Gordy's board isn't on my watchlist.

You do the math.

You really cannot compare them. I read "Charlotte's Web" in fourth grade ( the class cried so hard at the end, boy's included, that the principal came down to find out what the fuss was about !) I had never heard of this story until the film came out. If the technology had existed when "Charlotte's Web" was made into a film it may have been wonderful, as it was it was animated by Hanna-Barbera, was cast with voice actors, some of which were well-known and made into a musical. I think it holds up today. I have not seen the newer adaptation because the thought of Julia Roberts as Charlotte makes my skin crawl and I cannot imagine a better Templeton than Paul Lynde. Just because the technology was available did not mean there needed to be another version. Frankly, I would rather read the book.
