#4-This is the first movie that actors were permitted to wear official astronaut suits.
#5- Director Michael Bay plays one of the NASA scientists in the film
#6- Armageddon was released on the same day as Liv Tyler’s 21st birthday.
BONUS: I get all misty-eyed each and every time I watch Bruce Willis sacrifice himself to save the world.

ReplyDeleteThis movie still remains one of my faves.....mostly because of the Rockhound dude.
ReplyDeleteThe greatest movie ever made?
ReplyDeleteYou just like watching Owen Wilson die, admit it.
omg, I actually did know some of that! lol
ReplyDeleteI'm with TS on this one... BUT, to be fair, I saw it after I'd seen all the other "end of the world" movies that came out around the same time and I was a little tired of the theme. It was the best of those though!
Michael Bay looks like Jim Morrisson in that pic. God, I'm still fucking droolin and I think I may just slide off my yoga ball soon.
ReplyDeleteThat Bruce. Sometimes he just TOO good.
ReplyDeletei remember seeing this movie as a free movie screening, yet that is all i remember about it.
ReplyDeleteSo they cheated with the asteroid design, huh? Cheapskates!
ReplyDeleteI love Bruce Willis, but this movie is way to schmazzy for me.
ReplyDeleteI thought it was the best of the lot, but that's not saying much...now liv tyler on the other hand...
ReplyDeleteI fell asleep during the first three times of attempting to watch this years ago with my family. I can't remember if I've seen the whole thing...
