In the OG Crow, Shelly was fighting tenant eviction for her apartment building, and Top Dolla sent TBirds crew to kill her. Eric's rebirth was not only about his personal revenge, but also the Crows purpose is to punish those who have committed horrible crimes against good people. This movie misses the point, the heart, and the aesthetic that make the Crow what it is.

[@markmathisen3908]

Fully agree. In the original the crow was justice when society's justice failed.

[@caliginousmoira8565]

Karas...

[@ericabouchard8786]

That's not how it went down in the comics, either. It was a random act of violence like what happened to the writer of the comics finance died from... his car broke down, and a group of street thugs killed and brutalized Shelly.. in real life, his fiance was hit by a drunk driver who didn't stop. It's a different telling of a comic book. I'm just saying.

[@thehoot79]

Exactly. Also, despite the fact that you only get about two minutes of their love story, the original did a better job making you believe the characters loved each other than this one did in an hour of trying to do the same thing.

It wasn't eviction, she wouldn't sell or leave the building it was hers if I remember correctly.

Why remake great movies in the first place. There is that Lisa Simpson meme that says: "Instead of remaking great movies, they should remake bad movies that were based on good stories but did not meet expectations." Hollywood is out of ideas. They can only tread down existing paths.

[@SlasherIncorporated]

No, Hollywood is NOT out of ideas. They want money. THAT is why they remake great movies. Nobody cares about the bad ones. But people care about The Crow, and about Friday the 13th, Halloween, A Nightmare on Elm Street, RoboCop, The Mummy, etc. They know that people have an attachment to these properties and will likely flock to see a new film. Hollywood is hoping to bank off of audiences' nostalgia. Sometimes it works (if the remake is actually decent) and other times it doesn't. You should actually blame your fellow movie-goers for it. People don't turn out for the original stuff. If you don't believe me, do some research and look at the numbers. MANY original films that were not part of an already established franchise have bombed. Remakes, reboots, and sequels tend to do much better. Hollywood knows this.

[@Therizinosaurus]

Eragon comes to mind, it had potential but overshadowed by other novel adaptation that was Harry Potter

[@Phoenix2312]

The Running Man was a GREAT FILM... But the book it is based on is FAR BETTER... However, Making an adaptation like the book woudl never work as a movie! It would have to be a big budget TV show... Again, It s a classic that NO ONE SHOULD EVER TRY AND REBOOT! The only one I can think of that came close was TOTAL RECALL... The Remake is far closer to teh actual story that what Verhoven gave us... And if you have read the OG story, It was pleasing to see... Good? Debateable... I mean, I enjoyed it but I would not go out of my way to re-watch it... Where I will always JUMP to watch the OG film! But as an adaptation Yeah, Its a good adaptation as it actually resembles the actual story! Hollywood is not out of ideas... They are just after the cheapest way to fast Profits! Making something even remotely original is always a gamble... We as an audience want what we want and they will try and feed us what we want, what they know will get Money flowing fast!

[@5517-j3q]

One word: money. It’s much easier to market a remake of a great movie and sell tickets, then it is to do so for a bad movie. That’s probably the main motivation to making remakes at all.

[@c2ashman]

@@5517-j3q But the remake of The Crow just disproves your argument. This also counts for Point Break, The Mummy (2017), The Thing, RoboCop, GhostBuster (famales), The Karate Kid, Oldboy, Conan The Barbarian, Psycho etc.

OG Eric wasn't a drug addict. The Crow went after the people pushing drugs and destroying lives. He also tried to help people too, like the little girl.

If they remake bad films, people whine because it's movies that "don't deserve it". If they remake good films, people whine because it's movies that "shouldn't be redone".

You sympathised with him. In new crow he looks so stupid like a Hot Topic crow, why all the tattooes etc.. Even the villians in the original were unique and interesting even though you want them to die. Also you dont need 40 minutes to build the relationship before she dies, in the Crow you got their relationship in the flashbacks. Loved that he fixed the mother by draining the drugs and saying "Mother is god on the voices of children" or similiar to that. An the mother changes. New crow has no soul. Also the chat between crow and the police man, who he takes the memory of the girlfriends final moments. So tragic the character. A very human and tragic story.

Another favorite theory I came across years ago is that the rain was the literal tears of all the lost souls pouring unto the city which is why it was always wet.

I fucking hate when a superhero film TAKES FOREVER to actually get the superhero in the iconic costume. We aren't in the 2000s, where the X-Men wore leather outfits because the comic uniforms are hard to make. We're almost 20 years into the MCU's existence. Embrace the fantastic.

[@NebLleb]

The main reason the X-Men wore leather outfits in the first place was due to how they were hellbent on distancing themselves from the high loads of camp that stunk up the superhero genre. And even then, once the actors complained about how tight the suits were, they gave them a makeover for X-Men 2 which retained the black aesthetic but incorporated more comic-like design elements (notably the big "X" on the chest). And come First Class and especially Days of Future Past, the leather suits were basically no more.

MAYBE (and that’s huge maybe) if they hadn’t whored the Eric and Shelley story out again, and used different names with a different story, it could have been okay. But it’s shit. I hope the copium wears off soon. That’s another thing too, pretentious directors saying “oh it’s a RE-TELLING of the critically acclaimed story and film” I hate that. Whenever I hear that someone is remaking something and they try to act like they can improve upon the already amazing story, you can’t. At all. That’s why the original story is there. Look at the soulless Disney “live action” 3D remakes, it’s people thinking they can improve something that’s already agreed as amazing. You cannot do it, I don’t care who you are.

[@JD92205]

I haven’t seen the 2024 crow, and when I saw the IMDb page before it came out, I knew this movie would be bad. My enjoyment of the original Crow made me search out the original Graphic Novel. The difference between the original Crow movie and the graphic novel is noticeable. In the graphic novel, there is a train and a horse tangled in barbed wire, so I wonder if the writers for the 2024 crow skimmed the graphic novel and decided to include themes or elements without understanding the context. And when most of your audience that will see the movie only has an original movie for reference, it won’t work well. The graphic novel and the movie were an outlet for James O’barr to put all his pain, hurt, and loss into, and you can feel that. If you have the chance to read the graphic novel, do. It is a very emotional and powerful story

[@eduardopena5893]

Yeah, it came on cable for free one night and I saw the list of actors in it. Furlong, Dennis Hopper, the dude that played Angel, Tara Reid, and Tito Ortiz. I was like, "Huh, well, they got some names in it, it can't be too bad." Boy was I wrong. It was the biggest load of crap I think I've ever seen, aside from Attack of the Killer Donuts. They ran a Crow series on cable that was way better than any of the Crow movies that followed the original.

[@eduardopena5893]

@Cuban-Jo I wasn't expecting anything out of Tito Ortiz who is almost as well known for his flubs in interviews and promos as he is his MMA record. The guy who played Angel was actually pretty good in that series, but everyone was horrible in that movie. Some famous Tito Ortiz comments: Being asked about being 41 and fighting, "I'm a mature old.." "I want to outlive my children, no question, without a doubt."

I think I was one of the millions of people who took one look at the photos that were dropped online last year showing Skarsgard in "crow" makeup and went, "Oh, hell no." This isn't my 90's nostalgia talking. The original really was lightning in a bottle. It was mostly faithful to the comics (go buy the graphic novel), involved the writer, had amazing set design and color palettes, had a great cast... and sadly had Brandon Lee's best performance in anything. Before The Crow, he was mostly cast as side characters or leads in B movies. This was his breakout role. It even tried to include more things from the comics, but ultimately cut them for pacing and time reasons. It was a gem. And don't even get me started on the soundtrack omg. The only good thing to come out of the sequels was one good soundtrack in City of Angels (was that the name? I've tried to put it out of my mind). This new rendition looks so bad.
