Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThe catering for this movie comprised entirely of soup; no solids were allowed whatsoever. In an interview with Sight & Sound in 2012, Lambert himself stated that the reason for this was that at the time he was a member of a radical nutritional cult, and his contract for agreeing to sign on included a clause stating that the catering for the entire cast and crew constitute only soup.
- GoofsAt approximately 12:26 into the film when Susan is speaking to Peter Teller at the end of the video transmission the screen shows the webcam feed is actually using Hauppage WinTV and returns to the Windows desktop (showing many other bespoke applications designed for the film). The version of Windows installed is Windows 98 and you can see the free trial for AOL on the desktop.

Featured review
You can survive in the vacuum of space for a short while
Sci-Fi fans love to think they are so smart sometimes. Everyone keeps bashing this movie for the scene where the main character survives in space without a spacesuit. To be honest, I have not seen the movie, so I do not know how long he spends in space, however I registered on IMDb just to point out that it may actually be possible to survive in the vacuum of space for a short time. See The Straight Dope for more details on that: http://www.straightdope.com/classics/a3_147.html. Moreover, having a character survive a short time in space without a suit is not an unusual plot device. It was done in 2001: A Space Odyssey and also Event Horizon, and probably others. The concept is certainly not any more outrageous than diving through a plate glass window without suffering massive lacerations and not any more outrageous than a huge number of other physics-ignoring-action that Hollywood puts into movies every single day.
