Re: Top Gun: Maverick
Oh my. So many quotes just in the trailer alone... Time to start studying!
Looks like the military doesn't have the mandatory 65 retirment age...

As an AvCanada discussion grows longer:
-the probability of 'entitlement' being mentioned, approaches 1
-one will be accused of using bad airmanship

Top Gun came out in 1986. Meaning that in the sequel, Mav's been retired from the Navy for 15 years and is now flying 767's full of rubber dog shit out of Hong Kong for Fedex.

I'll be curious to get Tarantino's analysis on this one.

I like the shot of the Tomcat right at the end of the trailer. Even if the old girl returns in CGI only, it'd still be cool to see her take flight one last time.
Re: Top Gun: Maverick
Wonder how many original scenes will be rehashed in v2.

Re: Top Gun: Maverick
Every. Single. One. Hell, we had callbacks to the anthem, volleyball, Maverick riding a motorcycle far too close to a runway to not be airside, singing around a piano with sunglasses on. I bet that Pheonix character is the one who eats someone's wake and ends up eating a canopy by the end of it. All we need is the Righteous Brothers and Miami Sound Machine we have ourselves a movie, folks.Wonder how many original scenes will be rehashed in v2.
Oh, I'd also like to point out that if Maverick is retiring as a Captain in the USN, that's not half bad - those guys have major commands like carriers, air wings, cruisers, that sort of stuff. I'm not military or ex-military myself, but I'm pretty certain a Captain in the USN is not doing major combat operations in an F-18 or whatever space-type aircraft Maverik needs that ultra-modern space suit for.
It's the two-star Admiral giving Mav shtick for not making two-stars that I wonder about. Why isn't he a three or four-star admiral? What's his deal? What did he screw up so bad that he's still sitting inside carriers instead of pushing paper in DC?

A Captain in the USN is O-6 pay grade. Equivalent to full-bird Colonel in the Army, Marines, or USAF.DirtyDashDriver wrote: ↑Sun Jul 21, 2019 11:07 am

It's back....and not just in CGI! They borrowed one from a museum and loaded it on an aircraft carrier.
