And if I can’t cool that stage down to say, 50 or 55 degrees, we’re never going to get this thing shot because people are going to be sweating themselves to death!’ And so he said, ‘Let’s see how it goes the first couple of days.’ Well, the makeup guy must have gone through 400 boxes of Kleenex the first day! Every time we were ready to roll we had to quit because everybody wore these plastic masks. Well, people would sweat, they would frost up, and it was just impossible the first couple of days. I started shooting on Wednesday, and on Friday afternoon Earl called me and said, ‘the second air conditioner is on its way,’ so we hooked it up Friday night and to my recollection it was right between 50 and 55 degrees by Monday morning. And what we did is we told the whole crew, ‘wear your parkas, crew,’ so the entire crew were wearing parkas and things that at 50 degrees would keep them comfortable and made the filming immensely easier to commence and to keep going. When you’ve got a 2-hour movie and you’ve got 24 days to do it, you’ve got to do six or seven pages a day, six or seven pages a day is almost an episodic schedule and you can’t shut down every two minutes because you’ve got perspiration running down people’s noses.		\| context = [[Alan J.

We all had to wear masks with regulators, because you did not want to inhale that plastic. ~~And some of us wore full masks because it was easier for us to keep the snow out of our eyes as well~~. ~~So the entire crew was running around with parkas and masks on, as is the cast, and I’d yell across to Enzo [Martinelli~~]~~, ‘mumblemumblemumble!’ and he’d go, ‘Take the mask off and tell me what you want!’~~ I would say that those were the most difficult two items to overcome."<ref>{{~~cite_web~~\|url=http://www.geocities.ws/sjpaxton/ajl.html\|title=Battlestar Zone interview with Alan J.

	* It seems likely that the episode "[[Bastille Day]]" in the Re-Imagined Series was partially inspired by elements of this episode. In both episodes, a group of criminals is conscripted from a prison ship to work on the icy surface of a hostile planet. A notable difference between the two episodes lies in how the workers were chosen. While the workers in "[[Bastille Day]]" are chosen in part for their expendability, the conscripts in "The Gun on Ice Planet Zero" are chosen for their expertise in harsh environments and in demolition work.		* It seems likely that the episode "[[Bastille Day]]" in the Re-Imagined Series was partially inspired by elements of this episode.
