We got a Top Gun sequel. It's time for a Cocktail sequel.


Let's do this thing, folks!

I already fleshed this out on a previous thread... Bear in mind I wrote this well before Top Gun 2 was released. It's pretty obvious they stole some of my ideas.

Cocktail 2. Or Cocktail - The Remix

Tom Cruise as Brian Flanagan is now pulling beers for winos in a dingy bar on skid row. An ageing Lothario, he is reduced to picking up barflies; women so smashed they often soil his bed.

There follows a redemptive narrative as Brian re-engages with his estranged son/daughter and opens up a new cocktail/piano bar for highfalutin types.

Brian's poetry has progressed, and the highlight of any night is when he treats his customers to a reading.

He finds love with the sultry and mysterious jazz singer in his bar who is 20 years younger than him, and has a ready-made family that finally completes him.
