There's a small window in life when your parents are healthy, your children are little, and everyone is happy and together. It feels like it will last forever, it won’t. Cherish every moment of it.

You're picking the person who will be with you on the worst day of your life. The day you have to bury a parent, the day the doctor calls you to give you bad news, the day you lose the job, the day your dog that you've had for 14 years doesn't come home. That's who you're choosing. And still most people date like they're casting a movie. Do they give me butterflies? Are they exciting? Is their chemistry cool?Butterflies aren't gonna matter when life punches you in the face and when that day comes, you will not care how charming they were on the first date. You'll care whether they stayed, you'll care whether they showed up, you'll care if they made the effort and they made the unbearable feel bearable. The older I get, the less I'm asking myself if I want to spend a saturday night with this person, and the more I find myself asking, do I want this person to stand next to me when my life falls apart

Imagine growing up in absolute dirt poverty in east Tennessee, daughter of a tobacco farmer, going to school wearing rags your mother stitched into a coat, and when you die the British royal family has its military band play your up-the-workers country-pop anthem in tribute.

An apt day to remember that Dolly Parton once recorded a cover of Stairway to Heaven - and, in defiance of every moral law in the universe, she absolutely owned it.

The reason Top Gun: Maverick was a cultural phenomenon is it managed to do what modern legacy sequels (think Star Wars, Indiana Jones, Terminator) failed at for years.

The movie didn't treat Maverick as some infallible god nor does it turn him into a broken loser.

He's still stubborn, reckless, but his flaws stem from his grief over Goose, not from some cynical corner of a writer's wet dream of writing Game of Thrones.

Maverick earns the respect of the younger pilots by demonstrating supreme skill, acting as their ultimate enabler.

The biggest piece of proof this was the goal is in the scene with Ice Man. They didn't recast or write him off screen. They brought in Val Kilmer and integrated his health issues, handling his character with incredible dignity. The conversation between Ice Man and Mav is the emotional anchor to the whole movie.

Top Gun: Maverick proves audience don't mind nostalgia bait or passing the torch as long as the characters they grew up loving are treated like they mattered.
