"GET OFF MY PLANE!" Fun Fact: Gary Oldman's performance earned him the nickname "Scary Gary" during production. However, he did not stay in character between the scenes. Wolfgang Petersen called the filming experience "Air Force Fun" because of how comedic and genial Gary Oldman and Harrison Ford would be off-screen. He also said that Gary Oldman would suddenly return to the menacing film persona instantly. Harrison Ford has since named Gary Oldman as his favorite on-screen nemesis. Also, Harrison Ford and Gary Oldman are actually hitting each other during their fight scenes.

The way they do it in military planes ordinarily is you're attached to a wire, which pulls the chute for you when you jump out. So perhaps for Cassie they could have rigged up something similar and she wouldn't need to be conscious to pull her own chute. I wonder if she'd rather zip line between two planes or jump out of one with a parachute, though. I have gone skydiving and it's a lot of fun. I did an accelerated freefall course and got my A license. Skydiving is actually really, really safe. It's only once a skydiver moves up in the skills and experience and starts to get cocky that accidents happen. Usually doing crazy stunts like wingsuits and water landings, that's when people actually get killed. I have no desire to do that kind of stuff, but I'm happy to do ordinary jumps a few times in a day every now and again, get some freefall minutes, and fly a nice big canopy.

This brings back so many memories. And one I had to share. I went to see this movie in theaters with my VERY pregnant sister and her, then fiance (now ex-husband). My sister always had a small crush on Harrison Ford, but that's not the point of this story. Keep in mind, this was a time before everyone had cell phones. It was after midnight by the time I dropped them off at their place, and I went home myself. Before I could get home, her water broke, she couldn't call me to get them, so she called our older brother to pick them up to take to the hospital (they didn't have a car). So my brother picked them up to take them to the hospital. I go home to find a message on my answering machine telling me what happened. To meet at the hospital. My niece, now 25, was born that morning on July 29, 1997. My sister jokes that the movie (and Harrison Ford)and her anxiety during the movie induced labour. After watching your own anxiety and reaction, I thought you'd like this little memory of mine

I have a fun story about Liesel Matthews(Alice). Liesel Matthews was born Liesel Pritzker. In the early 2000s, I worked for a technology consulting firm, and one of our clients was Liesel's mother, Irene. I had to go to Irene's house one day to help her with some computer problems and, while I was working at her mom's desk, Liesel came out of her room and sat down on the couch near the desk. She then got up to go make herself some breakfast (IIRC she was going to make an omelette). I introduced myself and she asked me if I would like her to make me something while she was in the kitchen. I said "no, thank you". When I got home that day, I told my wife that I should have said 'yes'. Then I could always tell people that a movie star made me breakfast once.

Gary Oldman is a brilliant actor, and a chameleon. He looks different in every movie he is in. Among his many amazing roles are Beethoven in "Immortal Beloved", Detective/Commissioner Gorden in the "Dark Knight" Trilogy (Christopher Nolan Batman movies), Winston Churchill in "Darkest Hour", Emannuel Zorg in "The Fifth Element", George Smiley in "Tinker, Taylor, Soldier, Spy" and, of course, Sirius Black in the "Harry Potter" movies. And that only scratches the surface. I also like Harrison Ford in this film. It serves as a sort-of third Jack Ryan movie. You talk about how you loved The West Wing (I do too). I strongly reccomend the movie "The American President" and the TV series "The Newsroom" (same writer/creator of the West Wing) Both are amazing.

When it comes to fictional Presidents, mine is David Palmer as played by Dennis Haysbert in the first three seasons of 24 and briefly in seasons 4 and 5. As for Air Force One, it is a great movie. My favorite thing about this movie, though, is the score composed by the late and legendary Jerry Goldsmith. He was one of the best film composers and I have been watching movies he composed the scores for as far back as I can remember. Makes me want to listen to the Air Force One score right now. And speaking of President Bartlett from The West Wing, if you have never seen it, watch the 1983 film The Dead Zone, based upon the book by Stephen King. The same actor, Martin Sheen, plays Gregory Stillson, who is running for president, but he is a very bad person, downright evil.

I'm not saying he's a great character, just that the hatred that he evokes (like in Cassie) sticks with you throughout the movie. And picking on Xander is just an inside joke with my wife. Even though it's derivative, I like this one better than Die Hard. The love and respect one has for the Marshall family is so visceral - and I'm a veteran, so this movie punches a lot of pride buttons for me. Also, I just don't like Bruce Willis all that much.

Just to let you know Cassie.. Plane to Plane transfer or rescue is a REAL thing. The actual practice it in the military, particularly special operations. It is a real thing they try when a hijacking scenario when an airborne carrier (with high importance personnel) cannot land, but maintain flight. So that isn't against physics, they can actually do that.

I can't say actual aircraft to aircraft personnel transfer has never occurred, but in my time in Air Force Spec Ops I never heard of it actually being performed. You are right, there used to be a mission for surface to air recovery of personnel (Fulton Recovery System), but it was disabled as of the early 90's, and no longer exists on any active duty aircraft as far as I am aware. I did fly a few birds that had the nose and the infrastructure from 91-96, but the "moving parts" had all been removed.

I work at the airport that was used as Ramstein Air Base. They had a Kallitta 747 mocked up as Air Force One they used for the scene where the plane was fast taxiing through the base. They placed a C141 at the end of a long stretch and lined it with helicopters. They would back the 74 up to the tower and throttle up and race the plane down the corridor of helicopters toward the 141. They did this so much that they had overheated the brakes and every emergency valve on every tire popped off and all tired deflated. I had never seen a 747 with every single tire flattened. The scene with the F15s was also amazing. They shook the ground as they flew over with afterburners on. I got my picture taken with the Russian Hind D attack helicopter that was in this movie as well. The prison scene was filmed at Mansfield penitentiary. Same place they filmed Shawshank Redemption.
