top gun is great because tony scott was like “i want to make a movie about sunsets” and the us navy was like “No you’re gonna make recruitment propanganda for the navy” and val kilmer was like “the studio has tricked me, juilliard trained val kilmer, into being here, so i’m going to portray a closeted homosexual” and tom cruise was like “i’m in a ray bans commercial!”

it really is crazy how quickly people were willing to just let chatgpt do everything for them. i have never even tried it. brother i don't even know if it's just a website you go to or what. i do not know where chatgpt actually lives, because i can decide my own grocery list.

today we are going to learn about horses

horse fact 1: horses are partially exoskeletal

horse fact 2: horses are partially trees

horse fact 3: got frogs in em

these are all the facts we have about horses.

OP that's not even a full horse. You've literally only looked at the feet.

maybe one day we will be brave enough to lift our eyes and look, trembling, at the rest of the horse. not today, though. today, these are all the facts we have about horses.

I always kinda fixate on how Sam’s gaze lingers condescendingly on Steve after he delivers this line, and it’s produced this headcanon where after the VA scene, Sam and Steve go out on a date and hit it off really well and go back to Sam’s place and bang, but Steve wakes up while Sam is still making breakfast and is like “I’m sorry to do this, but I have to go” and is apologetic and cringe-y and Sam kinda watches him dubiously with his spatula in hand but is like “alright, man, see you around.” Whether Steve left because he got cold feet or a mission kinda varies in my head. But it makes Sam’s “if u EAT breakfast u fuckin shit” face in this scene (and the startled but slightly reserved way he initially answers the door) funnier to me.

It… also kinda explains Steve’s little “okay I deserved that” head bob?

also explains

Val Kilmer, the movie star who famously played Iceman in “Top Gun,” beat villains as Batman, and who quipped “I’m your Huckleberry” as Doc Holliday in “Tombstone,” died Tuesday night at the age of 65, his daughter told the Associated Press.

Kilmer died from pneumonia in Los Angeles, surrounded by family and friends, daughter Mercedes Kilmer said in an email to the news agency.

Kilmer has said “I’ve lived a magical life” and moviegoers would recognize him from a range of some of the most popular movies of his generation and beyond.

He played opposite Tom Cruise as “Iceman” in “Top Gun,” released in 1986, which catapulted him to fame. He returned to the role in “Top Gun: Maverick,” the sequel released in 2022.
