Movie "twins" of all time
 

You know how throughout movie history, often times there will be one movie that comes along, then another one that is sort of the exact same idea and almost exactly around the same time?

Some examples:

* Armageddon & Deep Impact

* Natural Born Killers & Kalifornia

Can you think of more?

Dante's Peak and Volcano. Two disaster movies about a volcano eruption.

Madagascar and The Wild. Two movies about a group of zoo animals leaving the zoo.

Olympus Has Fallen & White House Down, of course.

A Bug's Life and Antz.

Robin Hood (1991) and Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves.
K-9 and Turner & Hooch.
The Adventures of Priscilla Queen of the Desert and To Wong Foo, Thanks for Everything! Julie Newmar.

Good thread! This **** kinda pisses me off and I pretty common. Off the top of my head:

- The Prestige and The Illusionist
- Friends with Benefits and No Strings Attached literally came out the same year
- Finding Nemo and Shark Tale

I didn't even know that first one existed.

Mirror, Mirror vs Snow White and the Huntsman

What? It was Kevin Costner at his box office peak! Bryan Adams’ “Everything I Do” practically held the world hostage for as much as it got played. And the film’s orchestra score main theme (by Michael Kamen) became a staple bg track of unrelated film trailers for YEARS afterwards.

I think Andrew is referring to this one. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robin_...1_British_film)

Released May 1991 (I see it didn't receive a theatrical release in the US) while Robin Hood: PoT was June 1991.

Oh, yeah, I was mentally mixing up the titles for Prince of Thieves with Men in Tights!

There were two Columbus films released in 1992, and we did Carry On Columbus here in the UK, so three.

Groundhog Day and 12:01

If you can call them close enough release wise, Tombstone and Wyatt Earp.

Sliding Doors and Run Lola Run

Wasn’t there another Christopher Robin film out around the same time the one with Ewan McGregor released?
