I don’t think I could disagree with you more. There are so many things wrong with that train of thought that I don’t know where to begin. Of course, this is your own opinion and I can’t begrudge you too much for that. Suffice to say I have very different opinions that I’ll have to elaborate on a little later, if you’ll give me a chance. This is an interesting question – I’ll be coming back to it a little later…
*EDIT*
Okay, finally back. Instead of completely arguing your points, I’ll just give examples of “great” movies that don’t fit into your hypothesis. Ultimately though, it all depends on what YOU consider a great movie.
The following movies never started out as books, never had action figures made, never a video game based on the movie, and were never made into a TV series. Enjoy this long list (it only goes back ten years) and just think about how many I left off!!
