hberttmankDamn, I have loved this movie for 40 years. I really love listening to your little piss-ant soldiers trying to talk tough. They make me laugh. If Matrix was here, he'd laugh too.

HRKListen, loyalty is very touching. But it is not the most important thing in your life right now! But what IS important is gravity! I have to remind you Sully, this is my weak arm!

mdblantonJackson: "Downwind? You think I could smell them coming?"
John Matrix: "I did"
I used to think this was just theatrics until reading interviews from some of the MACV-SOG legends like Dick Thompson.

(matrix's watch counting down the countdown of the 12 hours of the flight, which I always loved because that blipping would result in me smashing that watch in less than 5 minutes of that constant sound)

If it flies...
It doesn't matter what sort of machine it is - so long as it can fly, he can pilot it like a pro. Be it a glider, ultra-light, single-engine Cessna, Mach 50 transforming super fighter, or alien spacecraft, just give him five minutes and he'll figure it out. This also applies to when the pilot receives their mid-series upgrade. There's never any mention of the months of retraining needed to fly it... At best, he's maybe a little clumsy for one episode, or if not, just as likely to blast off in it to save the day against impossible odds five minutes after he first sees the thing.
A
student pilot, presumably not even licensed yet, can fly and navigate a humungous twin-engine flying boat airplane over hundreds of miles of ocean at night and land it on water, a less stable and more unpredictable surface than a runway.

Damn you and your realism!! This implies that an M202 fired at a SWAT van won't simply cause it to just flip over. Further, it implies that a person could not just jump from an airliner taking off and 1) survive and 2) not cause the airline to crash during its overwater 12 hour flight from the damage done getting off said plane. Finally, and most importantly, that a Porsche could be damaged in a crash, show body damage from that crash and then be pristine later.
Boo!!! Boo on you and your realism!!!

egregore^^^ In a serious movie, this would detract from, if not ruin it, but in this one, that actually
added to the fun.

Stealth Parody: The film is extremely tongue-in-cheek, and has a healthy sense of humour about how ridiculous '80s action films were while simultaneously embracing everything that made them awesome.
