Uncle Sam/Trivia

Deleted Scene: A short one is included as an Easter egg on the latest DVD release.
Hey, It's That Guy!: A slew of them, but the most major ones are Isaac Hayes as Jed, P.J. Soles (best known as Lynda in the original Halloween) as Madge Cronin, and and Robert Forster (Arthur Petrelli and Max Cherry) as Congressman Cummings.
Hilarious in Hindsight: Timothy Bottoms plays a character who fled the country as a protest of the Vietnam War. Bottoms would later play George W. Bush (who was famously pro-war) on That's My Bush! and the TV movie DC 9/11: Time of Crisis.
Shout-Out: Jed repeats the blind veteran's speech about being trapped under frozen bodies in a foxhole from Maniac Cop 2 almost exactly. The film "shattering" to black is also reference to City of the Living Dead.
