Anecdotes
The double rows of large buttons on the bridge consoles are ice cube trays illuminated from beneath.

Citations
Doolittle: [Doolittle convinces the bomb not to explode]
Doolittle: [1:12:12] Hello, Bomb? Are you with me?
Bomb #20: Of course.
Doolittle: Are you willing to entertain a few concepts?
Bomb #20: I am always receptive to suggestions.
Doolittle: Fine. Think about this then. How do you know you exist?
Bomb #20: Well, of course I exist.
Doolittle: But how do you know you exist?
Bomb #20: It is intuitively obvious.
Doolittle: Intuition is no proof. What concrete evidence do you have that you exist?
Bomb #20: Hmmmm... well... I think, therefore I am.
Doolittle: That's good. That's very good. But how do you know
Doolittle: that anything else exists?
Bomb #20: My sensory apparatus reveals it to me. This is fun.

In Space, No One Can Hear You Yawn...

Director John Carpenter's DARK STAR takes deep space exploration in a whole new direction. The story by Carpenter and Dan O'Bannon is slyly hysterical, while still maintaining a sense of ultimate doom.

A crew on a 20-year mission to destroy rogue planets finds that boredom has pretty much driven them nuts. They're sick of space, sick of each other, and have all turned into apathetic numbskulls.

Can the threat of their own annihilation shake them from their doldrums?

The monotonous computer voice, talking bombs, and beachball alien are all brilliant touches.

Carpenter and O'Bannon have created the perfect antidote to the action-packed, modern day space opera...
