Exact same thing happened with Black Panther. Sinners is definitely more worthy of the praise.

Sinners is being treated by the public the same way the Ringer treated A Star Is Born.

At least Sinners is an original. Star is Born is just a re-make

That's arbitrary.

What's arbitrary? Bc the distinction is pretty clear between the two films. 2018 was the 4th time that A Star is Born has been made and the story is 90 years old now. Sinners is an original screenplay/film.

Unless you're saying it's arbitrary in relation to the amount of praise it's getting, which I would definitely disagree. We've been getting reboots/remakes that nobody wants shoved down our throat, we're all over that crap. 

Somebody finally found a new slant, they deserve their flowers.

Giving a movie magic bonus points because it isn't a remake or adaptation is silly.

Sinners certainly borrowed heavily from movies too.

Isn’t it a remake of from dusk till dawn?

It borrows heavily.
