[compacflt]

So Miles is pitching for a Top Gun: Rooster and I dont think we need a sequel tbh but if we do get a sequel to TGM what would do you think it would look like/you want it to be like?

i don’t care. the storys over.

Let’s do an indy 5/cars 3 situation (gotta keep the IP alive) where mav is in an old persons home with dementia and multiple replaced joints and divorced but somehow the navy still needs him and just him to train the new 20 year old female protégé (maybe amelia for tie-in bonus?) after rooster volunteered to fight in ukraine in 2022 and got shot down and killed a week into the war… And somehow it’s maverick and only maverick who gets behind the yoke to save the day (OMG Tom cruise wins against all odds again)

fun for the whole family and it makes a lot of money 🥳🤑

#how cynical can we make our cash grabs #more or less cynical than tgm already is? #some days i remain unconvinced by tgm #not to be the jaded 20 year old convinced it’s so over all the time #story’s been over since 1986 #this is a hot take i think but mav’s character did not develop at ALL in tgm. he just atoned for past mistakes which is NOT the same as dev #his arc is OVER! #send the dead horse to the glue factory it’s nothing but pulp #(common compacflt hypocrisy) (i also can’t stop writing about these guys) #parroting marisatomay’s assertion that miles teller is a good actor but he does not have movie star juice. he is not gonna get my butt #in the seat for top gun 3 unfortunately. only the airplanes will do that. #top gun maverick #pete maverick mitchell #bradley rooster bradshaw
