Top Gun VS. Saturday Night Fever/Stayin' Alive
These movies are really not that different. Tom Cruise or "Maverick" and John Travolta or "Tony" are both rebells but are good at one thing, flying and dancing. People doubt Mav's capabilities because he killed his best friend flying friend Goose and people hate Tony because he's a slummin delinquant from Bay Ridge and has trouble speaking properly. They both go after women that are out of thier leauges but sometimes get lucky in the bedroom because of their bad boy capabilities. Kelly McGillis or "Charlie" is way to good for the Mav, but she is hard up for some fast fighter pilot sex at her little beach bungalow. They have no real relationship but they like to fuck because it's against the official rules that are made perfectly clear in the official rule handbook of Top Gun. Their high maintenence office romance is the most redundant uneventful relationship on screen, which is right up there with Tony and Stephanie Magano. Charlie and Mav have three conversations in the entire movie, two of which they repeated the same things they said at the begining of the movie; "This is going to be complicated" and the other which was some shitty methaphore about crashing and burning. They have like three arguments about nothing and then make blue love in the middle of the movie. Way too much tounge for my taste. Stephanie and Tony just bitch and moan at each other like a brother and sister fighting over the same toy. The greatest thing about their relationship is that Stephanie is a secretary in an office in Manhattan and she acts like she is fucking gods gift to professional working women, she uses this against Tony and the fact that she took one night class at the community college really made Tony feel like a first class sewer rat. Tony shows her some sweet ass dance moves and looks deep into her eyes and it makes her feel vunerable. I think I need to know more about Stephanie and her history, family and relationship history that is. I feel like her father or boyfriend must of abandond her...you know fucked her up in the head a little bit.
ANYWAYS
my point: these movies are the same, and yes I know many many many movies are the same but these two are funny...and typical but still funny and a little entertaining. Everyone is doubting Mav and Tony....Ice Man basically says to Mav you suck and I dont want you to kill me but Mav comes back in the end, saving the day by killing enemies in the air. Not only does he save the day but he is labled a national american hero and when they say what are you going to do now he answers, not with "I am going to Disney World" or "Continue protecting and serving our country" but "I was thinking about becoming a teacher!" Isn't that fucking sweet?? I think so.
Tony doesn't really get to redeem himself in Saturday Night Fever. Instead of taking the dance trophey and $500 that he won and just be gratefull and proud he goes crazy and thinks everyone is racisit and the Mexicans should have won but didn't because he pulls rank at 2001. He fucks up there and then pulls Stephanie into the back seat of his friends car and tries to rape her. Bad move Tony. After she runs away crying they go back to the Brooklyn bridge (popular hangout) his friend "accidentally" plummets to his death while attempting acrobatic moves. Well that put a damper on things...he makes up with Stephanie and then the movie ends. The only reason there was a sequal to this movie was so Tony could be a hero eventually. In Stayin' Alive he has took a turn in his life, he moved out of his parents house, he stopped drinking and most of all he stopped swearing. People still think he is a piece of shit and advantage of him the entier movie but really tells everyone off in the last scene where he started doing all of these crazy dance moves in a dance production where he was a back up dancer. He steals the show and the movie ends, now he is a hero and hopefully they wont have to make another movie.
My point: Many movies are alike but talking about Top Gun and Saturday Night Fever is fun for me.
