Didn't Top Gun also break sound ground with Dolby Surround? Maybe I'm thinking of the Laser Disc or a re-release VHS? I recall it being some fantastic demo material for the time.

I understand you now. I suppose the argument is you're building a house without a door. While you may believe you have everything you will ever need in that house, there's a likelyhood you will eventually need to leave (or somethi
