It's about anticipation and sexual tension 9000, not shirtless volleyball bro
I can't believe you don't know this
Lulz, yeah great joke, hilarious framing, but not actually true

Top gun is a genius script, and subversion, anticipation and sexual tension plays into that, but the homosexual angle ain't a thing
The elevator scene wasn't even in the script. The test audiences reported they didn't find any chemistry between McGillis and Cruise. So they had to come back in and record that scene in order to take it up a notch. The reason she is wearing that hat is because she has a completely different haircut from a different film she's shooting.

That elevator scene is key, so good call

Don't agree with the test audiences though, there was chemistry in the other scenes as well, but adding that scene was pretty important, and made all the other scenes work better, so their skepticism paid off

They nailed it the second time, that elevator scene is key, so good call
Yes, it's key. But there was no first take. The scene wasn't in the movie originally.

Tony Scott got the job to direct Top Gun because he made this one for SAAB.

We were running low on certain types of supplies so J went grocery shopping

Said there were no line ups, it wasn't busy, so I guess that's the silver lining

Cold weather kept people home

Wartime conditions, take what you can get

Still, this weather pisses me off

Fuckin Daralon whining all the time, while he kicks back in Florida

Sad to hear.
