Should Hollywood stop producing movie remakes?

in film •  8 years ago  (edited)

I think Hollywood does a lot of remakes because the money people think it's safer than taking on a new story.

That said, I wouldn't mind if, instead of trying to remake successes, they tried to remake some failures. Fahrenheit 451 was a box office bomb, but a great story that could be remade. There are a lot of other duds that could be done better.

@preparedwombat I tend to agree with you. Movie making is a business and safe bets are usually profitable ones.

Thanks for the upvote!
