Top Gun was originally pitched as Star Wars on Earth so I appreciated they took this approach with the sequel but fun fact my dad flew almost this exact identical mission in Top Gun Maverick in an F4 in Vietnam so if anything Star Wars stole from reality and TGM is showing us how Star Wars got the idea for their finale.
OB-Wan222
If she has trouble getting a copy of Top Gun Maverick - she can just watch Star Wars 4. It's the EXACT SAME MISSION. Fly down a canyon with people shooting at you - hit a small target - blow up the Death Star/uranium enrichment plant. It even steals the "use the force, Luke" moment and *surprise* Han Solo, I mean Hangman shows up out of nowhere to save Luke in the last seconds. Who could have seen that coming? eh, Steven Spielberg almost 50 years ago.
Thats MR. Baldamort
I have a feeling she may not like it. I have seen quite a lot of people here crap on it and knowing nat, she sees those comments and will watch it with a pre conceived notion to not like it. I hope its not the case.

Nothing makes me happier than knowing Nat will soon watch the Top Gun Saga
Ulrich Unterbrunner
One of my absolute favorite movies. Along with Hunt for Red October and the Lord of the Rings trilogy an at least annual watch
Ulrich Unterbrunner
Braveheart is based on a real person, but about everything in the movie is betraying the real person. Even the year the movie is set in the opening. Not to spoil too much, but we all know that William Wallace died at the end of his life (like all things do). And when that happened Isabella of France was 9 or 10 years old, and 12 years when she got married. And this film claimed to be historical and not fictional.
Jerry Gonzalez
Thank you for keeping Reservoir dogs on the polls, it will win one day.
Richard Rolen
I remember. Still overrated.
LightsCameraJake
Its literally not an overrated film by any stretch, when it came out it didnt do the best in the box office but only over time people started to enjoy it more and it holds up visually and cinematically which is where that movie shines.
Mauricio Morales
Speed is definitely a quintessential 90’s action flick. Just pure fun from start to finish. Btw can we get some love for The Crow here.
OB-Wan222
Are you still waiting for Top Gun Maverick Chapter 9? Or maybe you're waiting for a Goose spin-off TV series. Cope. Of course TGM had 45 years from the release of the original Star Wars story and they still couldn't come up with anything original to add to the story.
OB-Wan222
M&C also has the distinction of being a very accurate depiction of sailing in that era. An historical film that actually sticks mostly to history is always preferable to me to an almost totally fictional "historical' film like Braveheart.
Zammis
Speed has Keanu Reeves, Sandra Bullock, Dennis Hopper AND Jeff Daniels so jot that down Also, this is the same director who did the original 90s flick Twister!
Johan Sånesson
Literally any of the movies but Top Gun. Jeez.
LightsCameraJake
Except, Top Gun Maverick did it better than Star Wars, cope.
RJ Films
So many good picks!
Ben Curran
Top Gun is a good movie but its not amazing at all. Braveheart on the other hand, based on a real person and amazing. All of these are movies well worth a watch TBH.
OB-Wan222
The only problem with that plan is that after you've seen the background story you're still stuck having to watch the rest of that movie. LOL.
OB-Wan222
Top Gun Maverick is a complete rip-off of Star Wars: A New Hope. The briefings for both missions are identical. Fly down the canyon, hit the small target and blow up the bad guys. It even has a "use the force Luke" moment. A Xerox copy.
OB-Wan222
It's so popular BECAUSE it's "Ridiculous, jingoistic nonsense." I agree with the down vote and would like to add mine.
Sean Turner
As others have probably said I’d recommend watching all of Craig’s Bond films as they’re a lot more connected than you’d expect. So I’d suggest doing Quantum Of Solace before you get to Skyfall.
Stephen Lewis
Why don't you make like a tree...and get the fook outta here!
Kevin Bartelen
I'd love to see Dragon Heart show up on one of these. I think you'd really like it.
Richard Rolen
Top Gun is SO overrated. Not a terrible film, just really not a great one. Would gladly take Braveheart, Skyfall (after you watch QoS...), or Speed over that one!
Modders
If I may The Boondock Saints or Sicario. i will die on this hill. <3
Giancarlo Gasparin
Objectively, Skyfall is probably the best movie on the list, but the people NEED to see the Top Gun sequel reaction!
Noctis
Okay but a young Keanu Reeves, Sandra Bullock, Dennis Hopper AND a ridiculous plot that keeps you engaged?!?! how can you go wrong choosing Speed lol.
Jim Lent
But, wouldn't you agree Top Gun Maverick is the much better movie, even if they totally disregarded Kelly McGillis?
Zammis
Agreed. As a former Navy sailor I can tell you that we consider that movie a comedy because of how inaccurate it is to real life fighter jets/pilots.
Kev Martin
It may not be 'Citizen Kane' but there's a reason its so popular - its entertaining and people love it. And its nearly 40 years old, for context.
Daniel McGuinness
🏴🫡
Jim Lent
Any way I can post a negative vote for Top Gun? Ridiculous, jingoistic nonsense. But I'm sure it was good for recruitments. Top Gun Maverick is about 100 times better.
Josh McHugh
Freeeedommmm!
Paul G
Could be the best five ever on a poll here.
justajester
Boondock saints fits perfectly in this list and should be seen by all
Harry Reece
Errr all of them!! That’s an order 🤣🤣
LightsCameraJake
Despite how campy the first top gun movie is. I think Nat will appreciate a lot of the film shots and stunts. However so many people have crapped on that movie so much here in this community that Nat will absolutely go into it WANTING to hate it. So im not sure if this will be a good reaction. Before I wanted her to see it but so many people here in this community have done their mission to make sure nat goes into it with a bad taste. I have a feeling its going to be reaction that pisses a lot of people off who been wanting her to see this movie for a couple years now including myself. I even think she wont like Top Gun Maverick as overly critical as she can be to not simply sit back and enjoy a movie.

I was trying to remember what happened in Skyfall and realised I haven’t seen a Bond movie since Quantum. Like it burned me on the whole franchise. Still voted for Speed because it’s a perfect film. I will say Top Gun is important to watch so you understand 95% of the jokes in Hot Shots.
Jason Dolan
I’ve got the need for speed but not Keanu
Cory Silver
Pop quiz hotshot - Who writes checks their body can't cash?
Kevin Maguire
She hasn't but she needs to.
Kevin Maguire
This was a tough one. My inclination was to say SkyfaIl. Instead, I chose Top Gun, not because I like it, but because the sequel is one of the most entertaining summer blockbusters in a long time.
PopeyeNelson
I vote "ALL OF THE ABOVE", hard to pick just one!!!
Kit Thomas
I can’t just choose one of these….!😝
DP
I could be wrong but I think she has done that
fanofactionflicks
No way Jose to top gun.
Yani Dodge
I think so she can watch the sequel as well, that's why i would vote for it :P
Baggie Mark
I've never watched Reservoir Dogs, so that gets my vote.
Jason Gillman
Anything but Top Gun please!
Gary
Can this be a multiple choice? xD
Joe Angeles
Top Gun is long overdue just as Band of Brothers was
Jacketb
I voted Top Gun almost more because I want Natalie to see the sequel... I actually think Skyfall is the best movie of these 5 on their own merits though!
Navjot Singh
Please react to both Top Gun and Speed.
jamie jones
Id vote skyfall but not before doing quantum of solace. Quantum isnt the greatest movie but its not bad and its a direct continuation of casino. And they all tie together in a pretty significant way.
Tiger Chu
The Nice Guys
jamie jones
Yes there is. Everything ties together if the craig series is continued
jamie jones
Just casino. She has it in her mind to skip quantum because someone told her to, i dunno
Christopher Henderson
Come on we need her to continue the James Bond series(Daniel Craig) it’s been three years!
Andy
I love that I could say "I feel the need, the need for speed" and it could mean two movies on the list loool
LightsCameraJake
Top gun is winning I think because it's been in so many polls since this channel started and finally people are like "Yeah its time" lol.
Adam Doyle
Speed, it's quick (pun intended) and full of well-crafted excitement.
PickettsChargingPort
I'm frequently stunned by which movies do well and which don't. I'm a bit shocked top gun is doing so well. I didn't have a horse in this race as I dont eally have a preference.
Opti_Frog
It's pretty crazy to see Reservoir Dogs last in a poll, but i'm not gonna help it. Go Speed!
George Perez
Speed!
Snacky Munchies
Young Keanu in speed was awesome its what helped Boost his career thats my pic ... but Top Gun is a great film aswell but come on its KEANU !!! SPEEEEED
Erik Stevenson
She's seen Casino Royale, there's not really a need to watch QoS before Skyfall.
Erik Stevenson
Alright, really solid list all around here. Top Gun is by far the worst actual movie on this list (it's still pretty solid), but it is a gateway to Top Gun Maverick which is excellent, still think I have to vote for Skyfall which is my fav Bond film.
LightsCameraJake
Okay top gun, please win. I think the very fun, campy classic will be good reaction, then that leads into the masterpiece of Top Gun Maverick, where 90% of the movie is done by actual stunt pilots. Top Gun 1 had real stunts too, but all the actors shots were green screened and props. Not the sequal however xD
Walter Lopez
Nah Speed should be at 100% lol
K.N.
I've seen all of these and personally voted for Speed, because it's the most fun one overall for me.
Who Are These People
If you're going to watch Craig's Bond movies, go back to Lazenby's 'On Her Majesty's Secret Service' for some very significant context before you get to 'No Time to Die'.
Berry
Yeah, you might as well watch the other (modern) Bond movies too. They are all pretty good. I woulnd't mind some of the old movies either, although some of those (especially the Roger Moore era) are very cheesy.
AdrianF
Skyfall is not great if you've not seen the rest of Craig's Bonds up to it.
The Dingo
Top Gun for the win!
The Dingo
Same - I actually thought she had already seen both!
L C
Top Gun is lame and I can’t believe it’s actually winning
Raj Hudek
Not for nothing but Reservoir Dogs is an amazing film! But I get that Tarantino is just not for everyone.
Charlie Keeler
If you do Skyfall would recommend possibly doing Bond in order and watch Quantum of Solace if haven't already
Darryl Low
ha ha cheers Ian. I was torn between Braveheart and Speed, and opted for Speed this time 😃
Alan Felicia
Tough choice! Speed is fun, but, Skyfall is my pick! This is a great movie & perhaps the best out of the Daniel Craig Series! Looking forward to Nat's reaction to this one! And, yes, its OK to skip Quantum of Solace LOL!
iMarks
Top Gun has been in enough polls where its just time, its time for it to win :D
Jeff K
"I think it was called, The Bus That Couldn't Slow Down." And that's my vote.
Michael Stanley
I hope Top Gun wins and then she can do the sequel.
Darryl Low
No, that should be Skyfall 😉
adrianR31
Speed is a must. Skyfall probably the best Bond movie ever. Honestly every single one of these is a win. These are all incredible.
DP
Has she seen the other Bonds for sky fall to be in the list? They’re kind of important
Darryl Low
Happy Wednesday Nat. Voting for Speed this time. An awesome action movie, and we all need some more Keanu and Sandra B 😊
Mike Hell
Oohh Speed could be a fun one.
Skizane
Oh come on, they're all fun but Braveheart is a freaking epic with one of the best scores ever written for film, and a boat load of well deserved Oscars. Nat will be totally blown away by it; it's literally one of the best movies ever made, and she's loved other historical epics she's seen. Do what's best for your reaction...er? Reactionmaker? Reaction producer? Anyway. Think about what's best for Nat, and vote responsibly. :-D EDIT: Wait, I got it! Reactioneer! You're a professional Reactioneer, Natalie! And if your audience won't do the right thing, please pull Braveheart out of the polls and watch it for yourself, whether or not you do a reaction for it. It's a grand sweeping historical epic with music you will never forget, and I'm serious, it's widely regarded as one of the best film scores ever. Many consider it to be composer James Horner's best work, except then he went on to do the incredible score for Titanic just a few years later. Don't let the constraints of a poll cause you to miss out on one of the greats. At least plan to watch it at some point.
Mastervodo
Shouldn't Speed be on the alt channel Thursday bad movie section?
Patrick Egan
My vote is definitely for Skyfall, but have you seen Quantum Of Solace yet? It's most people's least favorite of the Daniel Craig run as James Bond, but it's by no means a terrible movie.
Randee Carreno
Happy Wednesday, Natalie! 😊 All great choices for this poll. However, "Top Gun" easily got my vote so that you can watch "Top Gun Maverick" Have a great day today! Stay Golden! 💛
nitind
For me, the Tennyson reading in Skyfall.
Troy
Voting for Top Gun
Curaitis
ALL of the them! haha Just kidding but all of them are great ones.
Chad Valencia
Ok Top Gun to Top Gun Maverick is easily gonna slay as a reaction duo. Skyfall is good for a standalone situation
Alberto Ramirez
Voting for Top Gun so we can get to Top Gun: Maverick!
Giancarlo Gasparin
Hard to go wrong with any of these, but the Top Gun sequel was sooo well made that I had to go with the OG in hopes that you’ll get to the sequel.
Gunnar Rea
Top Gun into Maverick would be great.. Otherwise, Speed
Danishprince
Damn how are so many picking Skyfall and freaking Speed over Top Gun
Josh R
I hope you'll watch X men 97 at some point! It's really fun
Ian
Tough choice nat can't really go wrong with any but went with braveheart cuz I know Darryl will appreciate it 👍
Ali D
Ouch!… This is a hard one…
Thomas Wetherell
All of these are great movies, but Top Gun is a must see.
Brian Leonard
Definitely some good ones this time. I chose Skyfall which is the only Bond movie I have seen in the theater.
DirectorInc
Having Top Gun there is just cheating now
