Eh, if movie inspiration is the route you want, I'd pick something less abused.

If I were to do a space dio, chances are it'd be a parody -- campy stuff like Silent Running, The Black Hole; more popular stuff like Apollo 13, Space Cowboys, Moonraker; cult flicks like Event Horizon or even The Rocky Horror Picture Show could be great sources of outer-space ideas, comedic or not.

Recycling those storylines or using them as launching points could put you on a good course for a space dio that'll be a little more unique than "omg shoot the alien" or "wtf that Predator turned Flint into a human throw rug."
