* UnintentionalPeriodPiece: A particularly swift example. ''Wild Geese II'' is about freeing Rudolf Hess from Spandau Prison. The real Hess died merely ''two'' years after the film was released.[[note]]Though the ending having Hess convincing the mercenaries to return him to prison because he has no desire to be a part of modern society can be read in hindsight as AccidentallyCorrectWriting, as Hess died by suicide (at lest officially, as conspiracy theories about it are still galore).[[/note]] Furthermore, following Hess's death, Spandau Prison was demolished, to prevent it from becoming a neo-Nazi shrine.

* FairForItsDay: The portrayal of the outrageously swish medic. In spite of being CampGay almost to the point of parody, he is portrayed as a brave and capable soldier. Even more surprisingly, the other soldiers all seem to know about his sexuality, and not one of them makes a fuss about it. The closest we get to discrimination is him being called a "faggot" once, by the drill sergeant who calls another man a "fuckin' abortion" ten seconds later.

* EvilIsCool: In ''Wild Geese II'', for some Hourigan can be seen as this, mainly for his actor Derek Thompson's laid-back FauxAffablyEvil DeadpanSnarker SoftSpokenSadist portrayal of the IRA terrorist and the fact he never seemed to loses his cool or raises his voice with the closest to that being a TranquilFury written on his teeth-gritting face during a training exercise after RSM Murphy smudges his shoes.
Added DiffLines:
* LoveToHate: In ''Wild Geese II'', Hourigan is a slimy SoftSpokenSadist of an IRA terrorist who is racist against Arabs, trash talk towards the British military including boasting about his crimes against them and would drug his roommate with LSD so he could report back to his boss unnoticed by others. However, his laid-back FauxAffablyEvil DeadpanSnarker charm and the fact he never raises his voice even when committing this aforementioned acts is quite enjoyable to view.
