If this was in "real time" (say 25 years after the 1st movie) wouldn't he be a very senior captain or even a 1-star by now?

LT Pete Mitchell could have left active duty for the reserve you know. Maybe he got recalled to active duty as a CDR and decided to commandeer MCAS Miramar in the name of the Navy Fighter Weapons School?

I really, reallllllllly hope they do this.

It's like watching a train wreck in slow motion. I can't even imagine the potential for terribleness this has. Like "Battlefield Earth" or "Basic Instinct 2"... or... I mean, this really could be as bad as "The Dark Knight" was good.

They might as well make a sequel of this:

It couldn't be much worse.

Tom Cruise?? What a geek! Bring Tom Skerritt (sp?) back as the Gray Eagle, resurrect Goose and have them kicking butt in the name of old dudes everywhere. The only casting question is whether Uma Thurman can be convincing as a Naval Aviator. I vote "yes". I volunteer as the Flight Surgeon doing her [daily] physical.

It has the potential to be uber ghey, yes.

Done right, it could be extremely cool. Of course, given today's mission, dropping JDAMs is visually less compelling than ACM.

Everyone who was old enough to see the original in the theater has to admit they liked it at the time.

They could do a prequel that is about Maverick's dad in Vietnam. That has a lot more potential then one set today.
