Using OP's logic, there is a lot of things in the movieverse that could inspire a someone else to study something.

A friend of mine liked Ironman's movie and he studied something related to that just because his fascination to the suit and Tony Stark himself.

Plan 9 from Outer Space

I am dead serious because It will make you want to go out and create something. At least you in have this basis "I know I can do better than that" and "what to NOT do wrong" in making a movie.
