CheckGear Posted May 31, 2018 Share Posted May 31, 2018 Start smiling, boys. I know that's not a Tomcat in the background, but it's going to be 2019 when it hits theaters and I think they chose the right aircraft for the job! :thumbup: https://twitter.com/TomCruise/status/1002062865971499008/photo/1?tfw_site=cinemablend&ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.cinemablend.com%2Fnews%2F2428400%2Ftom-cruise-shares-a-top-gun-2-set-photo-that-will-get-fans-crazy-pumped Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

uri_ba Posted June 2, 2018 Share Posted June 2, 2018 (edited) can you explain that joke ? No Joke. The French had made a film very similar to Top gun about a decade ago "Les chevaliers du ciel". I never saw it, however, the photography is amaznig Other then that, I don't care about TG2.. Just gimme the Cat already :) Edited June 2, 2018 by uri_ba Creator of Hound ELINT script My pit building blog Few DIY projects on Github: DIY Cougar throttle Standalone USB controller | DIY FCC3 Standalone USB Controller Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vilab Posted June 2, 2018 Share Posted June 2, 2018 (edited) not that similar, except in their flaws. the photography ( and music ) is amazing, there are some good jokes ( in French at least ) but the dogfights don t make sense, moreover they are too often speed up and it looks like a HAWK gameplay.

Reflected Posted June 5, 2018 Share Posted June 5, 2018 No, I just meant that there's a Hornet in the background in the picture posted by Tom Cruise. What a disappointment :( Facebook Instagram YouTube Discord Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lieuie Posted June 5, 2018 Share Posted June 5, 2018 Well, they couldn't have the Tomcat even if they wanted to. Still better then the F-35. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nightwolf Posted June 5, 2018 Share Posted June 5, 2018 Yeah they're using hornets for this one, there aren't many Tomcats available still in service :lol: "Fighter pilots have ice in their veins.

Dr.Goose Posted June 5, 2018 Share Posted June 5, 2018 I only have one thing to say: DON'T F**K THIS UP! This is an incredible task, for the past 30+ years fans have dreamed of a Top Gun 2 movie, so expectations are high. I am afraid, that they are unattainably high. I really hope Top Gun 2 doesn't suck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fri13 Posted June 5, 2018 Share Posted June 5, 2018 The last time Tomcat got good TV time was: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bWEy028tvUY https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LeqzycxXR54 (then there are few episodes flying F/A-18 as tomcats were out of action) And now it is time to let new generation to go for "the ball". The Top Gun 2 has high pressure to deliver more for the F/A-18... i7-8700k, 32GB 2666Mhz DDR4, 2x 2080S SLI 8GB, Oculus Rift S. i7-8700k, 16GB 2666Mhz DDR4, 1080Ti 11GB, 27" 4K, 65" HDR 4K.

norbot Posted June 5, 2018 Share Posted June 5, 2018 I know you're going to tear me apart, but I think the only good thing about the movie was the soundtrack and the F-14. The plot was very shallow. Fighterpilots with claustrophobia and uncontrolled testosterone. Not even one of those guys would have made it into a fightercockpit in real life... :doh: A-10A, A-10C, A-10C II, AV-8B, F-5E, F-16C, F/A-18C, F-86F, Yak-52, Nevada, Persian Gulf, Syria, Supercarrier, Combined Arms, FW 190 A-8, FW 190 D-9, Spitfire LF Mk.

The plot was very shallow. Fighterpilots with claustrophobia and uncontrolled testosterone. Not even one of those guys would have made it into a fightercockpit in real life... :doh: That's actually kind of the point. In the special features documentary, they said they actually started with getting all of the aerial video, then realized they didn't have a plot so they did their best to cobble one together in editing. It's all about the rock and roll dogfighting, no one watches Top Gun for the plot :thumbup: "Fighter pilots have ice in their veins. They don't have emotions. They think, anticipate.
