Neither does the Space Shuttle. There's no hallway connecting the mid-deck and flight-deck. There's just a hole in the ceiling/floor.
There's no empty hallways on typical airline jets; you go from the passenger compartments to the door to the flight deck. No hallway.
It never made any sense to have these huge waste-of-space tunnels in space craft.
When you have to carry your atmosphere with you, why create so many empty spaces that you have to then fill with air?
Use that space for something! Put labs there! Crew quarters! Something!
I think "Moon" has been the only other major sci-fi non-sequel I've seen in the theaters in a long while...
I liked D9 and hope it does well.

"The Moon's surface contains helium-3 at concentrations on the order of 0.01 ppm."
"each year three space shuttle missions could bring enough fuel for all human beings across the world." - Chinese Lunar Exploration Program
"In January 2006, the Russian space company RKK Energiya announced that it considers lunar helium-3 a potential economic resource to be mined by 2020,[43] if funding can be found."
All the helium 3 we could ever want is just sitting up on the surface of the Moon.

But you're right. Before we go off to the Moon for a limitless supply of fuel, let's stay here and solve our problems without it first.
Is there a dispute resolution mechanism if I happen to be a Frenchman who's been falsely accused three times (I'm not French, and I haven't been accused of filesharing, I'm just curious).
But have you ever been accused of being French?
If someone accuses you of being French three times, you get to pass unfair laws that no one wants.
