Whatever Happened to originality?

Rating: Null/10 (20 September 2003)

Contrary to popular belief about Holywood stealing and remaking yet another classic "British" film. The original was pure Holywood, made by an American studio and paid for by an American studio, hardly a "British" film then. What does annoy me though is the fact that Why remake an already good film? Are Holywood studios that desperate for ideas that the best they can come up with is this. Is this the end of originality? Are we now, as seems more and more evident considering the growing list of dire remakes, to be condemed to a never ending circle of remakes that constantly repeats itself?!!!!!!!!!! If thats what passes for being a producer or scriptwriter these days , Hell !!! I want to get on that Gravy Train.
