The Other Top Gun

It only took 36 years for Tom Cruise to reprise his role in Top Gun: Maverick.  Somehow he looks almost the same, and The Guys definitely do not resemble their 1986 versions.  But that doesn’t mean they didn’t enjoy the film.  From Kenny Loggins to Val Kilmer, this one is full of nods to the original movie, with plenty of new plot and relationship resolutions.  And action - lots of fun, literally high-flying action.  Is it the best movie sequel ever?  Time will tell, but it’s certainly angling for a high rank on that list.  

 

Meanwhile, Jay tells of another sequel coming that will be musically inclined, Art informs of a potential Princess Leia hire by Disney that all The Guys support, and Robbie announces an previously unfinished J.R.R. Tolkien book that is in the works.  Sit back in your cockpit and listen.
