Sky Captain and Word of Tomorrow and Laputa

[BCskunk]

For those that have seen both movies - Sky Captain and the World of Tomrorrw and the Miyazai movie: Laputa - dont you think theres some similaries between them?

the first thing that came to my mind was the robots in the sky captain...they are EXACTLY like the Laputa robots..

long wing-like arms...similar size and shape...both emits laser from head..

i wonder if Laputa had any influence...

also the whole idea of a another world/race trying to take over earth..

what are your thoughts?

Yeah, because robots with lasers and another race trying to take over the world is a totally new idea.
