rewatched this for the first time as an adult. doesnt hold up
>90% of the movie is training >sappy montage music constantly blaring to mask its emptiness >laughable love plot with a 40 yo post wall average woman and 23 yo pilot >Maverick gets his partner killed, puts another in enemy death lock causing life ruining PTSD, puts several others in grave danger, and this is portrayed as acceptable, sympathetic, and bold >some random Soviet bloc jets in the Indian Ocean because reasons start WW3 by attacking a US carrier, which allows for a contrived dog fight
It's probably one of those 'You had to be there' things. Never understood the love for it either.

Yea its unrealistic that 100% of a late Cold War military career wasn't training. The film is at least realistic in that they are training for one single mission ever and being promoted to a command or training position as soon as they have a single kill.

>It’s almost like it’s a long 1980s Navy recruiting ad in mTv style
Then go watch some more Marvel and Disney propaganda that's designed to turn you into a genderless fag that molests little children until you 41% yourself to make space for more niggers you stupid fucking zoomer faggot.
On March 3 1969 the United States Navy assembled a new training branch. Their task to take the top 1% of pilots and train them in the lost art of aerial dogfighting and create the best combat aviators in the world.
They Succeeded.
The Navy named it Fighter Weapon School. The flyers call it...
Top Gun.
Not verbatim but best I can recall off hand.

I just like the name Top Gun. It's so silly and quasi masculine.

It was a special 3 week course to teach F4 Phantom pilots in Vietnam to immediately disengage vertically into a controlled stall and then reengage from above. Called the egg.
It grew alot from there but literally that was the training at first.

>Maverick I'd a huge success, beloved by audiences and critical alike >Contrarian zoomers on Any Forums start squeaking after watching top gun for the first time because they saw a clip on TikTok and didn't understand it

On may 2nd 2008 the Walt Disney corporation established an elite school for the bottom 99% of the worlds children. It's purpose was to teach the lost art of consooming, and insure that everyone becomes the biggest faggots in the world.
They succeeded.
Today, Disney calls it diversity and inclusion, The few remaining straight white males call it:
Top Cuck.
