[QUOTE]Originally posted by Triton: [QB] Veers have you been able to see the bonus material of the new DVD? [i]The Right Stuff[/i] is one of my favorite films. It was the first time that I can remember seeing the NASA footage of the launch failures and the Mercury missions. My father was sick to death of the whole thing when the movie came out. I think it was just bad timing for the movie in 1982 and its too bad that this film and [i]Blade Runner[/i] caused the bankruptcy of the Ladd Company. Funny how most of the box office hits of 1982 have been forgotten and both of the previously mentioned films are classics. I wonder what other fascinating films Alan Ladd Jr. was going to green light that we never got to see. Sol System are you trying to get my dander up? :D Don't you remember the AA safety yellow and black Gee Bee R2 at the beginning of the film that was shot down by the Tommy gun wielding hood during the car chase, the Curtis Jenny biplane, the Ford tri-motor, the model of the Hughes Hercules (spruce goose), the autogyro, and the white and black Gee Bee R2 at the end? That makes six airplanes, plus the Luxembourg Zeppelin, which is an airship not an airplane. Did you not like the movie and didn't pay attention? [/QB][/QUOTE]
