Counter argument: it stands in its own and has no need to compete with its predecessor, it’s an authentic and organic development from the previous installment that build upon it, ATSV is great and it makes ITSV greater as a whole. Can’t wait for BTSV

ATSV is great but the plot takes a dive once I realized miles is cool with killing off his entire universe for a few extra hugs from dad…

ATSV was great and really escalated what ITSV accomplished. That being said, I think ITSV is just better as a standalone film, whereas ATSV is very much meant to be enjoyed as part of a trilogy.
