Probably the second greatest movie series behind The Godfather....Chappy was a fucking brilliant character. Anybody else a fan?

The best thing about this series was that it was based on real life shit, mane. Over Libya.
Top Gun was some made up, dramatized, pretty boy Navy horseshit. 7/1/2012 12:17:51 AM |

I mean, come one dude. Did they expect us to really take Top Gun seriously? Right off the bat, they're inverted, like 2 feet from a MiG? Oh, and it's a MiG 28? Everyone knows all MiGs are designated with odd numbers. It's clearly a goddamn F-5.
Oh and right after that Maverick somehow talks Cougar into a night time, carrier arrestment? Suuuuure. Also, he clearly got the wave-off lights during the approach! Come on, brah! Shit's weak. They wave you off for a reason. Dude should have flown straight into the fantail! 7/1/2012 12:35:17 AM |

Precisely.
The writers/producers of Iron Eagle didn't cut goddamn corners...they made the shit real.
I hope they remake these mugs in 3D. 7/1/2012 12:44:32 AM |

Ah dag, man. Typing error. I just got DEALT!
I've never been too handy with the ol' keyboard, though.
Check this though, in Top Gun, why the fuck were they unable to shake an A-4 during training? Light those afterburners Mav!

Which begs the question:
Why isn't there a VIPER vs. Chappy flick out by now? Goddamn i'd see that mug...

More like Air Farce
But, I mean, hands down Iron Eagle is more realistic.
Chappy just hands over an F-16 to some kid? All right, he went a bit rogue. But his buddy's life was in danger. He didn't hesitate.
What about Mav, though? When Iceman was being swarmed by 5 bogies, Mav started having flashbacks to his flat spin and Goose. Man, he lost his edge. Iceman should have been a deadman. 7/1/2012 1:31:23 AM |

^Indeed...
the screenplays and plot twists to the other blockbuster followups are even more on point.
It is a great fucking series. 7/1/2012 1:34:23 AM |

I can't lie though. The soundtrack to Top Gun was far superior to Iron Eagle. Kenny Loggins? Danger Zone?

Danger Zone is pretty awesome. However, Road of the Gypsy by Adrenalin does give it a respectable fight. 7/1/2012 8:47:28 AM |
