that’s patently not what “original” means in any industry bc that’s a definition that doesn’t functionally work. all art, from any time or place, is inspired and derived from prior works, and heavily so. there is no such thing as making something entirely “original,” this is a capitalist myth to cut you off from your heritage as a human being. this fetishization of “originality” is peak capitalist brainrot vibes. everything iterates on everything else. this isn’t fucking news, it’s how it’s always been, and if we could stop using state violence to enforce the “ownership” of ideas and IP we could all be free once again. westerners have forgotten what freedom is, what it means.
It’s still an original idea and not a reboot
In film and TV, original means it was not derived from pre-existing source material. Reboots, adaptations, remakes and revivals are not original.
