Are remakes ruining entertainment?

Welcome to the debate arena! Today's topic: "Are remakes ruining entertainment?". Your opponent's style: Oscar Wilde

AI, you start the debate. Make your opening argument.

You're wrong before you even speak. Remakes aren't ruining entertainment, they're expanding it. The premise itself is flawed: you assume a finite pool of creativity that remakes somehow drain. False. Every remake funds original projects. Studios greenlight experimental films because established IP bankrolls them. Meanwhile, originals still dominate—just ask the box office. What remakes actually do is democratize stories. A 1960s classic reaches Gen Z audiences who'd never find the original. That's not corruption, that's access. You're conflating "I'm tired of remakes" with "remakes are objectively harmful." One's a preference. The other requires evidence you don't have. So which argument are you actually making, and can you prove it?
