I don't think more value is placed on the Depp film than on the original series, not at all. It's not considered better or more deserving of attention than the 60s/70s show by anyone here, I'll go out on a limb to say. This forum isn't really a place for any new fans of the new movie, who don't appreciate the old series.
The only reason that news about the new movie is trumpeted the moment you come to the site is that it WAS news, the only new and interesting DS event for many years. The reason wasn't that anyone thought the film was better.
I post in the captions board, and the Watching Project, and those are overwhelmingly about the original series. We could use more people there, I admit.
