I’ve seen it and own the Blueray. Actually, I have never seen the original. Seen clips but never ever watched the full movie.

Agree. It is epic and an instant classic. I actually preferred the sequel but the original is great also. Acting was outstanding.

I like the sequel more too. But that's just because it's fucking awesome. Doesn't take anything away from the original.

Maverick actually bumped my long time favorite movie of all times (Snatch) down to No. 2.

Brings up an interesting question, if you could only watch 5 movies the rest of your life, what would they be?

Top Gun: Maverick and Snatch would be in there for sure. I'd have to ponder the other 3. Although Ace Ventura or Dumb & Dumber would make that list too. Definitely need something I can watch if I need a guaranteed laugh.

Hoosiers, Rudy, Miracle, Top Gun Maverick, The Longest Yard (newer version with Chris Rock)

I could come with other lists also for this, but this would probably be it.

Good point, definitely need to include a football movie in there too:

Top Gun: Maverick, Snatch, Ace Ventura: Pet Detective, Friday Night Lights or Varsity Blues, and [Still Open].
