Pauly Shore and Stephen Baldwin did a comedy called 'Bio-Dome' in 1996. The two slackers get trapped in there or something, I can't remember the little bit of plot that there was.

That was the whole plot. Two slackers get trapped inside with a bunch of scientists, so they have to make food for the slackers who just want to screw around, and in the end the slackers teach the scientists a thing or two about life. One of Pauly Shore's best works. Also it gave us this amazing video of the Safety Dance: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iVdP8bQ94XY

The Terranauts by T.C. Boyle is heavily inspired by the Biosphere 2 experiment. It contains a lot of gossip and petty behavior, and a lot of people seem to find the plot overall boring, but I still liked it. (I simply find the premise fascinating, and I think Boyle captures the atmosphere of people living closely together in a locked space well.)

Under the Dome is both a book (Stephen King) turned network drama (CBS) that ran for 3 seasons. Not quite the same as Biosphere or Biodome, but people are trapped under a dome.

Also, The Simpsons Movie. ;-)
