Nigella Lawson’s father Nigel Lawson was Margaret Thatchers ‘Chancellor of the Exchequer’ (effectively Britain’s Treasurer).
It was originally all about Jiving and Jukeboxes. They added the extra letter in the mid-90's after Jamiroquai hit the scene.
I’d say Hangman is 50% Maverick (as far as his perceived reliability goes) and 50% Iceman (bit of a bully but comes good in the end - also looks just like him)
Everyone keeps going on about the Star Wars connection but it’s deeper than that. It’s really an homage to the classic 1964 WW2 adventure ‘633 Squadron’ which is one of the movies that - along with ‘The Dambusters’ - provided the inspiration for George Lucas’ climactic Death Star attack mission.

And there are other action movies that break new ground. Remember when John Wick was a fresh take on action cinema? Remember when Iron Man breathed new life into the superhero genre and kickstarted an absolute behemoth that’s dominating cinema to this day? In the timeframe of the last 5 Bond films we’ve had action…
Australia’s Triple J* did it with NWA decades ago and it wasn’t a timid family-friendly publicity stunt neither.

Well over a 60 year timeframe they’ve provided work for tens of thousands of cast and crew members, extras and other ancillary positions, boosted tourism in a variety of locations across the globe and have never lost money, so why would they stop?
It depends which Natalya Simonova you are talking about.

And if that wasn’t enough, just to really make sure the message gets through we get an instrumental piano cover of Lana Del Rey’s ‘Video Games’ to play us out....
I used to be an author of NPC dialogue but then I took an arrow to the knee

Wait. Ana Matronic was in that suit? Jeez. I know it’s been a long time since the Scissor Sisters last had a hit but I didn’t think she was that hard up for cash.
