Top Gun Maverick
#5
One more thought - the ‘letting go’ theme of TGM echoes Mav not letting go of Goose after his fatal accident as the two float in the ocean after ejecting. It’s not a major point in TG, but it was amplified into one in TGM, and I respect the writing behind that because it worked on many levels. It’s similar to the ‘don’t think’ theme but that’s more overt in the original.

The key element in any reboot is the homage factor and TGM nails that, if nothing else.
