First I have a question. If a completely original movie comes out, and then 50 other filmmakers copy it. Does it retain its original originality? Or does it cease being original because it's been done 50 times since then?

Why are so many of you posting book adaptations? I feel that saying that is different than "NOT ORIGINAL THAT WAS DONE TWENTY YEARS EARLIER IN BLAHHHH" because that case sounds more like coincidence or that maybe that person wasn't aware of the "original" movie. But usually with these book movies, it straight up says it in the title card or at the start of the credits.

While I like most movies stated, they're mostly all books first, some better though in certain areas.
Honestly, I'm struggling to think of any. Maybe cause the best movies aren't original... Being John Malkovich Blazing Saddles The Matrix I have a feeling those are all books, but I haven't read them yet. --- Warning: Sometimes biased https://imgur.com/V0x5fw8 https://imgur.com/IOovUge https://imgur.com/zw7bqPH ...

Nice to see all the love for Malkovich.

Just because a movie is based on a book doesnt make it unoriginal. Often times a film adaptation is striving for something completely different than the source material
