Apparently Tom Hanks’s quote from Apollo 13 — “Houston, we have a problem” — is one of these nominated to be the top 100 movie quotes of all time.
I hope it’s not chosen for one simple reason. Jim Lovell, the astronaut played by Hanks, didn’t say “Houston, we have a problem.” Picky as it is, what he said (quite clearly) was “Houston, we’ve had a problem.”
