| Apollo 10½: A Space Age Childhood / int_3618ebb9 | comment |
The '60s: The narrator talks about how exciting it was to grow up in Houston in the 60s. The film shown does have the aesthetics of the time period (hair, fashion, technology, the interior of the boys house, and discussions of hippies). | |

Conspiracy Theorist | |
| Apollo 10½: A Space Age Childhood / int_39ed1c8a | comment |
Conspiracy Theorist: One of Stanley's grandmothers, who tells tales that JFK is still alive (but comatose) overseas, and that overpopulation in the '70s will cause massive food shortages. | |

Corporal Punishment: One of the anecdotes told by adult Stanley: It was common in the '60s to get spankings as punishment, even in school. | |

Slice of Life | |
| Apollo 10½: A Space Age Childhood / int_7e081ea0 | comment |
Slice of Life: While the film is marketed as the story of a boy who goes to the moon, that’s just a small part of the movie. The bill of the film is more about Stan narrating his life in Late-1960s Houston with his family and the highs and lows of growing up in that period as the world awaited the moon landing. | |

Vomit Indiscretion Shot | |
| Apollo 10½: A Space Age Childhood / int_94e4b975 | comment |
Vomit Indiscretion Shot: The first time Stanley goes in the centrifuge, he upchucks and it not only shows it, it freeze frames on the moment. | |

Rotoscoping | |
| Apollo 10½: A Space Age Childhood / int_ac5fa94 | comment |
Rotoscoping: The film uses a style of animating over live-action footage similar to previous Linklater projects such as A Scanner Darkly and Waking Life. | |

Irony | |
| Apollo 10½: A Space Age Childhood / int_c335b9ec | comment |
Irony: Stanley's dad is concerned that Stanley missed the historic event of astronauts walking on the moon because he was sleepy, not realizing that Stanley's already walked on the moon himself. | |

Lighter and Softer | |
| Apollo 10½: A Space Age Childhood / int_ce6555f0 | comment |
Lighter and Softer: Easily the most tame of all of Linklater's rotoscoped projects. While Waking Life was a philosophical look at life and meaning with language sprinkled in and A Scanner Darkly being a Sci-fi Psychological Drug film, this is just a light coming of age film and the only one of his to not gather an R rating. | |
