It amused me when, in the film "Armageddon", the Mir was portrayed as an ageing rust-bucket.
Whether or not that is a true representation is debatable. I found it quite hilarious the childish way that the Mir was blown up. It certainly seemed like, "We've not had as successful space station as Mir, so we're gonna blow it up."
Not that I found any of the film factually correct anyway :)
Well, you gotta laugh. Its just a shame so many people seem to be suffering from tunnelvision.
