Looking back at the original ONLY, Robert's Freddy really wasn't "spectacular" either. What scared most people back then was the concept of NOES, not the character himself. Robert created Freddy over a span of 8 films. So, I think it's unfair to compare the two when JEH has had only 1 chance thus far. If comparisons will be drawn, ONLY compare apples to apples... i.e. compare the Freddy of the original and the Freddy of the remake. Robert Englund didn't do anything amazing or dramatically noteworthy in the original. He was good but it was the many years of sequels that created Freddy. Freddy wasn't a wide-spread phenom until after a couple of sequels.
