"the computer wore tennis shoes" was inspiration?


i watched "the computer wore tennis shoes" for the first time recently and realized that it has some interesting similarities:

1. it's about a school where corruption fails the students
2. a student becomes (is) a genius
3. he is used by bad guys for his genius
4. he is held in a house with a ridiculous color scheme that resembles the iconic house in "real genius"

???
