"Things that are sticky here are not sticky in space. That's interesting. How come?"

I meant meant to say "not always" sticky, and I don't remember why. I'll have to research that.

As for BTILC, I love that movie!

My guess is that many/most sticky materials will outgas/dry quickly in vacuum. Aside from Kapton tape -- that stuff stays sticky no matter what...
