 Technical quibble concerning the list of Apollo 13 movie goofs:  Whycome this 

 fascination with the "Dark Side" of the moon.  The moon has NO "dark side."
 It has, however, one "Earth Side" and one "Space Side" (for want of a better
 term).  Continually referring to the "dark side" is inaccurate.  However,
 this MAY BE what the NASA boys call it, which may explain some of the
 problems with our Space Program (for want, again, of a better tem).
