Do you people have *no* standards at all? If they did they would all acknowledge that THE classic NAVAIR flick of all time was "Hot Shots." *And it's classic sequel, "Hot Shots: Part Deux." *:-) McGillis finds Tom dressed in womens clothes, and "falls" for him again, would be topical. Not much acting required.

Speaking of military movies, a couple of nights ago I started to watch the movie "Stop Loss" on the History Channel. It was pretty graphic from the beginning with the scene set in Tikrit, Iraq, lots of violence. Anyway, I was waylaid by an evening out with a friend. Anyway, prior to the film being presented, the host (s) of the show said that after the film, said that they would discuss how or if the movie in any way affected US military policy WRT stop loss. That begs the question ... Did the movie affect policy? - nilita |

In sci.military.naval John twisted the electrons to say:

Yadda yadda yadda, dogfight, yadda yadda yadda, dogfight, yadda yadda yadda, sunset. Actually, that's moderately plausible ... IIRC, it was definitely plausible if not directly mentioned that Tom Skerritt's character had kids as well ... So possible love interest for the daughter of Goose there too? -- These opinions might not even be mine ... Let alone connected with my employer ... |
