The article doesn't mention his starring role in "Real Genius", a comedy about life at Caltech. One of my favorite movies.
He managed to outshine Tom Cruise in "Top Gun". I've enjoyed his movies. Well done.

And of course the iconic role in "Top Gun", and the silly but classic "Top Secret"
As the article notices, he really had a wide range. Probably my favorite actor of his generation.
It's absolutely a classic though. It's a shame that the genre isn't as popular as it used to be.
It did get on a bunch of "most watched" lists, and it wasn't grimdark like all fantasy needs to be nowadays.
But the director did hire Caltech students as extras, as the director put it, the costume director could not duplicate the look of them.
The student pranks and such in the movie actually happened, except the last one and the voice of god one.
