Line 25:
* [[The Chosen One]]: Ryder.
* [[Cool Starship]]: <s>The ''Galactica''</s> The Southern Sun.
* [[Covers Always Lie]]: Sort of. ''[https://web.archive.org/web/20130917203738/http://www.agonybooth.com/recaps/Space_Mutiny_1988.aspx The Agony Booth]'' tells us that the VHS packaging claims the film features "''breathtaking special effects from the team that brought you [[Star Wars]]''." This is ''technically'' true, in the sense that the team that worked on ''[[Star Wars]]'' went on to do SFX for the original ''[[Battlestar Galactica (1978 TV series)|Battlestar Galactica]]'' series, [[Stock Footage]] from which was used for ''[[Space Mutiny]]''. The rest of the film's special effects, [[Special Effects Failure|on the other hand]]...
* [[Creator Backlash]]: The credited director, David Winters (whose other major contribution to the world of cinema was choreographing the dance routines in ''[[The Star Wars Holiday Special]]'') actually only directed a small portion of it, after which he quit due to family troubles. He wanted his credit changed to [[Alan Smithee]], but found out the hard way that the Director's Guild doesn't really care about the credits on low-budget exploitation films.
** For an encore, Neal Sundstrom, the director who was ''actually'' responsible for the bulk of the film, wasn't very happy with the finished product either, and elected to have a "co-director" title which was buried in the end credits.
