Took my gf to see it and she was blown away. I actually didn’t catch it in theaters when it came out either so that was awesome

Love TGM, but they should have killed Maverick. Would have been a solid jumping off point for a new Rooster centered storyline in the sequels.

The fact that they’re making TG3 now and trilogies make for a complete story.. I’m good with the ending

I do agree it would mean more if he sacrificed himself in the next one, like TDKR if he hadn’t made it off the bat

my wife, son and I went and saw the original Top Gun last night at the movie theater. My son said he wanted to see it on the big screen. I was 12 when it first came out and brought back memories of the blockbuster summer movies.

Mav kamikazes a tomcat into a drone carrier in top gun 3.

Skips out on Jennifer connely for a younger woman.

But she's still the beneficiary on his SGLI.

She gets that check and pays off her bar.

The end.

Maverick will be Rooster's father, so they can rip off another Star Wars plot.

As trailers go, using the "i've actually on done this twice" is one of the better unplanned winks to the audience.

+1 to the editor on that one.

Couldn’t disagree more. There doesn’t have to be some sacrifice every time to make a movie mean more. Plus I rewatch Maverick every few months or so. Would not be the case if he died.
