Movies

Is there really any originality in movies anymore? Other than adaptations from books and the retelling of previous movies, is there anything new anymore? The Twilight series is from a book. Almost every comic book character has been done to death already. Some (Batman, Superman) even get their stories redone. Now The Dark Knight was perhaps one of the greatest "revisions" of The Joker but there is no originality anymore. Next thing you know we'll be seeing new versions of Gone With the Wind and The Godfather, as if Hollywood actually thinks they can do better than Clark Gable and Marlon Brando.
