Guys, some big movie news. Today, "Top Gun: Maverick"
was released in theaters across the country.
[ Cheers and applause ]
That's right. It is finally out
after a three-year delay.
[ Laughter ]
Yep. When they heard, even Spirit Airlines was like,
"Damn, respect." [ Laughter ]
Yeah, the movie is incredible. And of course, Tom Cruise,
once again, does all of his own stunts.
Meanwhile, every flight attendant who's dealt with
a drunk passenger is like, "No big deal, so do we."
[ Laughter ]
I've seen the movie, and the action is incredible.
The last time I felt that tense at a movie theater,
it was 'cause someone coughed.
[ Laughter ]
Yeah, "Top Gun: Maverick" just opened,
and everyone's super pumped. Of course, a lot of fans
have been quoting the classic "Top Gun" line
"I feel the need -- the need for speed."
Yep. But some people, especially in Washington,
didn't quite get the quote right.
And it's interesting. I'll just show you what I mean.
Some examples. For instance,
Senator Rand Paul said...
[ Laughter ]
Next up, Senator Roger Marshall said...
[ Laughter ]
-Wow. -Up next,
Senator James Lankford said...
[ Laughter ]
Next up, Senator Ron Wyden said...
[ Laughter ] -Oh. Okay.
-Next up, Senator Tammy Baldwin said...
[ Laughter ]
Up next, Senator Bob Menendez said...
-What did he say?
[ Laughter ]
-What does that mean? -Up next,
Senator Jon Tester said...
-Wow! [ Laughter ]
Are we gonna do all 50 Senators? [ Laughter ]
-Next up, Senator Ben Sasse said...
[ Laughter ]
And finally, 88-year-old Senator Chuck Grassley said...
There you go. A lot of misquotes.
[ Cheers and applause ] A lot of misquotes there.
A lot of misquotes. -Wow!
-Guys, it was a big day here at NBC 'cause tonight
was the series finale of "This Is Us."
[ Audience "Awws" ]
And as expected, it was pretty emotional.
Actually, check out this ad that ran towards the end.
Look at this.
-When you need to refuel after a workout, you drink Gatorade.
And when you need to recover without sugar, you drink G Zero.
And when you need to rehydrate after you bawl your eyes out
watching the series finale of "This Is Us,"
you drink Gatorade Chardonnay --
The only wine from Gatorade for "This Is Us" fans.
Filled with boozy electrolytes that'll help you fuel up
after breaking down.
Gatorade Chardonnay.

And we have car that comes in many beautiful colors,
like gray and muted gray.
And one that has many state-of-the-art features,

brought to you by a company of the past.

Well, this is something you don't see every day.
Deputies in Ohio encountered an Amish man
who is suspected of being under the influence
while operating a horse and buggy.
