Hi All, I know it's not just me. Wall-E is a dead copy of Number 5 from Short Circuit (1973?).
I saw the filmmaker and clips at Wondercon SF and someone asked him about the similarity to Short Circuit. He claimed ignorance of the other film, not surprising since he said he was trying to evoke the great science fiction films of the past (his youth), i.e. Blade Runner, 2001, Star Wars, etc. Michael, Cinecityposters </HTML> Visit the MoPo Mailing List Web Site at www.filmfan.com ___________________________________________________________________ How to UNSUBSCRIBE from the MoPo Mailing List Send a message addressed to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] In the BODY of your message type: SIGNOFF MOPO-L The author of this message is solely responsible for its content.
