After years of delaying the release, Paramount finally gave the go-ahead for its high-dollar sequel to the original flick, the new one called "Top Gun: Maverick," with A-lister Tom Cruise reprising his now-titular role of Maverick, the authority-bucking, uber-talented fighter jock. To the surprise of just about everyone---the first movie was super popular but critically panned---the sequel got rave reviews all around, and pilots went nuts for the flying sequences, many of which were filmed in-cockpit. After making nearly a billion and a half dollars in theaters worldwide, it was released to streaming services, where it is expected to rake in the dough for years to come.
