Original Film
- Acceptable Targets: Since it's a Jim Abrahams creation, pretty much every group under the sun - yes, even Native Americans (in 1991!).
- Acceptable Political Targets: Saddam Hussein. It was 1991 after all.
- Crosses the Line Twice: Possibly Dead Meat's death, but for sure his funeral.
- Retroactive Recognition: Washout is played by Jon Cryer, who would later reunite with Charlie Sheen on Two and A Half Men.
Part Deux
- Even Better Sequel: The original film is a clever spoof of Top Gun but the "Ace Pilot Flyboy" movies just don't have the same wealth of material to joke around with as the Rambo-esque action movies. In Part Deux the jokes come faster and is a more spot-on parody.
- Hilarious in Hindsight: After Charlie Sheen's breakdown and claims of "Winning!" the Fight Clubbing scene where he defeats his opponent and says in a high-pitched voice "You win!" is funnier than it should be.
- And, of course, a second invasion of Iraq with an idiot president at the helm.
- Uncanny Valley: The chicken about to be fired from a bow.
- Back to Hot Shots!
