I recently saw the movie Avatar (maybe you've heard of it) and while watching, I kept thinking to myself:
This is a rip off of Roger Dean's work!

It was a great movie, don't get me wrong, but was it really coincidental how many similarities the world of Pandora and the works of Roger Dean share?

Floating mountains!

I think we've already had a thread about this, but original story my arse.

Na'vi = Nave? Pandora = Pandora? Coincidence?!
I think not.

Oops, didn't see it.
Well, at least I'm not going crazy then.
