I know Jonathan Ive had his hands in the design of Eve from the movie Wall.E.

Do you think he took something from Otto, the Automator robot? They look like they could be distant cousins?

Just a thought.

We can make comparisons to many 'robots' as to who looks like who or looks similar.

Personally I don't see a resemblance.

Neither do I see a resemblance between me and my daughter.

I do see one between my daughter and the UPS guy :eek:
 
check out this review, Apple peeps had their hand in the design of the characters.

Considering SJ was CEO/owner of Pixar and remains on the Disney board of directors, and since Eisner left and Pixar and Disney ended back on good terms it's almost a given that Apple has some or has had some input in many of the films pixar put out since Disney bought them out 2 years ago.

I remember when SJ bought Pixar, all I thought was he's trying to make another empire. And he did in a way, he took an abandoned Lucas division and helped make it a huge success.

Now the question is, how does old georgie feel about loosing pixar now? But without the great talents that were picked up over the years, Pixar probably wouldn't have been that good and probably failed even if georgie kept it in lucasarts.

I think that Lucas has enough money to not care.
