thegreatJash Posted June 16, 2020 Share Posted June 16, 2020 Hello people, The other day I was thinking about Walter & Woby and somehow the movie "Up" managed to pop up in my mind. After watching the short, I thought that it was kinda weird that Walter, a boy scout, befriends a dog using some sort of food. In Up, Russell, a boy scout, befriends a dog as well. Personally, I think it's coincidence, but I don't know... What do you think? Do any other characters have obvious references?

Lovely Roses Posted June 16, 2020 Share Posted June 16, 2020 Personally I don't think it's a reference, but Walter really does remind me of Russell. So I could see why someone would think its a reference or that Walter and Woby are based off of that.

Lammarr Posted June 16, 2020 Share Posted June 16, 2020 And Woodie is Carl Fredricksen while Maxwell is Charles F. Muntz, hmm yes, perfect. Don't Starve Together was always a retelling of Up.

GenomeSquirrel Posted June 16, 2020 Share Posted June 16, 2020 I think the earliest barrel dog reference is that. https://www.nga.gov/collection/art-object-page.220510.html Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/119134-do-you-think-walter-woby-are-a-reference-to-pixars-up/#findComment-1344016 Share on other sites More sharing options...
sudoku Posted June 16, 2020 Share Posted June 16, 2020 Walter seems more like he was ripped from Gravity Falls imo.

GetNerfedOn Posted June 16, 2020 Share Posted June 16, 2020 For some odd reason Walter reminds me of Lucas from Stranger Things.
