I do agree that killing off any of the characters, probably wouldn't have fit what the movie was going for. But it easily could've been a little less predictable in places. (The last 'protags saved at the last minute scene' was one flashback away from being a Shonen anime.)

What's wrong with being predictable? Especially when the movie sets it up before the final setpiece. It was a play on that exact thing happening in the first one, where Maverick was the one to save the day in the final hour. Like what would have been better, if it was a pyrrhic victory because the protags don't make it back but win the day?
