Hi.

Hope you’re doing well.

Some people do believe Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery so no judgment here from me.

However, it seems quite blatant to those who have seen both movies how Pearl Harbor is a movie which tried to be a World War II version of Titanic only four years later but it ended up being a huge bloated mess aside from the great action for a third of the roughly three-hour runtime. You can clearly see the parallels between both movies. Anyone who’s seen both will know what I’m talking about.

What are other movies which probably wouldn’t have been made had a very iconic/popular film from a few years prior not been released and become very successful that formed as the latter movie’s main inspiration?
