2. Me too. First movie in theater in 3 years. I'll be masked and going to a matinee.

That doesn't mean it won't be crowded, though, but maybe not as bad as later shows.

It's basically the same movie. But the airplane/flight scenes look better.

Very much looking forward to it. I was a young teen when the original came out. It was amazing at the time, so I'm trying not to set expectations too high!

for #2.

I was probably the only person remotely connected with VF-51 at the time who did not see it.

if they nominate Val Kilmer for an Oscar....he earned it in Tombstone and has had an amazing achievement list of roles/ films.

13. NO SPOILERS - Went to a 5:30 PM show with DH today - senior tickets were $5.20 each

(Cinemark discount Tuesday) and we were probably 2 out of a dozen folks for this matinee showing. I enjoyed the first Top Gun and this one, Top Gun-Maverick sequel, was more exciting but a lot less romantic. The nostalgia was well done as well, and I didn't feel it was smaltzy either. Great action re-do; thumbs up! NO SPOILERS
