Yes, that would be a good idea. Do it. Now!

How could you have got this far in life without watching it already, now that is the bigger question... All the fighters in that movie get me excited, but not as much as the takeoff sequence in 'Behind Enemy Lines'. I borrow the DVD from my parents regularly (I only have the VHS version) just to watch the extended takeoff sequence on the special features. Sweet stuff... I love the adrenaline high...

Yeah thats agreat sequence, I love the song that goes along with it. But yeah, youre definetely gonna wanna watch Top Gun before you get there, Mach 3's FREQUENTLY quote Top Gun in everyday conversation. Sadly, this does not stop when we leave camp. We still quote it everyday in normal conversations if the quote has ANY resemblence to the topic at hand, or not, doesnt matter its a great movie even if it is frought with error

Yes, we are subjected to many very awkward moments throughout life after AC when all of a sudden a quote comes out in English class...[Moderator edit: funny, but inappropriate]
