Those popcorn and drink uniforms! I’ve been cutting down on my mindless collecting, but I’d totally eat and drink out of those for a month if I could get one.

I only saw the first one in theater, and I was so damn young, all I really remember of the experience is some of the exterior shots. But, considering how young I was, that's still a telling thing about how well it was done.

Those exterior shots really stuck with me as well. I can't imagine growing up with blurry spaceship models viewed on a CRT tv to the giant, sweeping, detailed close up and wide shots we get in that opening shuttle scene. Now people laugh about how long it goes on for but I have to imagine for a lot of fans it was still not long enough!

I know! I hate that I want them...

That's a lot of rainbow, especially considering space has no atmosphere - somewhat famously, I might add. An interesting design choice
