    After over a decade of superhero domination, a certain movie absolutely crushed it at the box office in 2022, in what many described as a refreshing change of pace. Sure, it was still a sequel, but still, people flocked to the cinemas to see Tom Cruise in Top Gun: Maverick.
    Top Gun: Maverick definitely raises some questions though. Like will Maverick ever get in trouble? Is this the plot of Star Wars? Do any of these jets have security? Why are they so easy to steal? Do shirtless beach games really lead to such camaraderie? Was that a war crime?
    To answer all these questions, check out the pitch meeting that led to the Top Gun: Maverick!

      Yeah faceless my @ss. There's like only one country with f-14 in service. It's not a bad movie, but the whole premise is literally preposterous, I mean it's a prime target for a cruise missile or b-2 strike, the way SAMs are positioned is dumb, there's nobody doing SEAD or providing cover once they have to go back (until the very end), and that's just a few most obvious things. You don't have to be a top gun graduate to see this, just have a basic understanding of modern combat.
      So to sum it up, the writers were lazy, one could do a more realistic scenario, but of course you'd have to come up with it, and why do it if you can rip off top gun 1 and star wars?

    Why didn't I notice that Star Wars and Top Gun were basically the same movie?! Thanks for opening my eyes, Ryan! 😂👀

      There is a reason for that. Star Wars is based off a real story, that this top gun is based off of.

      Yeah that's why it says a Long Time Ago, it's basically history.

      That was the line that did it for me. It was the following line about balls at the urinal that did.

      You should know by now that drinking while watching a Pitch Meeting can be hazardous to your electronic devices.

    Oh my gosh I said the line "Who are the bad guys?" before Ryan said it and I can't believe I predicted it 100% accurately

      I think it was intentional. It makes the movie feel "timeless" to a degree. It's not based on some time period of history where a given country is giving us problems or vice versa. And it's also rather "safe" and doesn't piss off anyone later or currently because of that non-specificity. That said, it was kinda awkward to do it that way.

      They didn't tell us who the bad guys were in the first movie either.
      The fact that they were operating F-14s suggests it could be Iran. Iran claims to have a 5th generation fighter that's not the Su-57, but subbing in a plane for a different, even fictional plane is also something they did in the first film. Iran is also always messing around with nuclear enrichment, so I think Iran is probably the best fit real world analogue here.

    Pitch Meetings for Ocean’s Eleven and each Ocean’s Sequel would be tight.
    Then a compilation of the Ocean’s film series would be super easy, barely an inconvenience.
