* Did the spacecraft look correct inside and out? Did they have the right amount of room inside?<br /><br />* I know Jim Lovell claimed that much of the drama displayed in the movie was fictional in that there were no fights in the LM. Any other plot inaccuracies?<br /><br />* Do people feel the movements of objects and actors replicated real microgravity? I felt there was too many high velocity objects in the cabin. This might have been due to the amount of time that the Vomit Comet can maintian such an evironment. CGI was probably too expensive, especially when you want to reproduce actors.<br /><br />* How was the video of an Apollo commander walking on the moon done? That wasn't real film from the moon was it? It also could not have been Lovell imagining himself on the moon as the astronaut shown had the red stripe that was added with Apollo 15.<br /><br />* How much of the video and audio was from period footage? I figure anything to do with Walter Chronkite would have to be original. No one else except him could reproduce that voice. Even he might not be able to after 25 years. He sure looked different that he would have when the movie ended.<br /><br />* At the end of the movie, we hear a voice talking about what happened after Apollo 13 splashed down. Was that Lovell's voice? Or Tom Hank's? <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <hr style="margin-top:0.5em;margin-bottom:0.5em" />Will Pittenger<hr style="margin-top:0.5em;margin-bottom:0.5em" />Add this user box to your Wikipedia User Page to show your support for the SDC forums: <div style="margin-left:1em">{{User:Will Pittenger/User Boxes/Space.com Account}}</div> </div>
