Armaggedon

Ah, the movie Armaggedon. You know the movie you watched over and over again when you were younger, and you and your friends watched it at every sleepover, quoting it all night long even after it was over? Well, maybe you don't, but I certainly do...Armaggedon. Perhaps the most epic disaster movie splashed with comedy ever made. It's on TV pretty much every other week now, just to remind me that I'm getting older, and I just have to stop and watch it every time.

Favorite scenes:

1. Leavin' On a Jet Plane, sung by the most random concoction of characters ever. Recently reprised by the Gallery of Heroes cast while constructing the set a few weeks ago, this rendition regrettably has not made it to the top of the Billboard charts. Off key harmony is where it's at, and those fellows had it in abundance. Loved it.

2. "This is how we fix problems...in...RUSSIAN...SPACE...STATION!!! Lev is the most likeable self-serving son-of-a-gun to ever walk. Other memorable quotes include, "NOW I AM REALLY A RUSSIAN HERO!!!" And if you're wondering if the caps are necessary, yes. Yes they are. This is how he delivers all of his lines, with extreme urgency.

3. "We cannot use your U.S. Air Force Personnel Only Drill Time Card...who wrote this thing anyway?" Harry Stamper lays down the law like no other, even when there is a nuclear bomb ticking away feet from him. And no protocol following hard ass Colonel is going to stop him.

There are many more scenes, but I might as well just post the script if I were to include them all. In short, favorite nostalgia movie ever!
