Edit
Trivia John Candy died during filming. His few remaining scenes were either not filmed, or were filmed using a stand-in, then re-written not to involve him. For example, his prolonged fistfight with the general, and during his second bar sequence footage was re-used from his earlier bar sequence. See more »
