I Feel the Need...
I actually had a post lined up for today, but I was doing a little You Tube surfing with my friend Jorie last night when we came across this trailer for Top Gun.
There have been a few recut trailers that made me laugh out loud--for example, The Shining romantic comedy, the Mary Poppins slasher flick, and the West Side Story zombie movie. The thing, though, is that most of these edited trailers completely change the meaning of their films. This one, on the other hand, draws out a subtext that's in the original movie. I've always wondered about Maverick and the Iceman, and this trailer only increases the questions.
I hope you get a kick out of it!

I need a new wingman.

Works for me, and in the beginning too. I have always wanted Kelly McGillis for my Wingman.

Matt-
Let this be a lesson to you: when looking for a wingman, maybe you should look beyond the Navy.
CEO-
Really? Kelly McGillis never really did it for me, although I liked her in Made in Heaven.

I still like Val Kilmer, even if he wanted a douche like Tom Cruise. It was the late eighties, experimenting was okay.

LOL That was awesome! Wait for Tom's lawyers to see it and hit the creator with a cease and desist order.

Pole-
I'm not sure which one has worse taste. I mean, look at Kilmer over the past decade or so...
Echomouse-
I wish they would. I'd love to see this little movie splashed all over the news!

Bad, and yet so right...

Bugger, I got to this too late, and it's now no longer available. Oh well.
