I did. Especally when Arnold, Willis, Mr. Drummond were walking into the building of their penthouse, and George and Weezy were walking into theirs with the doorman standing there. That's a little similar.

They are kind of similar, both opening feature the characters on the way to their new place while riding through Manhattan and once they reach the destination, you see a shot of the Apt Buliding with the Characters entering the Buliding.
