You call that a plot? - inactive, on 07/23/2008, -0/+68Top Gun 2 : Xenu Boogaloo
- gquaglia, on 07/22/2008, -7/+70Just another Scientology backed Tom Cruise venture that I refuse to support.
- cbrunet, on 07/22/2008, -1/+60Tom Cruise is on a highway to the danger zone.
- Falldog, on 07/23/2008, -0/+49Instead of MiGs the enemy are mysterious DC-8s from space.

- Falldog, on 07/23/2008, -0/+31Sounds about right for this type of *****.
- logicalnoise, on 07/23/2008, -0/+23as long as every plane isn't shaped like a DC-8 he's cool with it.

- brainnovate, on 07/25/2008, -7/+24I wonder if it will be anything but cheese, if it gets made. I loved the first one- one of my all time top favorites. Hard to beat...
- SurlyDuff, on 07/23/2008, -1/+16I think my brother just came in his pants. He must have watched that movie 50 times when we were kids and every time my urge to kill him rose higher and higher

- mllawso, on 07/23/2008, -0/+12If it does come out, I'm going to the theater dressed as Xenu.
- prisoner24601, on 07/23/2008, -0/+12The following Preview has been approved for all audiences...
A post-traumatic-stress Maverick has washed out and been dropped from flight status. As he's walking dejectedly through the Miramar shopping mall, a concerned Scientologist "minister" at a shabby little folding table with dusty copies of Dianetics sees him and says: "Excuse me, would you like to take a free stress test?" Thus begins an exciting journey to a whole new life as our re-invigorated fighter pilot finds freedom by progressively ridding himself of the many invisible spirit space-alien thetans that he has been heretofore unaware have infested his body holding him back from his true ability. He ultimately pilots his advanced F-14-derived "Hubbard Starfighter" in a daring raid against the evil forces of the Galactic overlord Xenu.
The only problem is that as after they convince him to pay several thousand dollars for auditing classes and thousands more for the first few Operating Theatan Levels, they realize that on a military salary he will never be able to afford the final classes to make himself "clear" much less the hundred thousand or so it would take to finish the last OT classes.
Not sure how the final scene will work out. - TwineHornet, on 07/22/2008, -4/+16Tom scares me these days, but I really liked Top Gun. I feel ashamed being excited about this.
- Lososaurus, on 07/23/2008, -0/+12A modern top gun would mainly consist of F-22's flying out, firing off a missile or two from a zillion miles out and never actually engaging in any dogfighting.....what's the point?
- virtuality96, on 07/23/2008, -2/+13Top Gun 2: The Reincarnation of Goose as Ron L Hubbard
- Xcel, on 07/23/2008, -0/+10I AM... PLAYING WITH THE BOYS!
- Testiculese, on 07/23/2008, -1/+10It is a plot. A horribly boring, overused plot. Also, wasn't the plot of Top Gun a female instructor that had to deal with him as a cocky new pilot? Wasn't a good movie anyway, I barely remember.
- Mazack, on 07/23/2008, -1/+9According to IMDB....
A script for "Top Gun 2" was completed shortly after the release of the film, but it broke down in pre-production because 1) the military's technology had become updated and they didn't want camera crew anywhere near their new aircraft and 2) Cruise did not want a sequel and finally agreed to star in one for a very high amount that was deemed "unaffordable." The script followed the further adventures of Maverick as an instructor at the Top Gun academy, the twist being a cocky female reminiscent of himself joining the team. - c0mputar, on 07/23/2008, -1/+9The cocky female pilot is actually possessed by Xenu, and Tom Cruise is trying to keep it occupied while the Thetan OT Squadron IV is sent to destroy the implanting station located on Venus.
- Robopath, on 07/23/2008, -1/+9"Goose you have too many thetans on your person, my e-meter is going off the charts"
- mllawso, on 07/23/2008, -0/+8But with rocket engines.
- inactive, on 07/23/2008, -1/+8We are truly in the Danger Zone if this is the case.
- inactive, on 07/23/2008, -0/+6Porno plot!
- hammelman, on 07/23/2008, -0/+6"Admiral, you don't know anything about fighter tactics, I've studied it, i know all about fighter tactics, you don't know how bad fighter tactics are! There's a reason i can fly upside down in a 4 G negative dive with a MIG, I'm in the clear! If you were in the clear you would know how to do it, but goddammit if you hadn't been studying all these silly "fighter tactics" you would be on your way to the clear too!" Said Maverick while jumping a couch.
- stevets, on 07/23/2008, -0/+6You mean the pattern is full...Sad that I know this.
- hexydes, on 07/23/2008, -1/+7Even better, why not just not make the movie, period?
- koonchu, on 07/23/2008, -1/+7This is a GREAT idea. Perfect way to exit his career.
- Scopitone, on 07/23/2008, -2/+8There'd be a lot of laughing AT, not WITH.
*****, I hope they make this. - RioMo, on 07/23/2008, -1/+7Maybe this time Tom WILL be flying a "cargo plane full of rubber dog ***** out of Hong Kong". I'd pay to see that simply for the laugh.
- mywhitenoise, on 07/23/2008, -12/+17Top Gun is one of the gayest movies ever made (no offense to the gays).
- wc3452, on 07/23/2008, -2/+7I think we've made quite the concession by letting women drive cars, but pilot fighter jets? C'mon!! Think of all the bad taxi jobs they'll make.
- PSotter, on 07/22/2008, -13/+18Buried for baiting anonymous with speculative garbage.
- inactive, on 07/23/2008, -0/+5....on maverick's gay ass.
- Meursault, on 07/23/2008, -2/+7BSG's Kara Thrace has opened the door for cocky female pilot believable-ness, believability, whatever.
- MaxMWood, on 07/23/2008, -2/+7The plot sounds awful, why not just have him come back as a pilot for "one last time" or something like that?
- pitchblack16, on 07/23/2008, -2/+7whats he gonna play, the geriatric flight instructor...
- Albear89, on 07/23/2008, -1/+6 This will only be cool if Kenny Loggins is on to do the soundtrack
- mecharabbit, on 07/23/2008, -0/+5Son, your ego is writing scripts that your body can't film.
- analogkid01, on 07/23/2008, -0/+5Funny, I always thought L. Ron Hubbard was a quack.
- zip000, on 07/23/2008, -0/+4I really, really hope this gets made (not because I want to see it) just because I think that it will be spectacularly bad.
- stanfy86, on 07/23/2008, -1/+5I was thinking they should just get rid of Maverick, and use iceman instead.........at least Kilmer isint heading some crazy cult.
- TsuruchiBrian, on 07/23/2008, -0/+4Making lots of money is never against his religion.
- skyshock1, on 07/23/2008, -0/+4He get's to shoot down Xenu in an epic UFO vs. F18 battle in the end.
