* WhatDoYouMeanItsForKids: The show was steeped in Cold War politics, with the team frequently dealing with implicitly Eastern European agents who sought to commit mass murder by destroying crops, unleashing oxygen-draining aliens, or by massacring the World's Fair.

"It's" is a contraction of "it is" or "it has"; it is not interchangeable with "its", a possessive determiner.



* AdaptationDisplacement: Though popular at the time of it's release, the movie has largely fallen out of public awareness - most people are more aware of the [[FantasticVoyagePlot trope it created]] than the movie that spawned it. The novel, on the other hand, has never gone out of print, though the cynical would argue that this is due to Asimov's fame, rather than how good a job he did.

* FairForItsDay: Guru, despite his many stereotypical attributes, was a competent and valued member of the team, and respected by everyone except for Busby (who was supposed to be annoying). Even the character's humorous scenes revolved around him being a DeadpanSnarker rather than a FunnyForeigner.

* NightmareFuel: The whole movie has a strange, unnerving, psychedelic feel. The initial scenes in the submarine are also extremely claustrophobic, which explains Michaels's panic attack.

* EnsembleDarkhorse: Edmond O'Brien as Carter and William Redfield as Bill Owens. Their performances completed prevented their characters from being indistinguishable from similar characters of the era, which unfortunately cannot be said for the rest of the cast and their characters.

** Cora is attacked by antibodies in the inner ear, which causes her to scream bloody murder. She then complains of being strangled and unable to breathe. As if the claustrophobic feel of the movie wasn't enough.
