Movie Reboots

How many reboots will there be in the movie theatres? This is the generation of unoriginal movies. We get recession and rehash. Yippee, thanks a ton. Think we need to do something. Thank God Dave Eggers is getting his hat into the ring; someone willing to use his brain and ours. Not to mention his charity. But why work hard on a good story when Hollywood can ruin something already good? Like Chris Pine will be the 4th actor to be Jack Ryan in one of the Tom Clany novels going to screen. That's a 4th reboot. 4th times a charm?!
Though I like some reboots, like the aforementioned Pine's Star Trek and I feel certain I'll like Where the Wild Things Are & The Crazies but with movies like all the crappy Transformers flicks and even the Nightmare on Elm Street coming, I can't help but feel alittle insulted. Our over stimulated minds, high on video games and Code Red and Facebook can't take an original idea that might make us think? Try us dammit...
