DC's Legends Of Tomorrow Season 1: 15 WTF Moments From 'White Knights'

12. Top Gun Shout Out

Who doesn€™t love Top Gun? Sure, it€™s all kinds of camp, cheesy and just all-out over-the-top, but for those of a certain generation it€™s a staple of their youth. And to those people, they€™ll have been sure to have been grinning when Ray Palmer put his own spin on a classic Top Gun quote by spouting out €œIt€™s a MIG-21. No one€™s ever been this close to one before.€ Just to make sure that what we were thinking was the same thing as what Ray was thinking, Leonard Snart was kindly on hand to call out Palmer and his reference. And there was me thinking that film quotes and nods were reserved solely for The Flash€™s Cisco Ramon.
