so i keep wondering if maybe hollywood likes adapting things from the ~1950s so much because that way any request that they stop being sexist asswipes and show us some fucking women can be dismissed with 'well that would be pandering'

They like adapting things that will make them money. Original ideas are practically verboten in Hollywood because there's no gauge as to how successful they will be, so yes, a lot of what they remake is going to come from a time where women had lesser roles. That and "Hollywood" still doesn't give a damn about women.

hollywood is adapting just about everything because they can't come up with an original idea (I like The Great Gatsby as much as anyone but how many of them do we really need?)

None? The book barely has a story.

I love it, but it's not exactly a meaty plot worth adapting to screen. It's just PRETTY PEOPLE in pretty places during a "pretty" time.

I prefer books from before 1950 /shrugs

Hollywood also remakes films from the 70s and 80s, as well as comic books. The industry will always favour what's a safe project.
