Unlike a few others that have done well:
F-14
F-16

Just remembered a few with the Hornet (Independence Day, Behind Enemy Lines).

LOL, I have noticed that about the F-35 in movies, maybe Hollywood is trying to give DOD a not so subtle hint :lol:

On a somewhat related note, The A-10 scene in "Transformers 1" is still some of my favorite sequences from a recent movie, that sequence when the SF team calls in close air support against Scorponok is just...AWESOME

The A-10 sequences in "Man of Steel" are pretty awesome too.

I'm going to have to watch that again - the AC-130 was rather impressive too!

F-22 hasnt done well either, Ironman took down a craptor in the first one I think and they didn't do great in transformers either. I agree the a-10s were awesome.
