TBH I was amazed whilst looking through how small a percentage of films are actually an original IP as opposed to a sequel, reboot or based on a true story or other media. Probably only 1 in 4 is an original idea, if that.

I don't know if I'd really count
Amazing Spider Man and
Robin Hood. They've existed as IP for decades (and centuries) and these are just the latest movies that have been made. When I think "remake," I'm thinking of films based on just that one previous film. Maybe I should limit it to remakes or reboots of stuff that have come out in my lifetime. For example,
Oceans Eleven,
3:10 to Yuma and
True Grit did pretty well.
