Now I can't wait for your reaction to Top Gun Maverick.
If you want another classic Tom Cruise movie, you should watch Days of Thunder. It's got a similar feel to Top Gun. I think you'll like it.
Do yourself a favor and watch the 2nd one in the Theatre if its still playing around you. Its well worth it.
@@chrisbreezy-ryanbarbosa4320 could maybe find one of those 2 dollar theaters they have around some places where they play all the movies that just left other theaters at discounted price.
love u queen
The reason there's so much tension between Maverick and Iceman is because Iceman went to flight school with Cougar and was a good friend of his, and Iceman considers Maverick to be a hotshot who landed in Cougar's rightful spot since Cougar would've been in Top Gun instead of Maverick if he hadn't quit.
Two alpha dogs circling each other, but instead of growling and baring teeth at each other, they behave as befits naval officers. Those smiles were polite snarls.
No, it’s sexual tension and top gun is about homosexuality.
@@holyguy2940 To a hammer, everything's a nail.
@@holyguy2940 You know, gay people don't like it when you try to ram heteronormative down their throats. Straight people don't like it when you attempt to reinterpret every interaction between straight people in a homoerotic light. It implies mediocrity. Maverick wouldn't have ended up with Penny Benjamin if he were gay, so knock it off.
@@Educated2Extinction I say... that's a nice saying
Chicks being turned on by planes is the hottest thing ever 😂
Once it was fast cars. Now it's jet fighters. Next it'll be space ships. >sigh< I drive a Toyota.
Yup! Them aerodynamics
Yuuuup dude, I'm tellin you, get you one of those girls as a wife. Trust me. It's worth it. (Started up this movie one night, didn't make it 15 minutes before she grabbed me and took me to the bedroom)
@@uve_beendoogied9222 I'll take "Things that didn't happen" for $100😂
its more so tom cruise lmao
"...when I drop my phone off the bed when I'm reading fanfiction..." Called. Out. Damn.
11:39 The part where he says ..."And one admiral's daughter", and Goose says "Penny Benjamin?". Penny is in Top Gun: Maverick. She's Jennifer Connelly's character.
Men and women have been enjoying the hotness of this movie for 36 years and here comes Tofu , "Its for me" . Thats adorable :)
I used to work on the flight deck onboard USS Nimitz. When an aircraft powers up to launch, there is a piece that rises up behind it called a Jet Blast Deflector, to make sure you don't "get incinerated" (although you're far more likely to be blown clear off deck and into the water below than to be incinerated). I used to wear that flight deck gear you were crushing on. Green shirt. Aviation Boatswains Mate: Aircraft Launch and Recovery Equipment (a.k.a. ABE). Particularly the Arresting Gear, which is the equipment that the wire the aircraft catches is attached to that actually stops the aircraft.
"Are they playing with their friends?" hehe... no.
"Is this Cold War era?" Yes. 1986 was still Cold War era, albeit late into it. The exact enemy in the movie is never specified, tho the red star suggests Eastern Bloc.
"Men shoud wear masks more often." Would probably improve my looks, lol.
Fighter pilots are the cockiest bastards you will ever meet. They're not necessarily jerks, but there is absolutely NO question about their confidence.
Yes, you HAVE to have that attitude to do the job they do.
"..in this branch of whatever the fuck they're in." Navy.
The volleyball scene was definitely made with you in mind, lol.
"Why is he bloody?" That was him hitting the ejected canopy. The problem with flying through the other plane's jet wash is a real issue that F-14A had, causing the engines to stall out. The engines were changed in the F-14B and F-14D.
Literally every movie about combat flight training has that scene where a pilot has to deal with the death of a comrade. Usually about how they need to get past it. Quickly. It's not fair, but war isn't a fair business.
Aircraft carriers don't really have windows, other than the tower which has the Ship's Bridge, Admiral's Bridge and Primary Flight Control. Although our sleeping area (called a "berthing") had two windows (called portholes) which were at the bow (the most forward part) of the ship, just below the flight deck. I watched one of the last flight's of the A-6 Intruder catapult off deck from there. They do, however, have air conditioning so the sweat was likely for effect. Or it could've just been the South Pacific during the summer, because, damn...
As a former head gear guy on the Flight Deck, thanks for the appreciation.
"That part." Yeah, the missile.
Catapults broken, can't launch for ten minutes. Typical.
"They're buggin' out!" means the remaining MiGs were disengaged and retreating. Or to simply it, "Fuck this, we're out."
"Isn't 'Maverick' such a bad ass name!" Yeah, that's probably why he wouldn't have it. Most callsigns are given based on something embarrassing you did. Example: a pilot who's callsign is 'Skidmarks'.
That scene at the end with everyone on deck celebrating. Yeah, wouldn't have happened. We don't know what you did up there (unless it was directly overhead) and, we don't care. We got more planes to launch, more planes to land. Move, bitches. lol.
Part of that "chemistry" might come from the fact that during the filming, Tom Cruise and Val Kilmer legit didn't like each other. Tho I believe they've since become friendly.
Spot on dude. I was a tin can sailor, but yeah.
On the callsign thing, you're absolutely right. I was on the boarding team on my ship and we had a guy, tall, pretty, crazy, slept with anything that moved. He had had basically every curable STD. His callsign was "Outbreak".
@@iczorro i bet he loved them for that call sign. seeing is it not true that they get a call sign of something in particular that they absolutely hate ?
That was great, you got everything except her last question, if anyboby want to join the navy after the movie
@@lito6062 probably because I did join the Navy. Not because of this movie tho, as I was 9 when it came out.
@@lito6062 after the movie was released, there was somewhat of an increase in recruitment.
Her: “Is he choking? No, that’s my job!”
Me: “Well played Tofu. Well played.”
The final sequence is very close to the actual engagement involving Voodoo one, two and three. I think you will love the first four minutes of the new movie as well. Those characters, however, pale in comparison to this film
😂😂😂
We’ll that was the funniest reaction to Top Gun ever. You’ve got yourself a subscriber lmao!
Thank you for watching 🥺
@@QueenTofu why the sad face? Lol
You’ll like the next one way more fyi. Can’t wait to see it!
The thirst is real in this one lol, was hilarious.
Well no wonder this guy is still in the movie business.
When she thinks the whole movie is eye candy and she hasn't even seen the volleyball scene yet... Oh myyyyy Great reaction!
I don't think I've ever enjoyed a Top Gun review this much. I started out giggling but by the middle I had to pause the video because I kept cry-laughing every time you reacted. What a fantastic video, Tofu. I wish all videos on UA-cam produced this much joy! Also, really love that TLOU re-mixed outro.
QueenTofu: "You can't kill someone in a romance movie!" 😭😭
Romeo & Juliet: *Hold our beers, please*
Ghost has entered the chat
How well does this movie portray personalities, training and maneuvers? Well, its movie. All of the personalities are ones you'll encounter in an operational squadron, but they're turned up to 11. Training is intense and can be very dangerous, so they hit that more-or-less on the head, but the maneuvers are mostly just aerobatics choreographed to look good on camera. The second movie, Top Gun: Maverick, gives you a much better look at the kind of things Navy pilots get up to in the air.
Listen dude ‘what navy pilots get up to’ keep that to yourself, your lifestyle choices are between you and god
One of the biggest discrepancies is that real world dogfighting isn't like that; they're flying at less than WW2 ranges. In the real world the planes would be a mile or more apart.
@@Caseytify Unless you are down to guns range, in which case under one mile, the F-14's manual sights have two range markers, 1,000ft and 2,000ft.
My dad was air force in nam. The only pricks that existed besides officers were pilots. I get it. They have to be a good pilot to begin with. Doesnt change the fact that most were asking to get gutted by their own. And if and when it happened it was thru no fault of anyone else but themselves
@@HkFinn83what are you referring to in his post? He makes a brief, vague (to me) comment about turning up to 11, and you seem upset about his intentions. I missed it. Just curious.
More Tofu thirsting over everyone (and everything?) in Top Gun, yes please! 🙏
Great reaction!
Oh and Harley absolutely CRUSHED it as well!
I like your style! I actually really appreciate that you pause for commentary rather than talk over the movie. So many reactors talk over scenes and miss big lines and details. Also i like that you google something while it's paused to learn rather than just stay confused.
Yet she missed details from the very beginning... and even admitted to such.
@@damon6126 Nobody's perfect lol
@@damon6126 doubt that she would be like "yeah the F-14 tomcat in this scene has his landing flaps ups where it should be down for takeoff" or stuff like that
Your reactions had me dying laughing. I’ve seen many react to this movie, but this was by far the funniest.
By far the most annoying!
I absolutely love the consistency of content lately and you look so happy doing it. So proud of you!!!
Thanks André 🥺💜
"we can go horizontal if you want 😅" lol my girlfriend walked in the room right as you said that lmao, she was like "what the hell are you watching!" 🤣
Now that you’ve seen this one I highly recommend watching Top Gun Maverick, easily the best sequel I’ve EVER seen!!
Tori, you absolutely need to watch the next top gun. So much nostalgia and it’s the sort of movie that cinemas have dreamed of which is why it’s been so successful!
Another fantastic and amazing reaction. I love that you're digging into these '80's and '90's videos, as they get overlooked and are well worth the look. The editing is top-notch, too. Can't wait for the next reaction!
The love scene was actually filmed after the movie was finished. It wasn’t originally in the script. In my family it was called “the lizard scene”.
And the reason it is shot in silhoette/shadow with the blue filter is cause Kelly had dyed and cut her hair for another movie that she was filming......
@@CoastalNomad yeppers
this movie doesn't need fanfics about maverick and ice man. it IS a fanfic about them
"Am I touched deprived?"
"Roger, that's your bogey"
That was great lol
If you love Tom Cruise, I'd highly recommend reacting to Jerry Maguire (1996). It's a romantic-comedy drama and one of his best performances. The film was nominated for 5 Academy Awards including Best Picture and Cruise was nominated for Best Actor in a Leading Role.
Makes me wonder how much she'll thirst for Tom even more watching Far And Away or Interview With A Vampire. Lol
@@brianvalencia7717 Tom Interview with the vampire, she's gonna be sweating like the guys in the aircraft carrier
Yes! You must watch Top Gun Maverick and finish the journey 37 years later.
Yes! Not only did you keep the shot in of the F-14 spinning upside down after takeoff with the inverted view of the aircraft carrier below, but you acknowledged the sickness of it. A+
If you're talking about the shot when Maverick launches to help Iceman, you can see the contrail behind the jet that shows it flying past the carrier for that shot. An F-14A wouldn't be able to get going that fast that quickly after takeoff when loaded with fuel and armourment. Probably almost fall out of the sky trying to barrel roll that soon after too. Very under powered and unreliable engines.
Fun fact: A LOT of people joined the Air Force after this, which is really funny because this is a Naval pilot movie. Haha. Glad you liked it. Hope to see your reaction around the second one that just came out soon! Such a great follow up!
Actually, Navy recruiting skyrocketed after the movie and they got a ton of pilots thanks to it. The Air Force got some pilots, but guys wanted to join the Navy.
This movie is in the Library of Congress because of the effects it had on Navy recruiting.
I miss being an Airman was only for a few years but I really wanted to earn my wings after I finished my time in logistics.
Yup, they had recruiters in the movie theater lobby! A few of my friends joined up after this. Yes, I saw this in the theater in '86. Watching it with your Dad should really help out with some of the technical stuff in the movie.
Since they are training they set the "Hard Deck" at 10,000 feet, the "Hard Deck" simulates the ground level, if you hit the hard deck, it means you crashed, and now your airplane is a burned and smashed puzzle.
knowing this part of the "lingo" is important for the next movie. Cheers, :)
I've been binging all of your lets plays and then this popped in my inbox. Love all the content you put out between video games, movies, and streams
Any woman who says a aircraft is sexy has my heart immediately.
I thought it was going to be the beachball scene but you found the opening with the jets sexy 😂 don't blame you
And over 30 years later... they outdid it.
You got so much more out it this movie than most! Insights and analysis is right on, please rewatch with your dad to fill you in on the technical stuff. Miss your reactions!
On a technical note: The F-14A, which is what was used in 1985 or so, had issues with the engines in which compressor stalls were common in hard maneuvers. These could also be caused by almost any errant airflow into the engines, which is why Ice's jet wash, which can be very strong turbulence (look at crowded airports and big-bodied airliners) caused the flame outs. This was given a partial remedy with some helper systems in the A-model, but a few years later the -14B was given new, more powerful engines that virtually eliminated this problem.
If they could just figure out how to harness all the horny energy in this one video, that shit could power a small country. I mean...god damn. lol But I guess for now, we'll just have to make do with it being stupidly entertaining. I laughed so much my fucking sides still hurt as I'm typing this, and shocking no one by now, your character analysis is always on point. I don't even like this movie as much as most, but you managed to make this reaction one of my favorites.
ily your comments so much mia 😭💗
This is the best summary of this reaction...
@@QueenTofu your going to freaking love the sequel
Top gun:maverick
@@QueenTofuIn real life when Cougar lost at the landing he could of killed 300+ people...
@@QueenTofu The look they give each other is intimidation to cause a career or life ending mistake....
My first time here...
I was in high school when this came out, and this was the biggest box office hit that year. And "Take My Breath Away" won the Oscar for Best Song.
You asked about what happened about Navy enlistment after this came out. Oh, hell yeah! It went up by something like 500%. Every guy wanted to be Tom Cruise and fly the F-14. Ironically, the F-14 is no longer in service.
Yeah, this movie could be seen as a thirst trap...Quentin Tarantino had a theory about Maverick and Iceman that was both funny, and oddly compelling.
The biggest heartbreak about this movie in the time that has passed is the health problems that Val Kilmer (Iceman) has been dealing with. However, he does come back for the sequel.
I plan on watching more, and I loved this commentary on one of my all-time favorites! Thanks. Take care!
Your movie commentaries are always a wonderful time, Tori, and this one was no exception. My cheeks are actually sore from how much you had me smiling and laughing throughout. You bring such a brilliant combination of humour, charm, and thoughtfulness to these videos, and every single time you leave me even more excited for the next one.
Wow! You caught a blooper that I missed over many viewings of this movie! Space is at a premium on Navy ships, and Goose's locker on the ship would have been re-assigned long before they returned from Top Gun training. Good eye, Tori!
Definitely watch the sequel, it's a good successor to this film. In terms of other films to watch, if you have never seen it, I always recommend The Princess Bride (1987), the most amazing film featuring everything you want - fencing, fighting, torture, revenge, giants, monsters, chases, escapes, true love, miracles!
The intro is incredibly visually appealing, I 100% relate on the feelings there
Definitely my favorite movie reaction of yours 👍🏻 The thirst in the reaction was hilarious 🤣 the is Maverick choking no that’s my job line killed me.
FYI: that senuous love scene with Maverick and Charle was reshot many months after the movie had wrapped up. Studio execs and the director were not happy how original love scene came out. Unfortunately when they got the two actors together for the reshoot both were busy filming other projects. Their hair color and styles were completely different so they shot the scene in minimal lighting so as not to divulge their different hair styles. In the end it sorta worked out for the better.🤓
When I first joined the Navy we had a drinking game. We watched top gun and everytime Maverick did something that would get him kicked out of the Navy we drank...by the time Maverick was harassing women in the club batheoom i was drunk and by the time we were about 3/4 of the way through the movie I decided this was not a challenge I could do with Tequila.
Also yes Pilots are actually this obnoxious in a high school jock kind of way. But they usually make up for it by being alot of fun to be around.
Yes they're actually this platonically gay for each other.
When iceman flew in front of Maverick the jet exhaust went in mavericks engines depriving them of oxygen and turning them off. And when Goose pulled the handle to eject his seat shot out before the canopy was fully off breaking his neck on the glass. Something old F-14s were notorious for.
Yes Navy ships have AC and they did back then, the Indian Ocean is just stupid hot all the time and sweaty men look hotter.
No Navy ships don't have windows so they can keep all the AC in and the bombs out.
And as a "headgear guy" thanks!
it was a known problem of the F14s, when you got caught in another plane's jetwash the engines of the F14 would often shut down bcoz it had weak engines, it was mostly solved with the next version of the plane when they put in more powerful engines.
Those engines had a lot of power but prone to compressor stalls when airflow was interrupted.
I have given your channel content a quick once over and was disappointed to only find a couple of other movies that you have reacted to. This was so much fun. I hope you do more.
In my experience, which is nearly 5 decades on the planet, small, rural towns usually have the best fast food, diners and ma & pa restaurants when compared to suburbia and big cities. People take more pride in small towns and the food is definitely a reflection of that. You also find a lot of small places that are not franchises that specialize in certain foods and those are always a great find.
But go ahead and keep thinking your way.
You always kill it with these movie reactions, seriously, it’s like chilling with a friend. You’re also funny as hell lol. Nice one Tofu 😎
After watching this movie as a kid, I used to go to school in a white t shirt and jacket like that with the aviators. I was obsessed with this movie. So good and I cannot wait to see your reaction to the sequel.
My dad was in the navy when this movie came out. He was one of the headgear guys. This movie was his shit!
There is a great "making of" video on this film, and netflix has a "movies that made us" that covers it as well, I think. The external air combat shots were a mix of stock footage of weapons firing and large models rigged with pyros and dropped from a crane. One of the models used in the "Hollywood" damage frames from the end sequence was hanging on the wall of the Mythbusters M5 shop for a long time.
5:13 of all the reactions I’ve seen, no one has ever commented on the aesthetic appeal of the fighter jets… Top Gun features THE most aesthetically pleasing jet of them all - the F-14 Tomcat. I liken her to a ballerina that ate too many hotdogs - she’s beautiful, agile and graceful despite her size. She can also be mean if you aren’t nice to her. The F-14 was known to be as dangerous to its own crew as it was to any enemy it encountered… this danger is addressed later on.
10:23 “are we gonna disobey orders?” You could say he’s a bit of a… Maverick 😎
12:21 😂 this has been a fun reaction already and we’re not even at the best parts yet
13:49 “I like Goose” 😬 we all do, making events later feel like the most devastating gut-punch.
17:38 I’ve seen this probably over 1000 times, but I never realised until someone else pointed it out, Maverick puts on his glasses, Goose takes his off - go back to them singing and you’ll see Mav didn’t have glasses on, but Goose did - he’s taking his off to avoid recognition.
27:48 😏
41:44 “why‘s he bloody?” Science - the ‘A’ model of F-14s were notorious for engine stalls, which sometimes caused flat spins. That’s a problem itself, but it creates a new one - zero pressure over the top surface of the plane as it has no forward momentum. During ejection, that zero pressure causes the canopy to hover over the cockpit instead of flying clear, so as Goose ejects, the canopy is obstructing his path. His head smashed into the canopy at an extreme velocity, causing one or more of a fractured skull, broken neck and spinal compression (officially his cause of death is a broken neck).
43:51 when Carole says “he’d have flown anyway”, she’s telling Mav that Goose was always going to do that job (RIO - Radar Intercept Officer), the risk was there no matter who he flew with, and that Mav shouldn’t beat himself up over it.
The mission scene, the tally is 6 MiGs, 4 shot down, 2 “bugging out”. Iceman’s engine taking damage, he shuts it down to avoid potential fire spread, and starts it up again once safe to do so (the F-14 would potentially flat spin if only one engine is on).
Top Gun trivia:
The opening scene was filmed on the deck of USS Enterprise, the shot was backlit by the sunrise… you mentioned the lighting, it was indeed a choice by director Tony Scott… Enterprise was on operational duty and was following a charted course, that course caused them to gradually lose the backlighting, Tony Scott requested the ship turn to keep the sunrise in the shot. When the ship’s commander told him it would cost $25k to do that, Tony Scott pulled out his personal chequebook and wrote one out on the spot. In a later interview he claimed that he made sure the cheque bounced 😂
The flat spin scene led to an onscreen death, but it was also tragic off screen. Art Scholl, an aerial stunt cameraman, lost control of his camera plane and it plunged into the Pacific Ocean. Neither the plane nor his body were ever recovered. At the end of the credits is a message that reads “dedicated to the memory of Art Scholl”.
The scene at the end when Charlie returns to see Maverick - Tom Cruise is 5ft 7in, Kelly McGillis is 5ft 10in. To lower her height, a trench was dug into the the floor for her to stand in.
Top Gun is highly lauded for its soundtrack. Lead singles “Take My Breath Away” by Berlin, and “Danger Zone” by Kenny Loggins were both written for this film. Kenny Loggins originally only wrote “Playing a with The Boys” (the volleyball scene), and Toto were originally chosen for “Danger Zone”, but due to a dispute Toto pulled out and Loggins was approached to finish the song. Judas Priest were also approached to use their song “Reckless”, but it didn’t happen… as a Judas Priest fan I will say, “Reckless” is a damn good song and would have fit just right for Top Gun.
You should definitely watch Top Gun: Maverick now, it’s even better than this one… and that’s coming from someone who has listed Top Gun as my favourite film of all for over 30 years… I saw TG: Maverick in cinema and I was blown away! I ended up watching it in cinema 6 times, and have watched it a few more times since it came out on streaming.
Tori, it's great to see you doing movie & show reactions again! Your style is a joy.
To answer a couple of your questions:
- no idea if anyone got roasted by engine afterburners, but there is a pretty good clip of a guy getting sucked into an engine on a flight deck. Am sure UA-cam has it.
- yes, this is a pretty accurate depiction of what Top Gun and other military tactics schools teach.... how to work together, to use the advantages of your plane and compensate for areas where the enemy has the advantage, and how to "know before you know" in a situation where seconds mean the fight is over.
- in the accident, Iceman's plane crossed in front of Maverick's and the "wash" of air coming off of it disrupted the air flowing into Maverick's engines, causing them to stall, and then the flat spin took away any chance to restart them and get control of the plane. The canopy blew off and went straight up, and unfortunately, so do the ejection seats. These were both real-world issues that early F-14 Tomcats had.
- "I'll fly with you." is pretty much the highest compliment an aviator can get, and means even more coming from an alpha dog like Viper.
- most of the Navy's ships in those days were built to fight in the North Atlantic, so they didn't have air conditioning. They are also in the Indian Ocean for the "deployed" scenes aboard the carrier, so yes... they sweat.
- the "shootdowns" were miniatures. The rest are real-life planes in flight, except for some of the cockpit scenes.
YES. You MUST watch Top Gun: Maverick. We MUST see your reaction to it. That is all.
Somehow this video randomly appeared in my recommended feed, and wow this is probably the most entertaining movie reaction Ive seen. You are insanely charismatic! Love your unique mix of quick wit, goofy playfullness, and intelligent insight. Subscribed.
This is easy one of the top 5 most unintentionally gay movies ever made, and possibly top 3.
Literally unintentionally sooooo gay lol
Oh It was very intentional, according to the director
Why not just make it top 3?!
Top Gun is gayer than the Village People
Or maybe you all are reading something into it that's not there
That intro is one of the most thrilling openings in movie history! Especially with those big beautiful Tomcats! ❤️
I'm a flight instructor and one of my students had been in the Navy when he was younger. He was telling me about one of his mistakes when they were shooting off the deck, he accidentally got behind the aircraft just as they were going into burner. Luckily, he was able to get behind the blast barrier and said it felt like he had just stepped in the front door to hell.
He also told me about another guy that wasn't deck qualified that inadvertently walked behind an aircraft when they were doing an engine run from maintenance. He no longer exists.
I keep thinking about the film where a member of flight crew gets a little too close to the engine intakes of a ea6b Prowler and actually gets sucked into the engine. The only thing that saved him was the cranial helmet that he was wearing, he survived with injuries the engine took significant turbine blade damage from the helmet being ingested which caused the engine to have significant foreign object damage and shut down. There is actually video of it happening on UA-cam
“Tom Cruise looks so young in this!” is a statement that can be applicable to almost 40 years of Tom Cruise movies
"Just take those old records off the shelf............."
one of the best reactions of Top Gun i've seen... the editing was great.. i'm subscribing
The best reaction to Top Gun ever. This movie is sexy and iconic, and your "horniness" was entertaining and relatable. Loved your reaction. I can't wait for you to react to Top Gun Maverick.
right, who knows what she's going to do at the beach scene :P
To answer your questions - a lot in this film aviation wise is pretty accurate (it's cool they actually got to film F-14s flying). A lot of the lingo is correct for military flying, there are a couple things that seem a little off tho. For me - it's how low they fly! The US don't like to risk training/operating so close to the ground (makes sense considering how damn expensive the jets are lol). The dogfighting and stuff isn't actually as inaccurate as you might expect it to be - it's a little overdramatisized but honestly it isn't too crazy, they did a lot of good in this movie :)
*Sees Goose hit the canopy head-first at speed* "Is the plane OK?"
Your observations about Maverick and Iceman go back a long time. There's a part in this film called 'Sleep With Me' where Quintin Tarantino explains that Top Gun is a subversive gay romance film. Clip is floating around on YT.
QT and Tony Scott who directed Top Gun were close friends. QT is an uncredited writer for one of Tony Scott's other movies, Crimson Tide (Also sweaty as hell)
@@CxOrillion and True Romance
Im enjoying this reaction! so glad to see you're reacting to movies again.
This at 38:21, great catch Tofu. Mav pushing the envelope in the thin air, flying against a ghost as Goos had said, I never realized it, it's beyond survivor guilt.. he IS searching for a connection with his father when he puts himself in perilous situations. When Maverick repeats the line Talk to me Goos before he takes off on his Darkstar flight in MAVERICK, it confirms this. Thank you for this epiphany Tofu, you've added so much more emotional depth by pausing and suggesting that. Of all the reactions to this movie I've seen, yours is my favorite and stands out, almost as iconic as the films. Bravo!
I Would say this movie had a big effect on me. I joined the Air Force, enlisted after trying & failing to become a pilot because I failed the eye test. I married an Air Force girl, handled air to air missiles almost every day for 6 years and spent most days on the flight line around F15's, and then named my daughter Charlee. What can I say, this was before Lasik was a thing.
My dad was in the navy when this movie released, and he was one of the guys who would do the things those guys at the beginning of the movie were doing only for helicopters. And the end of the film aircraft carrier was one of the many that my dad had been on before.
Lmao. Hands down the best reaction to Top Gun I've ever come across.
Love scene was hilarious. Really enjoyed the sound effect at 32:49 😉
I've seen a few of your videos here and there, but I am officially a fan now! Holy shit this reaction was absolute gold. Can't wait to see your reaction to the second one!
52:00 As someone who served for over 8 years on aircraft carriers I can tell you that yes, they do have windows. However, they are for the Captain's cabin and the people that need to see out (people watching the flight deck...think a control tower at an airport). But there are plenty of walkways and areas of the ship to be outside, so it isn't as if there is no access to the outside.
PS...we do have air-conditioning. Some places are warmer than others though.
Simply one of the best reactions I've ever seen.
I grew up with the original Top Gun back in the 90’s when I was little. I remember wearing out so many VHS tapes lol. One of my favorite movies! And I love Top Gun: Maverick even more! My favorite film of 2022 😍✈️
I know what's so sexy about the intro scene, it's all those sexy F14A's getting yeeted off of a steam powered catapult. And btw, the only fake planes were the ones getting destroyed, all of the other planes were real. And since the US was still in the Cold War in 1986, they couldn't get their hands on actual MiGs, so they dressed up old American F5's and called them MiG 28s, which aren't real
All of the flight shots and footage on the aircraft carrier (which is usually air conditioned, the sweat was an artistic choice for tension) were genuine with cooperation with the US Navy, the only time they were models were when the jets were damaged or destroyed. Even the missile shots were real. When this movie came out, enlistment and application skyrocketed to the point recruiters were there at the theater.
The flat spin was the result of a single engine stall and loss of control, these kinds of things happened with these F-14s and refits were done later to improve their performance. It’s relatable to a race car driver suddenly losing control of their car, these accidents happen.
Top Gun is one of my favorite films and I’m always glad to see people’s first reaction to it. One of the most entertaining and funniest reactions I’ve seen to date. Got yourself a new subscriber! Can’t wait for you to see Top Gun: Maverick!
This was so entertaining to watch. I really hope you do the sequel.
You're not the only one who got gay vibes from this movie. There was even a stage play called Gay Top Gun, which you can still see the hilarious trailer for on UA-cam. Quentin Tarantino makes an appearance in it. I believe the tagline went something like "we had to change surprisingly little of the plot." Great reaction btw, you earned a sub.
"Men don't dress like they used to" As she has cotton candy hair hahahah. I love this channel!!!!!
The red painting on the nose & tail of the P-51 Mustang were the colors of the Tuskegee Airmen of WWll. The planes were called Red Tails and provided air cover for the bombers. They never lost a bomber to enemy planes..
OK, so Tofu is thirsty about fighter jets and their... landing gears... That's what i like to call "Next Level".
The queen has graced us with this reaction 🙇♂️
You were cracking me up the entire video. On the EDGE of my seat as well. I'm gonna have to check out more. Loved the intense commentary. Keep it coming. Subbed.
“Jet Wash” which caused the flat spin that killed Goose is caused when a turbine powered jet engine passes through the exhaust of another jet. Since the exhaust has little to no air in it, it causes the jet engine to stall or “flame out”. The flat spin was common in the A-Model F-14’s due to compressor issues in the early engines, and because the engines in F-14’s aren’t perfectly parallel under the airframe. They are actually slightly canted outward, so when an engine suddenly stalls, it can quickly cause unstoppable and uncorrectable yaw which can cause a flat spin.
You gotta see the sequel. There’s not a lot of romance compared to this, but the character stuff is still great.
You need to watch 300 with gerard butler.. needless to say you'll love it... ;) thank me later
If you’re a Tom Cruise fan you might like one of his early films Legend (1985), it’s one of my 80’s faves! It’s fantasy, creepy, and beautiful. The US release with the Tangerine Dreams soundtrack is the best version. 💕✨✌️
One thing u need to learn is the longer u are out of the saddle after something like this the less likely u are to ever get back in. And u will not be able to get back to the same level u were b4 cause ur going to 2nd guess.
All they want to see him to is engage so they can have his natural instincts to take back over so he can do his job at a high level again and improve.
Never thought I would listen to someone who likes the intro more than I do and I def didn' think it would be a woman lol.
True.. Very True 😂
Haha omg you're funny as hell 🤣 loved your reaction to this movie ✌ you got worked up big time 😆 keep up with great content 😊
When this movie first came out, the Navy had only just commissioned it's first female fighter pilot. She flew the same plane you see in the movie, the F-14 Tomcat. She was a member of the VF-143 Squadron, Pukin' Dogs.
I had to put my ear buds in to watch your reaction. Because of the sounds you made watching this movie, it needs its own OF site! 😂
Loved the reaction! The Navy saw a spike in volunteers for the pilot program after this came out.
You were not only really entertaining but also really insightful and intelligent! This was one of the best reactions I've ever seen. I'm so excited for your reaction to Top Gun Maverick, because it's one of those rare sequels that's actually way better than the first one! Plus in Maverick they are actually flying in the back seat of real jets so all of the flying is real instead of them being on a sound stage in this one.
Oblivion is an underappreciated movie imo
The fact that you think this is sexy is hot. You are the only one on UA-cam reviewing this movie whose never seen it that can actually appreciate quite possibly the most bad ass intro of all time is awesome.
Best review of Top Gun on the internet , keep it up.
The beautiful sunset shots aren't a product of any one technology, it's about taking a risk that a 30 minute window before dusk you can get all of your shots in ;)
Tofu, you really need to look up Top Gay on UA-cam. Basically validates all your feelings about the tension between some of these characters 😏😉
I like the little Last of Us remix in the background while you're talking, haha.
@25:00, people in the military tend to treat people in their units like family. This is especially true for people they have went into combat with.
In the air, the pilot and copilot have to depend upon one another and have trust and respect. So if they can’t be honest and open that could translate into doubt and indecision during combat.
You're my new favorite reactor. I love that you love this movie so much. It was the movie that shaped my childhood and my career in the Navy.
