To start there is a fine line between getting inspired and imitating. I have seen Hindi films which are 'inspirations' of an English film, but if I would be the producer of the corresponding English one I would go straight and sue the Hindi filmmaker right away. I thought getting inspired is to do some original work of your own because you are overwhelmed/ creatively stimulated by what just inspired you. Not nonchalantly copying the most part of your inspiration and 'in'geniusly changing the language/ costumes and then outrageously denying that you have nothing to do with the source whatsoever.
I have seen the case with fashion, books, articles where the entire idea is copied with not even a tribute to the original. At least add a tribute/ citation for something you 'know' is not your own. Or maybe the getting 'inspired' guys delude themselves to thinking it is.
On the contrary, to be in a position to inspire someone is a big deal...
