I will seriously cry if he flies a Tomcat


The plane in the last few seconds of the trailer is a Tomcat.

ETA: I worked on Tomcats for over a decade. I'll be in the theater opening night.

Forget the landings, the in flight refueling still gives me night sweats

The opening of the trailer is wildly similar to the opening of the Rise of Skywalker teaser.

So they are going to do no less than 10 shot for shot remakes of the first movie?


That was my initial reaction as well. Seems overly gratuitous. It was good the first time I saw it, when it was called....Top Gun.

I just want to know if they brought back Sundown!


It never really clicked for me until now that that was a racially motivated call sign

The original made me want to become a Naval Aviator. It didn't happen, but this is what I would be like if I had

That's what I don't understand. I love Top Gun just like everyone else. I can go watch it right now if I want, it's one of those movies I can watch over and over and always enjoy. Not sure why people are so giddy at seeing a bunch of over the top call back references to Top Gun.

If it's just to build hype for the movie fine, but if the movie is just a carbon copy of the first one down to the same freaking scenes (beach sports scene, bar singing scene, etc.) it's pretty much everything wrong with Hollywood digging up these old movies.

I know it was just a teaser trailer, but it went WAY overboard with the nostalgia references.

OMG he has the same sunglasses.
OMG he has the same motorcycle.
OMG he did the same salute.
OMG a beach sports scene.
OMG a bar singing scene.


Yup. Hoping for the best but tempering expectations. I’ve been burned too many times with this type of thing.

This looks amazing and my level of anticipation is only surpassed by anticipating SW7.

I have concerns, though.

We see a female pilot with the call sign Phoenix. Trigger warning that another all time great movie from days past is going to be ruined because a female has to shoehorned in to be the best of the best.

I hate all of the reboots but that actually looks okay, just for the cool fighter footage. Mav being only a captain is kind of funny, but also kind of sad/corny.

So long as no Kelly McGillis. The flesh now reveals the spirit within, and that spirit be manly.

The ability of some to get triggered by the mere presence of a female is amazing.
