Bastion is not claiming that they're in the same universe... filmmakers draw easter-eggs and nods to creators in several film franchises... George Lucas, for example, commonly uses THX-1138 as a title for multiple hidden nods in several of his Star Wars films. Does that take away from the film "THX-1138"? No, as a matter of fact, it actually draws more attention to Lucas' lesser known first film. And the same is said for Jurassic Park. After reading the Jurassic Park novels, I decided to check out his other works. Although they all don't fit into one cohesive universe, many of his companies and concepts bear striking resemblance to eachother ("Drug of Choice" deals with a secretive genetics company engineering medicines & drugs on a tropical island in Central America, International Technology Corp., BioGen --ergo Internation Genetic Technologies Inc.)
