I've watched both movies, never made the connection, even if some scenes are replicated or very heavily inspired, this is nothing new in art in general, not by any measure, and both works are still infinitely more original than the N'th sequel/prequel of whatever they've pushing the last 15 years.

Painting portray the same subject, or use the same lightning or the same composition or be a comment on the same theme endlessly. Music, books, movies, products, they will always be a product of imagination + previous experience, and that's perfectly human, and good. The artificial limitation on this sometimes inspire great stuff, and other times, the opposite.
