I never understood the love for top gun. Not my bag at all

Eighties Jerry Bruckheimer movie? You had to be there.

This looks surprisingly awesome. It good that they made Maverick the main character, rather than try to replace him with a youngster and then have Cruise play Maverick as just some token cameo. I hope it's not a misleading trailer.

Comicon video of him on twitter introducing trailer, says planes all real flying and they worked with the navy.
Trailer didn't disappoint, loved the music kicking in

looks great!

shocked!

im going to say he isn't flying, but that they filmed him in the front seat? with a pilot in the back

I read last year that he was learning to fly jets for this movie, but I can't believe they actually let him fly an F-15. Maybe take the controls of a dual seat trainer or something. But it's Tom Cruise, so you never know what the hell he'll do for a movie role.

They’re F/A-18 super Hornet‘s.

And they do two seater versions like the F-14’s so he’s not flying, oh and civilians cannot fly military planes.
