TV writer and our own Tom Cruise correspondent, Gina Ippolito, returns to the NeverEnding Movie Marathon to talk TOP GUN... and a million other things, since she, Alex, and Rocco keep getting derailed to discuss which state has the best rollercoasters, if you can wipe down another man's cat, and Marlon Brando's food pranks on Frank Sinatra.

On topic, they debate the future of Cruise's career and whether he can keep up the stunt game for much longer, if Kelly McGillis's Charlie actually has enough going on to consider her a "good" character (and her real-life inspiration),  and if "Danger Zone" or "Playing with the Boys" is the best song on the soundtrack.

For more of Alex talkin' TOP GUN, check out "IMDb Getting Ready for Maverick's Return Presented by USAA Insurance" on IMDb.com, Friday, May 27 at 10am PT. You'll get to see our interviews with the 'Top Gun: Maverick' cast and so much more. Plus, next week, Alex and Rocco will be back here on the NeverEnding Movie Marathon to discuss 'Maverick' WITH SPOILERS, so go see the movie now, people!

The NeverEnding Movie Marathon is a weekly podcastic celebration of cinema. Dive deep into fan-favorite films (#NoStinkers!), thematically curated to enhance your movie viewing by hosts Matt Detisch, Alex Logan, and Michael Rocco.
