And don't say "it's because they used different movies to remake" because that would be a weak argument. Doug

I’d like to know how you could come up with that opinion of “parallel thinking” because unless you spoke with the writers of Be Kind, how could you just from watching the movie? And don’t say “it’s because they used different movies to remake” because that would be a weak argument.

It may happen all the time in Hollywood, but that doesn't mean that it should be viewed as acceptable behavior. People who birth ideas deserve the credit for them. That being said, I did see be kind rewind today, and after doing so it does appear that this could be a case of parallel thinking.

Interestingly, TMB surprises me with threads like this. Come on guys, you're movie fans and in the business, and ripping off ideas isn't exactly new or un-Hollywood. This has been going on for YEARS of not decades. "Be Kind - Rewind" is not an original concept, but that doesn't mean squat in an industry known for this sort of behaviour. Hell, just last year, I could've sworn I'd seen "Hitman" before, titled "The Bourne Identity". Pretty similar to me.
