Yeah, I guess as they were going along they realized they could combine “Platoon” and “Apocalypse Now” and went for the family tie-in.

Wouldn’t surprise me if it passed over most of the audience’s heads. I was in the theater and I got it right off because I had actually seen “Wall Street” - Don’t think I’ve seen all of “Platoon”; not sure. I do remember Lt. Frank Drebbin and his date Priscilla coming out of “Platoon” laughing in “Naked Gun”.
