Yeah. Surprised this movie hasn’t already been made.

Right Stuff is really the closest thing at this point.

I think I prefer Gosling in a comedic role, though. His comic timing and delivery are as good as it gets. I really enjoyed The Nice Guys.

This is my thought.
I'll wait and see what people think first, not that they are that reliable.

Today, Universal hid the link to the original trailer on their channel and then reuploaded the trailer. I'm not sure why, as the trailer seems to be the same. If there's a difference, it's minor. But for reference, here is the link to newly-uploaded trailer, which, again, seems to be the same as the previously-uploaded one:

The Nice Guys is fantastic, probably in my top 15. Can't wait for the sequel... assuming it happens.

He was outstanding in The Big Short and Blade Runner.

Finally watched it. Don't understand the controversy surrounding it. Perhaps it was interviews given by the cast but whatever. Wasn't bad.

I haven’t seen it yet. Now that it is at Red Box and will likely be hitting the streaming circuit soon, I should see it soon.

From what I remember of the controversy, it had to do with the American whitewash and interviews with the cast and crew basically taking all American pride away from the achievement. Again, I haven’t seen it, so I can’t speak directly to how it is handled in the film.

Yeah, that's why I mentioned the cast. Had to be their statements. I didn't feel an American white wash based on the content of the movie. It's more a personal journey of Armstrong.

They added a lot of a personal element to the story and maybe some felt that took too away from the usa achievement. The necklace. Etc.

Maybe but I think it was pretty clear there was a lot of that spirit too. A lot of camradery among the astronuats as wll.
