The top mistakes in Iron Eagle http://www.moviemistakes.com/film658 en Sat, 11 Oct 2008 05:55:05 +0000 4179 In all of the aircraft scenes, almost every time they showed his aircraft, he has different types of weapons on it. 22285 After Doug drops the Hades Bomb, the next scene shows his F-16 landing to pick up his dad. Look closely at the belly of the plane and you can see that the Hades is still there. 61595 When Doug Masters and all his friends at the Gas station and Masters has just received a letter saying he has been denied enrolment into the US air force academy, his enemy Knotcher tries to humiliate him by announcing it over the Loud speaker. Masters then runs up to the window and threatens to assault him and Knotcher suggests that a Race would be more appropriate to which they both agree. During this whole conversation, Knotchers right arm is up, next shot it's down, then up, then down again. This goes on throughout the whole conversation. 95681 If you pay close attention to the close up shots of Doug's F-16 dropping bombs or launching mavericks, you will notice that the fighter is a poorly detailed scale model of the real thing. In the scene where Doug drops the Hades, you will notice that he is actually a barely painted figurine and that he suddenly has no headrest/ejection chair. 66059 Doug begins to land on the air strip after his father has been moved. But note, the Hades bomb had not yet been dropped. If his dad had not been shot at that moment, one can assume that he would have finished his landing and been a complete sitting duck when he has to get out of the plane. What was he saving the Hades for at that point? It is only later when he actually drops the Hades that he barely has enough time to rescue his wounded dad.
