Quote:In the Year of the Earth Rat, the Great and Powerful calvin declared: About a year ago I was severely chastized for saying, without seeing it, that 'Last Action Hero' ripped off 'The Purple Rose of Cairo'. Now I've seen it, as promised, and can confidently say that it was indeed a rip-off. Though both 'Hero' and 'Rose' had something in common with 'Sherlock Jr.', they had much more in common with each other, and the Woody Allen movie came a few years before the Schwarzenegger movie. They certainly have similar premises, but I don't think that's enough to make it a rip-off, any more than "Galaxy Quest" is a rip-off of "The Three Amigos," or "Quick Change" is of "After Hours." -- Sean O'Hara <http://diogenes-sinope.blogspot.com Just hold tight--calvin's going to do some documenting. That will fix everything. |
