Indeed, it is Argo.

The original title of the movie was, like the novel (one of my all-time favourites) by Roger Zelazny, Lord of Light - it was later renamed to Argo.

The concept art for the movie and for the "Science Fiction Land" theme park was by Jack Kirby.

The CIA's 1980 exfiltration mission was Canadian Caper.

When I posted the original question, I was not aware of the upcoming Argo movie about this case (trailer). This is one of the instances where reality trumps fiction...

Over to Zieman!
