Yesterday, I was pretty tired from working all day; and still had a theater event to attend.
My coworker had tickets to a live theater performance called "Tom Gun Live". Never heard of it. Never been to anything like it (except maybe Rocky Horror Picture Show back at UCLA). Videos do not do it justice.
Here's more on the show:
This made me realize how few iconic movies I’ve seen; or how few tom cruise movies.
I’ve only seen bits and pieces of Top Gun and was strangely familiar with scenes I’ve not actually seen because I think they’ve so seeped into popular culture.
The line “you have the need for speed”- I’ve used that line for kids doing vault but never knew it came from Top Gun- I was thinking it came from a Keanu Reeves movie (that I hadn’t seen either).
I’ve not seen Rain Man. Risky Business. The cocktail one with the Kokomo song. A Few Good Men. The tropical one? I did see Jerry McGuire but don’t remember much about it.
I think this was the 2nd or maybe the 3rd time paper airplanes from the audience were called for. Maybe it was the 2nd because no one was ready to throw anymore planes.
If I had only known in advance what to expect in regards to paper airplanes...
If you ever decide to see this show, bring a hundred pre-made paper gliders and have fun!
