So I finally bought a disc and it's been decades since I seen it. So I got the question for Navy folks in the '80s. Were y'alls that moist? They must've sweated a gallon a day.

    Rarely does a thread go south so quickly.

    I spent 140 days straight (pun intended) in the IO one spring/summer with a quick two weeks in the Persian Gulf without going into port.

    120+ in the engine room, port and starboard watches.

    Yes, we sweated a lot.

    Also stood my watch in the engine room not only was it 120 but the noise with the turbines spinning is why I need hearing aides now.

    Looking back after 20+ years, there were quite a few "happy" scenes in Top Gun.

    LMAO!
    Some will die in hot pursuit
    And fiery auto crashes
    Some will die in hot pursuit
    While sifting through my ashes
    Some will fall in love with life
    And drink it from a fountain
    That is pouring like an avalanche
    Coming down the mountain

    All respect to the white mice and engs and machinists mates and stokers and black gang crew guys who ever labored aboard ship in the small hot unventilated machine spaces that never saw sunlight...

    The ones who when abandon ship was called could never possibly get out alive.

    Now yosh do you like the Rocky two scene where Rocky and Apollo are training on the beach and running through the sand glistening and sweaty and have that big hug at the end???

    Do you like gladiator movies???

    * tentacle porn???

    Only thing missing is John Travolta in a Qantas hat setting up a massage table so he can go hands on with those lean tight sleek male bodies...

    Maybe Bruce Jenner leading them on a March or run - imagine the cadence counts...

    Or Richard Simmons leading them to sweating to the oldies in Tue gym or explaining deal a meal in the kitchen...

    Freddy mercury giving vocal lessons or how to handle a stick at truckmasters...

    Think of the cameos...

    Prostate exams and hernia checks by Kevin spacey...

    If only rock Hudson was still with us.

    Oh imaging The Broadway musical adaptation...

    Sigh.

    Aargh.

    Swiper no swiping.

    It's like every scene from start to end everyone is just sweaty. Except the women. Maybe it's the Blu Ray? Maybe no one was sweaty when show in low def?

    As for Turkish Prison. I did get "Midnight Run" on DVD when I picked up them Jacques Cousteau DVDs.

    I think some of you dandies are I bit to close to the danger zone for my liking...

    Funny aside - after seeing top gun in the theatre when it came out I saw it two more times on the big screen - when it was first released for sale or rent I saw it on a forward projection big screen massive TV played on laser disc (giant lp record sized CD) in Dolby surround sound on a small stage where bands would perform hooked up to massive rock show tower speakers with woofers and tweeters in a room with black out curtains and foam cell egg crate style sound deadening insulation

    Family (uncles and older cousins) were sippin shine from a mason jar - two fingers poured into star Wars jelly glasses from burger king (empire strikes back) and I was allowed a shot glass serving

    I was wearing an ocean pacific hoodie and samba soccer shoes
