    Will go take the 7 year old to watch it this weekend. Just because there is 75 post and all are positive! Ive never seen the first Top Gun though. This will be my first time back to the theatre since Coco came out.

      Not necessary, but I think it’s better if you have seen the first one before watching this one. Lots of “throw-backs” to it that are pretty cool.

        I saw it this past weekend and thought it was awesome! I like the "corniness" of some of the old lines etc...

        Nice that Val Kilmer also got to play a small role in it....poor bugger....

          We are going back tomorrow during the day just to get seats in the 4DX. VIP seating last night was fun with the wives as they enjoyed it, but tomorrow just me and my cuzzo...lol! It was super cool to see the nod they gave to the "P-51 Mustang REDTAIL" flown by the Tuskegee Airmen in the movie also. I think only 1 or 2 of those pilots are still living.
          Nice nod to the original Skunk Works team originally led by Kelly Johnson that developed the U-2 and SR-71.....both in record time and under budget if i recall.

            Yes and Yes..........and also the USAF E-3 Sentry! One of my fraternity brothers piloted one of those during Dessert Storm.
            My cousin and I just left the 4DX version of the movie.........definitely good stuff all around and worth a second screening for us.

                    However there where two iconic scenes they left out, that I noticed. Anyone else catch them?

                    No “you lost that loving feeling”

                    They didn't sing it but the first time Maverick goes to Penny's bar you can hear it being played in the background. There was no need for speed quote. Lots of other little nods to the original though throughout the movie.

                      Me and my wife saw it tonight... VERY good movie. I saw the first one in 1986 and many times since. It was way cool how they meshed the 2 together. Best new movie I have seen in a very long time..

                      I read that the military plane rental to make the film was $11,000 per hour and I forgot how many hours but it was a bunch.

                        This. It was a great movie and worth the money. Took my woman, 2 teenage girls and 7 yo boy last night. The kids talked about how awesome it was all the way home. I like how that had an actual op/mission and trained to accomplish that with contingencies included. Good flick!

                            Couldn't wait. Bought tickets for Saturday in Alice. Little AC break after filling feeders.

                            Watching today was 2nd time in 10 years I've been to the movies. Guess you can say I liked it.
