And one more thing, it stands in relation to art as Donald Trump stands in relation to Alexander Hamilton in political philosophy. It represents in miniature the collapse and degradation of our entire civilization. It is the replacement of Aristotle by Sean Hannity. Its only excellence is that the experience of sitting through the entire original film is slightly less deleterious to cognition, taste, and judgment than any and all of the subsequent followup sequels mining pelf from an audience so corrupted by the last 5 decades of the previous century that they are happy to imbibe drafts of mucus under the illusion that it's Chafteau du Neuf du Pap.

So you're saying that the first film is really the only one worth watching?

I agree.
