What the speakers say drew on it, marked the same way.

The Lego Batman Movie: 1 line the host's read ×1

  1. craft (craft): Galaxy Quest ⇒ The Lego Batman Movie (the host's read). The Phantom Zone security system gets the Galaxy Quest joke: who would ever build this?
    “It's like the Galaxy Quest joke of like, why would this ever be your security system?”

Connected to

Alan Rickman: 1 line career ×1

  1. career (career): Alan Rickman → Galaxy Quest. Rickman's never give up never surrender moment is a highlight, and a sequel or series was reportedly close before he died.
    “Do you know that they were apparently really close to making a 2nd one before Rickman died?”

Avatar: 1 line theme ×1

  1. theme (theme): Avatar → Galaxy Quest. The human-looking avatars are compared to Galaxy Quest's aliens who look like convention fans.
    “There is a version of this story”
    The Big Picture · The Great ‘Avatar’ Debate with Blank Check’s Griffin Newman and David Sims · 1:07:47 · unknown (0.40 sure it was them)

Pixels: 1 line contrast ×1

  1. contrast (premise inversion): Pixels → Galaxy Quest. Pixels is a reverse Galaxy Quest where aliens attack with our own media.
    “It's like a reverse galaxy quest where the evil aliens are like, we're going to attack you with your media.”

Sam Rockwell: 1 line career ×1

  1. career (career): Sam Rockwell → Galaxy Quest. Rockwell deserved his Oscar for Galaxy Quest rather than Three Billboards; 1999 was a tough year.
    “I wish he'd won for Galaxy Quest.”

The Lego Batman Movie: 1 line craft ×1
