Things don't always improve with newer versions. Sometime they get worse.
Ever heard of:
a) if it ain't broke, don't fix it, OR
b) old is gold.
Let's talk Bollywood style:
Your logic would mean that SHOLAY-2 will be better than SHOLAY-1. Same for DON. Wasn't Dilip Kumar better than Shah-Rukh Khan. Wasn't Kishore Kumar better than Kumar Sanu. Mohammad Rafi was far superior than Sonu Nigam.
So new isn't always better. If that was the case, you would always leave your old wife for a new one.
