Default The gay subtext in \"Top Gun,\" by Quentin Tarantino

from the movie, "Sleep With Me:"



What's a film about, what's it really about? What genre does it take?

[Duane: What, like the spine? Like one sentence?]

No, I don't, [censored] boy meets girl, I don't give a [censored] about that. [censored] boy meets girl, [censored] motorcycle movie. No, what is really being said? What's really being said, that's what you're talking about. 'Cause the whole idea, man, is subversion. You want subversion on a massive level. You know what one of the greatest [censored] scripts ever written in the history of Hollywood is? Top Gun.

[Duane: Oh, come on.]

Top Gun is [censored] great. What is Top Gun? You think it's a story about a bunch of fighter pilots. [Duane: It's about a bunch of guys waving their dicks around.] It is a story about a man's struggle with his own homosexuality. It is! That is what Top Gun is about, man.

You've got Maverick, all right? He's on the edge, man. He's right on the [censored] line, all right? And you've got Iceman, and all his crew. They're gay, they represent the gay man, all right? And they're saying, go, go the gay way, go the gay way. He could go both ways.

[Duane: What about Kelly McGillis?]

Kelly McGillis, she's heterosexuality. She's saying: no, no, no, no, no, no, go the normal way, play by the rules, go the normal way. They're saying no, go the gay way, be the gay way, go for the gay way, all right? That is what's going on throughout that whole movie...

He goes to her house, all right? It looks like they're going to have sex, you know, they're just kind of sitting back, he's takin' a shower and everything. They don't have sex. He gets on the motorcycle, drives away. She's like, "What the [censored], what the [censored] is going on here?" Next scene, next scene you see her, she's in the elevator, she is dressed like a guy. She's got the cap on, she's got the aviator glasses, she's wearing the same jacket that the Iceman wears. She is, okay, this is how I gotta get this guy, this guy's going towards the gay way, I gotta bring him back, I gotta bring him back from the gay way, so I'm do that through subterfuge, I'm gonna dress like a man. All right? That is how she approaches it.

Okay, now let me just ask you--I'm gonna digress for two seconds here. I met this girl Amy here, she's like floating around here and everything. Now, she just got divorced, right?...

All right, but the REAL ending of the movie is when they fight the MIGs at the end, all right? Because he has passed over into the gay way. They are this gay fighting [censored] force, all right? And they're beating the Russians, the gays are beating the Russians. And it's over, and they [censored] land, and Iceman's been trying to get Maverick the entire time, and finally, he's got him, all right? And what is the last [censored] line that they have together? They're all hugging and kissing and happy with each other, and Ice comes up to Maverick, and he says, "Man, you can ride my tail, anytime!" And what does Maverick say? "You can ride mine!" Swordfight! Swordfight! [censored]' A, man!

All of these theories about top gun being gay are as ridiculous as sponge bob being gay. God forbid guys play volleyball against each other or hug each other after almost being killed.

Well if you had responded to the original post, I wouldn't have had to repost it, now would I?

Let this be a warning to you all.

Well, actually the whole movie is pretty fruity. When I was told a biography was being made about me, I thought it would be pretty cool. But, the final product was totally unexpected. Its like how they edit those other reality shows like Survivor and Real World. A lot of stuff happens behind the scenes that you don't know about.

Anyhow, the director had a hidden agenda. He kept dropping weird hints and suggestions, like he kept going on about which one of the pilots would win a "no-holds barred, nude-oil wresting match."

Tom kept saying he would win win with both hands tied behind his back, so ... Tom's lying on the ground, nude, oiled up, with his hands tied behind his back, going "Who's gonna wrestle, who's gonna wrestle!" The friggin director is jumping around clapping his hands yelling "its go time!"

I'm like "f this. I cracked open a Schmitt's Gay and headed back to my cabana."
