There I was in a Cinema, expecting to re-live one of my youth's all-time favorite Blue Thunder experience and got... that. Maybe I was just a bit older by then, but man, I loved Roy's - and hated Nic's performance with a vengeance. Admittedly, I probably only went to see Sean Young (who's ethereal appearance had haunted me since Blade Runner), and duly got served... with a Phil Collins song? Man, I hate that movie. And did I say I hate it? Because I do. Funny thing is, I still like Thunder. There's probably something wrong with me. Well, back to my Hind until we can FINALLY preorder the 64.

AlphaOneSix Posted September 4, 2021 Share Posted September 4, 2021 I saw this movie in the theater on a Thursday the day before it came out. It was a special screening for 1st Battalion 3rd Aviation Regiment (my unit) and 2nd Squadron, 1st Cavalry Regiment. My unit was an Apache battalion (AH-64A) but 2-1 Cav was a Cobra unit (AH-1F). A lot of the extras in the movie were from our two units and a lot of the filming was done in our hangar and around our flight line. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Focha Posted September 8, 2021 Share Posted September 8, 2021 Firebirds is an awesome movie, at the time I was young and free! Top Gun was also a great movie. Both cheesy, but that's the way it is! The last great aviation movie I saw lately was Les chevaliers du ciel. Great filmography. 1 ASUS N552VX | i7-6700HQ @ 2.59GHz | 16 GB DDR3 | NVIDIA GF GTX 950M 4 Gb | 250 Gb SSD | 1 Tb HD SATA II Backup | TIR4 | Microsoft S.

Zeagle Posted October 23, 2021 Share Posted October 23, 2021 I thought Blue Thunder was rather well made. Thankfully I never actually watched the whole Firebirds movie. The cringe factor was just too high. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
