    @mariner4life I guess that it is part 2, it is likely to work better than a remake (despite knowing the shit this usually starts...Point Break original vs the remake)

    Just my pop on Top Gun 2 ...

    But if Kilmers in it, I'll see it at the movies, regardless of reviews.

    If he's not, I'll watch it later on TV, regardless of reviews.

    I'm hoping it's just one big publicity stunt. If it's not, then TG2 is just going to be a Tom Cruise testimonial. If I was Italian, I'd say fuggedaboudid ....

    Surprised they haven't signed up Paul Feig and made it an all female cast.

    TG is one of my all time favourite movies. Saw it at the cinemas and love revisiting it. Hope they don't shit on it's legacy.

    Least the beach volley ball scene would be fun to watch...

    need to change the song though.

    anyone know what the story line is going to be? Not sure international cinema just allows you to shoot down some faceless jets with a star on them any more.

    I need to find that stand up bit someone did about how Tom Cruise only makes the same movie

    Tom Cruise is a jet pilot, a pretty good jet pilot. until he has a crisis of confidence and needs to be saved by the love of a woman so he can be a good jet pilot again
    Tom Cruise is a race care driver, a pretty good race car driver. Until he has a crisis of confidence and needs to be saved by the love of a woman so he can be a good race car driver again
    Tom Cruise is a big brother, a pretty good big brother, until...

    that will do me.

    If we are honest with ourselves, does TG really have a "legacy" to tarnish? It's the visual equivalent of cock rock.

    Don't get me wrong, i fucking love it, and i love it for its over the top cock-jockishness. It's completely ridiculous. And awesome. In equal measure.

    You can still fuck that up. Hollywood will always find a way.

    As if a pesky detail like that would stop them. They'll just make the planes bigger. Might affect performance and combat efficiency, but those things just aren't important anymore apparently.

    I will refuse to watch it, unless the Jets are tandem seat and the movie has an awesome backseater in it. Goose was the best, obvs. 😜

    It looks like Maverick is flying the F/A-18 Super Hornet this time.

    Yeah the F is just a trainer, tho some Air Forces are flying four ships with one jet a trainer version with the four ship and/or mission lead in it. The Extra brain, hands free, makes a massive difference

    Anyone watch Free Solo?, holy shit that guy has some balls. Just fucken madness if you ask me, also interesting how much stress and anxiety the filmmakers experienced knowing they could possibly watch their mate fall and die and it would be recorded. Well worth a watch.

    They could bring back Merlin (Tim Robbins).

    Apparently the guy who played Goose was ashamed of the role. Bellend.

    Anthony Edwards. He was a main star in Revenge of the nerds and a little show called ER. TG was his finest big screen moment though and he should just own it
