SkateZilla Posted July 25, 2017 Share Posted July 25, 2017 What's crazy is that as big of a film Independence Day was, it never immortalized the F/A-18 the way Top Gun immortalized the F-14. I think there was an expectation, however subtle, that Will Smith would become the new Tom Cruise (and there's no question Will Smith would go on to have a huge career), but ID4 never really made the impact on American society that Top Gun did. This, despite the fact it depicted the Hornet as the hottest fighter in the U.S. inventory (at the time). the Subpar CGI model they used and the crazy flight model might have had something to do with it.
