Was director or cinematographer or someone a fag? Did Maplethorpe advise on this movie?

Scene after scene of shower conversations, Cruise in tightie-whiteys, the volleyball business, etc etc.

Its really remarkable for the era

the hard cut to playin with the boys is a jarring moment in cinematic history

"shouldn't we set this scene up somehow?"

"nope, just pop those shirts off and let's get filming"

saw it again last night. They needed a scene where Tom Skerritt would console a grieving Tom Cruise: "it's not your fault Goose died"

Someone decided: Lets do this scene in a shower. But Cruise will be wearing tight, short, white underwear. Nothing else. Transparent, really. Let's film it from the back, about hip level.

i saw an interview w/ Top Gun director Tony Scott (Ridley Scott's younger brother).

he basically said they had a 'fighter pilot' movie script but they had no idea how they were going to shoot the movie really, what the tone would be, etc.

then he found a literal gay beefcake wall calendar which had pictures of shirtless guys playing volleyball and driving around in '57 Chevys drag-racing on every page. he said 'that's how we'll make the movie. it will be a bunch of studs 'hanging with the boys', only F-16s instead of '57 Chevys.'

100% not flame. this is basically how he explained the making of the movie.

Fuck! this was the dude I've been thinking of lately i couldn't remember...

several topics have come up all in the last month for whatever reason that reminded me of his old poasts - one was the discussion on the difficulty of math courses / math undergrad here on xo and I was reminded of his post about how math below college level is literally just following directions like a cookbook, how in math books the front of every chapter shows you exactly how to solve the problems

That was ages ago, no idea if I'd still find those that funny, but they definitely stuck in my mind... the top gun was obviously too

whoa this is not flame. NOT flame…

Playing With the Boys - Kenny Loggins

I'd say it was the right time

To walk away

When dreaming takes you nowhere

It's time to play

Bodies working overtime

Your money don't matter

The time keeps ticking

When someone's on your mind, on your mind

I'm moving in slow motion

Feels so good

It's a strange anticipation

Knock, knock, knockin' on wood

Bodies working overtime

It's man against man

And all that ever matters is, baby

Who's ahead in the game

Funny but it's always the same

Playing, playing with the boys

Staying, playing with the boys

After chasing sunsets

One of life's simple joys

Is playing with the boys

Said it was the wrong thing

For me to do

I said it's just a boys' game

But girls play too

My heart is working overtime

In this kind of game

People get hurt

I'm thinking that the people is me

If you wanna find me I'll be

Playing, playing with the boys

Staying, playing with the boys

After chasing sunsets

One of life's simple joys

Is the boys

I don't wanna be the moth around your fire

(With the boys)

I don't wanna be obsessed by my desire

(You're shining, you're smiling)

(I'll see it now)

With the boys

(I'm staying, you play too rough)

Playing, playing with the boys

I'll be staying, playing with the boys

After chasing sunsets

One of life's simple joys

Is playin' with the boys

(Playing with the boys)

Playing

(Playing with the boys)

Breaking News: clean cut alpha bros like helping other clean cut alpha bros. Naval aviation, especially 30 years ago, was filled with alpha clean cut bros and a dearth of women. Throw in the fact that the Navy has a rich history of homosexuality and it makes perfect sense the naval aviation community would have a lot of bros helping bros.
