YMMV / The Astronaut Farmer

• Hilarious in Hindsight:
  • SpaceX was founded four whole years before the movie even came out, and they haven't had nearly as much trouble with the government.
  • In Armageddon (1998), Billy Bob Thornton played Dan Truman, the head of Mission Control at NASA who was unable to go into space due to a Career-Ending Injury and wishes he could be up there with Harry (Bruce Willis) to help take out the asteroid. Come 9 years later and it's now Willis at Mission Control and Billy Bob ascending into the heavens.
