“Trust your instincts! Don’t think, just do.” Kosinski’s long-awaited, long-awaited sequel Top Gun: Maverick is the hit of the year, still playing in theaters and loved by almost everyone who has seen it. But anyone who has seen it has probably also recognized the similarities between the bombing in the third act Maverick and the original 1977 Star wars movie Death Star trench race. It’s almost an exact replica, although I’m sure Kosinski would say it’s a tribute, a tribute, to one of the greatest fighter movies of all time – Star Wars: A New Hope. (Who loves X-Wings?!) One of those Star wars YouTube channels made this comparison video that played several scenes back-to-back to show how similar they are. And yes, it’s super obvious Top Gun lifted from Star wars, but you know that’s okay with me. I love all these movies.
Thanks to Twitter for the tip on this. Intro from YouTube: “Top Gun: Maverick is great. But there’s something familiar about it…” This “Top Gun: Maverick Being Star Wars for Three Minutes Straight” video was created and published by the Star Wars Explained YouTube channel . No editor or producer is listed for this video. Star Wars Explained is YT channel that broadcasts “daily videos about the Star Wars universe covering movies, shows, video games, books, comics and more.” Top Gun: Maverickdirected by Joseph Kosinski, originally opened in theaters in May 2022. Star Wars: A New Hope, directed by George Lucas, which originally opened in theaters in May 1977, exactly 45 years ago. Both films are cinematic experiences that must be seen on the big screen, and if you have a chance to see them back to back – take it. Which of these two do you prefer?
