    Not only did Lucas endorse this movie, he let them use ILM (the VFX studio he founded) to do the VFX for it which is why the production value is so high. His only condition was that they couldn’t sell any products related to the film, hence the merchandising gag.

    Rambo is an awesome movie. The first one is not only an action movie, but explores PTSD, survivor's guilt, and how America treated returning Vietnam vets, among other things. It is a HEARTBREAKING film. The other Rambo movies pretty much go all-in on the action movie trope, but Rambo (actually called "First Blood") is a masterpiece. You should ABSOLUTELY watch it.

      Rambo III was about the Soviet Invasion of Afghanistan.
      Rambo (2008) was about the Myanmar/Burmese conflict that was going on during the mid 2000's.

    The scene with Pizza the Hut could only be filmed once. The interior of the costume was practically an oven. Think about it, that was real melted cheese, sauce, bread and pepperoni. The actor had to be pulled out due to heat exhaustion (if not heat stroke). Afterwards, the actor received medical advice not to get in the costume again and then he refused to do so once he was back on set. No other actors would get in the costume after they saw what happened to the original actor, so they had to use what film they managed to get on the first and only recording.
