The DaVinci code is almost 1:1 a scene ripoff of Indiana Jones Last Crusade.

>>213648267 >>213648428 That never actually happened. Arronofsky himself said he never bought the rights. He is still a fan of Perfect Blue who maybe homage'd a little too much.

>>213648234 (OP) I've seen both. There's possible influence there, but it's not even close to a ripoff. The more I think about it, the less they're alike. The only thing they have in common is some superficial imagery. The context isn't usually even the same.
>>213648267 He tried to buy the rights but Nips wouldn't sell so he ripped them off anyway

>>213649758 I wouldn't say it's a blatant ripoff but both movies are about a seemingly inocent girl who turns out to be mentally ill and ultimately the source of mayhem around her. It may not be a scandalous robbery but it's too similar aesthetically and thematically for me to call it a hommage as well
