I’m assuming this is exactly what rig work is like. Thinking about you oil baws

Yep. That's exactly why the government figured it would be easier to train oil patch baws to be astronauts than it would be to to train astronauts to work a drill.

Ben Affleck: "Why is it easier to train oil drillers to become astronauts than it was to train astronauts to become oil drillers?"
Michael Bay: "shut the frick up"

Roger Ebert had the greatest opening line for a movie review in regards to Armageddon:
"Here it is at last, the first 150-minute trailer."

“What are you doing with a gun in space except for the 30mm Gatlings strapped on the Rovers.”

Stop posting and watch the movie. You don't want to miss a thing.

I can only pray that a cure for space dementia has been found

Billy Bob Thornton is in a wheelchair for most of the movie with no explanation as to why and then later is walking around with no problem.
WHY?
WHY?

I think it would be.
These guys were just passengers.
Astronauts would have to learn to operate all the equipment the oil drillers use.

Correct. People like to forget the folks actually piloting the ship were trained astronauts.
The only issue I have is that their lives technically become more important if the idea is to actually make it back to Earth

The editing in this movie is atrocious.
But I won't lie. I still enjoy the movie for some reason.

Probably the hottest she's looked in a movie unless you are into high elves.

In all my years of watching films, I've never seen such a heroic effort from a wonderful cast (outside the romantic leads) - trying to save such a terrible film from its terrible director and screenwriters. They did it so gleefully, too, like they knew it wouldn't make a difference, but dammit, they were all professionals.
On the other hand, Titanic is not that far off in second place.

There's a lot of great lines from Buschemi.

I love the psych test montage is this movie.

Outside of Affleck and Tyler - everybody brought their A-game.
Big Michael, Stormare, Patton (underrated actor), Billy Bob - just outside the romantic leads, everybody said, "frick it - this movie is terrible, but it ain't going to be terrible because of me."

Fixed it for you, this is much more believable.
I totally missed the Billy Bob wheelchair thing haha. Also, why do you need a mini gun on a rover?
