Irans ancient ass f14s better be ready.
The F14 is still the best fighter jet ever made. The original Top Gun proved that.
Remake?
for it's time yes, it was mean but nowadays it would be just average...The F14 is still the best fighter jet ever made. The original Top Gun proved that.
F-15 is, statistically.

why does Tom Cruise not age?...Scientology cryo-chamber?
Part of it is genetic, other parts movie-magic , its probably clean living+money. There's a lot of crazy mumbo jumbo in scientology, but from my experience with those who are somewhat into it (including the cost-free alternative) there is an emphasis on lifestyle (natural/healthful eating, balanced diet, supplements, exercise, avoiding smoking/booze/drugs etc) that, totally removed from wackly scientology justifications and applied smartly are still good for you. Of course, he was also leading-man-good-looking for years and has tons of money to look after his health if he so chooses, which can never be underestimated, basically enabling good lifestyle choices if desired.
Presumably. But the trailer contained mostly shots resembling iconic scenes from original...Sequel.

Money, genes, diet, exercise, scientology alien deaging tech. The trailer looks okay but just reminded me that getting old sucks dick.
Difference here is it'll be understated cheese at worst. But I've faith the Oblivion director will show us something more sophisticated than what passed in the 80's.I'm looking forward to this. I do have a feeling that reception will be split by those of us old enough to have seen it in the 80's and loved it and the younger generation that might think it's too cheesy.
Maybe it won't.... The original did age pretty well I think.
No, The Final Countdown did it long before Top Gun.The F14 is still the best fighter jet ever made. The original Top Gun proved that.
Will his nemesis be Icewoman?
Well, the Navy requires at least 21 years total service before you can be considered for promotion to Captain, so it's not completely outlandish. They do get the boot at 30 years if they're not recommended for promotion to Admiral though.Him still being a Captain is probably the most eye rolling thing for me. It’s not possible or realistic at all. If you watch Behind the Movie: Top Gun on YouTube they pissed of the Navy in many ways but it was all specifically narrative driven. Actual military aspects are (generally speaking) realistic.
I almost want to say they stole some Intersteller ideas.
In order for Maverick to continue flying he has to fly advanced test platforms or equipment with a special program/project in the reserves or said program. Due to the increase in drone use he is considered a dying breed. Enemy has the ability to jam those unmanned aircraft and it will take a specially outfitted aircraft and Mavericks knowledge of it to do the job.
Basically “Oh you were/are a tear pilot, sure you can lead a highly classified team into deep spa...Iran”

The F14 can operate from carrier decks though, and has swing wings so its automatically the coolest and therefore, best.
Range, speed, armament, avionics integration- if an F-15 were modified to operated off of a carrier deck, the F-14 would still be better at its primary mission of CAP / interceptor than an F-15 (or the current F/A-18E/F).
A 'modernized' F-14 could be very, very good
