So you could say that this trailer is the highway, and the rest of the movie is the danger zone.


I just laughed at loud. Well played, Mauer.

Phenomenal trailer. Got me fired up for the movie. It’s almost a copy of the Dark Knight trailer.

Hot Take: Top Gun is one of the most overrated pieces of crap I've ever seen.

The only thing propping that film up is Gen X's nostalgia for it. It was only popular in the first place because TC (and Kilmer to an extent) was at his absolute apex at the time. Nothing really redeeming about it when you watch it now, and the "flying" scenes are laughably bad.

This trailer looks like it's basically the same movie shot in HD for 2019. Hard pass.

The PC revisionists have already shown their first card:

Trailer did look decent but why are they making this?


Remakes and redos are all hollywood does anymore, and it seems to be working as the movie going public are still spending money on it.

I can't within the context of 100 second trailer that features 2 single shots of women that combine for about 1 second of screen time. Homeboy back there was playing hot take with a stupid issue, trying to ruin a thread.


If you can't understand that those 2 shots were intentional in a 2 minute trailer and send a message, right or wrong, you are dense or purposefully missing it.

Synopsis: Top Gun: Maverick takes place 34 years after the events of the original film

quote:

Goose's son, who seeks to become a pilot

the kid was like 4 years old in the original. That would make him like 38 and trying to become a Navy fighter pilot?

Ah yes, the "yOu JuST wANt aTTenTiON" argument whenever someone (particularly someone who's likely younger) is making too much sense.

I think it's no coincidence you're obsessed with Kurt Russell AND felt the need to drop in.

I do appreciate your fondness for the MCU tho - especially Winter Soldier. Love how that movie is a throwback to political thrillers/espionage films of the 70s.














Russell was better in Bone Tomahawk than literally anything he did in the 80s tho.

Terrible troll, dude. All of the flight footage in Top Gun is actual F-14 Tomcats from a couple of different Navy squadrons. All carrier footage was filmed onboard the Enterprise. Flight operations are real flight ops. Top Gun footage was filmed at NAS Fallon. All of the flying scenes are real, ya clown.
