Two of the creators in Dark Star (Dan O'Bannon and Ron Cobb) worked on Star Wars, Alien, others. Also George Lucas was of course aware of Dark Star. So it's a bit different from mere predating/anticipating. (Though you are probably aware of that)

Yeah, anticipate probably isn't the right word. I just think it's funny that this movie seems to parody those others before they were even made :)
