Anyone who watches Bollywood knows this: We have run out of stories and keep making the same movies over and over again.

But here’s the thing. If you think Bollywood is the only industry fresh out of stories, then you need to take a good hard look at Hollywood.
Because someone just started a thread about Hollywood movies that have the exact same stories and still released the same year.

Both of these films came to German cinemas in summer 2018. I went into the biopic about PTSD, expecting to see the one where Winnie the Pooh came alive. pic.twitter.com/mqKcdj9QGj
