Mission Accomplished

Today, I watched Top Gun. For the first time.

And I know what you're thinking. It was just one of those movies that eluded me. Strangely enough, for decades. I just never got around to watching it.

And the rumours I've heard are true. The flight scenes hold up pretty well, and much of the rest of the film is just a short step away from being homoerotica. Geez, have you seen it as an adult?

But the best part has to be the inclusion of Tom Skerritt in the film as Viper. Man, he's so frickin' cool and underrated, it's ridiculous. And he just seems to pop up in some of the most amazing places.

Vintage Bruckheimer.
