That's an ignorant viewpoint. The biggest idea I've taken from Buddhism at this point in my life is that everything is special. That butt-fucking-ugly shit-stain of a Wal-Mart at the edge of town is just as beautiful as the top of Mt. Elbert in Colorado—if you know how to look at things.

Yeah, there's something to be said about the simplicity and minimalism of Lee's run during that time frame. I think that kind of style works best for the medium.
