Why was there so much sweat in this film?

the one that didn't fuck up and need a redemption arc also goose was better than mav also fuck miles teller

Except short guys are proven to make the best pilots

Also they weigh less so you get increased loiter time

Ice was way better.
Maverick was a dangerous idiot

I always assumed this movie was like Big Trouble in Little China were the real hero wasn't the lead actor. I still can't find a single thing Iceman does wrong. You can't even say he's an asshole. When they first met, he talks about how the guy Maverick flew with (who quit) were like brothers. Then he asks Maverick if there's anything he could help him with because he really knows his shit. This is something actual pilots do if you're the more experienced pilot, it's your job to get other pilots up to your level. He correctly points out that Maverick puts himself and other pilot in danger because of his reckless flying. Iin the real world, if the tower says no you can't buzz it and you say fuck it, gonna do it anyway, you're DONE. (FYI when tower says "negative the pattern is full" means there's a lot of planes taking off, landing, in the air in general. Maverick could've easily gotten someone killed.) Iceman gets out of of Maverick's way when he can't get the shot during the competition (Maverick is too impatient and close which is why he ends up in his jet wash). Iceman gives his condolences when Goose dies. He wins the award and shakes Maverick's hand like a good sport. He doesn't punch him out in the end FOR LEAVING IN THE MIDDLE OF A BATTLE.

The only fault I can find in Iceman is that locker scene where he tells Maverick he's dangerous and Maverick get's right in his face and and intensely says he is indeed dangerous while playing with his shirt. Then Iceman does this...biting motion. Not even Brokeback Mountain has a scene that gay.

Good post thank you

Didn't val die in the movie? Can't call yourself the best if you die doin it
