Because it's the greatest movie ever made. Ever. Period.

Or not, but it's damn fun to watch.

Top Gun appeals to our sense of pride and other more mutable traits in the presence of intellect.

I am not afraid of my instincts and my desire to watch a 'blockbuster ' now and then.

It isn't an epic film like 'life is beautiful' but it is a respected film for its entertainment factor.

Top gun truly is one of the gayest movies ever. Gay as in homo-erotic. Seriously. Just think of the volleyball scene.

Yes it is, and we didn't even begin to have a clue as to how whacko Tommy is back then. I have NEVER liked this movie. It has always been a cheesy over the top piece of Hollywood crap in my book.

You know, many of us just saw a bunch of guys playing volleyball in that scene. However, what people like you take from a scene like that is another matter it seems. As George Costanza once said after getting a massage from a man... "I think it moved", well, maybe that sums up what happened to you during that scene in Top Gun. And that is sad.

I agree with both of the above.

Yeah, when I saw the volleyball scene, instead of thinking "OMG GAY!" I was thinking "Wow, what a blatant concession to the girls in the audience"

Aye, but but on the otherhand, this was an 80s movie, and as arrogant as anything made in that decade. I never found it to be homosexual. Being secure in my manhood, I jsut found it cocky and arrogant, just as fighter pilots should be

Hopefully I can finish college with a good clean record and then go into the navy. Seriously.


You can guess what my dream is, but my execution is a disaster so far

It might not fare well with you. If you judge it by todays standards it is merely an old blockbuster that is almsot irrelevant in our times.

The amount of arrogance, cockyness, and machoism, as you can see by previous posts, is now interpreted by many as homosexual, and they fail to appreciate the sentiment of brotherhood that the director went for, however crude you may think it was.


Honestly, I've seen it a billion times as a kid, and have always loved it. The comradery, and the basicness of the plot but the importance of the lesson, however simple and obvious, always striked a chord with me.

It's all over for me. I've already served in the military (Israel) and it wasn't the Air Force...

TG was a good movie, even it is 20 years old. Decent story, nice action sequences <for its time>, good soundtrack music.

The only thing that I don't like is the MiGs are not really MiGs, they are F-5 jets.

You are a veteran though. ABSOLUTELY no shame in that.


Hold your head up high son. You might not have been a Pete Mitchell, but you're good in my book and in those of many others, whether you commanded an Nimitz-class carrier, shuttled some VP around all day, or spent your time in the mess.

ABSOLUTELY nothing to be ashamed about



Unless you went fvking 'full metal jacket' on our asses and have somethign to hide:laugh:


edit: the movie was a portrayal of NAVY pilots

The elite best of the best, and they made them better
