With majority of new releases being rehashed versions of the movies we've already seen, it's undeniable that Hollywood is supported by the pillars of nostalgia. Whether it's a re-imagining, reboot, prequel or sequel, these "movie retakes" are capitalizing on the franchises we know and love. Some are hits, some are flops. Originality, however, is not lost.
