Vast Engineering Conspiracy hits Hollywood!

The character is Mitch Wilkinson. Funny, because I took several history classes from LTC Wilkinson while I was there. I heard he was on sabbatical. I guess he's up to no good. Hopefully, Nic Cage stopped his evil plan and saved the world.

Wasn't ever much of a fan of Nic's. I liked "8mm". "Snake Eyes" sucked. "Con Air" was okay.

But "Raising Arizona" is a classic!

Let's not forget the balls-on accurate flick about Apache pilots... "Firebirds".

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Now I will have to see it.

I'm not sure how I feel, but meeting all the requirements to be a movie villian is kinda neat now. Col. Wilkinsons classes didn't seem that harmful, maybe I missed the hidden messages?

Also the best part about "Firebirds is not so much how they depict Apache pilots so much as how they depict Kiowa pilots, it seems all Kiowa pilots are mildly attractive women and wear weird 80's outfits in their off time.

I saw that movie with another VMI man and we both cheered when they mentioned that the villain was a VMI grad.

Rah Virginia Mil!

Oh, I'm definitely flattered. Just a shame I won't be able to catch the film in a public place and obnoxiously point out to all of those "lesser folk" (and that includes you engineering majors) that only the Institute's history department could produce true dastardliness. For some real fun, they should have made Cage's character a Citadel grad, but then they would have to write a scene with Harris stealing Cage's jeep.
