Description

On this episode of Stage 16, O'Banion and Roberts discuss feeling "the need for speed" and the full trailer for TOP GUN: MAVERICK finally coming out. Delayed for three years, it looks as if 'Pete Mitchell' will finally make it to screens this May. Talking TOP GUN leads to a conversation about the late, great Tony Scott and some of his best films - including Tom Cruise's DAYS OF THUNDER and one of its more humorous moments. Then the guys briefly talk SCREAM (5) before getting to the two biggest entertainment news stories of the moment: Will Smith, The Oscars and 'The Slap Heard 'Round The World.' And Bruce Willis retiring from acting due to a brain condition called 'Aphasia.' They go over the hits (and some misses) from his legendary career and, finally, talk briefly about the 23rd anniversary of THE MATRIX and where they both saw the film that would eventually come to have a very personal connection for both of them.
