Foundation for Economic Education | Top Gun didn't go woke. Got rich. #shorts @FEEonline | Uploaded July 2022 | Updated October 2024, 1 hour ago.
Top Gun: Maverick is crushing it at the box office, and for a lot of people -- us, included -- it's a refreshing return to an era of filmmaking that featured a compelling cast of diverse characters, awesome action, and good storytelling *without* feeling like a two-hour lecture on 2022 gender and racial politics.
It's a perfect example of what we've been talking about on Out of Frame for a while.

And surprise: Top Gun is quickly becoming one of the biggest movies of all time.
