I learned that futuristic starships have concrete walls and ceiling with exposed industrial girders as well as they stash language labs next to large tanks with valves on them. Also, they have huge complex un-staffed areas for water turbines with clear pipes and no security in their control computers.
Some of those sets reminded me of "Space Mutiny." YES. I thought of that the first time I saw this in the theater. I don't think they did a riff about that, though. |

I don't remember a direct comparison between the two movies, but there was at least one similar riff where they mention the Enterprise has a big basement. Can't remember the exact wording.

Same, in discussions I often call JJ's Enterprise "The Southern Sun." |

I learned about thirty-five minutes in that Forklifts are alive and well in The Future! And not the floating kind one would have imagined. So a potent weapon is still available. That said anti-gravity seems to be reliable enough that transports fly over crowds of people who seem totally unconcerned that tons of machinery are floating maybe ten feet above their heads.

I learned that there are some pretty steep ass canyons in Iowa
I learned that the song "Spock Funk" is pretty darn catchy.
I learned that Scottie can get a uniform asap but Kirk needs to hang out in his rebellious "black" till the end.
I learned that Hollywood is now looking to my age group to cast for character's "parents".

Well to be fair it did look like it was man made and it is 300 years in the future,maybe they found Dilitium crystals deep under Iowa.

Wow...changing the timeline even did that? I think it's more likely that that's where they mined the magical stuff that's allowing them to build Constitution-class heavy cruisers on the ground in Iowa and then get them off the planet in one piece. |
