@avclub-1c94d7ee62364576f2f61996170fe903:disqus Hey! I resemble that remark.

Roddenberry didn't conceive Star Trek as "Wagon Train in space." That was just the pitch he used to get CBS to buy it.

Technical nerd question: are the eliminated contestants on the jury allowed to compare notes and discuss what they've heard & for whom they'd vote while they chill together at the Loser's Ranch pool before the final Tribal? That could really change strategy.

@avclub-e6990f5a3eb5738fbb28fd8a53506f6f:disqus The HoJo's on the space station in 2001 wasn't a comment on its being "revolutionary". It was a nod to the chain's ubiquity. If 2001 were made today they would include a Starbuck's on the space station.

The opening crawl was meant to echo the beginning of Blade Runner. Most of the words in white with certain ones in red, the Vangelis-like music, the tone of the text.

Agreed. Red Earth has a lot of airships in addition to planes because since there was never a Hindenburg disaster over there, airship use never fell out of favor.

During the pandemonium after all hell breaks loose, Acker's character has a brief throw-away line about how the weed Kranz's character was smoking had interfered with/disabled Whitford and Jenkins's chemical manipulations.

I thought the Buckner family was a reference to the horror motif of the cannibalistic sociopathic family used in movies like The Hills Have Eyes (1977) and The Texas Chain Saw Massacre (1974). Also The X-Files season four episode two Home.

Oh. Okay. Now I get it.

According to season 3 episode 5 Amber 31422, the people trapped in amber are not only alive, but remain conscious the entire time they're frozen in the stuff.
