These days it may sometimes feel like all film media is a remake, reboot or reimagining of an old story, maybe reworked for a modern audience - or simply just a shot-for-shot remake in every sense of the word. This is by no means a new phenomenon, however, and has been around in some form or another since the very beginning of the film industry, since the very first film camera was placed in the very first train station. We may critique film studios for their "lack of vision" or "unoriginality," but how much have they actually learned in the hundred-plus years of film, and are remakes today any different to remakes back then?
