If you want to eat enough spaghetti to feed 4 people, that's just fine. But one occasional annoyance of cooking spaghetti is getting just enough but not too much to slide out of the container. You may often struggle between acquiring more than a few strands and less than the entire amount inside the container.
Ori Saidi and Daniel Gassner of the Israeli design studio Ototo developed the Spaghetti Tower to solve that problem. It has 4 nested caps. Just select the size right for you, pop it open, then slide the spaghetti into your hand.
To promote the Spaghetti Tower, Ototo created this mildly disturbing video. It reveals the true horror of an excess of spaghetti in one's life.

Everyone has influences. You just can't do anything that doesn't have elements of something else. Some may be direct influence, or and artist or authors come up with similar ideas independently.
Even in the case of the obvious similarities between C3PO and the lady robot in "Metropolis"... It is not a stretch for any Sci-Fi author to imagine a metal humanoid robot. Just try to come up with something that doesn't look influenced by "Metropolis".
There is still room to be creative, despite similarities to other works. The same people that designed the characters in Star Wars also did the ships and those were certainly quit different from what had been seen before.
