I hear part 2 is about drones and such...... WTF? what does that have to do with the Navy? I think they should not stary from the Formula.... if it aint broke dont fix it/// If it is about drones, I wont waste my money.....
 
Honestly, if I had inoperable terminal brain cancer, I would probably go out with my boots on too. I wouldn't want my family to suffer as I wasted away. It's conjecture, but it wouldn't surprise me at all to know that this may have been his decision.
 
They are reporting that he did leave a note for family members. I enjoyed his movies and liked the way that music was mixed into the scenes in his films. A good book about the making of TOPGUN from the Navy's viewpoint is TOPGUN DAYS. Entertaining behind the scenes look.
