Top Gun: Maverick (2022)

Corrected entry: When Cruise takes off in the Darkstar plane, he launches at the end of a runway that for some reason has a guard shack on it.

Correction: How is this a mistake? The guard shack is not "on" the runway. It is along the access road at the gate of the perimeter fence. Maverick goes through that same gate, and past that same guard shack, when he enters the base.

You can look at any airfield (military) there is no guard shack or entrance that close to a runway especially if it's for a secret project like the Aurora.

Correction: These scenes were entirely intentional and reinforce the essential theme of the movie. The titular character is in fact a "maverick" who disregards the rules when it suits him - and usually gets away with it.

Works for me. I was just making the statement from a legal aspect. :).
