Top Gun (1987)

We start season two with perhaps the most known movie of the 80's:  Top Gun! Maverick and Goose enter the Top Gun program for the best of the best fighter pilots. Along the way they find action, love, and hot sweaty volleyball. Biggs and Aaron focus on the movie being a grandfather of many tropes, the soundtrack, the A-list cast, and it's place in the rise of militaristic films. All that, plus a lot of random tangents.

Ughh!

Lady Luck lights some scented candles and draws a hot bath for the soap opera disguised as a movie...Soda Springs.  Eden was arrested for killing people while drunk driving.  He returns to his hometown after serving his time to find his ex-wife remarried, his child playing baseball, his mother obsessively pining over his dead father, a pair of cops who take orders from a used car salesmen, and a ghost.  You got all of that?
