      Yeah, but I often wonder if this has more to do with the original coming out during my childhood?

      Nah, it’s probably Robin Williams that makes the OG so good.

        This is the answer right here.

        Robin Williams was amazing. The range of emotions just can’t be topped. He was the most believable actor of all time.

        I do think Robin Williams carries a lot of weight for that movie…but most is the rose-tinted nostalgia goggles. Not saying it was a bad movie by any means.

        New ones are Johnson/Hart buddy duo with Jack Black sprinkled on top. That’s quite a team and it’s really hard to compare to just Robin.
