More than anything, the success of the second "Top Gun" film proves fans want content that focuses on being entertaining instead of being woke.

"Top Gun: Maverick" had no goals other than to give fans an epic ride as we watched Cruise whip through the skies, once again, as Maverick.

Fans turned out in huge numbers and that resulted in a ton of money for Paramount.

Hopefully, the rest of Hollywood is paying attention. When you give fans what they want, you can print money.

Shockingly, it's not a hard formula to figure out!

Props to everyone involved with "Top Gun: Maverick" for the film's epic success.
