!! Where are the Hornets!!
One of the news papers said he is likely the last of the real Film Stars..He is enormously popular and very well liked for his sheer hard work.. who can forget seeing him climbing up the outside of the Burj Khalifa!!
The most dedicated. There is no competition
Age is JUST a number that’s all chuck those numbers away it just doesn’t matter, don’t use those numbers! It is said we are as young as the one We are holding! O Yes and Tom is VERY happy 👏👍😃. Stay lucky and Enjoy enjoy all. Kindest regards. JB.
He never lost that lovin' feeling
The best part about this great interview is when Tom says it’s great to see you in person and then whispers “and no mask”. Lol I love it. I remember his “melt down” audio over covid. He was just trying to keep his film rolling.
I saw the film last night. I can't stop thinking about it. It filled me with hope, joy and appreciation. Life affirming and brilliant.
Just watched the movie...and for a guy who grew up in the 80's and remembers Top Gun, it's so comforting watching actors of today mature and rekindle the romance after almost 40 years. Honestly, Tom deserves an oscar for his dedication to action movies....he really is the last action movie star still at the top of his game.
I loved it but I gotta say, it was a little overhyped. Maybe because I watched the original that morning before I watched the sequel, but there's just no comparison. Amazing flying sequences though.
90% cgi crap overrated 👍
@@sjeb1967 Nowhere near 90%. A huge amount of what you see is real. The main CGI are the missiles and bomb dropping, but all the actors are actually flying in the jets.
@@sjeb1967 most of it was practical effects.
@@sjeb1967 oh *sherry*
“You told me to not think, just do!” 😂. Just watched it in the theater. Such an amazing movie!
I saw it already last week I want to see it again is the best movie in this times
Tom stated it with great humility, but I couldn't help but laugh... "This great role, Maverick, how the heck did you get it?" ... "Well, they'd been begging me for about a year" LMAO Tom Cruise is such a legend and has been at the top of his game for pretty much his entire career!
Glad to hear from you. Thank you for your love and support.. Where are you watching from?
"It was worth the wait", has a WHOLE new meaning with Top Gun: Maverick. I will be going to see it a 4th time, tomorrow. It elevates the the standards for sequels to the next level.
It feels like two old friends meet again and talk about life and movies...
This guy is a LEGEND . He does everything Stunts , flying , acting , and has a P-51 🙌
Don't forget running. :)
His own P-51 wow absolutely awesome. A legend of a aircraft. I going movie tonight, looking forward to it.
@@District.24 he can do anything
@@greenarrow219 his P-51 is in the movie
Doesn't fly the fighter jet in the film sorry to burst your bubble 👍🤣
He's aging, but he still got that sparkle thing, charisma about him. I see a young boy in him, bless Tom- many years to come👌👍💖⚘️⚘️
He can play Hugh Hef in a bio pic when he gets gray.
@@SHNASTTV Oh, no!!! Don’t belittle Tom like that! Yikes! There are a few others I can see playing that role, but I hope he wouldn’t lower himself to that.
Love or hate this guy, but you have to give him that he took the whole action movie genre to the next level. Extreme passion combined with huge experience and focus is the recipe for success. Not only in movies. Look at Bill Gates or Steve Jobs and alikes. We should be grateful that such dedication exists.
I love Tom cruise, I don’t care about his personal life that on him, but as a actor and a person he is one of a kind there no one like him, he is the last of actors in Hollywood he is a super star
bill gates, ploaeeze
Bill Gates…..reallyyy…..a billionaire who is trying to be your doctor….
Top Gun Maverick is an incredible movie... The flight scenes are just epic.
the plot was like ehhh
If only flight scenes , other than that cheap stupid scenario….left theater in 30 mins to preserve saint memories
The star power Tom has is something no one else has anymore. He’s the last pure movie star that there is and cinema simply wouldn’t be the same without him.
He's probably the last one of a dying breed of actors in Hollywood but he still refuses to die.
would you like his baby?
he loves his job that he wants it to be perfect and be the best of the best. he really puts in a lot of work and ideas and i really adore that about his work ethic.
I love Ali's interviews. He always knows how to get people at ease and ask good questions, not those dumb "give me spoilers" questions the late night circuits all do. Ali is great.
So glad Tom is finally happy meeting people and releasing this movie. I know he was stressed tf out shooting this whole movie during the lockdown. I bet he’s glad that it’s over and it turned out to be a great success
Hi fan Thanks for the support, I really appreciate ❤️
@Fiber Oats Yea, we're friends. I met him in the Church of Scientology in LA.
he filmed the movie before the lockdowns happened though, they just delayed the release til now because of the pandemic, they didn't film during the pandemic. Regardless I do agree he must be estatic that its out now
@@teadora99 yeah, the movie shot during COVID was mission impossible. Top Gun was shot around 2018.
One of the all time Hollywood greats! Tom Cruise bringing the crazy practical stunts 😀
0:00 I don't think I have ever seen any actor greet an interviewer like that before, standing smiling with a firm handshake. He welcomed the interviewer as if he was the star of the show!! GOAT🔥🔥
So true man....i absolutely love tom
Noticed that too, what a guy.
I really respect Tom Cruise. He puts true detail and effort in to his work and does it with genuine passion and it shows.
A perfectionist like Tom knows when enough sequels is enough sequels. His drive for perfection acts as a conscious of sorts. He is amazing in my eyes and I hope he keeps doing what he does best.
I absolutely LOVED Top Gun Maverick!! That is how a second film is supposed to be. I love how they kept the original music. This movie is seriously the best!!
It's not often when a sequel is as good as the original but I think Top Gun: Maverick might actually be one of those movies. It's absolutely fantastic.
It's up there with Terminator, amazing sequels.
It’s better than the original
its not just as good, I think its better. What a film
@@DJKHOTTA Terminator 2 yes, better than the original, otherwise not so much.
I really like it more than the first movie and I like the first one A LOT!
The ability to touch people without doing it physically is not is not given, it’s earned! This man knows the right buttons to push at the right time! Well done Tom!
It's incredible how Tom looks like he's in his 30's yet he's double that age. He must have Alien blood
Children’s blood. Close
Lots of cosmetic surgery lol, I wish celebrities were more transparent about that
@@branscombe_ fr bro. adrenochrome
Nah, he does looks like 40+
he looks 50
I saw a late night showing in London. It really is a love letter to classic film and cinema. The music and soft melody leading to the Danger Zone song at the beginning will bring a tear to your eye. The movie has everything. A fantastic pace, great story telling and heals the pain from the first. Tom Cruise has defeated any concept that cinema is dead. This movie needs to be experienced in the theater.
Ali has never disappointed me in his interviews. The focus of his questions always enjoy themselves while getting to talk about what they love. And Tom... the twinkles in his eyes man. If I had 1/10 of the commitment and fortitude he demonstrates to his craft, I'd be accomplishing some serious feats in this world.
Agreed, i know some people just feel he sucks up to the celebs too much and is too gushing, but he still delivers the goods and more importantly, as a viewer you just feel so damn good after watching his interviews. Like i'm smiling I'm feeling really happy, the world needs more of those feelings!!
He does a great job. But don't forget it's the BBC. A 1 :1 with Cruise for 10+ minutes? That's the size, relevance and reach of the BBC. There many more journalists out there who could pull that off, but simply won't get the same opportunity. Which is understandable, there are only so many interviews a star can do. So of course studios and management will plan accordingly and give the biggest interviews to the biggest outlets.
and you've just joined their little fk-fest
Gotta love how approachable he is. Tom seems like the kinda of guy if you saw him out somewhere and said hi he’d stop for a short conversation. I like that.
My dad sat me down and made me watch Top Gun a few weeks ago, then we watched Top Gun: Maverick the next day. Ever since I’ve been obsessed! I really think this movie will change generations.
It’s not just that Tom is a fantastic actor; it’s that he’s a human being who’s truly living life to its limit. He has an insane work ethic and he doesn’t waste a second of his life dawdling around. Many actors who’ve been in the business as long as he is has also gotten jaded from all the thousands of fan encounters, but even till today, Tom still makes an effort to spend time with and greet all his fans. It’s ridiculous that he’s turning 60 this year, and he’s still a bona fide action star
Wow. All I’ve ever heard on tv from people who know him or work with his is that he’s a colossal jerk. He does make great movies though! 😁
@@kellyharney2385 You really need to hear out the other side of the story. There’s countless of co-workers and directors who praise Cruise’s professionalism and work ethics. I personally find these anecdotes to be much believable than anonymous accounts from attention-seeking people. Hell, I could be going around the internet claiming to have worked with him and insisting he’s a colossal jerk - people would still buy it.
This interview has the most normal Tom laughing to date, that's the power of Ali
Tom actually being a pilot and him being so focused on authenticity is a big part of the film, the work they’ve done with serving pilots is why it’s exceeding everyone’s expectations. To get planes to look close on camera means you have to be much closer than you ever would in reality. Yet it was done for real
The great thing about Maverick was that it took all the expectations in its stride and delivered. All the Goose aftermath was convincingly played out. Tomcat disciples like me got a "punch the air" moment. It came up with a convincing mission. It hit the target.
Almost 60 and looks like he's in his early 40s. Love this man 😍
Two legends
one of the greatest action movies I've ever seen! The action scenes were absolutely stunning but there were also lots of emotional moments. One of the best Tom Cruise for sure!
I filmed a scene with Tom in Cocktail. During our dialogue we shared a fake bottle of Jack Daniel's which was pretty cool.(scene was edited from the film) I will say Tom Cruise was an ultra generous man and a world class human being. Each time I see him I think of the young 25 year old guys we were then. Fond memory indeed.
It is an occasion to an Oscar. It is not always about the actor roll as a "dramatic" actor but the art and dedication behind, of putting a master piece together. And I am sure he won't slap anyone in the face.
😂😂👍
We have to appreciate him while he's still here. A legend no doubt. Oh also Tom Cruise too.
🤣😂🤣👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Well played sir, this day you win the interwebs…👍🏻
@@JesseCohen I accept with honours.
What's really beautiful about the character Maverick in TGM is how much of his trainer/mentor approach hangs on his loss of Goose. Not only does he overdo himself in trying to protect Rooster, but he insists that the training must cater to his teams survival. It is not enough to merely accomplish the core mission, but it's also important that his teammates make it back alive. Now, that's the kind of leadership that people will line up in droves behind.
Agree 100%! 👍
My dad is a pilot and quotes top gun every time I’m in the plane with him. He also buzzes our house regularly.
😂😂👍
Tom Cruise is always fun in interviews. One of few who actually looks like he enjoys it! Always so nice, positive and loving every aspect of being a star!
Really nice guy! Doing really nice things like the time he banished his teenage niece from the family for kissing her boyfriend in his house, having her sent to a scientology brainwashing camp, or the time he had actress Nazanin Boniadi punished for failing to please him as a girlfriend by getting her to scrub the floor in a scientology compound using a toothbrush. Such a nice guy!

Tom's passion for film is admirable. A true legend.
His main mission is to entertain people. It might seem “impossible”, but he succeeds each and every time! He pushes himself harder and harder with what he sets out to achieve, a true model for most of us, I could say.
This film was absolutely breathtaking. Brought back memories that were long forgotten
I saw Top Gun: Maverick today and what a masterpiece. I cried at least 10 times watching this movie. Tom Cruise is the biggest movie star on the planet.
I really HOPE you're girl because I've heard a lot of today's Beta male millennials were crying during this move. 😭 It's ONLY OK for men to cry during one movie and that's Bamby.
up your meds
The new Top Gun is fantastic! It is even more fantastic because of all the nods to all the good parts of the original. Nothing fancy, just plain good nostalgia with an upgrade. 😃
I agree!
and they didn't show up as a copycat!
Saw it last night at the movies. Blown away! (Spoiler Below) The only thing I was hoping for was just the presence of "Viper" and "Stinger" at "Iceman's" funeral. Just seeing one shot of the both of them, retired and honoring "Ice" would have made me cream my jeans! Miles Teller's "Rooster" was made up to the point where in some shots, you really thought you were looking at his old man, "Goose." New and fresh with glimpses of the original was sublime. I'll be seeing this film again on the big screen.
@@PhantomFilmAustralia that's what my dad said! he likes viper the most. the first thing he asked before we went to see this movie, "is viper gonna be in it?" if we're allowed to be extra picky about this movie, seeing how they mentioned rooster's mom, they could at least do similar thing about viper and stinger. and totally agree on miles teller! kudos to whoever got to cast him as rooster.
@@sigmarizky8473 Whereas i disagree, casting Miles Teller ruined the whole movie for me, i cannot stand him.
Top Gun is the most exciting and memorable movie in my memory.. still thrilling and heart thumping and I think in my heart I was always waiting for the sequel.

Minority Report was the movie that made me fall in love with him as an actor. That's the Tom Cruise I grew up with. I haven't even seen the Mission Impossible movies yet but I see how hard he works as an actor and I love seeing him in films. Top Gun Maverick was a treat of a movie and I am glad I to have seen it in theaters, 'pandemic' be damned.

@@reymichaelsungazornosa4040 I xan see why people don't like 2 but 2 had rememberable moments. Introduced a spy tech they still use till this day. Also i love the skyscraper scene.

Tom is a legendary actor, never regret buying ticket for a Tom Cruise movie!
Never! Ita always worth the ticket price
@Ralph Reilly Yea, that was nothing special but still fun to watch.

All the stars are so genuinely happy to be interviewed by this guy. You can feel the joy. Best movie interviewer.
I love this interviewer, really has a great rapport with Tom. I can watch these two talk about movies all day.
The fact that Tom owns and flys a P51 mustang is the coolest most legendary thing i have ever known. This is a man living his life to the fullest, huge respect!
So I have a partner at work who use to work on the base in Lemoore. He met cruise and Connelly. He said Tom Cruise was super nice, as was Connelly. And the part that surprised me... He said Tom Cruise flew to the base everyday in the P51. Then at the end of the day would fly out in the P51. Pretty awesome. 👍
We love you Tom Thank you for entertaining us for so long with such quality
Glad to hear from you. Thank you for your love and support.. Where are you watching from?
My respect for him has skyrocketed after watching a lot of videos about him and the new movie in the past few days and of course watching the movie and enjoying it immensely. He’s just a great actor with an honest passion for the movies he’s starring in and their making. I hope he will continue to do so and wish to thank him for all the great work so far.
Thank you so much for the adorable comment and unending support for my Art Katie I appreciate
This is one of the best interviewers I’ve ever come across, actually allows the interviewee to speak fully, and Tom being Tom just makes it so much more better!
I thought that also, a very relaxed interview. No forced questions, no silly questions. Just couple guys chatting about memories from the Top Gun movie, it's influences on culture and looking forward to the new movie.
Tom Cruise is by far the most famous Hollywood actor out there but also appears to be the most humble. The guy just loves what he does.
The ultimate life goal...get paid to do what you love doing.
He's one of a kind. He said he was going to become the biggest actor in Hollywood and he did it. He was 20 years old demanding to be involved in all phases of production! He was born to do this.
This interviewer is one of the best I've ever seen. He is relatable, asks smart questions and is likable while gets the attention of the interviewy
I loved that at the end he whispers: "no masks"
Love that he still recalls making Legend with Ridley. So many actors can't remember half their films they've made and Legend was one of his first films he ever made. Also, can I say how lowkey awesome it is that every time he talk it's like he's narrating his own biography.
This is Tom Cruise week, we got top gun Maverick coming right after Mission Impossible dead reckoning trailer. This interview took my breath away.
Thank god that sequel was made, one of the best movies I ever saw
Tom Cruise is the true definition of a dedicated Movie Super star. How can anyone not love him. He is the most OSCAR deserving worthy superstar in Hollywood.
Ali Plumb is just a brilliant interviewer. Every. Time.
They should revive Film 22 and give him free reign
“If you think up there, you’re dead.” Sounds like he did a lot of thinking before making Top Gun 2. I think we’re glad he did.
Really focused and uplifting interview with Tom Cruise. I was 19 when film Legend came out and I loved it. Tom just exudes professionalism and confidence. Just wonderful to listen to him. Accomplished so much. Superb actor and producer. My favourite movies are the Mission Impossible franchise
Tom is the Midas of the modern times...whatever touches turns to Gold...Super professional ...he created a whole filming making nomenclature that inspired and will continue to inspire next generation in Hollywood...
What a perfectly descriptive word: -nomenclature- to use in your comment! Aside from being the pure truth & is such a beautifully genuine comment, would like to thank you for the intelligence you’ve applied here with your choice of such descriptive words that are too often substituted with slang and/or abbreviations, lacking accuracy & depth of thought, much less knowledge nor applications. And just as you’ve accurately reflected on Hollywood’s gauge of ‘authenticity’ or lack thereof, I greatly appreciate your references to even the nuances that can be the distinguishing factors that separate & preclude such genuinely artistic talent to actors/actresses views & creations. Tom Cruise is one of the few modern actors who actually bring a visionary’s perspective of transcending realms and produce it’s literal effects on an audience.
Best Tom Cruise run is in Mission Impossible Fallout as he's chasing Henry Cavill, but this interview is amazing! This fella needs to do all interviews for any celebrity from here on out!
He has like a run in the firm I think and he turns a corner it looked like an anime lol Corridor did a run challenge haha no one could get the angle cruise got
That was INSANE. Also the fight in the bathroom and the motorbike and car chases. Well...and the helicopter scene, which was beyond insanity
@@patbateman9187 Haha, pretty much the whole movie! The action sequences this man comes up with are always incredible!
People call him strange for his beliefs, his connections to Scientology, his jumping on Oprah’s couch moment, but. Damn fine actor, always a gentleman and so damn personable you would truly be awestruck if you met him in real life. I wish him every success and I’ll be watching Maverick soon.
He is Maverick IRL. If the studios had been in control of this movie, they would have said no to him so many times.
Greatest talent in Hollywood, this man commits 100% for his fans. Absolute legend.
Tom cruise nails every movie he has done. He is possibly the best entertainer in HOLLYWOOD
his character is the same in every film
I think he's keeping Jack Reacher pretty quiet.
@@titteryenot1136 I recommend you to watch Born in 4th of July, Magnolia, The Last Samurai, Colateral and Tropic Thunder
@@titteryenot1136 No it's not. Are you blind AND deaf? Born on the Fourth of July, Valkyrie, Legend, Risky Business, The Color of Money, Interview With The Vampire, Top Gun, Magnolia, Minority Report, Tropic Thunder, Far and Away, Eyes Wide Shut.....every one of those films he played a character unique to that film and far different than each other film in the list. Get a Clue. Have you even WATCHED any of those films?
@@philosopher0076 Don’t forget Days of Thunder, Cocktail, Jerry Maguire, and A Few Good Men! They don’t mention those a lot these days, but they were great movies, & Cocktail had a fantastic soundtrack! Not to mention the bartender stunts Tom did in Cocktail. Too cool, & so much fun! The others weren’t action films, but they were still fun movies to watch, & made us both laugh & cheer his characters on.
This guy is THE movie star. Absolutely love him and his films.
BBC radio, among all the interviews I have watched on Top Gun 2, this is the most cultured and composed one. Tom looked like he was enjoying this conversation. Well done.
Just watched Maverick at IMAX. Wow. Just wow! When you go to see a Tom Cruise movie prepare to be entertained. You can’t help but love this guy. The movie takes you through so many emotions. Go see it!
I´m close to 50 now, I watched the first one (who hasn´t right?) and ofc I became a fan. I didn´t expect much from the sequel, but little did I know it would make me feel emotional 3 times, the last one in tears while walking away after the movie ended.. so yeah it was well worth it... For me it was almost a 4 hour commute back and forth to the theater, but it was worth it! Nostalgia was way high and so it was also a trip down memory lane!
May we all find the passion that drives us to reach the full capability of our potential like Tom has done and inspired for generations. Growing up on his movies gives me such an appreciation for his dedication to his craft. What an impressive human being.
Tom is such a genuine guy. Loved Top Gun Maverick. I wish my mum was here with me to watch it, she was a huge Top Gun Fan she even had the same jacket and aviators back in the 80s. Thankyou Tom for making this movie.
