Comment Impressive attention to detail (Score 2) 52
What I really liked about the show was the subtle attention to detail. In the interior shots of the research ship, every monitor looks like it's a CRT, because that is the display technology that we had in 1979. The ship was supposedly launched before the Nostromo encountered LV-426. However, the displays in the Prodigy compound were flat panel or holographic. You couldn't buy a CRT monitor today even if you wanted one, at least one that worked well enough to be on camera. At least they made it LOOK like they were CRTs. Any other movie probably wouldn't have bothered.
