    I feel like if they had a different title like ‘The Crow: [Insert Subtitle Here]’ it might’ve worked as its own thing. But, considering that they’re so adamant that it’s Eric Draven’s story makes it a little worse. I will say the trailer did a better job representing the movie than the first promotional image.

      Yeah I felt this way when they tried to make another Batman movie in 1989 when we already had a Batman movie in 1967 with the one and only Adam West. There should only ever be one adaptation of a comic book character. When I saw that stupid rubber suit on Keaton I was like OMG what the fk is that?!! And not only that but they didn’t even do a version where Dick Grayson took over the role of Batman, they actually did it as Bruce Wayne.

    • @Wolfsheim23
      @Wolfsheim23 4 місяці тому

      They did that with all the previous sequels. Those were pretty terrible. The TV Show wasn't too bad, but still that would be a better idea than trying to do Eric Draven again with an actor that wears makeup more reminiscent of Pennywise than The Crow. It's all we can see and it's a huge distraction. Yes they should have maybe got the original comic writer on board, made a new modern revenant, and came up with something strong in writing. But no.. they are too ridiculously lazy

  • @Horrormaster13

    The original Crow (1994) had a really gritty look to it, and while this Remake has ultra violence, it kind of screams more John Wick than The Crow. Part of the Crow is that he’s literally supposed to be undead. Instead this just comes across as a dude with powers that he can’t die like Wolverine.

    • @harrykatsaros
      @harrykatsaros 4 місяці тому +3

      So to be undead you need to paint your face white? Because that the only difference I see. Forget the fact that he obviously bleeds black from what we saw in the trailer. White face paint is the qualifier for undead.

    To me, The Crow with Brandon Lee (for a 1994 film) is an atmospheric masterpiece with eerily beautiful New Wave elements. Brandon Lee as Eric Draven (Eric the Raven) conveys a lot of emotions in the role, all in a very beautiful and interesting look. Brandon is charismatic as well as in top acting form. The film world resembles a music video by The Cure, dark, melancholic, with interesting camera perspectives. I have been hoping for a high-quality remake the whole time, but I realize that the first images of the new version rather disappoint me. Bill doesn't look as intense as Brandon. Watching the trailer, I feel no emotions. Writing these words, I now realize that the original 1994 movie should have been left as a classic masterpiece without a remake, thus leaving Brandon's farewell and legacy to rest in dignity. The original is simply original.

  • @aaronclick6388

    The original had a mystique to it and to Eric Draven. It really felt like he was something different when he became resurrected. Not sure if we’ll get that feeling from this movie. From the trailer, it doesn’t look like it, but I’m cautiously optimistic.

    I think you hit the nail on the head with the whole being transported to a different world perspective. The original transports you to a city that has its own character, a dirty, dark, and dangerous place where a handful of good people are trying to survive the violence and the hopelessness. It's reminiscent of Dark City, Blade Runner or Seven, where the city itself is an oppressive presence throughout the film. By contrast this remake looks more like a John Wick or Nolan's Batman kind of setting, and to me that means we're not being immersed in the world of The Crow.

    As a point of reference, The Crow is my favorite movie of all time. For 30 years, I've listened to the soundtrack, worn the tshirts, read and re read the graphic novel, and shared my vhs, dvd and soon to be 4K with anyone willing to give it a try!
    It's very safe to say, from the trailer, this movie ain't that movie at all. Like Man of Steel contrasts Superman the Movie, this is it's own thing with a character I've been invested in for decades. It doesn't tarnished the originals legacy, because the loss of Brandon Lee elevates the stories core message that Nothing is Trivial. Live life to it's fullest because tomorrow is not promised.
    This movie feels shallow. I'll still see it regardless. Take care Lee

      The Crow is also my favorite movie, I've never been a fan of the idea of remaking it. But yknow what I get what you're saying. I enjoy Man of Steel and Donners Superman even though they are wildly different interpretations.
      Also, I've met James O'Barr at comic cons and discussed the remake, he seemed OK with it. In fact he's keen on different takes on the Crow. So if he's OK with it.

This movie feels so misguided, I'll still watch it regardless too cus I am still a HUGE Crow fan but my expectations are so damn low.

    • @richardbrown3055
      @richardbrown3055 4 місяці тому +5

      The first lines of the trailer straight up tell you that they do not understand the core basis of the Crow storyline. Eric wasn’t “brilliantly broken”, he and Shelly weren’t messed up in any way. They were both good, kind people, the type of people a girl like Sarah could feel safe around.
      Eric was a musician, and poetic, as can be understood through his dialogue. He was a gentle person, the contrast in who Eric was, to the lengths he goes is what highlights the torment he is experiencing.
      This movie trades beauty for shallow cringe edge, and post modern neo-emo whinging for eloquence.

    This looks perfectly suited for a 'stream and forget' debut. The Crow was a comic, yes. I keep hearing people point that out. I get it, other interpretations can be done. But this is Eric Draven. They made a big mistake by doing that. They could have done something more original with the idea and had it be a completely different character. But they went the generic Hollywood route. This will fall on its face. Brandon Lee is the heart and soul of the The Crow.

    This definitely feels like a supernatural version of John Wick. That would possibly make for a somewhat decent film if it weren't tied to The Crow franchise. But this definitely doesn't feel anything like a Crow film. This is often what happens when a series spends years in developmental hell. It goes through various rewrites, directors, actors and in many cases, studios. The end result is often a mess of a film that was rushed just so they can say they finally completed it.

    I have a ton of shit to say about this dude. I am a HUGE fan of the Crow franchise from the movies to the graphic novel, The Crow and The Crow City of Angels are 2 of the movies I always go back to, especially the original Crow because the movie is very special, the theme, the color, the cinematography and sadly the tragic accident that happened on set resulting in Brandon Lee's death. When I saw the image of Bill Skarsgard in his "Eric Draven look" it just rubbed me the wrong way. It's weird cus during the pre prod they said they wanted to make a faithful adaptation to the Crow graphic novel but they made Eric look like a fucking DmC Dante Leto Joker sound cloud rapper and for some reason people are saying "oh it's cus they want a faithful adaptation" but lemme tell you something, that's definitely not what Eric Draven looked like in the book. He's suppose to look like Iggy Pop with face paint on, very muscular (which they got right I'll give them that), a mullet, no tattoos and the black paint. Another thing to point out that the first 2 Crow movies had a distinct style to them and you can immediately tell what movie it is. This movie just looks like every action movie out today, which is just so wrong cus The Crow is suppose to stand out and be memorable, this movie kinda feels misguided in a way. Even James O Barr (The maker of The Crow Graphic novel) says that it's really unecessary to make a reboot. He's absolutely right because at least for the sequels, it was different people becoming the Crow and not a reimagining of Eric Draven because that's Brandon Lee's character. If this movie just told a different story about another guy turning into the Crow then it would've been a lot better and more respectful to Brandon's legacy.

We still don't know if that's TinTin and his crew and the guy that seems to be in charge is completely different. It won't take the place of the original but I'll give it a watch and probably set in in line between 2 and 4 in the movie series.

    2nd. Meh... This looks like The Crow, John Wick & Death Sentence had a baby. On paper, that sound dope but as a Crow movie?... Nah... This hardy, almost not at all, feels, or looks like a Crow Movie. I feel like they should've just tweaked a couple things, change the name of the movie & let it be its own thing.
    3. The half ass nods to the Original 🙄 like when he's in the Car & hes like we killed you dead! There ain't no coming back! Awesome!
    This version, i killed you.. yeah you did, GTA style 🙄
    Or the "when someone dies...." Line.. so much emotion & sadess in the original. This Version they say it so casual like it's a throw away line🙄
    Doesn't look like a bad movie just... Not a good Crow Movie

      It's not just because of Brandon. To many of us angsty teenagers in the 90's, The Crow embodied our emotions. It was dark, gritty, yet tender and against some pretty bleak odds the message was hopeful. It was also unique, there was nothing like it, and there hasn't been since. It's our little gem, a perfect crystallization of what it meant to be a broody teen back then.

    If this did not have the Eric and Shelly story attached to it and was a Crow movie with different characters it would not be getting the backlash it is. The trailer is cool. Bill Skarsgård is a great actor and this may work as an action revenge movie if it was called something else. It does not feel like a Crow movie. They could dub over the Eric and Shelly names with Mike and Julie and I would not even know that it was retelling the original story. That is how different it looks. The Original was a gothic masterpiece that mystique resonated with many people.
    The Original holds a deep attachment a lot for the fans, especially the ones who were in there mid or early teen's when it was released in theaters. The tragedy that surrounded it from Brandon Lee's death just added to the significance. It shows what might have been a amazing career for Brandon if he had lived. To many, the story and the Eric Draven character are memorials to Brandon Lee and should be treated as such. Using the Eric Draven in this movie disrespects it.
    There are 7 The Crow comic series, all with different main characters and storied. Why use Eric when you have other protagonists to use. Personally I would like to see a female protagonist. That was done in The Crow: Flesh & Blood series with Iris Shaw, who was killed while she was pregnant and came back to avenge herself and unborn child. With other options available, there was no reason to retell Eric and Shelly's story. Unfortunately instead, they tried to bank on nostalgia and name recognition which has only served to piss people off.

    The people comparing this to John Wick didn't read the graphic novel. There was a lot of gun play by Eric Draven. I love the original. But it did lack the sheer amount of violence of the book. And it didn't go in depth into Eric and Shelly's love. The Eric and Shelly moments in this trailer already had more depth and the violence was turned all the way up. The aesthetic of the movie may differ from the original but the grunginess is still there. I'm really looking forward to this.

    Im glad this tries to be its own thing in the sense that if it tried to recreate the first it wouldn't stand a chance. You can't get lightning to strike twice. The original crow will always hit the way it did for those who grew up with it. There is an element involving the social culture of the 90s an ambiance that only those who were there can truly feel. It can't be replicated. So with this modern remake i feel it has a chance to be good just by being its own thing.

I was definitely expecting worse even from the trailer, maybe they gave way too much in this trailer ?? I feel they might’ve just spoiled the possible best parts of the movie. It doesn’t look that bad overall just the design of the crow himself. It definitely looks pretty brutal and action packed but again maybe they gave too much in the trailer? Let’s just wait for this movie to come out and hope it’s gonna be at least decent or watchable not the abomination some of us are expecting. I am partially optimistic about this. We shall see.

This movie might be a decent watch. But since they are calling it the crow and they're using the Eric draven story. This is going to be nails on the chalkboard for me to watch. Going love the pitch meeting video for this movie. Yeah let's make a crow remake , And tell Eric dravens story. Buuuuut. Let's make Eric draven look like a worse version of suicide squad joker. And let's have Eric and Shelly be drug addicts. In the original Eric draven was anti drugs. Hell even helped Darla get clean. And let's remove all the gothic elements. The gothic setting and elements were a character all of their own. And let's take all of the hard rock , Grunge and goth music out. And put in some auto tune remixes. 🤦 This is a crow movie only in name.

In which they did say last year that it's going to be a "Modern retelling" which at first had me worried but cut to now I get the better idea of it.
    I do like it does seem more brutal and the character that says the iconic line from the original I wonder if he's going to be a Skull Cowboy type of character or it could be a human version of him IDK but I would like to see the Skull Cowboy though.

      Read it more than once, this film seems further removed from the graphic novel, which isn't necessarily a bad thing so long as it retains the core themes and essence of it. But the things it looks to have kept from prior versions (aside from the character names) seem to be more of the 1994 film than the graphic novel (namely Eric being a guitarist instead of a mechanic and Shelly and Eric dying because one of them provoked the antagonists in some way, rather than having their car brake down on the wrong roadside at the wrong time.)

If they picked anyone else people wouldn't have a issue but because Lee died, people are losing their shit because as you know, if and when you pass away you mean more credited to your last role and that's facts.

There can never be a continuation for a sequel because the whole point of the movie is that Eric Draven can cross over until he wastes everyone involved in his murder. The song in the trailer is called, “Take what you want” by Post Malone and Travis Scott with guest vocals by Ozzy Osborne. It’s on Spotify. The song arrangement basically tells me what this movie is going to be.

This one, I'm not so sure. I mean good for them to try and take things in a slightly different direction rather than just carbon copy the original, and I do like the styling of Skarsgárd, but unless there's a lot more substance in the movie, then the trailer hasn't really blown me away. However, that being said, I will still go and see this and hopefully, it'll deliver more than what I'm expecting.
