Guys who make films whether animation or not always steal ideas off each other. Not a very rare practice:)

I'm not sure why everyone makes a fuss when two movies are similar. Sure, I'd rather see more variety, but...Let's look at non-film products...

Let's say animation studio A is Coke. Now, let's say animation studio B is Pepsi. Coke has just come out with a new raspberry flavored soda. his type of soda has been getting a lot of hype, sooo...A little while later, Raspberry Pepsi pops up.

Now I hate viewing animated films as a product rather than an art just as much as the next guy, but that's what they are - artful products.

"Duel" was an ABC movie of the week - actually Spielberg's third (or fourth) feature film - but did so well in ratings that it was later given theatrical distribution internationally.
:oops: Sometimes I get so confused about what was first and what was not... Now I was going to say "OK, let's call it SS's first road-movie then" but I remembered that AMBLIN' was sort of a road-movie too. :D
