What about in the bar scene? Slider- "Mother Goose, who ass did you ķiss to get here? Goose-"Well, the list is long, but distinguished..." Slider- "Yeah, so is my Johnson."
"Who was covering Cougar while you were showboating with that MiG?" - The older I get, the more I love this film. Iceman immediately nailed the core of Maverick's problem for the film. While we were all dazzled by the inverted stunt and Maverick's escort of Cougar back to the carrier, we miss what Iceman sees immediately: *_Maverick left Cougar without cover._* Maverick is an instinctive pilot and likely the better stick handler, but Iceman is the better analyst and understands the need to work as a team. Ice isn't just a rival; he's one of the few who is willing to look through Maverick's dazzling flying and hit him with the hard truth: unless Maverick learns this lesson, _Maverick is as dangerous to his allies as his enemies._ It's not just that he left his wingman, (twice, if you count both Cougar and Hollywood), it's the attitude underneath pulling that stunt that makes him unsafe/a danger to others. At the end of the film, Maverick is still pulling the same piloting tricks and dazzling flying he did at the start of the film and at Top Gun, but his attitude has finally changed: it's not just that he won't leave his wingman, it's that the lesson finally sunk in that it's not all about him. He's part of a team, they need him, and he needs them, because all their lives are on the line.
Didn't the Stringer say Couger handed in his wings so he is sending those two up to TopGun If so could Couga's panic attacks been avoided had he had the correct team support Things that make you go Hmm...
28 years since I first saw it, seen it in excess of 100 times easily and I can literally mouth along to every quote and line without fail. I have a problem...
Sundown: 'Hey, we coulda had him man.......We coulda HAD him!!!' LOL Sundown was the realest and most underrated character in the movie. Picked up the mic after Mav mic drop singing 'You've Lost That Lovin Feelin', the line stated above, and gave genuine sympathy when Mav's mind was playing tricks on him.
In a 2 hour movie, he picked up a mic when nobody cared, said "we coulda had him," and expressed sympathy. Seems a pretty low standard to call someone underrated.
Another of my favs from this movie----Viper after the 1st HOP: 'Gennn-tle-men..........you had a helluva 1st day' 🤣 As if to say 'OHhhhh, I see YOU 2 are gonna be my class clowns!' LMBO 🤡🤡🤣
After watching the new Top Gun movie I was like who the heck is Penny Benjamin. She wasn't in the 1sr movie. Now after rewatching the 1sr one , she was briefly mentioned as being the admirals daughter he hooked up with. Haha.
Yeah I thought there was a connection on hearing that name. Seems that Maverick wasn't sure who she was, or didn't recall her name to the face going off his response to her name being mentioned....
Not gonna add: “The simple fact is you feel responsible for Goose and you have a confidence problem. Now I’m not gonna sit here and blow sunshine up your ass lieutenant…” -Viper
I watched Maverick.. did it say who the father of Penny's daughter was? Wasn't mentioned I dont think. But when Mav tries sneaking out of penny's room down the window like a teenager and her daughter catches him and says dont break my mom's heart again 😢
Title suggestion: "Random clips from Top gun minus all the best scenes and most famous quotes" Reason: Absent scenes: fly by scramble for migs Jet wash scene Goose ballad music scene locker room scene Absent quotes: "Yee Haw! Jester's dead" Take me to bed or lose me forever " " Show me the way home, honey " "the defense department regrets to inform you that your sons are dead because they were stupid" To name a few...
Sometimes a bit of ego is just a bold confidant soul who is being a bit mischievious...larger than life...at least they can fly freely and of course when they land they ground themselves again💝💝💝
@ the 1:30 mark. "you will be flying a load of rubber dog shit out of Hong Kong" ??? WHAT CAG forgets is that flying air express PAYS BIG MONEY. a LOT more than the damn Navy. I KNOW I have done BOTH
Wilhelm von Nord Bach LOL. I always said that. I know FedEx pays more than commercial pilots, but we get his point. We're supposed to think hes making 8bucks an hour on a piece of shit plane that'll be lucky to stay intact and get him safely to his destination.
I think it's more the insane challenge of landing and taking off from Kowloon airport which is an island city, mind you Maverick would make that look like a piece of cake.
How are you not going to have when Goose ask for the truck driving school number? Hey Mav do you have the number for that truck driving school, Truck Masters, I think I'm gonna need it.
