Its interesting watching the replies to a thread like this. It is an entertaining movie and perhaps even better than the original.
What gets me is the desire for a "manufactured realism". Long distance and sport flying is physically tough on the body, and managing the basics like body functions (while this is all going on) has to be (lets say) "preplanned".
If you know enough about planes to catch it -the thing that impressed me the most was the RWR tone in the tomcat.. its totally different than what in the Hornet and they nailed it. My guess is very very few people would notice or even care but it was a great touch.
The Box office is the final word, and that my friends is smashing records.
