Neat Cult Reference or Just a Coincidence? Share on Facebook Share on Twitter Update ID

The Wing Commander series has a long history of drawing on familiar people and places when it needs to create new names. Some can be pretty unique one-off jokes, references or combinations of things, so when we see something in external media that happens to overlap with WC, it always gives us pause! The manual to Wing Commander Academy mentions Gorath as the site of a major Crossbow action. LOAF recently saw that that's also a the name of a famous 1962 Japanese sci-fi film!

Oooooooh!
