Of course, looking at the Wiki page, a 36 year O6 is WAY more plausible than a 70 year old RADM (Ed Harris' character).
Top Gun 2 Trailer
- Thread starter Dorrman
- Start date
I just want to say, FTR, I will go see this and I'll probably give a small fist pump when Mav wins the day for the good guys. Despite the shockingly unrealistic premise.
Even if it is, that’s fine for folks that love fighter jets. The original film captured some of the greatest live action shots of fighter jets ever filmed. The intro was filmed live on the deck of the USS Enterprise. That was revolutionary stuff. It’s rumored this film does even better. I say the hell with the plot. Show me the planes.
Oh - I am still going. At least we know the reason for the young Goose look-alike per the latest trailer which is a nice spin. I pray that there are no flashbacks to the previous movie but willing to bet 20 bucks that there will be.
Sadly I don't see him on the credit list. Thankfully, per the below photo, father time has been far kinder to him than it has been to Val but you probably can say that for most people.
Is that Whip aka Hollywood or Rick Rossovich aka Slider (gif of him and Maverick)?Sadly I don't see him on the credit list. Thankfully, per the below photo, father time has been far kinder to him than it has been to Val but you probably can say that for most people.
You're right. Rossovich is in the gif as Slider. I guess only Cruise and Kilmer will be back. Meg Ryan's character will be a different actress.

He was great in Roxanne!

Iceman back?!!!!…..
I wouldn’t mind getting in Monica Barbaro’s jetwash.
Initial reports are it's a fantastic summer blockbuster and in many ways surpasses the original. I just bought my tickets for May 26th.

My wife and I are going that day too. My kids just didn't get it. Watched the original with them, they thought it was dumb. Kids....
So many thoughts on this ridiculous post lol
1.
2. These ARE real pilots flying these F-18s and not CGI (just like the F-14s and A4s in the original)
3. I grew up going to air shows from the time I could walk. (Tico Warbird Airshow in Titusville, FL being my fave)
4. I was in the fracking Air Force and lived at the end of the runway at JBER, AK (F-15s every.single.day)
5. San Antonio rotates between Kelly Field and Randolph every other year for their air shows (was just there 2 weekends ago)
6. I LOVE TOP GUN!

Lol, didnt expect to see Titusville on HORT. Grew up there and went to the TICO (titusville-cocoa) show every year. The Golden Knights were the best part (army parachute team).So many thoughts on this ridiculous post lol

My favorite was the old WW2 planes blowing up cardboard Japanese ships.
Gotta love the 80s. Standing underneath some old assed ww2 planes flown by weekend warriors, dropping bombs so close you could feel the heat was completely normal and expected.
Grew up at Tyndall and Wright-Patterson(think Dayton Air Show) Seeing jets fly are something I miss immensely. I’ll be in the theater for the movie as well.
Yes the "Mig 28" in the original one played by the F-20 Tigershark was pretty authentic. Now, I have to believe a guy who has sagging jowls is a F-18 pilot. Tots.
They were actually F-5s (twin engine). F-20s are single engine.
Maybe you should attend some air shows.
Also, who do you think were flying those F-5s; auto-pilot or CGI?
Point is they weren't close to any mig. Thanks otherwise for the correction. Tom is too old and this movie will flop gun.They were actually F-5s (twin engine). F-20s are single engine.

You son of a bitch!! Have some respect for Goose!!
Has anyone told Tom he’s not a real Navy Pilot?Initial reports are it's a fantastic summer blockbuster and in many ways surpasses the original. I just bought my tickets for May 26th.

Cool anyway.
Sadly, the F-20 was never produced. A lot of folks believed it to be superior to the F-16.They were actually F-5s (twin engine). F-20s are single engine.

This film will not flop. It will be an enormous success. Bet me.
Why? The same marvel idiots will be at this one. The dumber the movie, the more people like it. It will still flop gun.
I'm not even sure what you're saying here. When I hear "flop" in terms of a film, I think of low earnings in at the box office. This film will earn a gigantic amount of money.
Then go rent Terms of Endearment or the Bridges of Madison County and enjoy your summer. The rest of us are going to watch jets do cool stuff.
So what did you want the producers in 1986 to do? How were they supposed to place MiG-29s into the film sans CGI? It's was a movie, not a documentary.
I've never known you to be so stuffy, GOHOX69.
