I know we get our panties in a twist about Hollywood's lack of originality...
But its sorta always been this way.
Dracula
The Great Gatsby
Jane Eyre (1934, 1943, 1970, 1983, 1996, and 2011)
Great Expectations (5 film adaptations)
Robin Hood (5 remakes)
King Kong
Three Musketeers (1921, 1935, 1939, 1948, 1961, 1973, 1993, and 2011)
Batman
A Christmas Carol
Even Brewster's Millions as most know from Richard Pryor was made 7 times (1914, 1921, 1926, 1935, 1945, 1961, and 1985.)

To be fair, Robin Hood is public domain so I assume it's a relatively cheap way to make a movie about a highly recognizable character, no matter how many times it bombs.

Robin Hood (5 remakes)
And that's not counting the five silent "shorts" that preceded the other 18. The best one is the second feature film, and the first talkie.
List of Robin Hood feature films on Wikipedia
ETA:
Batman looks out of place on your list.
Were any of the Batman movies made before Batman (1989) for adults?
The one from the 60's was the first real movie. It was done because so many kids watched the show to see, "POW!"
The 1989 Michael Keaton Batman started the superhero fad.
In the first four decades of film making, three Batman films were made.
In the next four decades there are 11 named some derivative of Batman, and he's been in four other movies. A dozen Batman movies!
ETA:
The 1973 The Three Musketeers was the best of those.
