"and originality tends to cost even more money.."

Sad thing is that originality does not only cost money in the sense of the expense needed to create a film/TV script, it also costs money at the box office because so many people prefer to see something they 'know'.

No matter how many people wail and gnash at Hollywood sequels, remakes and reimaginings, truth is they only exist because they sell, and they only sell because that's how most people are wired
