2	* BoxOfficeBomb: Budget? $100 - $150 million. Box office? ''$103'' million.
3	* CreatorKiller: Wally Pfister, once an accomplished and popular cinematographer, has since been relegated into directing comedic TV shows and shorts such as ''Series/TheTick2016'' thanks to this movie bombing. It didn't help that his regular collaborator Creator/ChristopherNolan, who brought in Hoyte van Hoytema to replace Pfister on ''Film/{{Interstellar}}'' while Pfister worked on this film, chose to stick with Hoytema on ''Film/{{Dunkirk}}'' and future projects.
4	* FakeAmerican: Irish actor Creator/CillianMurphy plays an American character.
5	* PlayingAgainstType: Creator/JohnnyDepp is known for playing [[LargeHam hammish]] and [[CloudCuckoolander eccentric]] characters, especially in the last decade. In here, he's assuming one of his most subdued and realistic roles to date. ''Very'' subdued.
6	* WhatCouldHaveBeen:
7	** Creator/ChristianBale, Creator/JudeLaw, Creator/JamesMcAvoy and Creator/TobeyMaguire were considered for the lead role.
8	** Creator/TomHardy and Creator/EwanMcGregor turned down the role of Max due to scheduling conflicts.
9	** Creator/NoomiRapace was an early choice for the role of Evelyn. The final choices were Creator/EmilyBlunt, Creator/RebeccaHall, Creator/RooneyMara (sister of Creator/KateMara who plays Bree) and Creator/KateWinslet.
10	** Creator/AlisonBrie auditioned for the role of Bree, before Kate Mara was cast.
11	** Creator/ChristophWaltz was offered a supporting role.

14	* DevelopmentHell: It took seven years for the game to get from initial announcement to a 1.0 release. Now that George has returned to full-time game development, the pace of development has picked up significantly.
15	* DummiedOut:
16	** A number of stations and ships appear in the game's resources that are unused. Since then, [[GameMod modders]] have taken to including them.
17	** The game's code also means that any item above Level XII will never be available for sale. At least until the game itself is expanded beyond the Heretic system.
18	* RunningTheAsylum: Official extensions are both considered canon and made by the community.
19	* WhatCouldHaveBeen: The [[ConceptArtGallery concept art]] on the official site depicts ink drawings of ships take look startlingly similar to the ones in game. However, this is played straight with several ships which have been remodeled multiple times or even outright replaced (or never made it into the game in the first place).
