And His L0ve Life
Although Tom Cruise has had a very successful career, his love life has not been as such. In fact, his love life has often been the subject of media attention. He has been married three times, all of which have ended in divorce. His first marriage was to actress Mimi Rogers. Mimi introduced Cruise to Scientology. They were married for three years. He met his second wife, actress Nicole Kidman, on the set of "Days of Thunder" in 1990. They married shortly after and during the course of their marriage, they adopted two children together.
11 years later, Cruise filed for divorce from her. A few years later, Cruise began dating actress Katie Holmes. Dubbed "TomKat" by the media, they had their first daughter together one year later and got married shortly after that. After five and a half years of marriage, Holmes filed for divorce from Cruise. It is speculated that Scientology is the root cause of their divorce.

After playing the role of Goose, Anthony Edwards experienced a major boost in his acting career. He is the winner of four Emmy nominations, a People’s Choice Award, six Screen Actors Guild Awards, and a Golden Globe. He was one of three actors in the film to play roles in the TV series "ER".

She went on to star in several popular romantic comedies like "Sleepless in Seattle" and "You’ve Got Mail" for which she was nominated for a Golden Globe. In 1991 she married Dennis Quaid and the pair had a son together named Jack.
In 2006, Ryan adopted a 14-month-old girl from China whom she named Daisy True. She was in an on-again-off-again relationship with artist John Mellencamp for several years. Outside of her career, Ryan is active in politics and supports organizations that seek to protect the environment.
Top Gun Rides
As with many other action films, it was only appropriate for "Top Gun" to become a crazy, thrilling roller coaster ride. The Top Gun roller coaster was built in 1993 at Mason, Ohio's Kings Island Amusement Park which was owned by the film company Paramount. The ride was a suspended coaster that emulated an F-14 Tomcat. As people waited in line for the ride, the PA system emitted "Danger Zone."
In 2008, under new ownership, the ride’s name was changed to “Flight Deck.” In 2014, the ride went through a big makeover and became “The Bat.” Besides Kings Island, another ride called “Top Gun” debuted in Santa Clara, California’s Great America from 1993 through 2007. Similarly, this ride also changed its name to “Flight Deck.”
