Is it just me or did the Kenny Loggins tune “Highway to the Danger zone” sell this film?

I really never liked Top Gun (oooh can you believe it?) even younger I saw this film as a joke, nothing more than a Air Force recruitment film.

If they wanted to do a remake of Top Gun, they should stay far far away from the title Top Gun…..

Just write a script about an Air Force squad or mission or whatever, just don’t call it “Top Gun”, and maybe I might see it. Maybe.

Highway tooooooo the Danger Zone!!!

Next you’ll be hearing about a remake of “Iron Eagle!”

Top Gun 2…oh Lord! I love the original movie, but sequels that come out years and years after the original almost always lag far behind the first movie. Top Gun 2 could work, but it would have to be worked out very carefully. In a way I hope Top Gun 2 is true, and in a way I hope nothing becomes of it! I don’t like when a good movie has some sort of crummy follow-up on it’s tail. This is just my opinion though. Each to their own.

Top Gun: The New Class

If Cruise attaches to this, he’s done. This smells so much like direct-to-DVD or USA Exclusive (no returning actors and Maverick being some sort of urban legend). Instead of “You Lost that Lovin’ Feeling” it’ll have a karoke scene with some Greenday song.

Ohhh crap. Top Gun 1 kicked ass because of many actual fighter jet scenes. I think if they were to make a sequel, it will cost close to $200 million and be full of CGI planes. No longer will we have the fun of seeing actual F5Es (”Mig-24s”) going up against Tomcats.

Perhaps Miramar will now use the Super Hornets instead of Tomcats? Those tower fly-bys sure look better with swept-wing Tomcats than they would with Super Hornets.

Only if Iceman/Val Kilmer is in it.

And what’s this crap about a young female hotshot pilot…great it’ll be some supermodel and the movie will suck. Why not have Val Kilmer and Tom Cruise just blowing sh** up for an hour and a half?

In all seriousness though top gun is one of my fav. movies of all time, I’d love to see its sequel done right and done well.

@ Vic – Sorry bud, I forgot to change my email on the address login line. Maybe that was the problem. I’m rather computer “simple” (having never even heard of a bounce message before…), so I hope entering my new email fixes things. Sorry for the skull boobery, mate.

top gun can definitely go without having a sequel. personally I don’t think a sequel will fit well seeing as it has been so long since the last one was made. we aren’t talking about a fictiony flick like indiana jones, this is top gun, just let it rest.

I heard this rumor a few years back.
at that time they were supposed to be scouting locations.
Nothing came of it .
We shall see what happens this time.

Also, to add to my previous comment, there are movies out there that don’t warrant a sequel. Those studios that have disobeyed this unwritten law have met it with disasterous results. With that said, “Top Gun” is such a film that does not warrant said sequel.

This just sounds like a really bad idea. Not to mention that this would truely add ridicule to Cruise’s already bruised image.

@nowhereman – Hey, bro, what’s the deal with the email addresses you use? I keep getting bounce messages in my inbox and I *hate* getting repeated bounce messages.

I don’t think this movie needs a sequel… why is it that Hollywood always want that number 2? Why oh why can’t they just make new and fresh movie? No, no Top Gun 2 is needed!
But I will go and see Valkyrie.

If Dr. Teeth is in this movie I will skip it…

I think the concept would be very marketable as laid out in the rumor.
Maybe Mavrick and Ice would opt for the more “old school” approach and pilot The F-14 Tomcats against their students YF-22 Raptors in order to demonstrate that technology can be challenged by superior air combat skills. Hopefully, the filmakers wouldn’t go quite so over the top as the whole UCAV deal in STEALTH.
I think it could be a solid, enjoyable film if handled right.

I loved Top Gun, and would be willing to buy a ticket for 2. It would be great to get Kilmer in for this, and even Michael Ironside (although he is pretty old). Cruise being in it is an automatic $100 million dollar hit.
