Hollywood has basically run the exact same stories and scenarios on repeat with some minor tweaking for a century. I already knew this, but the more I watch old movies, the more I can immediately recognize all of the scenes which were later regurgitated in contemporary movies.

It's actually pretty creepy. I almost wonder if they have access to some sort of ancient manuscripts on Roman bread & circuses which provides them with the archetypes and themes to use in entertainment stories in order to mass control the populations throughout history.

Oh it gets better - most horror movies are remakes of actually good asian horror movies. I was super disappointed and disillusioned with hollywood when I learned this by accident when I lived in Japan. Later found out nearly every "American" horror movie is a shity asian ripoff.
