The girl in the poster is none other than Jeri Ryan. Jeri went on to be 7 of 9, the rogue Borg drone. If you don't remember her in the skin tight silver outfit from Voyager, maybe you saw her in "Dracula 2000". She was the reporter that got bitten while her camera guy filmed her.

Answer: full suit of armor

That really was a wacky idea. Who could pull off a one man Julius Caesar? But you gotta admire the guy's ambition. He sat there and detailed how he could play every character except Calpurnia. When Mark asked him "Won't you have to stab yourself in the back?" if he played both Brutus and Julius Caesar, Shatner's response was "I've done it before."

The guys have their own lingo. TRU is their code for Toys 'R Us. This is the scene where we found out about Mark's ex-girlfriend, the munchkin. He's not very fond of her, but his reason for staying in contact with her was "a guy's gotta stay in practice".

The scene where Schweiger says that he spent his life savings to join Great Encounters was inspired by Robert having to listen to the real life Schweiger moaning about his love life every day at work.

I need to go on a second date, Bob!"
