Any movie with a midget as the badass is a miss.If you think Top Gun sucks, you didn't see it in the theater.
Top Gun, Rocky IV, Red Dawn, Rambo etc. are a product of their era.

Well, I hate him as much as anyone else, but the truth is that many our pilots and even special ops guys are often small guys who are endurance athlete types, not the muscle bound Rambo stereotype. I was about 182-185 in jump school and I was EASILY one of the biggest dudes there. Most were 20-30 lbs lighter.Any movie with a midget as the badass is a miss.
It changed MattM's life.Top Gun is about hidden homosexuality. Go ahead, look it up
both of my folks were USAF hanging out with b-52's in minot, ND - the reason I'm a florida boy LOLReally? I never knew
My father was Air Force so...
Can't blame you for that. We were stationed at Grand Forks, ND until a blizzard rolled through and shut down the base and the whole city of GF with it. Got to triple digit below zero with wind chill. Once everything opened back up Dad was in the personnel office putting in for worldwide assignment. Back to Yokota AB, Japan for another 3 years we went. Needless to say, I have absolutely no desire to go back to ND ever again!both of my folks were USAF hanging out with b-52's in minot, ND - the reason I'm a florida boy LOL

So sorry.both of my folks were USAF hanging out with b-52's in minot, ND
Small world. The day before I left for Summer B at UF my dad left for Loring. His first Civil Service job after retiring. I went up after the first year was over at UF and worked at a little fun park there on US-1 repairing go-carts iso that the French Canadiens could come over and get drunk and crash them. Good times! Was there for Christmas a couple of years and I can remember driving down the road and the snow was piled up almost to the telephone lines and the mailboxes were hanging from chains off of about a 15'-20' pole. Crazy stuff.Oh wow. "Why not, Minot?" My father had a choice between Minot or Loring AFB ME and choose Maine. Nothing wrong with ND except we had relatives up there and I guess they were trying to avoid them. AMMS Air Missile Maintenance Squadron. We spent 5 cold years on the Canadian border. But hey we got 2 weeks out of school every fall to pick potatoes.
