Everything Wrong with Top Gun: Maverick


1) Even Maverick can’t drive though an Area 51 gate without showing his ID.
2) Pretty sure the military contractor would have Maverick arrested for stealing the M10 Jet.
3) California has a helmet law, even for Maverick.
4) After being told of the Top Secret mission, no one is leaving base to play on the beach and hang out in bars.
5) An F-18 has look down radar, so they would see even Maverick’s plane coming for them.
6) The F-18 attack would also have F-18 Growler versions taking out the SAMs sites.
7) The F-18 attack would also have additional F-18s flying CAP.
8) The F-18 would not be needed since the tomahawk missiles would have taken out the target.
9) You don’t need to strike a runway with dozens of Tomahawk missiles as they have versions that drop boomlets to crater runways.
10) 5th generation fighters are missile platforms not dog fighters, like F-18, F-15, and F-16.
* In dog fights F-35s loose to F-15s. The goal of F-35 and F-22 is not to get anything close enough to dog fight.

11. Impossible to walk out of the woods onto a heavily guarded military base..there are such things as security fences and military bases are completely surrounded by them. .

Like the security fence that was partially destroyed by the American Navy air strike earlier?

And yet it entertains people. :)

Well it's a good job that it's a movie and not real and no one gives a shit apart from being entertained.

This is what made imdb suck.

-Merlin ended up with PTSD. Not from the battle, but from his time at Shawshank.

-Hondo is still friends with Mav, despite unnecessarily setting their Mach 10 project on fire.

-Slider no longer stinks.

-Not enough coffee spilled in buzzed towers.

-Goose's name on the ladies room alternates plaque is spelled wrong

-Mavs window escape would've definitely broken a hip.

-Multiple people seek out Goose's advice, despite knowing Goose can't talk to anyone.
