Could Top Gun: Maverick's Success RESURRECT GI Joe?!

The recent, undeniable success of Paramount’s Top Gun: Maverick has sparked discussion about how the movie may bend the creative and executive decisions of Hollywood.

It’s well-known that successful movies tend to influence successive productions in a variety of ways. The Matrix, Heat, Pulp Fiction, The Dark Knight and many others have been trendsetters that changed the way Hollywood conversed with its audience and it seems like Top Gun: Maverick may join that list.

What are the attributes of Top Gun: Maverick that producers may extract and try to replicate in new movies? Well, it’s based on a popular 1980s franchise; it focuses on a fighter pilot working for a nation’s military forces; it’s feel-good optimism; it’s a good vs evil story and it’s also pure Americana and patriotism. What other property shares these attributes? GI JOE.

In this video I talk about how Top Gun: Maverick may resurrect GI Joe for the big screen and possibly expand it into a cinematic universe of its own.

Lots to talk about so let’s get to it.
