Armageddon was released on Liv Tyler's (Grace Stamper) 21st birthday.
The character Freddy Noonan appears in, or is referenced in many scenes yet is more or less an afterthought. This is the same name as Amelia Earhart's navigator, who was involved in one of the most famous real life aerial mysteries, but is also a largely forgotten person.
At the beginning of the movie, the dog Reggie, is attacking the vendor's blow-up doll of Godzilla. This is probably due to the fact that the movies Godzilla and Armageddon came out during the summer of 1998, and were in direct competition with each other.
Just a point of interest, Rockhound and the Russian cosmonaut are played by Steve Buscemi and Peter Stormare. The played a duo in crime in Fargo (1996).
In the scene when Bruce Willis is in the Armadillo and says goodbye to Liv Tyler, he actually had a picture of his real daughter in front of him, which helped him to cry.
In the medical testing scene, Max asks the doctor if he's ever seen Pulp Fiction (1994), a movie featuring both Steve Buscemi (Rockhound) in a cameo at the restaurant, and Bruce Willis (Harry S. Stamper).
When the scientist says to the other man, "We're moving the Hubble," the long-haired man whom he is talking to is Michael Bay, the director of Armageddon.
