    Top Gun: Maverick

    Top Gun 2 for those who don’t know...



    Love or hate Tom Cruise...I have always respected his craft. Dude has always done his own stunts (like Jackie Chan). I’m not really sure if he’s really flying that F-18...or if he’s on a second cockpit seat behind the pilot...but dude is sure really taking off from that aircraft carrier with plenty of G-Forces to boot, that’s no CGI/blue screen trickery.

    Looks like a fun Summer popcorn flick, just like the first Top Gun.

      I like Tom Cruise. Not a big fan of Top Gun, but this looks interesting.

        Hopefully no volleyball scene this time, through.

        And every woman I knew between 45 and 55 loves that scene in the first movie.

          I've always hated Tom Cruise with a passion.

          The closest I've ever seen of Top Gun was Hot Shots

              I've never seen Top Gun and I probably never will. The summer it came out i was working full time starting at 7 am, i missed a lot of pop culture that year.

              I was totally lost during "Hot Shots", I kid you not, I didn't get the references.

                Don’t get me wrong...Top Gun is not in my top 500, but it was a nice light popcorn flick.

                I won’t be seeing the sequel at the theater...it’s a Redbox rental for me.

                  Top Gun is my wife's favorite movie. I like it but not as much as her. It was certainly a defining moment in 80s cinema not only for igniting the Cruise career but also for soundtracks.

                  How many top ten songs came off that album that were specifically written for the movie? Nobody does that anymore, they all pull from existing tunes and pay royalties. Nobody writes badasss songs for a film that actually also become hits. Rocky 4 and Purple Rain are other notables in the soundtrack category.
                  I almost had a psychic girlfriend but she dumped me before we met.

                  If anyone here believes in psychokinesis, please raise my hand.

                      A mere three years later, here we are

                      Maverick's on its way to making a billion bucks. Who's seen it?

                        I watched it. My short review. Fantastic action, serviceable plot.

                          Enjoyable sequel.
                          Especially the trench run.

                            3 year old thread…

                            Did I mention Redbox rental? Do they even exist anymore?

                              Hey, 2019 Brian, you still have not seen it and you do not care. Also, invest in Purelle.
