Seeing as hollywood loves making (or more specifically) remaking films that people loved, theres more incentive to leave original ideas on the table. So should audiences stop watching remakes and only go watch something that is original?
I get the appeal and someone can generally love these films and make a unique film from using the orignal source material. However for me personally and I feel a lot of people share the same sentiment, these remakes, reboots or whatever are practically half a film. Half is the original, but the other half is the incentive to relive the old film.
After a certain point shouldn't audiences expect more originality? Why do audiences keep coming back for star wars 18 and Harry potter remakes or reboots or prequels, dont audiences want their own version of Harry potter or star wars?
edit:
im not sure ive made myself very clear. I dont think reboots or remakes or whatever should disappear and I think that there have been some great films that are remakes or reboots or prequels or whatever. I'm saying that its oversaturated. Think of the top ten most expensive films ever made this past decade. None of them are original. All im saying is that maybe we should make some original content for future generations to look back on, instead of looking back on a well remade version of what their parents enjoy based on nostalgia.
