Invasion of the Body Snatchers, the Donald Sutherland/Jeff Goldblum one, was also 78. Alien would also come out in 79. Video consoles were being billed as super advanced and futuristic. I’m sure this came from that. What’s interesting is that 8 years later, we got Arkanoid, a breakout game actually set in space.

No. It’s not cheese damn it! It’s chemically diverse from cheese… Because I looked at the lab results that’s how! Cheese doesn’t move on it’s own!)” - also probably Cave Johnson
