Top Gun: The Triumphant Return

Reader(s) have probably seen this already but here it is:
Welcome to Top Gun Week at William Stroock dot Blogspot dot com.

No surprises here. This is exactly the trailer we expected to see, lots of call backs to Top Gun, Maverick is er - a maverick. Looks like we'll have some chicks flying jets, which is fine. We have women fighter pilots today. If we had thought long enough about it we would've guessed Ed Harris would be in a Top Gun sequel. Harris is actually a nice casting choice. We hear Val Kilmer is coming back too.

In 1986 Top Gun was huge, which we'll get into later in the week. In this day and age Top Gun: Maverick probably cannot be huge. But it can be good, or at least decent, which we expect, for reasons we'll also get into later in the week.
