Top Gun: Maverick | NEW Official Trailer

I dunno...those F-18s just look so...well, wimpish compared to the first movies F-14s.

Shame the USN never went with the proposed F-14 Super Tomcat when deciding between it and the F-18s. It would have been so much cooler to see the evolved Tomcat in this movie.

Agreed... but that maintenance hours on those f-14s..... Its understandable why they aren't in service anymore
 
This looks like garbage. It's leatherface the movie, wearing the husk carcass of a 25 year old hit. It's like the result of an SNL skit making fun of Hollywood focus groups.

Looks good, glad it's finally coming out!

I mean it's still lazy nostalgia bait but those flying shots look nice and overall it looks better (at least IMO) than a lot of these other late sequels we've been getting in recent years.
 
Top Gun is cool and the NES game made it impossible to land.

If you can land the plane on the NES you can land it in real life.
 
Ah, so it is Goose's kid in this. Wonder if they dusted off Meg Ryan for a cameo or if they didn't have the FX budget to make her recognizable (please don't slap me Meg Ryans husband!)

What is the plot? Looks like they go up against some AAA and maybe a next gen fighter/drone? Hopefully it's not all "Maverick you are a relic of the past, a person out of time..." yada yada yada and instead do some fighting.

I'm with you on the plane shots, but they're asking us to sift through 100 minutes of cow dung to watch 9 minutes of fighter jet stuff we can all see on YouTube now or after release.

That trailer is like watching a 60 year old Axl Rose sing Welcome to the Jungle.

The world needs some fresh Tom Cruise jokes .We've been coasting on height, scientology, and couch-jumping for decades now. Lost it's shine.

If we're lucky they'll copy the plot of Ace Combat 7
 
Oh, plenty of I-remember berries.

And its fine. Could it possibly live up to the 80s awesomeness of the original? No, but that's a-okay.
 
anyone else feel the photoshopped Admiral Iceman just looked rediculously stupid? Hollywood artist are some of the best in the business and THAT is the best they could do???

Funny how it's just the Japan and Taiwan flags that have been changed to not offend China.

I'm sure you are correct but that seems like a detail that Cruise and the costuming folks would have fully addressed, not just cut out one patch and hope no one notices. I'm sure on the press junket it will come up again.

Quite frankly I'm not sure I care much that a fictional characters dad's patch was replaced by an equally fictitious patch.

It's going to be even funnier when it doesn't get released in China at all. Hollywood is bending over for Winnie the Pooh and they aren't even being rewarded for it anymore.

Yeah, I was happy to see Val somehow inserted into this, but it's such an obvious paste job. It looks like an outdoors head on an indoors body.

He's apparently actually in the movie in one scene. Probably doesn't have any lines (for obvious reasons).

Day 1 on the biggest screen with the loudest sound that I can find. This will set a new standard in aviation cinematography and I'm ready.
