All the great 80s homages in Renegades got me thinking if there can be a Top Gun homage within its 25th anniversary, this year. Joe gave a toon homage to Top Gun in "Operation Dragonfire" 1989. Much has changed since. Below is a link on changes slated for Top Gun 2. The sequel maybe of Maverick getting moved-over by computer nerds like Mainframe.
TOP GUN 2 WILL BE ABOUT COMPUTER GEEKS FLYING DRONE PLANES Like "IDW Mainframe" piloting computerized drones, maybe "Renegades Mainframe" or "Movie Mainframe" will pilot the sleek new X-47b Stealth Drones. If the X-47b appears in toons, toys, or sequels; hopefully they'll be paired with the increasingly relevant computer nerd - Mainframe... Last edited by Tuskegee Joe; 01-17-2011 at 05:34 PM.. |

It would make a much less exciting film.

I agree that it sounds very unexciting to a blockbuster action movie.
I was watching a show on drones and their operators, and thought it would be cool if a Joe character was packaged with some computers and a Predator drone. I know the name "Payload" is taken, but it would fit perfectly, especially in today's military. |

Way to ruin Top Gun. Love to see Mainframe in Renegades though.

Then I thought, how cool an updated Mainframe may look; switching his gray tech suit for a flight suit, new computer station, and yes, his own carpal tunnel wrist brace. That alone adds character to his character. If the Hub, Hasbro, or Paramount makes an updated Mainframe look really cool (keeping his familiar colors to match the sleek new X-47b) then more power to the Hub, Paramount, and Hasbro!

Will this scene even work with this premise:
Kevin Smith: "You can be my wingman anytime" Michael Cerra: "No, you can be mine" Then the two go to a bar and neither of them gets a phone number. |
