So yeah... what's up with Pixar and DreamWorks having similar pictures all the time?
First there was
A Bug's Life (1998), comparable to Antz (1998). Two movies about ants. No big deal... probably a coincidence, right?
Then there was
Finding Nemo (2003), and shortly after
Shark Slayer (2004)
(later renamed to
Shark Tale... probably to make it seem less intimidating). Both movies about fish.
Now there's a new movie called
WALL·E (2008)... heard of it? You have? Wow!!! Yay! Originally, the humans were supposed to be aliens, and the aliens were made of green Jell-o. Now I see trailers for this new movie...
Monsters vs Aliens (2009), a movie about aliens and monsters, and there are green Jell-o-like creatures.
Why?!
Am I trying too hard to find these similarities? Are they purely coincidental?
