It's also partially inspired by the 1990's remake of the Nutty Professor and the 1964 classic The Incredible Mr Limpet.
In case you don't know what the Incredile Mr Limpet is about, it's about a nerdy, bookish guy played by Don Knotts who loves fish and wants to be one himself. So he invents a potion that will turn him into a fish. When he falls into the ocean he becomes a talking fish who wears glassess and ends up becoming a world war II hero by helping out the marines. There's been a lot of talk about a remake of it, I seem to recall that at one time Jim Carrey was in talks to be in it as the lead role. Sadly it never saw the light of day but luckily you can see concept art from that movie on Bob Camp's blog.
