Hold up Haven’t I Seen This Before?


Have you ever been watching a movie and thought, “hold up have I seen this before”?  Movie déjà vu is something that is happening quite frequently in the movie industry these days. 

With Hollywood trying to make a blockbuster hit anyway possible remixing an old plot is definitely not out of the question.

Don’t believe us?

Take a look at a few productions with an awkwardly similarly plot.

A Bug’s Life/ Seven Samurai

“Villagers hire what they thinks are warriors to fight off  raiders who constantly cause chaos in their village”
