Hmmm. Will he fly an F-35? Will he do a barrel roll? Will he do a fly by of RLH's mother ship? Is he relegated to being a flight instructor? What size lifts will be in his shoes? Was the first one that long ago? Holy shnikes! 1986! Will Kenny Loggins do a new theme song?

Man, Hollywood really is running out of ideas. I wonder if we’ll see a sequel to The Seekers? Or maybe The Maltese Falcon...

Somehow I “don’t feel the need” to watch this movie when it comes out.

The big question is will Ice be there?
Will Maverick still be writing checks his body can’t cash?
To: rktman
Prediction: He names his plane “Goose”

Perhaps Anthony Edwards can do the the Obi Wan Kenobi ghost mentor thing.
Will they bring Kelly McGillis back to hit on Mav’s girlfriend?
Will Val play an overweight rock star?
Will the pattern sill be full?
To: rktman
This will be a disaster. The original hasn’t aged very well - in 1986 it somehow tapped into the zeitgeist. As for the actors... Val Kilmer is no longer the young idol, Rick Rossovich disappeared, Kelly McGillis came out as lesbian, Goose was killed off, Merlin became the a**hole Tim Robbins.... Need I say more?!

Look at the bright side. Maybe the writing staff from Rosanne might pick up some work.

It may be a sequel. But at least it's not a reboot and it has the original actor.

The movie “Stealth” had eye candy, but little else except for a concept which detracts from the Top Gun concept...a technological reality for the next generation of fighters.
It will be interesting to see how he’ll pull it off.

But will it be as gay as the first one. Lots of Gay innuendos in that movie. Even one of the songs on the soundtracks was Playing with the Boys.

Will Kenny Loggins do a new theme song?
Trivia Fact: That theme song was originally offered to Canadian rocker Bryan Adams, who turned it down because the movie "glorified war".
Kenny Loggins has been thanking him for the royalty checks ever since.

Is he going to be flying a Healthnet helicopter with Indiana Jones in it to the hospital with a broken hip?
(Had to get in a reference to another movie franchise with an over-the-hill star...and yes, they ARE making another Indiana Jones movie with a 70 something Harrison Ford. Apparently Hollywood hasn't thought of anything innovative since the mid 1980's...)

1986... thirty-two years on. Maverick made Admiral? Captain at least? And he’s still flying fighters at age.... fifty-five? Sixty? Hard to play the young, cocky, flying-by-the-seat-of-his pants fighter jock thirty two years later...

There will be obnoxious...excuse me, "badass" chick fighter pilots. I guarantee it.

I forgot, Iceman can't be in this movie. We learned from SNL that Ice left the Navy and is an airline pilot. Iceman, the later years....

Will Kenny Loggins do a new theme song? These days, the "danger zone" for the geriatric cast is falling and breaking a hip, and "take my breath away" will be about walking up a flight of stairs.

The Jets will have Viagra advertising on the rear, and in Tom’s case, that’s appropriate.

Tom Cruise as Maverick is old, and, there are no old, bold fighter pilots.
Well, ok, Chuck Yeager would have been an old, bold fighter pilot if he stayed in fighters but he moved on well before he got to Cruise’s age.
