Jordan and I went to the Idaho Falls Airshow yesterday and it was a great time! It was a beautiful, sunny day – not a cloud in the sky, with just enough wind to keep the heat and bugs off. But besides the ideal weather conditions, they had the Blue Angels perform! Check out this video we took of them….
Amazing right?! They were honestly so good and so entertaining, yet the whole time I was watching them I couldn’t help but think of the greatest movie of all time – TOP GUN! Yes, it came out the year after I was born and yes it’s a little cheesey at times… but it has all the elements that a cinematic masterpiece should have. It makes you laugh, it makes you cry (I’ve seen it a million times and I still lose it when Goose dies…), it has some of the best one-liners (ie: "I feel the need... the need for speed! Oww!!") and when your done watching it you feel like making out on a motorcycle down by the pier while fighter jets fly overhead… or maybe that’s just me? Anyway, not only do those things make it awesome, but it also features Tom Cruise at his finest (pre-Scientology craziness), Val Kilmer at his hottest, and it made it super cool to wear aviator sunglasses (and I thank Top Gun for that everyday of my life). So here’s to you Top Gun, you have made this world a better place!
Disclaimer: This is only my opinion… Jordan does not think Top Gun is the greatest movie of all time. I made him watch it once… he’s had no desire to ever watch it again.
Top gun rocks, i quote it nearly every day
