I agree, but something I should have pointed out is that when I first watched the original in 1983 I was 7, it was 10 years later that I actually read a book by Philip K Dick. If I'd watched the directors cut first I don't know if I would have been such a huge fan, and I probably wouldn't have understood the complex themes at that age.
A year later I watched David Lynch's Dune (my favourite novel) and absolutley loved it... It makes me cringe at times now (but is still a guilty pleasure). So all of those dumbed down versions of classic literature do actually work enough to attract a new fan base... If viewed by 7 year olds.

The worm has ate the apples core, beneath the skin lies curled.
Just so many a man lies sore, from the worm within the world.
