Goofs

  Fact errors: There are numerous errors in Shuttle procedure and in the depiction of space flight. See trivia.
Fact errors: There are numerous errors in the depiction of the physics of space and microgravity and of asteroids (their characteristics, their behavior and their effects). See trivia.
Continuity: Shots in the shuttle launch sequence alternate between close-ups of the X-71 (metallic, with boosters over the wings) and panoramic shots of a regular shuttle (white, with no boosters over the wings).
Continuity: When preparing for launch, the two shuttle crews board from the same gantry tower, but later shots it is obvious that there are two separate gantries.
Continuity: The Russian space station simulates gravity when it is rotated. The direction that this force applies to people and objects within the station and the two attached shuttles is inconsistent with the geometry of the station. in reality, when the station is spinning in that manner, gravity can be simulated however the two shuttles would experience the gravity a different way, one crew would be able to walk on the floors of the station, where the other shuttle (being on the opposite side) the other folks would end up walking on the celing, appearing upside down to their friends from the first shuttle.
Continuity: Falling objects near the surface of the asteroid fall as if affected by gravity as strong as the Earth's.
Continuity: The asteroid is supposedly rotating in all three dimensions, yet the view of the Earth from the asteroid remains the same.
Continuity: SPOILER: When AJ enters the shuttle after Harry decides to blow the nuke, he is covered in dirt and blood. As he is being strapped in a few seconds later, he is totally clean.
GEOG: Johnson Space Center in Houston is labeled as the Kennedy Space Center in Florida.
Crew: On asteroid, a puff of smoke reveals/reflects shadow of a camera on crane.
Continuity: Two shuttles are launched separately, some minutes apart. But they are shown flying very close when they are leaving Earth atmosphere.
Continuity: Early in the movie, Harry and crew "accidentally" strike oil. Immediately following, when the feds arrive, we see a distinct spot of oil on Harry's nose. In the next few shots it disappears and reappears.
Continuity: Harry knocks on A.J.'s wall with a golf club, knocking everything off the shelf except a few playing cards. Once he's inside the room, some cans and other things fall off the shelf a second time.
Continuity: A dog is seen chewing on a miniature Godzilla toy. In the next shot, he is chewing on a much bigger, balloon type Godzilla. But throughout, a guy has been trying to remove the toy from the dog's mouth.
Continuity: AJ's hat disappears when he is in the fuel pod, then reappears when he is climbing the ladder.
SYNC: When they strike oil on the oil rig, Harry scolds AJ and we hear, "Number 2 relief valve is wide open," but Harry finishes speaking before the end of the sentence.
Continuity: When Oscar is riding his horse in the beginning he is riding with a sunset as the backdrop. In a close-up of his face, the background is a bright blue sky.
Continuity: A.J. goes down the hole to cut a piece of pipe away. We cut to Harry and the Col. William Sharp yelling at him to come out. Meanwhile, A.J. is just starting to cut the same pipe again.
Continuity: During the Armadillo jump a yellow ear plug appears and disappears in A.J.'s right ear between shots.
Continuity: When the countdown timer is at "5 Hours", there is a sequence of communication between Harry and Dan Truman. Between scenes, the timer goes from "5 Hours" to "6 Hours" and then back down to "5 Hours".
Continuity: When A.J is singing "Leaving on a Jet Plane", Grace hugs him. She switches sides between shots.
Continuity: The movie starts on a Friday and they say that the asteroid will hit in 18 days, which would bring us to a Tuesday. The shuttle is launched on a Tuesday evening at 6:30pm. It takes about an hour (67min) to get to MIR, 60 hours to get to the moon, 12 min slingshot, 8 hours on the asteroid and about 4 hours (3:57) to earth after zero barrier. This timeline projects the asteroid hitting earth Friday evening around 8pm. No where near Tuesday evening.
Fact errors: The Russian space station is an absurdity in itself: initiating a rotation to accommodate artificial gravity would in reality threaten the structural integrity of such a pronged modular craft, and spinning the station before docking would be unpractical, as it renders a normally tricky docking to be nearly impossible since the docking ports are on the external rotating pods. Furthermore, a rotating station would need its docking area along the axis of rotation, plus the docking vessel would have to match that rotation, and match its center of gravity along the docking point approaching along the station's axis of rotation.
Continuity: When the two ships are docking, the radar shows that both are docking at the same time, but the shot from space shows one docking after another.
Continuity: When the crew has landed on the asteroid, Harry says something to the effect of, "Come down here to the flat area, and take readings," twice.
Continuity: When Harry shoots at A.J, the wound appears on one leg. However, in the next shot, when A.J is hopping, it is clear that the wound has changed legs
Continuity: When Harry is threatening AJ in AJ's room, he holds the golf club to AJ's neck facing the right. In the next shot it is facing to the left.
Continuity: Chick Capple's ex-wife is holding the telephone receiver in her right hand, but when she drops the receiver, it falls from her left hand.
GEOG: The two crews are shown splitting up to walk to and board their respective shuttles. Launch pads 39A and 39B are three miles apart.
Revealing mistakes: As the shuttles pull to a stop to dock with the space station, the engines still appear to be at full throttle.
Crew: In the scene of the helicopters chasing Oscar on his horse, a Wescam camera pod can be seen on the lead chopper (only visible in widescreen versions of the movie).
PLOT: SPOILER: Killing the uplink to the nuclear weapon would not stop the timer. Once the timer has been started on the nuclear weapon, the timer on it would be independent. It would take an override code via an active uplink, not a killed uplink, to stop it. Thus, Truman's ploy to "buy them maybe two minutes" on the comet would have been useless. What he should have done was use the uplink to stop the timer, not kill the uplink itself.
Continuity: SPOILER: When the asteroid has been destroyed, the footage of a relieved crew at Mission Control is used twice, most notably with a soldier with his hands to his face, wiping his brow and adjusting his beret.
Fact errors: Fire cannot exist in the vacuum of space. Once the oxygen is either burned up or dissipated the fire would die, this would only take a few seconds.
DATE: The opening sequence of the asteroid, said to have caused a mass extinction 65 million years ago, shows the continental arrangement and exact coastlines of today's Caribbean area. Continental placements and all coastlines were vastly different 65 million years ago. North and South America were not joined as shown, nor even close together.
Continuity: Harry had golf shoes and a golf glove on at the beginning of the movie. After he shoots at AJ, and he's following Grace, he has work boots and work gloves on.
Continuity: The feds show up on the oil rig the very same day the asteroid is discovered. This is done after they discover the asteroid, name it, find out when it is going to hit, called to find out who was the best deep core driller, etc.
PLOT: Harry and Grace are picked up by the military, leaving behind the crew on the rig to go straight to NASA and find out about the asteroid. Presumably, time being of the essence, this trip did not take long. Nevertheless, in the time that it took this trip to take place, the entire crew manages to clean up, shut down operations, leave the rig, and reissue their lives - Bear to South Dakota, Max to a tattoo parlor, Rock Hound to a bar in New Orleans, Oscar to El Paso, Chick to Las Vegas. There is no way the crew would have had nearly enough time to do any of this.
Revealing mistakes: In the psychological examination, Rockhound's solved Rubik's Cube at one point shows a green side adjacent to the blue side. In traditional Rubik's Cubes, the blue and green sides are opposite of each other.
PLOT: If the X-71 is supposed to have a Titanium Impenetrable skin to help it fly through asteroids, how is that A.J. after crash landing on the asteroid is able to use the machine gun on the armadillo and penetrate and crash through the Impenetrable skin?
Fact errors: The Commander, Pacific Air Forces is a 4-star General, not a 2-star.
CHAR: Harry sarcastically asks Colonel Sharp if he has any more bullets left in the gun so he can shoot Rock Hound. But the gun was never fired.
Revealing mistakes: When the up link is disconnected, the computer flashes OVERRRIDE - adding an extra R to the word "Override".
Continuity: When the space station is on fire, the first shuttle to close up and go (Sharp's, and Harry's) is about to close the door. The fuel hoses are still clearly visible running through the top of the hatch. A second later, the hatch closes and locks - presumably airtight, because it never reopens.
Fact errors: In a real space shuttle launch, the Solid Rocket Boosters and External Tank are not released at the same time. The SRBs are released first, followed by the external tank later.
Fact errors: After the space shuttle Independence crashes onto the asteroid and AJ is looking for survivors, you see fire burning all around the rubble. There is no oxygen in space, therefore fire cannot burn.
Fact errors: Simulating gravity is possible, but the gravity would be felt only away from the axis of rotation. The way the space station and space shuttles are attached, it would be impossible for gravity to be felt on all normal walking surfaces. And it would not be felt at all at the center. It would be greatest at the walls of the space shuttles farthest from the axis of rotation. NASA has modeled this using 10-30 meter diameter cylinders (like 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968)), and with large systems of a capsule, a 2km tether, and a counter weight. But the smaller the system, the more chances you'd get dizzy if you bent over because the gravity at your feet and head would differ.
Continuity: During the lunar orbit sequence the shuttles are rotating, however the horizontal indicator shown on the dash is stable - showing the shuttle in level flight.
GEOG: People in numerous locations all over the globe are shown reacting to various events simultaneously - all in daylight.
Continuity: Harry says to Grace that the only reason she is with AJ is because AJ is only one in her age group. Later on Harry asks Oscar what he really knows about relationships since Oscar is "only about two minutes older than she is".
GEOG: Grass is clearly visible at the edge of the cliff when the Armadillo comes to a rest after jumping the canyon.
Revealing mistakes: When deactivating the bomb on the asteroid and the timer reaches 30 seconds. The next shot of the timer has been flipped so that it seems read 45 seconds with a reversed 4 (i.e. it actually said 24 seconds).
GEOG: During the New York asteroid shower, you see an aerial view of Manhattan with the Chrysler Building. An asteroid shoots from left to right toward the Chrysler Building, but in the shot where the asteroid blasts through the Chrysler Building and the other skyscraper and hits Grand Central Station, the asteroid comes from the right.
CHAR: The woman at NASA (looking at footage with the guys) says that it's "'Neil Armstrong (I)' (qv) bouncing at the surface". That is Buzz Aldrin. Almost every shot outside "The Eagle" are of him.
GEOG: It is not Turkish dialect but Azerbaijani Turkish dialect that is heard in all scenes which are from Istanbul, Turkey. Azerbaijani dialect is dominant in Azerbaijan, not Turkey. Azerbaijani dialect is not used in Turkish broadcasts.
Revealing mistakes: When Independence declares Mayday, they identify themselves as Freedom. Also, when Independence's windshield breaks open, on the outside shot you can see the name Freedom on the side.
CHAR: At the briefing at the beginning of the movie, Harry is told that only nine telescopes in the world can see the asteroid. This is inconceivable since an asteroid the size of Texas only 18 days away from Earth would be visible to most any amateur astronomer with a good size (12" or better ) telescope, not to mention the hundreds of research quality telescopes around the world.
Fact errors: In the opening sequence, the narrator (Charlton Heston) declares that the asteroid that killed the dinosaurs put up a dust cloud that lasted "a thousand years". Actually, the Alvarezs' research (and all subsequent research) suggests that the cloud lasted, at most, a couple of years - just enough to break photosynthesis and the food chain.
Fact errors: Drillers would never use steel cutters on pipe in a hole with known gas pocket/gas residue. Instead, in a situation with known gas pocket/gas residue, brass cutters are used because they don't spark and therefore wouldn't run the risk of igniting the residual gas from gas pocket.
Fact errors: Due to the space observation technology that the Americans have. The "Meteor Shower" that peppered the Earth would be noticed long before they even reach 1,000 miles of Earth.
Fact errors: As Eddie Griffin was riding into New York, he passes by a few people who are reading the newspaper that is titled "Shuttle Explodes". Sudden headline news that happened after the latest edition of the newspaper is published would be in the next day's newspaper, not the same day.
Continuity: While the NASA team is attempting to override the bomb timer, there is a quick cut to Grace, standing in the observation room looking through the window. We can see the crew down below (through the reflection in the glass). The same exact scene is used after the bomb is detonated. The crew can be seen giving high fives and hugging one another, while they are trying to 'kill the up link'.

Quotes

  Chick: I never told anybody this before, but I hate flyin'. So it
would be an awful shame to die now.
Rockhound: That's easy for you to say. I owe 100 grand to a fat-ass
loan shark which I spent on a stripper named Molly Mounds.
Chick: Boy, that's bad.
Chick: Man, what are you doing with a gun in space?
F.B.I. Agent: We have a national security matter.
Rockhound: Good for you.
[after escaping the Russian Space Station explosion]
Freddy Noonan: Pretty intense, huh?
Lev Andropov: That's why I told you "touch nothing". But you're bunch
of cowboys!
Lev Andropov: Don't touch my uncle! You know? He's a genius of my
family.
Ronald Quincy: I know the presidents' chief scientific advisor, we
were at MIT together. And, in a situation like this, you-you really
don't wanna take the advice from a man who got a C minus in
astrophysics. The presidents' advisors are... wrong. I'm right.
A.J.: Have you ever heard of Evel Knievel?
Lev Andropov: No, I never saw Star Wars.
Harry Stamper: For god's sakes think about what you're doin'. Why are
you listening to someone that's a hundred thousand miles away?
We're here. No body down there can help us. So if we don't get this
job done, then everybody's gone.
Chick: One minute.
Harry Stamper: I have been drilling holes in the earth for thirty
years. And I have never, *never* missed a depth that I have aimed
for. And by God, I am not gonna miss this one. I will make 800
feet.
Chick: 42 seconds.
Harry Stamper: But I can't do it alone, Colonel. I need your help.
Colonel William Sharp: You swear on your daughter's life, on my
family's, that you can hit that mark.
Harry Stamper: I will make 800 feet. I swear to God I will.
Colonel William Sharp: Then let's turn this bomb off.
Denise: What are you doing here?
Chick: I was just passing by on the, uh, I came...
Tommy: [comes onto the porch with a toy] Who's he?
Denise: That man's a salesman. Would you go inside? Thank you.
Chick: [Tommy goes inside the house] He got big.
Denise: You can't come around like this. The court says you can't. It
confuses him.
Chick: No I know. I just... I wanted to say that I'm sorry about
everything, and... I got something coming up, something kinda big.
You just might be proud of me. Would you do something for me? Would
you just give him this. You don't have - you don't have to tell him
who it's from just...
[puts a toy shuttle on the porch]
Grace Stamper: I understand that you were handicapped by a natural
immaturity, and I forgive you.
President: We didn't see this thing coming?
Dan: Well, our object collison budget's a million dollars. That
allows us to track about 3% of the sky, and beg'n your pardon sir,
but it's a big-ass sky.
Rockhound: This is so much fun, it's freaky!
Rockhound: Well it's about time, I haven't thrown up in about an
hour.
Harry Stamper: I ain't gonna kill him. I'm just gonna take a foot off
of him. A man can work with one foot.
Harry Stamper: How long you work for me?
A.J.: Five wonderful years.
Harry Stamper: In five years you have *never* apologized to me this
quickly. Something's goin' on here, I'm gonna find out what it is.
Max: God, it sucks up here.
General Kimsey: If you're trying to make me feel better about this
scenario, give it up.
Truman: To tell you the truth, I'm kind of encouraged. This guy Chick
here was an Air Force commando for six years.
General Kimsey: We got robbery, assault, arrest, resisting arrest. We
got a collection agent for the mob. Two of these guys have done
serious time.
Truman: Look, they're the best at what they do.
General Kimsey: So am I. And I'm not so optimistic. We spend 250
billion dollars a year on defense. And here we are. The fate of the
planet is in the hands of a bunch of retards I wouldn't trust with
a potato gun.
Grace Stamper: Listen, Harry, A.J. is my choice - my choice and not
yours.
Harry Stamper: He's the only one in your age bracket, Grace. It's not
a choice, it's a lack of options.
Oscar: Great, I got that "excited/scared" feeling. Like 98% excited,
2% scared. Or maybe it's more - It could be two - it could be 98%
scared, 2% excited but that's what makes it so intense, it's so -
confused. I can't really figure it out. [to NASA tech strapping him
in] Will you make mine really tight, 'cause I don't wanna fall out.
I mean, almost to the point of cutting off circulation.
Harry Stamper: What's your contingency plan?
Truman: Contingency plan?
Harry Stamper: Your backup plan. You gotta have some kind of backup
plan, right?
Truman: No, we don't have a back up plan. This is it.
Harry Stamper: And this is the best that you c - that the-the
government, the *U.S. government* can come up with? I mean,
you-you're NASA for cryin' out loud, you put a man on the moon,
you're geniuses! You-you're the guys that think this shit up! I'm
sure you got a team of men sitting around somewhere right now just
thinking shit up and somebody backing them up! You're telling me
you don't have a backup plan, that these eight boy scouts right
here, that is the world's hope, that's what you're telling me?
Truman: Yeah.
Harry Stamper: None of you have to go. We can all just sit here on
Earth, wait for this big rock to crash into it, kill everything and
everybody we know. United States government just asked us to save
the world. Anybody wanna say no?
Chick: 20 years. Haven't turned you down once. Not about to start
now. I'm there.
Freddy Noonan: Guess I can't let you go up there alone.
Bear: I'm with you.
Oscar: Man, this is - this is historic. Guys, this is, like, deep
blue hero stuff! Of course I'm in.
Rockhound: While I don't share *his* enthusiasm, you know me. Beam me
up, Scotty!
Harry Stamper: You all right, Max?
Max: I-I don't, I-I don't... Whatever you think.
Harry Stamper: [to A.J] How about you?
A.J.: I'm in.
Harry Stamper: All right then. We go.
Rockhound: I don't mean to be the materialistic weasel of this group,
but do you think we'll get hazard pay out of this?
Harry Stamper: Houston, you have a problem. You see, I promised my
little girl that I'd be comin' home. Now I don't know what you
people are doing down there, but we've got a hole to dig up here!
Karl: Sir, I'm retired navy, I know all about classified. But one
more thing. The person that finds her gets to name her right?
Dan: Yes-yes that's right, that's right.
Karl: I wanna name her Dottie after my wife. She's a vicious
life-sucking bitch from which there is no escape.
Rockhound: Guess what guys, it's time to embrace the horror! Look,
we've got front row tickets to the end of the earth!
A.J.: You know what I was thinkin'?
Grace Stamper: What?
A.J.: I-I really don't think that the animal cracker qualifies as a
cracker.
Grace Stamper: Why?
A.J.: Well cause it's sweet, which to me suggests cookie, and, you
know, I mean putting cheese on something is sort of the defining
characteristic of what makes a cracker a cracker. I don't know why
I thought of that, I just...
Grace Stamper: Baby, you have such sweet pillow talk.
Colonel William Sharp: It takes two people to fly this thing. Either
we all stay and die, or you guys draw straws.
Rockhound: I say we all stay and die. [pause, everyone looks at
Rockhound] But that's me.
AJ: I'll draw. Let's draw.
Harry: Nobody's gonna draw straws. I'll stay and take care of it.
Chick: Well, I can't live with that sort of thing.
Lev Andropov: Nobody asked you if you could live with it, all right?
Lev Andropov: Bullshit! No way I will let you volunteer for this, so
I can go back to my home country like the man who did not
volunteer! No way!
Bear: Hey man, let's draw, and let's see who's gonna stay up here and
dance.
Rockhound: Hey guys? I-I know you guys think I'm crazy right now but,
I would really like this responsibility.
Harry: All right. All right.
Rockhound: I can do it!
Harry: Let's just draw straws and get it over with. Come on.
Chick: I ain't drawin' against you, Harry.
Harry: Well, I'm gonna draw against you Chick, so you better just go
ahead and do it.
[They draw straws]
Chick: Just gimme this thing.
Lev Andropov: [Lev looks at the straw he has drawn] Is this good, or
bad?
[A.J. has drawn the short straw]
AJ: Oh man. Well, we all gotta die right? I'm the guy who gets to do
it saving the world.
Lev Andropov: It's stuck, yes?
Watts: Back off! You don't know the components!
Lev Andropov: [annoyed] Components. American components, Russian
Components, ALL MADE IN TAIWAN!
Colonel William Sharp: Miss Stamper? Colonel Willie Sharp, United
States Airforce, ma'am. Requesting permission to shake the hand of
the daughter of the bravest man I've ever met.
Colonel William Sharp: United States astronauts train for years. You
have twelve days.
Colonel William Sharp: Talk about the wrong stuff.
A.J.: You know it's all funny until somebody gets shot in the leg.
Chick: Harry, the clock on that nine-foot nuclear weapon is ticking.
Grace Stamper: First time I got my period, Rock had to take me into
Tai-Pei for Tampax. And then he had to show me how to use them,
Harry.
[off Harry's stern look]
Rockhound: Ho-ho. I ju- No I-I told her how to use it. I didn't show
her, Harry.
Dr. Banks: [going through the roughnecks' medical reports] Fail.
Fail. Depressively fail! One toxicology analysis revealed ketamin,
that is a very powerful sedative!
Harry: Sedatives are used all the time, doctor.
Dr. Banks: Well this one's used on horses.
Harry: Some of these guys are pretty big.
Dr. Banks: [to Truman] You know, it would normally take 18 months to
psychologically prepare pre-screened, viable subjects for space
travel. We have seen evidence of a wide fariety of territorial
aggression.
Dan: Can they *physically* survive the trip? That's all I need to
know here, okay?
Dr. Banks: Personally, I don't know how they survived the tests.
Rockhound: You wanna compare brainpans? I won the Westinghouse prize
when I was 12, big deal. Published at 19, so what. I got a double
doctorate from MIT at 22, Chemistry and Geology. I taught at
Princton for two and a half years.
Harry Stamper: Come on, God, just a little help. It's all I'm asking.
Max: I think we're close enough, He might have heard ya.
President: I address you tonight not as the President of the United
States, not as the leader of a country, but as a citizen of
humanity. We are faced with the very gravest of challenges. The
Bible calls this day "Armageddon" - the end of all things. And yet,
for the first time in the history of the planet, a species has the
technology to prevent its own extinction. All of you praying with
us need to know that everything that can be done to prevent this
disaster is being called into service. The human thirst for
excellence, knowledge; every step up the ladder of science; every
adventurous reach into space; all of our combined modern
technologies and imaginations; even the wars that we've fought have
provided us the tools to wage this terrible battle. Through all of
the chaos that is our history; through all of the wrongs and the
discord; through all of the pain and suffering; through all of our
times, there is one thing that has nourished our souls, and
elevated our species above its origins, and that is our courage.
The dreams of an entire planet are focused tonight on those
fourteen brave souls traveling into the heavens. And may we all,
citizens the world over, see these events through. God speed, and
good luck to you.
Colonel William Sharp: [In response to Rockhound riding the nuclear
warhead] Get off... the nuclear... warhead.
Rockhound: I was doing that guy from that movie, you know, Slim
Pickens, where he rides it all the way in, the nuclear warhead.
Colonel William Sharp: Now.
Rockhound: Oh, you didn't see that one, huh?
Rockhound: [after getting off the nuclear warhead] Hey Sharp! No
nukes! No nukes! No nukes!
Harry Stamper: [Harry turns to Sharp] You got any more bullets in
that gun, Sharp?
Rockhound: God, I hate knowing everything.
Rockhound: You know we're sitting on four million pounds of fuel, one
nuclear weapon and a thing that has 270,000 moving parts built by
the lowest bidder. Makes you feel good, doesn't it?
Max: Something's wrong.
Rockhound: Yeah, it's all wrong, man. We shouldn't even be up here.
Rockhound: Wow. Got a great view of the Earth from here. Too bad
we'll never set foot on her again.
Grace Stamper: You have not told them yet. That is my father up
there!
Dan: [to General Kimsey] This is one order you shouldn't follow and
you fucking know it!
A.J.: If anybody's anybody, I'm Han and you're-you're Chewbacca.
Oscar: Chewy? Have you even *seen* Star Wars?
Helga the Nurse: Mr. Chappell, you're next
Chick: Aw, gee, lady. I just came here to drill.
Helga the Nurse: Oh! [Holds up anal probe] So did I.
Truman: So what's the verdict?
Harry Stamper: They'll do it. They've made a few requests though.
Truman: Such as?
Harry Stamper: [riffles through sheets of paper] Well, there's uh,
few things here, uh... nothin' really big, uh, just- Well, as an
example, uh, uh, Oscar here, he's got some outstanding parking
tickets. Wants them wiped off his record.
Oscar: [shouting from balcony] Fifty-six tickets in seven states...
Harry Stamper: [to Oscar] I'll-I'll tell 'em Oscar, you got it.
Oscar: Okay.
Harry Stamper: Uh, Noonan's got two women friends that he'd like to
see made American citizens no questions asked. Max would like you
to... bring back eight-track tapes. Not sure if that's gonna work,
but, uh, let's see what else. Um, Chick wants a full week's
Emperor's Package at Caesar's Palace. Um - hey, you guys wouldn't
be able to tell us who actually killed Kennedy, would ya? [pause,
turns and shakes his head] Um, Bear would like to stay at the...
[tries to read writing] "White horse"? [looks up at Bear]
Bear: White, *House*. White House.
Harry Stamper: White House. Yeah, he'd like to stay in the Lincoln
bedroom of the White House for the summer. Stuff like that.
Truman: Sure, I think we can, uh, take care of... some of that.
Rockhound: [shouting from balcony] Harry!
Harry Stamper: [motions back at Rockhound] Yeah one more thing, um...
none of them wanna pay taxes again. [pauses] Ever.
A.J.: This is great. We just happen to run into the Grand Canyon on
the asteroid.
Lev Andropov: I told you, you took wrong way, wrong road.
A.J.: What? What road? Do you see any roads around here?
Lev Andropov: You know what, I do not have much pleasure being near
God's ear, but you think this is looking good or what?
A.J.: Lev, why don't you just do humanity a favor and just shut the
hell up?
Max: Who's that for? Mr. Ed? You stick that thing in me, I'm gonna
stab you in the heart with it. You ever see Pulp Fiction?
Harry Stamper: AJ, I got just five words for you: Damn glad to see
you boy!
A.J.: That's six words.
Lev Andropov: I'm stepping outside.
A.J.: You're-you're going outside?
Lev Andropov: I am the only certified astronaut. And I'm saving your
American ass!
Vinnie the loanshark: This is a pretty big loan. Why don't you count
the cash?
Rockhound: Nah, this feels like a hundred grand to me.
Vinnie the loanshark: I'm giving you this for 60%, I hope you know
what you're doing, because I'll bust your head with a sledgehammer.
Rockhound: [grinning] You'll get your money back!
Vinnie the loanshark: You don't look too healthy, you're not gonna
die on me are you?
Rockhound: Let's just say no more than you are. [laughs] Thanks Vic!
Oscar: This is space! Course, we're just in the beginning part of
space, we-we haven't even got to *outer* space yet!
Karl: Get my phone book, get those names of those guys from NASA.
Dottie: Excuse me? Am I wearing a sign that says "Karl's slave"?
Karl: [shouting] Go get my goddamn phone book! Get the book! Get the
book! Get the book!
Rockhound: [leafing through the Rorschach inkblots] Woman with large
breasts... woman with medium breasts...
Rockhound: Wow, this is a goddamn Greek tragedy.
Rockhound: [after stepping onto the asteroid] This place is like Dr.
Seuss's worst nightmare!
Rockhound: What does that mean?
Colonel William Sharp: It means we've got a busted ship.
Rockhound: A busted ship? And I'm strapped in here? I had a great
spot picked out there!
Harry Stamper: Quincy! Somebody tell me what this is. Plastic ice
cream scoop? What'd that cost? About $400.
[first lines]
[Camera shoots past the moon to slowly zoom in on the Earth]
Narrator: This is the Earth, at a time when the dinosaurs roamed a
lush and fertile planet.
[From behind the camera, a giant asteroid appears, speeding towards
the Earth ahead of it]
Narrator: A piece of rock just 6 miles wide changed all that.
[Blazing through the atmosphere, the asteroid impacts with a
spectacular display of fire and destruction]
Narrator: It hit with the force of 10,000 nuclear weapons. A trillion
tons of dirt and rock hurtled into the atmosphere, creating a
suffocating blanket of dust the sun was powerless to penetrate for
a thousand years. It happened before. It will happen again. It's
just a question of when.
[military guys are talking to Harry]
Rockhound: Harry!
Harry Stamper: What?
Rockhound: Man, I swear to God, she never told me her age.
Harry Stamper: It's all right, relax. It's about me.
Rockhound: Oh. [to military guys] Forget it!
Bear: What's up, Harry? Did NASA find oil on Uranus, man?
Oscar: Ok, Mr. Truman, let's say that we actually do land on this.
What's it gonna be like up there?
Truman: 200 degrees in the sunlight, minus 200 in the shade, canyons
of razor-sharp rock, unpredictable gravitational conditions,
unexpected eruptions, things like that.
Oscar: Okay, so the scariest environment imaginable. Thanks. That's
all you gotta say, scariest environment imaginable.
Grace Stamper: Baby, do you think its possible that anyone else in
the world is doing this very same thing at this very same moment?
A.J.: I hope so, otherwise, what the hell are we trying to save?
Rockhound: Harry, this is illegal man.
Harry Stamper: I'm temporarily insane, Rock, it's all right.
Rockhound: Okay, Cyclops Lady's starting to bug me.
Lev Andropov: This is how we fix problem in the Russian space
station!
[hits panel with tool]
Truman: Now let's keep the laughter to a minimum. I know this is not
to scale. Both shuttles will take off Tuesday at 6:30pm. Now, 67
minutes later, you're gonna dock with the Russian Space Station to
meet cosmonaut Andropov, who will refuel the shuttles with liquid
O2 - that's your fuel - then you'll release and take a 60 hour trip
toward the moon. Now we only have one shot of landing on this rock,
and that's precisely when the asteroid passes by the moon. You'll
then use lunar gravity and burn your thrusters, slingshotting you
around the moon, coming up behind the asteroid. You'll be upward of
11 G's.
Oscar: I tell you one thing that really drives me nuts, is people who
think that Jethro Tull is just a person in a band.
Psychologist: Who is Jethro Tull?
Colonel William Sharp: This is insane.
Harry Stamper: [to Rockhound] Have you lost your mind?
Colonel William Sharp: He's got space dementia.
Harry Stamper: Grace, I know I promised you I was coming home.
Grace Stamper: I-I don't under-understand.
Harry Stamper: [sighs] Looks like I'm gonna have to break that
promise.
AJ: [Sharp reaches to cut engines, to return to the asteroid, since
Stamper has not blown it yet]
AJ: Harry'll do it. I know it. He doesn't know how to fail.
[Sharp withdraws his hand]
A.J.: Just tell Grace that, uh, that I'll always be with her. Okay?
Can you do that?
Harry Stamper: Yeah. Okay, kid.
Harry Stamper: [pulls AJ's air hose out and rips off his own mission
badge and hands it to AJ] Give this to Truman. Make sure Truman
gets that! Get in there.
[pushes AJ back into the hatch and closes the door]
Harry Stamper: It's my turn now.
A.J.: Harry! Harry! You can't do this to me! It's my job!
Harry Stamper: You go take care of my little girl now. That's your
job. Always thought of you as a son. Always. But, I'd be damn proud
to have you marry Grace.
A.J.: [beginning to cry] Harry.
Harry Stamper: You take care of yourself. [pushes a button sending
the hatch up]
A.J.: Harry, no!
Harry Stamper: I love you, boy.
A.J.: Harry, I love you! Don't Harry! Wait a minute! Harry, no!
Harry Stamper: Bye, son.
Grace Stamper: I, um, I lied to you, too, when I told you that I
didn't wanna be like you, because I am like you. Everything good
that I have inside of me I have from you.
[getting arrested by a policeman after a strip club brawl]
Rockhound: You are SO messin' with national security right now, man!
You are FIRED tomorrow morning, I'm tellin' ya! I'll get the CIA
and the FBI, you'll be workin' security at Toys R' Us!
Rockhound: Yeah, I remember this one. It's where the, uh, the coyote
sat his ass down in a slingshot then he strapped himself to an Acme
rocket. Is that - is that what we're doin' here?
Harry Stamper: [under his breath] Rockhound.
Rockhound: No, no, really, because it didn't work out too well for
the coyote, Harry.
Harry Stamper: [talking over him] Hey, Rock. Knock it off.
Truman: Well, actually, we have a lot better rockets than the coyote.
Lev Andropov: Now I'm really a Russian hero!
Harry Stamper: [his last words]
Harry Stamper: WE WIN, GRACIE!
[A.J, Lev, and Bear are making the canyon jump and Lev is flying
outside on the armadillo trying to fix it]
Lev Andropov: I'm sorry A.J. I was way off on the odds!
[AJ, Lev, and Bear are about to make the canyon jump]
Bear: Just for the record, this is a very bad idea!
Stu, the Cabbie: [asteroids are hitting New York; sees a flying
burning taxi in front of him] Oh, we at war! Saddam Hussein is
bombing us!
Bear: [sobbing in front of Dr. Banks] I am not crazy! I'm just a
little emotional right now, ok? Ya'll throwing all this stuff at
me, man! Look, I mean, after this is over, can I like get a hug
from you or something?
AJ: [as the two shuttles are rounding the Moon pulling Gs] Is this
supposed to be like this?
Oscar: Don't worry! This is normal!
Bear: How would you know?
Little Guy: [shouting] Somebody dial 911!
Walter Clark: [to Grace, after AJ resurfaces] Your boyfriend's back.
General Kimsey: And the ones this morning?
Dan: Uh, those were nothing. Uh, they're the size of basketballs and,
uh, Volkswagens, things like that.
[Rockhound is duct taped down inside the spaceship to keep him out of
trouble]
Rockhound: Just tryin' to have some fun before I died!
Truman: [a team of soldiers come into the control room via the
elevators] What is this?
General Kimsey: Secondary protocol.
Truman: But they haven't drilled the damn hole yet!
General Kimsey: The president's advisors feel that the drilling isn't
working. And we've lost radio contact, maybe for good. We've only
got a few minutes left of guaranteed ability to remote detonate
that nuke. If we don't do it now, we could lose control and we may
never get it back.
Truman: Well, you tell the president that he better fire his
so-called advisors! And if you detonate that nuke on the surface,
we've wasted a perfectly good bomb. And we have one chance to save
this planet!
Tommy: Mom, that salesman's on TV.
Denise: That man's not a salesman. That's your daddy.
[last lines]
Dan: Welcome back, Cowboy.
AJ: Uh, Harry wanted you to have this.
[A.J. hands Dan the Shuttle Mission Patch]
Dan: He did, huh?
Harry Stamper: If we don't put this bomb down in a hole 800 feet onto
a fault line, all you're gonna have is a real expensive fireworks
show.
Truman: [explaining to the Stampers about the asteroid] So, when the
rogue comet hit the asteroid belt, it sent shrapnel right for us.
For the next 15 days, the Earth's in a shooting gallery. Even if
the asteroid itself hits the water, it's still hitting land. It'll
flash boil millions of galleons of sea water and slam into the
ocean bedrock. Now if it's a Pacific Ocean impact, which we think
it will be, it'll create a tidal wave 3 miles high, travel at a
thousand miles an hour, covering California, and washing up in
Denver. Japan's gone, Australia's wiped out. Half the world's
population will be incinerated by the heat blast, and the rest will
freeze to death from nuclear winter.
Ronald Quincy: [holds out his hand] Imagine a firecracker in the palm
of your hand. You set it off, what happens? You burn your hand,
right? You close your fist around the same firecracker, [clenches
his hand into a fist] and set it off. Your wife's gonna be opening
your ketchup bottles the rest of your life.
Rockhound: We're in segment 202, lateral grid 9, site 15H32 - give or
take a few yards. Captain American here blew the landing by 26
miles!
Colonel William Sharp: How the hell do you know that?
Rockhound: Because I'm a genius.
Watts: The gauges will not read; they're all peaked like we're
plugged into some magnetic field
Rockhound: [sarcastically] Well, who on the spaceship wants to know
why?
Gruber, Munitions Specialist: By all means.
Rockhound: The reason we were shooting for grid 8 was because
thermographics indicated that grid 9 was compressed iron ferrite.
Which means you landed us on a goddamn iron plate!
Chick: Blew the tranny... blew the tranny.
Max: [shouting into the microphone] A home run! The Cubs win the
World Series! Ah!
A.J.: [looking at ink blotted pictures] Here's Harry giving me a hard
time. And, uh, this is Harry tellin' me it's not good enough. And,
uh, this is Harry tellin' me I can't marry his daughter. [to
himself] Thanks alot, appreciate it.
Chick: Freddy, you all right?
Freddy Noonan: [Hunching over] Does this look okay to you? Does this
look okay?
Max: [jogging] It's not too bad. It's kinda tingly.
Harry Stamper: I'm gonna give you three seconds to shut this bomb
down, and then I'm gonna make you shoot me.
Rockhound: We're staying, we're going, we're staying, we're going,
make up your mind!
General Montgomery: [shaking hands with Harry] Mr Stamper , I'm
General Montgomery, commander of the Pacific air forces. I've been
sent here by the secretary of defence on direct orders from the
president of the United States. [Harry chuckles] It's a matter of
urgent national security. I need you to get on that chopper right
now, no questions asked.
Harry Stamper: Crazy Willie put you up to this?
General Montgomery: 'Fraid I dont know Crazy Willie, sir. I'm dead
serious about this.
Truman: So you drill, you drop the nuke, and you leave. Now, here's
the key: you're gonna remote-detonate the bomb... before the
asteroid passes this plane,
[Quincy shows a video of the asteroid]
Truman: Zero Barrier. You do that, and the remaining pieces of rock
should be deflected enough to pass right by us. Now, if the bomb
explodes after Zero Barrier...
[the video of the asteroid fragments hitting the Earth is displayed]
Truman: Game's over.
Harry Stamper: You wanna go home? Is that it? You wanna be fired?
A.J.: No, I don't. My crew was doin' the right thing.
Harry Stamper: [Interrupting] Your crew?
A.J.: Yeah.
Harry Stamper: Your crew just blew the whole transmission, A.J.
A.J.: Listen, that NASA computer is just playin' it safe. The machine
you built - the rig - can do it.
Harry Stamper: [Interrupting] Shut up! Just shut up! Shut your mouth!
Those men in that room have zero tolerence for showin' off, hot
doggin', going by your gut instinct or you tryin' to be a hero. You
got that? Say the words, A.J.
A.J.: I got it.
Grace Stamper: [about A.J] Thought you said you couldn't trust him.
Harry Stamper: I thought you said I could.
Rockhound: Why do I do this? Because the money's good, the scenery
changes and they let me use explosives, okay?
Rockhound: [still looking through Rorschach inkblots; to the male
psychologist] This one looks like you... *with* breasts.
Lev Andropov: He used to make the tip of the bomb. The thing that
finds, uh, New York or Washington, you know?
Rockhound: Just wanted to feel the power between my legs, brother.
Walter Clark: [the shuttles are trying to land on the asteroid]
Independence, try to maintain your current heading, you have a
target LZ.
Tucker, Shuttle Independence Co-Pilot: There's too much debris, we
gotta peel off!
Colonel Davis, USAF: Negative! [Rock hits shuttle] We're hit!
Colonel Davis, USAF: [Independence is going down] Good luck, Freedom.
Tucker, Shuttle Independence Co-Pilot: [Windshield starts cracking]
Oh my God, this is it. [Large rock shatters windshield]
Chick: This is turning into a surrealistic nightmare!
Truman: [before shuttles launch] OK gentleman, you're our warriors up
there. God be with you. You're already heroes, just sit back and
enjoy the ride.
Colonel William Sharp: [Just before zero barrier] Somethings not
right, too much time has gone by. We're going back to do it
ourselves.
Chick: Just don't, wait one minute.
Biker Customer: [Seeing Rockhound and the rest of the gang with all
of the women] Who the hell do you think you guys are? You're
hoggin' all the action.
Freddy Noonan: Hey pinhead, why don't you go find your own party.
Biker Customer: Why don't you share the wealth, pal.
Rockhound: [Tosses the biker a 100 dollar bill] Here, you can buy
yourself a neck.
Max: Hey, Mr. Clean.
[the Biker grabs Rockhound by the shirt and Max hits the biker over
the head with a glass bottle and a fight ensues]
Watts: [showing a video] Neil Armstrong, 1969, bouncing on the moon.
He's bouncing because there's less gravity up there than on Earth.
This will be similar to the asteroid. So, watch it. Something gets
launched off that asteroid with enough force, it's gonna keep on
going, right into outer space.
Oscar: [to Bear] What is the deal? Is it just me, or is Watts really
hot?
Bear: [nods] Yeah.
Watts: So we have these new generation suits. With directional
accelerant thrusters. You won't bounce like Neil Armstrong.
[seeing that Bear is not paying attention]
Watts: Bear!
Bear: Yes?
Watts: Do we have a problem?
Bear: No.
Watts: 'Cause I'm trying to describe to you how these DATs keep your
ass on the ground, so that if I were to kick you in the balls, and
you don't know how to work them, what happens to you?
Bear: I float away.
Watts: Yeah.
Rockhound: When do we start training for THAT?
Dan: With the proximity of the asteroid, and no prep time, none of
our primary plans can work.
General Kimsey: Why don't we just send up a hundred and fifty nuclear
warheads and blast that rock apart?
Ronald Quincy: Terrible idea.
General Kimsey: Was I talkin' to you?
Dan: This is Dr. Ronald Quincy from Research. Pretty much the
smartest man on the planet You might wanna listen to him.
A.J.: You know, Harry, there are only, uh, five words, I want to hear
from you right now and those words are: you know A.J., I really
look up to you, you been a hero of mine for sometime, and I'm
really impressed with your work and I'm emotionally closed off...
[pause]
A.J.: That's like - I dunno, that's like eleven words or something.
You know what how bout just: A.J., I'm sorry and I love you?
Harry Stamper: [to NASA] Hey, you guys wouldn't happen to tell us who
actually killed Kennedy, would ya?
Little Guy: If I wasn't a Christian, I'd be throwing your fat,
pinaple eatin' ass through the window!
Grace Stamper: Hi Harry.
Harry: I have repeatedly asked you to call me dad.
Grace Stamper: Sorry Harry.
Dan: Tell me you never let anybody down.
Harry Stamper: I never quit yet...
