The first one didn't do much for me so I think I'll be skipping the 3 1/4 hours of this one...

Most I've seen of the first one was in the break room at work. So ten minute bits after commercials.

Went to see The Fabelmans Saturday afternoon and there were people with kids buying Avatar tickets. They must not have heard it was three hours long.

It’s pretty sad went the only person who can make a decent movie is Tom Cruise but of course he had the US Navy helping him. The first Top Gun was such a successful recruitment tool they wanted a repeat. Nothing new but sad when Navy recruitment propaganda is the best entertainment.

Never got around to seeing the first one. Saw the adverts for it and had zero interest.

Wasn't a particular fan of Top Gun.

The missus dragged us to see Maverick aka Top Gun 2...it wasn't terrible. Basically, a beat for beat remake of the first one.

Yeah me too, I haven't bothered to watch it yet.

Me neither but the beach volleyball scene made girls horny. Always nice to be a sausage in the room when that happens.

I liked it and think it was better than average. Silly improbable plot but I'll suspend disbelief, it was a much better film than the first one technically speaking....

That's probably Tarantino's best performance. Usually he ruins every scene, but he wasn't god awful in that....

[Seshmeister]

He just about gets a pass playing weird and creepy in From Dusk Till Dawn but I'm sure it would have been better with someone else. Fortunately after the worst effort in Django ten years ago he seems to have stopped.

[Nickdfresh]

I'm pretty he wrote Dusk but didn't direct it which might have let him focus a bit more...

I will say the flight scenes in Maverick Top Gun 2, particularly the ones where the camera is showing a POV from the cockpit looking out or the ones where the camera is affixed to the plane, made it worth watching in a movie theater.

After the 1st movie they literally had recruiting stations for the US air force in the lobbies of some cinemas, are they still doing that?

Top Gun is Navy pilots.

I remember seeing the original on a Sunday evening and there wasn't any recruiters in the lobby. I had dealt with recruiters the whole year being a senior in high school.
