seven samurai?
the Matrix?
Err.
I didn't mean original in the sense of an entirely original idea (which are extremely rare), simply in the sense that the first film/films in a frachise like these two are far superior to their followups, alienating all but those who are ardent (blinkered) fans.

i got punched the other day for the following conversation
alon: I met steven hawkings last year
me: wow, how come?
alon: oh it was some conference or other for prospective physics students
me: ahhh fair enough
alon: it was weird though, he was trying to persuade us to do this degree which he could probably do in hios spare time without even thinking about it
me: yeah, but i play frisbee in my spare time and there's fuck all chance of him doing that
at which point i started singing "i just can't, i just can't, i just can't control my feet" (damn you mystery bob)
i feel i was unfairly treated
