Did "Tomcat" make "Top Gun", or did "Top Gun" make "Tomcat"?

In fact, this question is not worth discussing, and the reason is very simple:

Only the army in the smoke of gunpowder has a magnificent story, and the army that does not fight will never produce good material.

And if you have to find an answer to the question, "Top Gun" and "Tomcat" complement each other and are indispensable: without the timely follow-up of "Top Gun", the heroic appearance of "Tomcat" will not be known and become a hit; And without the "Tomcat" fighting to the death over Sidra Bay, the storyline of "Top Gun" would be empty and weak.

From this point of view, "Top Gun" and "Tomcat" complement each other, and together with Tom and McGillis, they jointly promoted the US military in the post-Vietnam War period.

Top Gun quotes

  • Stinger: Maverick, you just did an incredibly brave thing. What you should have done was land your plane! You don't own that plane, the tax payers do! Son, your ego is writing checks your body can't cash. You've been busted, you lost your qualifications as section leader three times, put in hack twice by me, with a history of high speed passes over five air control towers, and one admiral's daughter!

    Goose: Penny Benjamin?

    [Maverick shrugs]

    Stinger: And you asshole, you're lucky to be here!

    Goose: Thank you, sir.

    Stinger: And let's not bullshit Maverick. Your family name ain't the best in the Navy. You need to be doing it better, and cleaner than the other guy. Now what is it with you?

    Maverick: Just want to serve my country, be the best pilot in the Navy, sir.

    Stinger: Don't screw around with me Maverick. You're a hell of an instinctive pilot. Maybe too good. I'd like to bust your butt but I can't. I got another problem here. I gotta send somebody from this squadron to Miramar. I gotta do something here, I still can't believe it. I gotta give you your dream shot! I'm gonna send you up against the best. You two characters are going to Top Gun.

  • Wolfman: [watching a video of planes being shot down] This gives me a hard on.

    Hollywood: Don't tease me.
