- TriviaThe opening scene music is "Utopia" by Todd Rundgren, who is Liv Tyler's step-father. She was born "Liv Rundgren". In fact, there are no less than four Todd Rundgren tracks on the soundtrack, and receives a thanks in the credits.
- GoofsThe station seems to have an artificial gravity that can be turned on and off at will. The habitat rings however also rotates, creating an artificial gravity all on their own. The resulting gravity would have the inhabitants walk partly on the edge windows as that would be the real direction of the resulting artificial gravity.

Featured review
Contrastive to every other review here...
I went into this not wanting to watch it - and was left a little perplexed by the dislike for this film; as was my other half. I think part of it could be cultural and us Brits having a different sense of humour to Americans/Canadians (which is where this film has thus far been released).
Frankly, I found this a lot more entertaining than comedies like 'Bad Neighbors', 'This is the End', 'Pineapple Express', 'Hangover'... or basically anything with Seth Rogen, Jonah Hill or Michael Cera - these sort of films generally seem to unimpress me and make the rare list of things I end up turning off. I'm not saying they are terrible films... I'm just saying that *I* think they are terrible utter rubbish 'movies' (or rather, polished turds) that should have never been made. Again; probably my different sense of humour, contrastive to a lot of reviewers here who have echoed similar thoughts about Space Station 76.
Now, Space Station 76 isn't paced to have you laughing at every second - and it is deliberately slow as a film; rather, it's a window into daily life in space coupled with awkward discourse and events amongst the small community on the ship. It's evident this is going to end up as more of a cult movie: it deserves to be.
The sets are wonderfully put together and create a consistent sense of galactic immersion, the acting is brilliant, the cast is filled with a lot of familiar faces from great films and the comedy delivers well. Yes, it might not all be inoffensive - but it's pretty brilliant.
This is a great movie the way it is. Things do get a little dry at either end of the film but it's forgivable.
