It used to really piss me off when Hollywood screwed around with my beloved fighter jets, mainly because my friends would be idiots about it. I'd draw a picture of an F-4, some idiot would say that I'm wrong, that's a MiG-29, because he saw it in such and such movie. GRRR!!!
But now I've learned and when that (still) happens, I just say "Oh, yeah. Sure." Now I really enjoy the corny Hollywood jet fighter movies, I laugh so hard at some of the questionable physics and re-used scenes and such. Don't re-make them properly, it wouldn't be nearly as fun.
My favorite moment, from a comedy standpoint, is from Aces: Iron Eagle 3, when the old British guy stands up in his spitfire (while flying) and fires a bazooka at an enemy fighter jet, hitting and destroying it. However, the recoil from the bazooka causes the spit to roll upside down, and the pilot ends up hanging from the canopy while his plane flies on inverted.
