Top Gun- Maverick 2020

[Destro]

Saw it last night, An amazing movie.

Don't let a chance to see it in a theater pass by.

Took the family to see it this afternoon. The wife and I loved it. I heard Steve Stevens guitar playing during the Top Gun anthem and it just gave me chills. Terrific from start to finish. Tom I think will go down as one of the greats. Now bring on the next Mission Impossible.

My son asked me why I was smiling so big when it started, I wasn’t sure how to explain it to him

I saw it yesterday. Thoroughly enjoyed it, but then I would enjoy pretty much anything with military jets. I may be the only one, but I thought the plot was patently ridiculous, full of holes, tropes, and repeats of what was in the first movie with a touch of Star Wars thrown in too.

Watching the air show in Fort Wayne today really made me appreciate the flying in the movie. Glad all these flyboys are on our side.

At the wife's behest.

You should have swung by and said hey since I am right next door. Could have sold you a camper.

Better check your inventory Monday morning. They said they could fit two RV’s inside this plane. You don’t have any of those EM-50 Urban Assault Vehicle RVs do you?

I didn’t know the BVR scope on the Tomcats was a headlight

I'd be more concerned about having to sit there and watch your husband drool over Jennifer Connolly and her 911.

Who was she in the first movie?

Who was she in the first movie?

She wasn't in it.

Who was she in the first movie?

She was the Admiral’s daughter in the first movie and Maverick was disciplined for a flyover (and more?). Penny Benjamin was referenced in the first movie but did not appear on screen.

I’m already subscribed to Ward’s channel, lots of solid info there.

Very cool. Hollywood may have their issues, but sometimes they get it right. I haven't seen it yet and I have stopped going to the theaters to see movies, but for this one, I'll go.
