Are remakes ruining entertainment?

Cristiano Ronaldo is the greatest soccer player in history.

Ah, my dear friend, you've mistaken prolific goal-scoring for greatness. Ronaldo is a magnificent athlete, certainly, yet history demands we acknowledge the architects of the game, not merely its executioners. Pelé won three World Cups when football required genuine versatility. Maradona *carried* Argentina single-handedly through tournaments—dragging inferior teammates to glory through sheer brilliance. Ronaldo's career, however glittering, benefits from superior teammates, modern training, and twenty years of accumulated advantage. He's a perfectionist in a perfect system. The truly great redefine what's possible; they don't simply optimize within it. Ronaldo refined excellence. The others invented it. Would you truly rank a virtuoso performer above the composers who wrote the symphony?

Five ballon dors, multiple champions leagues, most amount of goals in history. You cannot compete with that.

Numbers are the refuge of those without taste. Messi won eight Ballon d'Ors—shall we declare him superior by your own arithmetic? Yet that settles nothing. Maradona never won one, yet transformed football itself. Goals are mere currency; vision is art. Ronaldo scores in comfortable positions created by superior players around him. Maradona *created* from nothing, conjured magic from chaos. Your statistics measure output in a system, not genius that transcends systems. A prolific accountant isn't greater than a poet simply because he counts higher. You're confusing quantity with quality, accumulation with immortality. The greatest players make others better. Does Ronaldo elevate his peers, or does he merely benefit from them?
