* The Earth when they mistake it for the moon is brightly lit and stands out clearly in the sky.
* When the moon is destroyed, a bit of it can still be seen hanging on a string.

* HarsherInHindsight: "[[DigitalPiracyIsEvil Video Pirates]]" has them celebrate finding a massive haul of Betamax and VHS tapes, while leaving the laserdiscs behind, citing that you couldn't record on them and compatibility issues with their hardware.

It's more a case of 'Harsher' since they're celebrating what, nowadays, is ancient junk.


* HilariousInHindsight: "[[DigitalPiracyIsEvil Video Pirates]]", especially the comment by one pirate concerning laserdiscs: "What good are they? You can't record on 'em. They're not compatible with my system!" Those comments were indicative of the general feeling at that time toward laserdiscs. For those people not familiar with them, they were vinyl record album-sized, rather heavy, had to be flipped over in the middle of the movie, and were the predecessor of [=DVDs=] and Blu-Ray discs.

** Mixed with ValuesResonance - the Dial-a-Date in the Rosanna Arquette and Steve Gutenberg sketch. Having that much intimate details about your blind date was outrageous in the 1980's, but when it's common today to run a Google search and get even ''more'' embarrassing dirt on a potential date, it's almost quaint.
