I just got back from watching Iron Eagle in my film class.

I think I've lost about 30 IQ points.

Soooo many inaccuracies.... Passing off Kfirs as MiG 23s... Inaccurate depiction of how weapons work.... Firing a AGM-65 Maverick... From right on the runway..... AHHHHHH!!!! My head hurts!

BTW... This is a Kfir...

THIS is a MiG 23

1. Crappy B-Movies 101?

If I was in a film class and 'Iron Eagle' was part of the curriculum, I'd find another school.

We're doing the 80s right now.

I was told I was fortunate to be too sick for the Chuck Norris double feature.

We did get to see One Day in September, Black Sunday, and Missing. Those were really good.
