How do?
Just a very quick one....
Recently, Hollywood has been given a lot of flak for the number of remakes and reboots they're attempting. Many see this as the death of Hollywood as a creative entity.
And yet....Theatre has been doing this very thing for centuries, if not millenia (I'm rubbish at history, but Greek plays and that) and nobody has batted an eyelid. You don't hear people complaining about yet another remounting of The Scottish Play. Nobody complains when Romeo and Juliet is adapted to modernise the tale.
So why is cinema catching all this flak? Are remakes not ultimately inescapable? Take the recent Robocop. Whilst not as entertaining as the original, it remains in itself a decent film. They've taken the core story of Robocop, and remounted the tale for an age of entirely modern paranoia about drones, and personal freedom of choice.
