Comment on Are there any story ripoffs that are actually good?

I think early Disney movies are pretty good. They usually just took an archaic horror story intended for adults, got rid of all the gore and murder, rewrote the rest, and somehow ended up with a children’s movie. Those ripoff versions became so famous and influential that people no longer think of the originals.
Maybe in two hundred years someone will start ripping off Saw movies to make kindergarten holo-ventures. Oh no! Gus Colyard, the ice cream merchant, got stuck in the freezer. Can you find the key to the door?
