Reliance On Our Past

A new article has been posted! This time I focus on the resurgence of remakes in the film and television industries. Are we really lacking in creativity so much that we can't create interesting and engaging content anymore? Just follow the link and check it out! Thanks!
"Dallas, 21 Jump Street, Dark Shadows, Fame, Footloose. What do these all have in common? All of these are either recent television shows or movies that have been remade from classic originals. All of these were huge back in the day (most taking place in the ‘70s or ‘80s), some even redefining what their own genres of entertainment meant such as the television show Dallas. While the remakes never seem to live up to the originals, why is it that the entertainment industry is so focused on resurrecting our past?"
