Quoted: I personally was treated like shit by Tom Cruise as a Marine E4 assigned to his BS detail when he came to our base. Condescending prick to everyone except the fans, even his own people. Around him for about 6 hours one day. So glad that shift was over. View Quote |

Tom Cruise is a great actor. I'm confident he could play a transgendered bull dyke of any sort. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes |

He was a LT in 1986, so he's got at least four years in, right? Figure a 1982 Commissioning. It's 2019, so a minimum of 37 years. Shouldn't he be wearing stars on his shoulder boards by now? View Quote That said, it's not the worst mistake Hollywood has ever made |

This guy had a very interesting career....about 25 years in the cockpit, starting with F-8s and transitioning to Tomcats. He was an absolute LEGEND as an LSO.
He died in a training accident in October of 1991. |

I’m guessing that Kelly McGillis does NOT make an appearance.

If someone told me Tom Cruise was actually piloting the F-18 in those scenes, I'd believe it. I'm 100% sure he's flying the P-51.

He also flew some in Fallon which is where most of the desert scenes were.

Not to my knowledge. You have to be a winged aviator and NATOPs qualified in the F18 to fly alone. I’ll dig around some and get some more details. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes |

I feel like I am repeating myself but he was in the front seat with an instructor in the back. Or maybe reverse but he was 100% flying. My JOs had even heard him on the radio while airborne. View Quote The trailer looks amazing, I still have concerns that the movie will be some SJW’d out pile of steaming feces. |

There's no way that movie won't suck. I loved the original top gun as a 13 year old kid. |

Quoted: That I can believe, but not solo in a military fighter jet. Is VFA122 east coast or west? The trailer looks amazing, I still have concerns that the movie will be some SJW’d out pile of steaming feces. View Quote I’m sure it will have some SJW elements. For certain the representation of sex and race will in no way match what is really in the Fleet. |

Of course hollywood has to have a female pilot to please the liberals.
