Top Gun - Tom Cruise

Is on A&E today.

I'll have to confess, I love that movie!

Yeah, it has so many totally cornball/cliche lines ("your mouth is writing checks your body can't cash" "you're a good fighter pilot. Maybe too good." "It's classified. I'd tell you but then I'd have to kill you" etc.)

But I don't care. I love Top Gun.

That is all, have a good weekend.

Well, The replica speedster is kinda cool. Otherwise?

Kelly was very manly anyways. IMHO . I never found her hot. She seemed bigger, physically than Tom cruise on screen.

I love this movie. I'm pretty sure we played, "Take my breath away" at my wedding.

"Danger zone" was vetoed.

Negative Ghostrider, the pattern is full.

I haven't enjoyed anything Tom Cruise has done since he's come out as a card carrying nut job.

If I'm channel surfing and run across Top Gun, I always have to watch the rest of it.

What are you, like 13 years old? Come on, man!


It's amazing how quickly the interior becomes the cockpit of an F-14 when "Danger Zone" comes on the radio.

ya turned it on for my wife this afternoon while I washed her car.

Now she's mad at me because she's 2 hours behind in getting her list of things done...

Thanks a lot, Tom Cruise.

I would never give TC that much credit, the real star is the Grumman F14 Tomcat..

That's why they could never make a proper sequel to Topgun , not unless they made it an Iranian Tomcat movie.
