Watched the first Top Gun last night because it had been a while. Still a good movie, overall, but it confirmed my personal belief that Kelly McGillis was never a good-looking woman. Agreed and funny

Is she even in this one? I remember her being pretty good looking back in the day. Top Gun and Witness era.
I also remember her being something like half a foot taller than Tom Cruiseš Who isn't?

I've always found the height thing to be pretty funny in regards to Top Gun because a whole lot of pilots are scrawny little fugkers.

Hard to believe the original was near 40 years ago. The CO from the first one turns 91 this month.
Iāll take the boy later this week.

I'll wait for Prime. If I don't finish my checklist first.

Then STFU. The rest of your statement is superflous bullshit with no real bearing on this discussion other than to massage your own ego. Suckin' on my titties like you wanted me.

Oh, and a lot of you ass holes need to stop posting about the happenings of a newly released movie.
You can recommend or not recommend a movie without discussing what happens in it.
I'm thinking Flave might have to bump his etiquette thread. Well said just give it your review and not spoil it. For the cost of doing anything these days itās money well spent.

Is Maverick still riding the same motorcycle (or same model) from the original?
If so, nice touch.

Haven't seen it yet. Anything in the soundtrack to challenge Kenny Loggins' "Danger Zone"?

If so, nice touch. Jump on the huffy and pedal yo ass to a movie theatre. Count out $7 dollars from your penny jar.

Jump on the huffy and pedal yo ass to a movie theatre. Count out $7 dollars from your penny jar. Itās a Schwinn š Seen it yesterday (the movie too). Donāt know squat about Naval Aviation but from around the time the first movie came out I do recall riding around on motorcycles with a woman on the back. In the movie when Grecian Formula Tom is out joyriding with that woman, and sheās just smiling into the wind with no eye protection at all and not squinting even a little bit it made me chuckle. Thatās all I got, did not notice any bird calls at all.

Haven't seen it yet. Anything in the soundtrack to challenge Kenny Loggins' "Danger Zone"? The Soundtrack doesnāt disappoint, and it ties well to the original movie. Itās a good movie - glad I saw it in the theater, but itās harder stretch for non- āXā-ers to follow, many very sutle links between the two. Daughter was struggling to keep up, but it came together in the end for her.

Thatās really my only complaint besides F-18s arenāt as cool as F-14s.

After 36 years, it might be worthwhile watching the original TG as a refresher.

Half of the new movie is just a rerun of the first. Same lines, same scenario's. The fight scenes are the only thing original in the new version. I am a huge fan of the first but this one was a let down for me. Not much original in it.
