tbh, Seeing them close to each other made me go "huh, i wonder what Brandon Lee as the Joker wouldve been like. we could actually see a half decent Joker v Batman fight."
It's more like a soft reboot, restarting the franchise while still technically being a sequel. And then there's the new Star Wars, which are so much remakes in denial, that it isn't even funny
Watched it for the first time today... knew nothing about it, only that Brandon Lee died during the filming of this movie. I LOVE this movie. It's incredible.
The casting choices were also perfect. I have no doubt that Brandon's career would've been amazing. He is definitely missed. I'm just a half hour drive away from Lake View Cemetery, where he is buried alongside his father. If you haven't been to Seattle, Washington, to visit their graves, it's an experience that you won't forget.
I've always wondered, how in the hell did the Academy Awards miss Brandon Lee's performance for Best Actor? How has the AFI not inducted The Crow into their Greatest movies or Greatest Thrills of all time list? Why has the AFI not inducted Eric Draven as one of the Greatest American movie heroes of all time list?
+campbellsoup93 they referenced he 1st park by saying "that 1st park was legit".. somewhat acknowledging the 2nd movie happened.. the 3rd (which is my favorite) i dont think was counted in that reference. so i see Jurassic World as a sequel
Heavy Octillery it is a sequel I agree. I said that in my post. However, it was made to bring back the franchise and start it anew, so while it is a sequel, it is also a reboot. Just like my example above of superman returns, and just like the new star wars movie, and the prequel trilogy before it were made to reboot the star war series.
Man I been watching you for a long time lol. I'm watching the crow on paramount plus and wondering how this reboot is gonna be and then I had to head back in time to see a good ol jeremy jahns review. Really amazing to see how this channel grew and how you are still the same in so many ways which is a rarity these days. Cheers mate
Your the man dude and I cant say it enough. You nail it right on the head every time and I thank you for sayin from the bottom of my heart they should just leave the movie alone. No remake. No reboot. Some things just need to remain sacred and this movie is one indeed they should never touch. Its disrespectful and just plain ridiculous especially because it still holds and stands the test of time. Also how are you going to mess with a film that an amazing actor like Brandon Lee died during? Its meaningful to him and his legacy he left behind and touching this movie in anyway is just like you said, ruining it and its not broken. If hollywood does try to mess with this movie I fully believe that this is what karma is all about. Its almost like desecrating a church. Just leave it rest in peace.
The new movie isn't a "remake" of this movie, it's a separate adaptation of the comic. Remakes are when they are based on a motion picture produced earlier and an original screenplay not based on any existing source martial as The Departed is a true remake. A re-adaptation means a separate adaptation of a book, comic or novella and is not related to the earlier film that the earlier film was based on like say every Dracula film, Batman Begins, Dredd, The Thing etc. all separate adaptations of existing source material
Its still the same character from the same graphic novel with the same story. Its sacred and doesn't matter which view you take on it to the respect of Brandon Lee let it rest.
Bruce Lee You seen Cobra i see. Let me educate you the difference between remakes, reboots and adaptations. Whenever someone makes a movie based on the novel Moby Dick is not "remaking" John Huston's film, They're making a new film based on the same literary source material. That's what the upcoming new Crow movie is, not a remake of the 1994 film but rather a new adaptation of the original source material. To me, the definition of a remake is when it's based on a motion picture produced earlier and it's original screenplay (one that is not based on any existing sourcer material like comics, novellas and books) like say The Blob, A Nightmare on Elm Street, The Hills Have Eyes etc. TRUE remakes in every sense. It would be like saying every Dracula film is a "remake" of the 1931 film or the silent classic Nosferatu, NO they are all separate and different adaptation of the same source material. Another example is the films Last Man on Earth, Omega Man and I Am Legend which are all separate and completely different adaptations of the original source material which have nothing to do with each other. Same goes for Nolan's Batman Trilogy which aren't remakes of the earlier Batman films while The Dark Knight is a sequel to Batman Begins while not a remake of 89's Batman because of Joker and stuff as it's a completely different story with a different Joker as i consider Nolan's trilogy to be a separate adaptation of the comics and graphic novels. Calling a new film based on an old comic previously film or a new film based on a novel filmed before a remake cheapens it a bit, when like i said they are separate adaptations. There is a difference between a remake and an adaptation. Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, The Thing, Stephen King's The Shining, Lord of the Rings, Dredd, Dracula, Frankenstein, The Omega Man/I Am Legend, The Dark Knight Trilogy,Romeo and Juliet, A Christmas Carol, Amazing Spider-Man, Let Me In, the upcoming IT 2 part movies, War of the Worlds,Casino Royale, the upcoming Crow film etc. are adaptations of source material being books, novellas and comics. Including being separate adaptations. Night of the Living Dead, The Fog, Halloween, Maniac, Hills Have eyes, A nightmare on Elm Street, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, House on Haunted Hill, Ocean's 11, King Kong, Father of the Bride, The Nutty Professor, Ocean's 11, Thomas Crown Affair, Manchaurian Candidate, Angels in the Outfield, The Fog etc. those are remakes in every sense of the word. Now for reboot. DEFINITION*: verb - to restart (a computer) by loading the operating system; boot again. noun - an act or instance of restarting a computer. This word, as the definition indicates, is a computer term and had no meaning prior to the advent of PCs in the home and at work. The term was hijacked by the motion picture industry in 2005 with Batman Begins. With four prior movies produced by Warner Bros., the last of which was an unmitigated disaster, the studio wanted everyone to know that this film was something new and unrelated to the previous series. It’s no secret that a movie series will sometimes ignore a movie that bombed and just move on with the series as if that embarrassing entry never happened, so WB could have done that with Christopher Nolan’s film. That wouldn’t exactly work, though, because Nolan wanted to tell the origins of Batman, something that had not been done successfully with any of the previous movies; his take would then be a prequel except for the fact that he wanted to include the Joker in his own sequel, thereby nullifying Tim Burton’s Batman. This discontinuity would confuse the audience-how could there be two Jokers, especially with completely different origins and behaviors? Simple, this was a new series that had nothing to do with the previous films. But it wasn’t a remake because, while based on the same source material, it told a completely different story. They needed a new way of explaining what they were doing-hence the cribbing from the computer world. Nolan's films are a separate adaptation as well besides franchise reboot. Audiences bought it. They understood that the series was being “rebooted,” meaning that the old was being erased and a new “operating system” was being written in its place. The old series still existed, but this was a different take on the Batman mythology. The problem was that since the word “reboot” worked in this case, people began adopting it to refer to every instance of a new version of a known product. Now, every remake , adaptation and sequel is called a reboot. Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance is made by other people because the first one was deemed a bad movie, let’s call it a reboot to distance itself from the original! New versions of old horror movies are made and are dubbed “reboots,” even though they tell the same story as the original movies, though perhaps elaborating the story. Even though Halloween, Friday the 13th, and Nightmare on Elm Street all spawned multiple sequels, their “reboots” retold their origins. Guess what? Those are remakes. You can argue that the recent versions started the series over again, but unlike Batman Begins, they don’t do a completely different take on the material. Hell even Escape from New York and Poltergeist new movies are called "reboots" they are remakes and some call the upcoming 2 part IT a "reboot", nope it's another adaptation. True reboots are: Casino Royale since it truly started the series from scratch, adapting the first James Bond book Ian Flemming wrote (the only time the book was accurately adapted for the big screen), and ignored everything that came before (though Judi Dench reprising her role as M was confusing in this context). It's also a separate adaptation of the book and a direct one, not a remake of the 1967 film. The Amazing Spider-man did the Batman Begins route and ignoring an established series and telling another origin story as if it’s in an alternate universe. Rise of the Planet of the Apes due to the fact that it tells the origins of how the apes took over out world but in a completely different manner than the movie it closely emulates, Conquest of the Planet of the Apes. Star Trek is another example as it reboots the series back to basics in an alternate universe. “Reboot” is a term that is not only incorrectly attributed to the wrong type of movies, but it is overused. It’s now jumped ship to other types of entertainment. Rather than use it as a catch-all for any adaptation, we need to return to using the correct terminologies
This is the most perfect movie ever about justified violence. Given the opportunity we would all do exactly the same if what was done to him was done to us. So other than the fantasy aspect it's not ridiculous at all.
I fucking love the themes of this movie, and the comic it's from. I loved the comic. One thing many people seem to forget about this movie is that it is primarily a love story with action in it. The orchestral score is beautiful and very touching. Yes the action is great but I really love the aspect of WHY Eric is doing what he's doing. It's a great love story.
Love when he makes a Jurassic Park reference, I've been wanting him to review it for a while. But now that it's getting re-released in 3D I guess I have to wait for months. Review the Indiana Jones movies!
Can't believe they've been talking about a Crow Reboot for so long and here it is and it is as bad as we feared! But we'll always have this masterpiece!
@Jeremy oh if I had serious money I would toss it your way if only to see your 2019 self or 2020 self look back on the film again to see what if anything has changed.... shame I did not come to the channel for 5 or 6 years later. Fun you did this.... hope one day you start a Jeremy revisits section.. may this be one of the firsts.
Man I hate those coincidences where the actors who played great characters similar to one another like The Crow and The Joker both die in suspicious circumstances at a young age. RIP Brandon Lee and Heath Ledger. You are missed.
Wow. I was just about to make a reference in regards to Ledger's Joker look so much like Lee's Draven, and totally agree with you about their untimely death.
youre right,the only scene shot in the daytime is the very brief seen where darla is making breakfast for sarah,and its an indoor scene so you really dont see much sunlight anyway
The original film is truly a masterpiece, and it still works 20 years later. It would be awesome if Shout Factory would issue a special edition Blu-Ray, with the extras originally announced for the 2011 release. A bunch of new stuff was going to be done, but Lionsgate cancelled it at the last minute. =(
My favorite movie The Crow my favorite music track on the movie was the cure love that song sorry to say this but no one will be Eric but only Brandon Lee or maybe that guy that did Queen of the Damned the lead vampire actor well that guy that did Queen of the Damned movie will be a good Crow he has resemblance to Brandon I could picture him with makeup on.
i was just catching up with your dawn of the dead review when i saw this review at the side and i was thinking i dont remember seeing that and then you said that awesome line- "it cant rain all the time"
Holy shit Jeremy this is why I watch your videos man I was going through the classics and I saw the crow and I was like HOLYSHIT you reviewed the crow. The crow for me is the best dark movie out there 100 percent agree with your statement on this movie! I subscribed long ago and now I am so glad I did you know good movies when you them
Great Crow review! Classic movie review requests: Office Space, Happy Gilmore, Billy Madison, Napoleon Dynamite, Smokey & The Bandit and Every Which Way But Loose.
Love The Crow, Love Brandon Lee(R.I.P. man) Loved your review cannot wait for your review of The Walking Dead, but I will watch the show first for sure so I hope it isn't a dissapointment (which I completely doubt it will be) and I hope you will make an awesome review of it and love that show as much as I definately hopefully will.
@JeremyJahns plz review some Uwe Boll classics.And by classics I mean Crapssics.I wana see what you think of House of the Dead and Bloodrayne,but more importantly Alone in the Dark.I swear you will make my day if you review one of them.
i am an avid crow fan. its a movie that i remember watching as a kid and loved it just as much then as i do now. only movies i love more are the dark knight trilogy. so i ask this of you jeremy, PLEASE review the crow: city of angels and completely rip into it for me!
Hay dude, love your reviews, you crack me up. Not sure if you did this one already and if you have I hevent seen it but none the less you should totaly review "Back to the Future". Total classics, love those movies, love to here your take. I mean I'm almost 30 and I can dam well promiss you that when the hover board hits the shelves I'll be the first idiot to spend an insane amount of on one and probably break my neck...haha
Many speculate it is actually a hit (like Bruce Lee's untimely death), he died before the film was finished so some parts of the film had shakey cams and dark lighting. The gun used to shoot Brandon Lee was not a prop like everyone in the production thought. How a loaded gun got mixed into the prop ones while filming a film full of shooting is a controversy.
@JeremyJahns Hey Jeremy, so what do you think about the Crow reboot with Bradley Cooper? Pictures of it have been up online for a while now. Also, I totally agree that Jurassic Park does Not need a reboot, but what do you think of the talk for the new one? It's really indecisive as to whether it's a reboot or a sequel, from what I've heard.
Tell me Mr Jahns; what's your opinion on the news that Tom Hiddleston AKA Loki from Thor; is in talks for the new Crow reboot/remake/reimagning/new take/re-telling of The Crow? I don't think I'm the only subscriber thats wondering if your gonna post something on that.
Rebooting the Crow would hurt my soul. Brandon Lee gave his final performance on this one and it should be left alone. You're right. This film did a really good job of transcending vengeful anger to show the true tragedy of their deaths, something the sequels never managed to do(the Crow2 is second to Jeepers Creepers on my worst ever list....well, that I was duped into seeing)
Its funny how the recent news of the reboot got me to go back and watch this film again and I hadn't seen it in a WHILE, but man does it hold up well. Brandon Lee is awesome, the look and atmosphere is awesome, the soundtrack is fucking awesome, this film is pure awesomeness.
Jeremy, you have to start reveiwing classic movies again. Such as indiana jones, ghost busters, just some great classic movies you get requested to review a lot
Hey Jeremy) I've been a fan of yours for quite a while now, but now I actually have an answer for the question in the end; Have you seen The Kingdom Of Heaven? It's a pretty epic movie with lots of great actors etc etc, it would be cool to see a review on it. Good luck, man, keep it up, we love your stuff.
just out of curiousity because i know you had a childhood (or at least i hope so) do you think you'll review animated/family movies? again just curious
i have to admit i kind of agree even though i havent read the comics i was thinking that if heath ledger wasnt the joker and brandon lee was still alive he couldve been a badass joker and he did remind me of it when watching the crow
The black crowes the rock n roll band made a video where the lead singer cris Robinson paints his face like the crow and the song is called conspiracy came out around the same time idk
Brandon Lee's Crow = Heath Ledger's Joker
I think it should be the other way around
ɷ I Haveeee Watched This Moviee Leakedddd Version Here : - t.co/e6QlTccFx6
+VERTIGO GAMES the crow came before dark night so Brandon lee goes firs
tbh, Seeing them close to each other made me go "huh, i wonder what Brandon Lee as the Joker wouldve been like. we could actually see a half decent Joker v Batman fight."
@Elijah Espinoza Brandon Lee´s Crow > Heath Ledger´s Joker
The Crow is possibly my favorite movie of all time.
My favorite
I'm just wondering is the movie really cursed???
It's one of my many
"... it'd be like rebooting Jurassic Park, I mean why would you do that?"
Limubi1 🤣
Oh boy lol
Yeah, about that Jurassic Park reboot... Yeah...
TheMarionick Shit made me die laughing when he said that, knowing what we know now
Sequel to the reboot now
It’s not a reboot since it’s a continuation of the story
It's more like a soft reboot, restarting the franchise while still technically being a sequel.
And then there's the new Star Wars, which are so much remakes in denial, that it isn't even funny
About the crow reboot
Huge fan of Brandon lee and bruce. Gone too soon. Will forever be missed. R.i.p
(T_T) Brandon Lee, you will be missed....
Coming back to this after watching Jeremy just reviewed The Crow 2024 Trailer
"I have something to give you. I don't want it any more...Thirty hours of pain all at once, all for you!!"
Watched it for the first time today... knew nothing about it, only that Brandon Lee died during the filming of this movie.
I LOVE this movie. It's incredible.
The casting choices were also perfect. I have no doubt that Brandon's career would've been amazing. He is definitely missed. I'm just a half hour drive away from Lake View Cemetery, where he is buried alongside his father. If you haven't been to Seattle, Washington, to visit their graves, it's an experience that you won't forget.
Yeah he would have Great Career I think he would of been a better choice for Neo then Keanu such a shame
Apparently he was cast as neo for the matrix imagine going from the crow into matrix this man would’ve been on fire 🔥
*My favourite movie.*
"It can't rain all the time..."
while it rains through the entire movie
One of my all time favorite movies & brandon lee was so hot
Holly Roxy great to see I'm not alone in ogling brandon
Alyssa Brown Holly Roxy Same.... *flustered and turns away while petting a stuffie*
I'm so lonely! * 3 *
same it's my go to movie
+Holly Roxy I met him on set, we were extras, he was very cool and really nice. We were young, so sad when he died.
The very first Jeremy Jahns review I ever watched. Subsribed ever since.
The Crow: approved by God.
yep
Resurrected by God
R.I.P Brandon lee
*FIRE IT UP! FIRE IT UP!*
This review is actually a classic in its own right. A classic review of Jeremy Jahns, about a classic movie *mind blown
This comment is now a classic in its own right
I've always wondered, how in the hell did the Academy Awards miss Brandon Lee's performance for Best Actor? How has the AFI not inducted The Crow into their Greatest movies or Greatest Thrills of all time list? Why has the AFI not inducted Eric Draven as one of the Greatest American movie heroes of all time list?
Sometimes the law is inevitable with its corrupt structure and one must shame it by acting out justice, I love the Punisher and Crow
who's watchin this in 2015 when Jurrasic park got a reboot
Michael Velazquez I don't know if you know this, but it's a sequel
But it was made to reboot the series, so it is in fact both a reboot, and a sequel. Like superman returns.
+campbellsoup93 they referenced he 1st park by saying "that 1st park was legit".. somewhat acknowledging the 2nd movie happened.. the 3rd (which is my favorite) i dont think was counted in that reference.
so i see Jurassic World as a sequel
Heavy Octillery it is a sequel I agree. I said that in my post. However, it was made to bring back the franchise and start it anew, so while it is a sequel, it is also a reboot. Just like my example above of superman returns, and just like the new star wars movie, and the prequel trilogy before it were made to reboot the star war series.
um... yeah
GOD LOVES THE CROW
I don't think I could ever get tired of this movie. Classic!
I have the special edition version right here at home!
i consider this movie to be one of the greatest movies ever made and its my personal favorite movie ever
Even as a kid, this movie is and will always be my favorite film.
"It be like rebooting Jurassic Park." Love that foreshadowing lol
Man I been watching you for a long time lol. I'm watching the crow on paramount plus and wondering how this reboot is gonna be and then I had to head back in time to see a good ol jeremy jahns review. Really amazing to see how this channel grew and how you are still the same in so many ways which is a rarity these days. Cheers mate
Easily one of my top movies of all time. I remember seeing it in the theater.
Jeremy: "Thanks Big Man!"
God: "Love The Crow!"
XD Haha, you're awesome!!
Good to know someone gives this movie justice, thanks man!
Your the man dude and I cant say it enough. You nail it right on the head every time and I thank you for sayin from the bottom of my heart they should just leave the movie alone. No remake. No reboot. Some things just need to remain sacred and this movie is one indeed they should never touch. Its disrespectful and just plain ridiculous especially because it still holds and stands the test of time.

The new movie isn't a "remake" of this movie, it's a separate adaptation of the comic.

A re-adaptation means a separate adaptation of a book, comic or novella and is not related to the earlier film that the earlier film was based on like say every Dracula film, Batman Begins, Dredd, The Thing etc. all separate adaptations of existing source material
Its still the same character from the same graphic novel with the same story. Its sacred and doesn't matter which view you take on it to the respect of Brandon Lee let it rest.
Bruce Lee
I bet you think Nolan's Batman movies are "remakes" of Tim Burton's movies or Man of Steel "remake" of Superman 1978.
***** i bet you think i give a fuck what you think Marion Cobretti
Bruce Lee
You seen Cobra i see.
Let me educate you the difference between remakes, reboots and adaptations.
Whenever someone makes a movie based on the novel Moby Dick is not "remaking" John Huston's film, They're making a new film based on the same literary source material. That's what the upcoming new Crow movie is, not a remake of the 1994 film but rather a new adaptation of the original source material.
To me, the definition of a remake is when it's based on a motion picture produced earlier and it's original screenplay (one that is not based on any existing sourcer material like comics, novellas and books) like say The Blob, A Nightmare on Elm Street, The Hills Have Eyes etc. TRUE remakes in every sense.
It would be like saying every Dracula film is a "remake" of the 1931 film or the silent classic Nosferatu, NO they are all separate and different adaptation of the same source material. Another example is the films Last Man on Earth, Omega Man and I Am Legend which are all separate and completely different adaptations of the original source material which have nothing to do with each other. Same goes for Nolan's Batman Trilogy which aren't remakes of the earlier Batman films while The Dark Knight is a sequel to Batman Begins while not a remake of 89's Batman because of Joker and stuff as it's a completely different story with a different Joker as i consider Nolan's trilogy to be a separate adaptation of the comics and graphic novels. Calling a new film based on an old comic previously film or a new film based on a novel filmed before a remake cheapens it a bit, when like i said they are separate adaptations.
There is a difference between a remake and an adaptation.
Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, The Thing, Stephen King's The Shining, Lord of the Rings, Dredd, Dracula, Frankenstein, The Omega Man/I Am Legend, The Dark Knight Trilogy,Romeo and Juliet, A Christmas Carol, Amazing Spider-Man, Let Me In, the upcoming IT 2 part movies, War of the Worlds,Casino Royale, the upcoming Crow film etc. are adaptations of source material being books, novellas and comics. Including being separate adaptations.
Night of the Living Dead, The Fog, Halloween, Maniac, Hills Have eyes, A nightmare on Elm Street, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, House on Haunted Hill, Ocean's 11, King Kong, Father of the Bride, The Nutty Professor, Ocean's 11, Thomas Crown Affair, Manchaurian Candidate, Angels in the Outfield, The Fog etc. those are remakes in every sense of the word.
Now for reboot.
DEFINITION*:
verb - to restart (a computer) by loading the operating system; boot again.
noun - an act or instance of restarting a computer.
This word, as the definition indicates, is a computer term and had no meaning prior to the advent of PCs in the home and at work. The term was hijacked by the motion picture industry in 2005 with Batman Begins. With four prior movies produced by Warner Bros., the last of which was an unmitigated disaster, the studio wanted everyone to know that this film was something new and unrelated to the previous series.

13 years later and all our feats became true... can't wait to see your review of the incoming one
I didnt know you review this on my birthday last year!!!! Jeremy you are the man...one of my all time favorite movies
I didn't MIND the Crow Salvation with Eric Mabius. The least worst of the sequels.
The city of angels is okay. But wicked prayer is a no
R.I.P. Barandon Lee
Stars the amazing ex-actor Whose name I was...named...after.....he passed WAY too soon. (R.I.P. Brandon Lee)
This is the most perfect movie ever about justified violence. Given the opportunity we would all do exactly the same if what was done to him was done to us. So other than the fantasy aspect it's not ridiculous at all.
This movie was and is amazing. It truly is a classic. It's sad we never got to see what Brandon Lee would've done with his career.
I fucking love the themes of this movie, and the comic it's from. I loved the comic. One thing many people seem to forget about this movie is that it is primarily a love story with action in it. The orchestral score is beautiful and very touching. Yes the action is great but I really love the aspect of WHY Eric is doing what he's doing. It's a great love story.
Jeremy your awesome! In all your reviews your personality seems so natural and fluid, you kick ass!
Love when he makes a Jurassic Park reference, I've been wanting him to review it for a while. But now that it's getting re-released in 3D I guess I have to wait for months. Review the Indiana Jones movies!
Can't believe they've been talking about a Crow Reboot for so long and here it is and it is as bad as we feared!
But we'll always have this masterpiece!
Jeremy is such a BABY in this Crow review, but I had to come and find the original review after seeing the reboot trailer.
love this review and a lot of your other classic reviews. you have to do more
my favorite movie of all time
The Crow; Fight Club; Pulp Fiction; Se7en = 100% masterpiece rating IMMORTAL RATING!
@Jeremy oh if I had serious money I would toss it your way if only to see your 2019 self or 2020 self look back on the film again to see what if anything has changed.... shame I did not come to the channel for 5 or 6 years later. Fun you did this.... hope one day you start a Jeremy revisits section.. may this be one of the firsts.
its nice to see how far you have come in your reviews.
Man I hate those coincidences where the actors who played great characters similar to one another like The Crow and The Joker both die in suspicious circumstances at a young age. RIP Brandon Lee and Heath Ledger. You are missed.
Wow. I was just about to make a reference in regards to Ledger's Joker look so much like Lee's Draven, and totally agree with you about their untimely death.
youre right,the only scene shot in the daytime is the very brief seen where darla is making breakfast for sarah,and its an indoor scene so you really dont see much sunlight anyway
Really underrated flick, personally one of my favorite comic book films.
The original film is truly a masterpiece, and it still works 20 years later. It would be awesome if Shout Factory would issue a special edition Blu-Ray, with the extras originally announced for the 2011 release. A bunch of new stuff was going to be done, but Lionsgate cancelled it at the last minute. =(
My favorite movie The Crow my favorite music track on the movie was the cure love that song sorry to say this but no one will be Eric but only Brandon Lee or maybe that guy that did Queen of the Damned the lead vampire actor well that guy that did Queen of the Damned movie will be a good Crow he has resemblance to Brandon I could picture him with makeup on.
This movie should not have a remake. The crow is a beautiful movie and Brandon died while making it I feel like it’s disrespectful to remake it
Wow Jeremy your videos and delivery has really changed in 3 years.
thx JJ! have a happy Halloween!
"No need to reboot Jurassic Park" BOOM! Jurassic World...
Not a reboot
revival
Kinda the same thing...
no
+Facundo Gamero No, it's not. For it to be a reboot, all previous existing continuity has to be retconned first.
i own the first crow on dvd, and it's definitley one of my favorites. I've never seen the sequels and i intend to keep it that way
Please review Halloween this year! I'd love to hear your thoughts on it. That review would be awesometacular
i was just catching up with your dawn of the dead review when i saw this review at the side and i was thinking i dont remember seeing that and then you said that awesome line- "it cant rain all the time"
You need to do a re-review sometime for this Jeremy.
Holy shit Jeremy this is why I watch your videos man I was going through the classics and I saw the crow and I was like HOLYSHIT you reviewed the crow. The crow for me is the best dark movie out there 100 percent agree with your statement on this movie! I subscribed long ago and now I am so glad I did you know good movies when you them
having the Cure do the main song for this film just made it even more awesome.
@TOOVOOT yupp
Do Shawshank Redemption, or the Princess Bride, or Pan's Labyrinth, or the Departed, some of my favorites movies ever
I remember watching this exactly one year ago. Damn time flies
Great Crow review! Classic movie review requests: Office Space, Happy Gilmore, Billy Madison, Napoleon Dynamite, Smokey & The Bandit and Every Which Way But Loose.
Love The Crow, Love Brandon Lee(R.I.P. man) Loved your review cannot wait for your review of The Walking Dead, but I will watch the show first for sure so I hope it isn't a dissapointment (which I completely doubt it will be) and I hope you will make an awesome review of it and love that show as much as I definately hopefully will.
@JeremyJahns plz review some Uwe Boll classics.And by classics I mean Crapssics.I wana see what you think of House of the Dead and Bloodrayne,but more importantly Alone in the Dark.I swear you will make my day if you review one of them.
Great review, but to me a bit to short. Also it is worth mentioning Erics allies more, cause after all they make him so much likeable.
A classic, with The Cures Burn playing throughout the film Is one of those rare films that cannot be rebooted like Tron and others.
The Crow is my favorite movie
i am an avid crow fan. its a movie that i remember watching as a kid and loved it just as much then as i do now. only movies i love more are the dark knight trilogy. so i ask this of you jeremy, PLEASE review the crow: city of angels and completely rip into it for me!
Hay dude, love your reviews, you crack me up. Not sure if you did this one already and if you have I hevent seen it but none the less you should totaly review "Back to the Future". Total classics, love those movies, love to here your take. I mean I'm almost 30 and I can dam well promiss you that when the hover board hits the shelves I'll be the first idiot to spend an insane amount of on one and probably break my neck...haha
Brandon lee died doing that film from a gun accident i think. It's kinda ironic..
Many speculate it is actually a hit (like Bruce Lee's untimely death), he died before the film was finished so some parts of the film had shakey cams and dark lighting. The gun used to shoot Brandon Lee was not a prop like everyone in the production thought. How a loaded gun got mixed into the prop ones while filming a film full of shooting is a controversy.
The soundtrack alone is worth AWESOMETACULAR! Back when music was great.
@JeremyJahns Hey Jeremy, so what do you think about the Crow reboot with Bradley Cooper? Pictures of it have been up online for a while now. Also, I totally agree that Jurassic Park does Not need a reboot, but what do you think of the talk for the new one? It's really indecisive as to whether it's a reboot or a sequel, from what I've heard.
Dude this is awesome you review something short and funny and acurate as hell
The Crow is one movie franchise Id love to see come back. There were many different crows, lends itself to may different stories.
could you do some more game reviews, your civ 5 review was awesome and really funny. may i suggest halo reash or mortal kombat when it comes out.
Please, Jeremy, more classic movies reviews! ;)
Tell me Mr Jahns; what's your opinion on the news that Tom Hiddleston AKA Loki from Thor; is in talks for the new Crow reboot/remake/reimagning/new take/re-telling of The Crow?
I don't think I'm the only subscriber thats wondering if your gonna post something on that.
My dad knows Alex Proyas, the director of 'the Crow' :D. They went to school together and were friends :).
Rebooting the Crow would hurt my soul. Brandon Lee gave his final performance on this one and it should be left alone. You're right. This film did a really good job of transcending vengeful anger to show the true tragedy of their deaths, something the sequels never managed to do(the Crow2 is second to Jeepers Creepers on my worst ever list....well, that I was duped into seeing)
Thank you for doing it on Devil's Night. Much appreciated
please review the exorcist 1973. please.. really love your oppinion on classic movies
Can you review Dark City? It was also directed by Alex Proyas, who directed this movie.
Its funny how the recent news of the reboot got me to go back and watch this film again and I hadn't seen it in a WHILE, but man does it hold up well. Brandon Lee is awesome, the look and atmosphere is awesome, the soundtrack is fucking awesome, this film is pure awesomeness.
Jeremy, you have to start reveiwing classic movies again. Such as indiana jones, ghost busters, just some great classic movies you get requested to review a lot
Crazy how far the outro music has come
Did yo see the TV series? I remember I watched few episodes as a kid and liked it so it might be worth to watch for a fan of The Crow
Please review "Halloween"! I would love to see your take on the movie. Hopefully when halloween roles around you will :)
Hey Jeremy)
I've been a fan of yours for quite a while now, but now I actually have an answer for the question in the end; Have you seen The Kingdom Of Heaven?
It's a pretty epic movie with lots of great actors etc etc, it would be cool to see a review on it.
Good luck, man, keep it up, we love your stuff.
just out of curiousity
because i know you had a childhood (or at least i hope so)
do you think you'll review animated/family movies?
again just curious
i have to admit i kind of agree even though i havent read the comics i was thinking that if heath ledger wasnt the joker and brandon lee was still alive he couldve been a badass joker and he did remind me of it when watching the crow
The black crowes the rock n roll band made a video where the lead singer cris Robinson paints his face like the crow and the song is called conspiracy came out around the same time idk
Thanks for reminding me, I have to DVR "The Walking Dead" today, the zombies look just awesome, I hope it has a good storyline too.
What about Die Hard with a vengance?(I already recommended the first).
BTW, I am waiting the walking death too.
The Crow just became my new favorite movie the other day :) such an amazing revenge story!
you know i saw this movie once, couldn't get into it but this review makes me wanna watch it again, should i?
I just watched The Crow for the first time. Eric reminded me of Heath Ledger's Joker and the WCW/TNA wrestler Sting
