Seriously, just take red balloon and turn it into cgi paper planes and you have all this credit for this "HOMAGE" minus the emotional arc you felt against the bullies in red balloon with the balloon army. I mean attractive dude gets with attractive girl. That's it? This is like when Black Eyed peas made the abortion of the song "just can't get enough" remix of the seminal Depech Mode version. A travesty. This is just straight up theft.

Even though this one reminded me of Red Balloon,,i dont think it is a Rip-Off as you say..

But chances are that it ripped-off another short..Signs(2008).

Uh...when was Red Balloon about a guy who had a chance meeting with a girl he immediately likes and tries to meet with her again?

"Frying pans! Who knew right?"
