homage

n. an honor, tribute, or respectful reference to someone or something.

The word is pronounced "OM-ij" or "HOM-ij", not "oe-MAZH", as is popular in the entertainment industry. This erroneous pronunciation came about when people starting thinking the word was French and wanted to sound sophisticated. The word is not French. It comes from Middle English, then from Old French, which was not pronounced the same as modern French. The French word for homage is "hommage" (with two m's).
The remake made an homage to the original by casting the heroine from the old film as the heroine's mother in the new film.
