I remember the Skipper's name being mentioned on the radio in an old Gilligan ep.
Rick from Casablanca is Richard Blaine.
"Rambo" is John Rambo (maybe everybody else knew this, but since I refuse to see any of those movies, I was in the dark).

It's political. They're obviously extremely right-wing movies. I heard that the first one's a little better, but I vividly remember all the Reagan-era bullshit surrounding the second one.
Stallone is an ideological chameleon who reflects the mores of the time (like many movie stars). But the whole Rambo thing is a bit more extreme than usual.
I'm allergic to any "we were not allowed to win in Vietnam" diatribe. Tell it to somebody else; I don't want to hear it.
