I have had an epiphany of enormous proportions this afternoon.
There are reasons I like both Harry Potter and Meet the Robinsons. It's all connected. CONNECTED, I SAY! I was watching, and I noticed the design on Wilbur's shirt, and I gasped so loud I freaked my sister out.
Yes, I shall explain all similarities.
Numero one: The lightning bolt. Harry has a lightning bolt on his forehead, and Wilbur has one on his shirt. Upside down, but it's a lightning bolt nonetheless. Coincidence? Probably, but I'm still going to say the dramatic thing: I THINK NOT! Right, so, there's one. The lightning bolt.
Number duo: Lewis has round, dorky glasses. Harry has round, dorky glasses. Are you getting this? Do you understand? Wilbur has the lightning bolt and Lewis has the same glasses. I swear to God, my subconscious brings these things together! It's why I like MtR so much, I'm sure of it. *pets subconscious happily*
Nombre tres: Lewis is an orphan. Harry is an orphan. Swear to Merlin, I'm not making this stuff up!
Four: The villain. Mmkay, so, Bowler Hat Guy and Voldemort are both tall and creepy looking, and although Bowler Hat Guy is a moron (and in the end, we sympathise with him, unlike You Know Who), they still have the same goal in life. And I quote: "Oh, nothing of consequence, I simply wish to CRUSH THE DREAMS OF A POOR LITTLE ORPHAN BOY!" Sound like a certain Dark Lord we all know? Yeah. Thought so.
