      I haven't watched it. I don't intend to watch it. I've watched a good few reviews. Which are more or less unanimous. I can at least tell, from the clips, there isn't anything in the "love story," that the original didn't outdo in 5 minutes. I'm sorry, but banging all the time doesn't tantamount to love. That's all it appeared to be. To people with raging hormones. I mean, sure, the clips had no dialog, but in the original the dialog was barely there. However, you could see the tenderness, and affection, and attachment that provokes well, love. Like I said, I haven't seen it, so that puts me into an argument of bias. However, I can see. Also, knowing what happens, as all reviews have confirmed, banging, doing drugs, and on the run sounds more like Bonnie and Clide. It could have just been another Natural Born Killers remake, and probably would have made more sense. Watching these reviews actually made me remember a true story of this teenage girl, who got into goth, and a legal adult guy, amd ended up killing her whole family. That's why I said Natural Born Killers, because he literally worshiped that movie. They could have passed it off, if it was just another franchise piece, but what they did was a travesty to the original. Eric, and Shelley were just a couple in love trying to build their lives together. But these morons made them into basically a couple of criminal delinquent crackheads?! How the hell they thought that was gonna fly is astoundingly bizarre.

      The thing I hate most about modern reboots, way more than the political pandering, the agendas and the hate towards the fans, is the simple fact they NEVER fail to miss the point and themes of the originals.

  • @grantpflum6844
    @grantpflum6844 22 วันที่ผ่านมา +15

    One of the things that makes The Crow so timeless is the story about Erik and Shelly. Both were just regular people. They started at the bottom rung of society, no one thought much of them, they were working they way up, only had each other, and were JUST starting to build their way to a better life together. And the movie established all of this with almost no screen time. It was all show, don't tell. We learn that Erik was the lead of a small time up and coming band, Shelly was looking forward to being a housewife and then it was just all ripped away from them. No warning, nothing they could do, just a random act of violence by a bunch of random thugs. That story, that visceral fear of the every man and woman losing it all for no reason is something that speaks to all of us and the shear visceral rage and grief Erik feels afterwards is something we can all relate to. None of that is in this story. Spoilers ahead:
    In this remake both Erik and Shelly are in a institution for troubled teens (bullshit their almost thirty) and Shelly not only worked for a crime boss but is also sitting on evidence that can bury him so the Al Capone wannabe send a hitman to bump her off and Erik gets caught in the crossfire because he can't stop thinking with his dick. The problem with this whole setup, besides the fact that it ruins the original story and is no longer something that everyone can relate to, is that it at no point explains why Erik and Shelly don't just run to the cops and seek WitSec instead of trying to run off and head from a mob boss on their own. And that is BEFORE you get into the stupidity of the supernatural elements and the demon deals!

      @@nickkoyle3599 Good point. The "Mother is the name of god" line still gives me chills. Not only did Sarah do a really great job driving home the human aspect of Erik, but she also was the one bit of hope to the story. Hope that even the most worthless of people can turn it around for the ones who need them, that love CAN make the difference. I can't help how much of Erik's return was fueled by his need for revenge and how much was his need to protect Sarah. She was the first thing he went looking for. The movie really was a masterclass in "show don't tell".

    The fact that they went ahead with whatever crap they did in the film (not seen this and won't), after James O Barr expressed his annoyance with the changes to the point James has openly called it an abomination by all accounts, is the biggest disrespectful aspect of this. Take the 1994 film out of the equation and it's still disrespectful to the source material. For years I've said to myself "if James gives it his approval, I'll watch a retelling, if he slams it I won't". The fact this story was inspired and partly about his own real life grief and the new writers and crew has done all these changes to his story just pisses me off to no end.

    If it was just another crappy numbered title in the film series, it would just be another City of Angels or Wicked Prayer (yes I liked Salvation, no it’s nothing compared to the original despite my enjoyment).
    Instead it’s a remake in an era where both killing female characters to motivate men is hated, but depicting men being shattered by losing a woman is hated by the opposite extreme.
    And yes the loss of Brandon Lee and the dedication to him is the most egregious part, I just don’t think I can articulate that well enough past this. Nor do I want to use his name to bash an already bad film.

      The opposite side does not have a problem with men being devastated by the loss of their loved female. It's still the feminist who hate that. They consider that toxic masculinity. Conservatives understand men love their wives and their girlfriends and will want revenge if something is done to them. Stop trying to paint both sides with an evil brush when both sides aren't evil.

    Too long establishing Shelly and Eric. I didn't like them much a characters or people. They go back to the same city, and go to a fuckin' night club when they know someone with lots of money and power is trying to kill them. Their deaths are underwhelming and not very brutal at all. Eric doesn't seem as angry or upset and laser focused on vengeance until the end. Some hard smash cuts. Fighting choreography is just ok. No memorable / quotable lines or music. 2 villains stood out - Girl and Old Man. Final confrontation with Big Bad is lack luster. The arrangement of saving their souls .. and bringing the Evil Guy to the dead world limbo.. somehow, and if it was all just a dream with non-crow Eric there at the end and the paramedic, considering that Shelly would have been dead for a long time if the second half of the movie was real.

    I'd like to know your thoughts of the original Crow. It's not the flashiest action movie, but every character is enjoyable to watch. Brandon deserved an award for his performance. I literally can't think of a single scene that doesn't draw you into the story. Anyway, would like to hear your take on the classic film.

    First thing that jumps out to me as wrong vs the Original Crow was how much daylight is in the new version. I watched the Crow when it first came out and now this. The Crow is basically a goth vengeance story. It should be dark and dreary and bleak. This new version was way too bright in many ways.

    Remember when Brandon Lee's Eric Draven felt almost like a force of nature? There was only one big shoot out scene, but for the most of the movie, Eric takes his revenge like a vengeful spirit. Like something supernatural. This is just... Deadpool without humor and style.

    P.S. The Crow is an artist's story made from tragedy that became a film that ended in tragedy; that then was transformed into an early 90s Zeitgeist/Eulogy and a Monument to Brandon Lee and by extension Bruce Lee. You CAN NOT replicate that.They'vee tried many times before and every time they have failed; and they will continue to fail.

    Whoever directed this movie had no clue about the source material. He was probably thinking about it in a less stylistic and more grounded kind of way like Batman Begins not knowing that is the essence of the story.
    It's a a dark and violent fantasy world where a character like this can be believable and exist. It should be like a picture book that comes to life. He is more wraith than human.
    The original comic was a satisfying read even moreso than the original movie. I think in the style of something like Spawn the Animated Series would be the best way to tell the story. If they want to make a movie, it needs that hyper stylization of the world to work or the character will just look like Leto Joker walking around.

    Some of the best scenes in the original are eric reconcting with his friend, him saving sarah and tells her it can't rain all the time, him clearing her mother's morphin addiction to give her a second chance to be a good mother to her daughter, in this movie there's none of that, he is the crow for like 25 minutes

  • @redvitaminblue
    @redvitaminblue 23 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

    Eric was a good dude in the original and the people who killed him and Shelley were complete scumbags, which made the ensuing retribution justified and satisfying. In this remake, EVERONE seems like a tatted-up scumbag, including Eric and Shelley. When there's little discernable difference between the protagonists/antagonists except for the fact that two of the scumbags are hooking up, I couldn't care less who wins. A Crow remake that nullifies this basic principle deserves to fail. Style over substance, yet again.

    As someone who watched the Original Crow multiple times MAN does this movie blow. The music is borderline lifeless as opposed to the haunting tunes or hard rock music of the original, the villains are flat and boring compared to T-Bird and his Party Pals along with Top Dollar, the romance falls flat on it's face with Shelly looking like she's stoned pretty much all the time and unlike Brandon Lee's badass Crow who legit could kick everyone's asses witth casual ease making him even scarier, Bill's Crow is a borderline wuss who constantly gets overrpowered by randos every time he does fight.
    Even the worst Crow Sequel, Wicked Prayer, is better than this crap.

    The main problem with the movie is that there is potential to something great, but the movie failed to explore interesting concepts that are brought up and Eric and Shelly doesn't work. I would've been okay with them having met in a rehab if they had gotten over the addiction and focused on making each other properly heal. But no, they keep using it while they're together and are living in some shit hole until they both are killed. But at least the opera house sequence was awesome

    How hard would it have been to bring massive returns with double the budget?
    It wouldn't have needed tons of CGI.

    I spent money to watch the 2024 one in theaters by myself because no one else wanted to go. I knew it would be awful, I knew it wouldn’t even be able to be anywhere near the original but I HAD to watch it just to prove to myself I was right. And… I did.
    They BASTARDIZED the love story between Eric Draven & Shelly! And they lost more money than they can recover to try to justify what they did. Hollywood needs to take notes: stay the fuck away from our classic films! They’re trying to remake “Labyrinth”, too. I hope it fails.
    I’m extremely biased because I forced myself to learn how to read in order to understand the graphic novel my brother brought home which was “The Crow” by James O’Barr. I was obsessed with as a child & still am to this day. After the 1994 film came out, I couldn’t stop watching it even though there were elements from the graphic novel that were left out.
    The 2024 film, I only needed to see once & that’s coming from someone who LOVES Bill Skarsgårds, FKA Twigs & Danny Hudson. Also, when your main character isn’t as interesting as your villain, there’s a huge problem with the way the story is written & I really wish they hadn’t made the film.
