I mean, if "all things being equal," the original has more artistic merit, because it grants a greater number of opportunities to create things, wouldn't that only matter if those things were then better than and not equal to the later iterations of those things?
I love both versions of High Fidelity but the movie so overrides everything else that when I read it, even though in the book they're English, I can still only picture Cusack and Jack Black and that other guy

If you are going to complain a out the lack of original movies. You really shouldn't complain about this one as I believe is maybe Jim Carey's second sequel ever.

nope!
Because creativity is not about quality.
Why not?
because?
Because one comes from the other? Innovation and perfection are different.

That seems like an arbitrary distinction between abstractions that's kinda divorced from assessing the artistic merit of actual works.

also having never read the comic I thought V for Vendetta was pretty good?
i never read the comic and didn't think it was very good.
yeah i dunno i mean
it didn't blow me away or anything but i enjoyed it and would probably watch it again
It's watchable, yeah. but it's just kinda like a movie. nothing really remarkable happens. a lot of the events are telegraphed and they couldn't make up their minds on if we should like or hate V.
Guys, I have a confession to make.
I saw the Dumb and Dumber prequel.
In theaters.
And thought some of it was funny.
I....I needed to get that off my chest.

I liked The Thing and The Fly more than their originals.
Ooooh, Jurassic Park
I gotta think about that one
Need some stuff designed or printed? I can help with that.
Why not?
Satans..... hints.....
I think that's a shame.
Because if he did he would have probably faded away into obscurity.

I dunno if it counts, but give me the Cinematic Titanic version of Santa Claus conquers the martians over the MST3K original any day.
everything they were attached to in 2003 sucked.
A question best left unanswered.
Matrix 2/3 and it wasn't like speed racer was technically a good movie.
Hah. Oh yeah. V for vendetta.

And we will leave it at that.

woooah this is great

The Matrix, V for Vendetta and Speed Racer are all great in my book.
I personally enjoy The Matrix 2 & 3.
But beyond that I think they don't have enough films to be judged so harshly.

I nerd raged about that movie.
So much.

I would not, however, say it was very good
