Reminds me a lot of Charlotte's Web


Ok, maybe it's not the exact same story but it does seem kind of similar and not just because it stars a pig but because it stars a pig who's afraid he will end up as Sausage at a family dinner. I wonder if they got the idea from Charlotte's Web. What do you think? Do the movies stand on their own?

It's a Charlotte's Web ripoff. Okay with me. Everything's inspired from something else. You know, like the Hunger Games was inspired by Battle Royale. Do the movies stand on their own? What should I say? They kind of mirror each other as a parallel telling of the same story. Babe just happens to be an incredibly well done live action production.

No, it was released in 1973 and the book over 20 years before that.
