"this is almost a parody of how modern web dev innovation HTML5/JS/CSS are so far behind the technology that actually exists in the world today (this was originally created in 1977)"
That's a weird opinion. The original was analog, created by several people and shoot carefully in specific conditions. This HTML version was made by a guy in his bedroom in a fraction of a time and is sharable, editable and can be viewed on many devices, including mobile, instead of just a movie theatre like the original. For me this is innovation across the board (not only in web standards, but technology overall)
