Baclofen and tylenolI was a total badass back when I was 70. Now I’m still a badass at 71 but after badassery I have to take a couple of Motrins.

I wanna see this
And then the blankets on his horse gave everyone COVID and the Comanche died.
(That will be in the history books in about 10 years or less)
I am Comanche, my father was from the Quahadie band in Walters or Anadarko OK.
They were led by the War Chief Quanah Parker. The ONLY war chief to NEVER sign a treaty wth the government at the time.
I am an indigenous mutt. Half comanche, quarter Texas band Tsa-La-Gi (Cherokee) and, quarter Aztec (Mexican).
This is why I am so good looking and, will live to be 150
Eastwood's best movie IMO. The only thing that sucked about it was Sondra Lock.

While I loved Top Gun & Top Gun: Maverick, I've been reading articles this morning about a possible Top Gun III. I don't know...I like the way TG: Maverick ended. Maybe leave it at that?

I have read this too, but without Cruise/Maverick, and looking at other character story lines. I see a franchise opportunity. Rooster and Hangman kind of plot.

Just, no. Full stop. Know when to just walk away. This is part of Hollywood's problem.
Make a whole new movie if you want, just stop trying to make everything a franchise and ride coattails. It's lazy and uninspired.
Can anyone name a series where the 3rd+ movie was as good as or better than the original - assuming the original was at least marginal or better as well? I can't.

That might be the best bet. I read today an idea of the plot covering the time between TG I &II. I don't think thats a good idea because Cruise has aged too much to play that part and nobody else really could pull it off.
I definitely wouldn't mind seeing Jennifer Connelly again.

I am not sure how you top TG/TG:M. I don't mind more movies with quality naval aviation, but don't know how I feel about a franchise.
Agreed about Cruise's age. He cannot be in another. But I would dig Connelly, yeah.

Agreed. The Mission Impossible movies are decent, but being a mythical James Bond-ish type character is a different animal. Like 007 movies, its subjective which movie is better. But Maverick is about a life- like character and his time has just about ran out.
"Hmm, how do we explain Cruise flying after 90 years in uniform?"
"And in a war that doesn't involve China, Russia, or the ME?"
"Strap into the cockpit, for the most epic Top Gun yet. Top Gun 3: Stop Loss. Maverick returns for his most dangerous mission ever in the bloody skies over Paraguay."

I thought Top Gun and Top Gun Maverick were dumb.
There. I said it. Dumb. Any halfwit could’ve written the dialogue. And motorcycles aren’t allowed on the flight line, asshole…be advised.
Y’know what was a better movie? Predator. Yeah. With Arnold. And Ventura. And my man, Carl fucking Weathers.
That was a movie.

It was way too fucking corny. Hot Shots the parody was at least meant to be funny.

It never gets old. I only have a handful of comedy DVDs I keep so I can pop in and watch anytime. This one..Planes, Tranes, and Automobiles, and Uncle Buck.

Saw Guardians of the Galaxy 3 over the weekend. It was entertaining and worth seeing if you like the franchise; a fitting ending.
It was probably a good way to wrap up my interest in Marvel; it's pretty much run it's course with me. If there was any doubt, the trailer for The Marvels movie put the final nails in the coffin - what a complete dumpster fire of trash.

We watched GOTG 3 and, really enjoyed it. Then we saw there is a GOTG Christmas special. That inserts between 2 and 3! It gives context to the character dynamic that we were scratching our heads about.
