Post subject:  Wall-E and Alien(s)
I just watched Wall-E a few days ago with my son and I noticed the two following references (:?:) to Alien and Aliens movies :
- The music the first time the probe is landing on Earth has noticeable sounds making me think of the one in Alien when the Nostromo is landing on LV-426
- The "house" Wall-E is living in resembles the APC
Have you also noticed that (and others) ?
By the way, Wall-E is a great movie ; you should watch it if not already done :lol:

I've got it on Blu-ray and the extras/commentary mention the following Aliens homages;

Eve's blue scanning laser is based on the laser scanner used in the Narcissus at the start of Aliens, just before the salvage team enter.

When Eve blows up the shipyard, a metal bar is thrown past Wall-E in the explosion, which is taken from the Dropship crash, where a similar bar is seen in shot and heard bouncing as it hits the ground. :)

When the fridge door is cut open by Wall-E I half expected the sound effects to be the same as in Aliens (when the Narcissus door hits the deck), but they weren't. :roll:
