It does however bring up an interesting question: do inferior, continuity-affected sequels somehow manage to cheapen the impact of the original films? (Upon repeated viewings of the originals, or just in memory alone?).
It is insulting....so why do I insist on watching them all? LOL:p
Seriously, I think that in a way it does lessen the impact of the original film. Because they are manipulating the same characters and storylines that you remember. It is bound to bleed over into that initial experience if you watch them all. It changes how you view the original, at least a tiny bit.
