Maybe I am stretching it, but if we are going to go back that far, lets go back further with Abbott & Costello.
Cant resist pointing out that the movie "Rush Hour 2" with Jacky Chan and Chris Tucker paid homage to this motif. All be it much shorter. But still the comedic principle of playing off of misunderstanding.
I honestly think Robin if still alive would love people talking about comedy in general. Pretty darned sure he had his own influences too.
One of the last entries in this wiki Article about Robin lists his influences.

For the FINAL TIME - This is a thread about Robin Williams. It is not about Abbot, Costello, Jackie Chan, Chris Tucker, or Herbie The Love Bug. If you persist in posting things not related to Williams, I'm going to start - the very least - deleting your posts.
Govern yourself accordingly.
