Here's what happened when Ben Affleck asked 'Armageddon' director Michael Bay about a giant plot hole

Michael Bay's 1998 opus "Armageddon," about a team of drillers who fly to an asteroid to destroy it before it crashes into Earth, is a bad movie. It is so bad that Michael Bay apologized for it (before apologizing for apologizing). It is so bad that Ben Affleck, who stars in the movie, told Bay that the movie made no sense while they were filming the movie. Bay did not care.

In a clip from the DVD commentary track going viral on Twitter, Affleck recalls that he asked Bay, "Why is it easier to train oil drillers to become astronauts than to train astronauts to become oil drillers?"
