“If you were a late teen or in your early twenties in the mid 1980u0026#39;s the world was very different. No computers, no mobile phones, no internet, no DVDu0026#39;s. We had cars though, and bikes, and we loved them, and we loved films too. The original Top Gun captured this moment in time perfectly, and gave us a thrilling ride like we had never seen before. The humour, the games, the bikes, the aircraft and my word, those flying scenes. We went back to the cinema to see it again and again, and spent the following decades quoting the movie. As time went on, it remained like a static snapshot in time to perfectly represent that magical point in our lives for so many of us.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eNow, 36 years later, we are a generation that has lost our parents, weu0026#39;ve had our own children who have moved on themselves, and we now approach the end of our own careers and our young selves are gone forever.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThis film is the missing bookend to that whole generation. The original was there for the start of our young adult lives, and this new film now marks the end. Itu0026#39;s magnificent.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eIu0026#39;m 55, but yesterday, just for one last night, I was 19 again. Thank you.”
