Here's some more fascinating movie trivia!
Concerning the movie "Patton" from 1970,
The German planes are a Spanish version of the Heinkel He 111, built under license by CASA. These are the same planes as featured in the film The Battle of Britain. Ironically, these Heinkels are powered by British made Rolls Royce Merlin engines, the same engines that powered Spitfires and Hurricanes against the German Luftwaffe during World War II.

Too bad about the planned trip to Mars being a one-way deal. I would never volunteer for that.

You mean life in general? Of course it's a "one way trip" but the thought of never coming back to Earth again and never seeing my friends and family is just a crazy idea to me.

Not as crazy as the idea of a round trip to Venus. That's not happening.
Unless Matt Wagner designs the spacesuits. He could do it.

There is a theory which states that if ever anyone discovers exactly what the universe is for it will instantly disappear and be replaced by something even more inexplicable. There is another theory which states that this has already happened.

Matt Wagner's space helmet will have lights on the inside of it. The cameras will catch his good side. From both angles.

Ah, just like the helmets in Battlestar Galactica then! The reboot I mean.

The original had lights on the inside as well so the actor's faces could be seen.
Except for the Cylons. Well, they had a light on the inside of the helmet, but it just went zzooommmbbb zzoommmbb from side to side.
Matt Wagner will not go through a sex change in order to be part of a reboot. Dirk Benedict's wife must have been pissed.

Have any of you seen that show "Longmire"? I heard she's pretty good on that show. I haven't watched it since the basic premise isn't really my cup of tea.
