So, we are all probably aware of the Tron sequel coming out this winter. I also found out there is a tenative sequel to The Last Starfighter in the works as well.

So guess what other movie they are making a sequel out of? Anyone?

Let me save you all...

Top Gun 2 Confirmed (http://www.showbizspy.com/article/216619/top-gun-2-has-been-confirmed-by-its-director-tony-scott.html)

Yep, Tom Cruise will be playing Maverick again...ugh.

Oh and a few of the articles are speaking like the Dogfight is dead. Didn't they say that at the start of the Vietnam War? Look what happened to that if you are a student of Aerial Warfare (or a Jetfighter game enthusiast).

So any thoughts on what could be a train wreck of a movie?

But it is dead. I mean outside of video games and shit. Especially for the US. Or was that the joke?

Anyway the only movies I can enjoy Tom Cruise in are ones where his real personality is used. Like in Collateral where he's a hollow psychopathic killer. Or Tropic Thunder where he's a sociopathic coroporate shill. Basically I can't believe Tom Cruise in any role where he even attempts a semblance of normal human emotions.

Son, your ego is writing checks your body can't cash!



Who is TopGun..... OF VOLLEYBALL!


We have won all the medals!
You can't just play beach volleyball instead of the sports you are supposed to be playing.
Fuck the Olympics!

What?

Huh?

Um...I vote this as completely irrelevant to the topic.

I think Maddox said all that really needs to be said about Top Gun (http://www.thebestpageintheuniverse.net/c.cgi?u=five_shitty_movies).

Top Gun 2 couldn't turn out that bad could it?

As long as it ups the volleyball content of the first one it can't fail.

So will Tom Cruise be the oldest fighter pilot in the world, or just the united states?

How could anyone ever possibly think that volleyball is irrelevant to the topic of Top Gun.

How could anyone ever possibly think that volleyball is irrelevant to the topic of Top Gun.There are people in this world whose only experiences with Top Gun are pop-culture retellings of the tower buzzing and upside down arial photography scenes.

I'm not one of them, but I'm telling you; I know these people.

The average person seems entirely unaware of the shower scenes and closeted homosexuality inherent in it, as well.

I occasionally like to watch women's college volleyball. Does that count? ;)

Towards being homoerotic? Yes and no. Watching women's sports may make other men question your sexuality. However, you are clearly watching women, whereas they spend their time watching sweaty men rub all over each other in various ways, such as tackling.

Oh, wait, you mean towards a knowledge of Top Gun? Yeah, pretty much. Just have a couple of friends over and call each other cool nicknames like "Iceman" and "Maverick" and..."Goose", and you'll recreate the Top Gun experience pretty well.

EDIT: Also what's up with women's college volleyball not taking place on a beach in bikinis? This error needs repaired like now.

So at theend of Top Gun Maverick becomes a Top Gun instructor. So in Top Gun 2 will he be instructing a new breed of up and comers like the arrogant pretty boy hiding a terrible secret alongside his straight man copilot and their rivals, the vaguely foreign beefcake and somebody nobody remembers.
I'm guessing new maverick will be Shia Le Bouef. And his name shall be Buckshot.
