    That’s cool I’ve never seen her act in a movie before but I like her music… so nice. I’m hoping the movie turns out well.

    i really wish we had a crow movie with a woman crow. the TV show and the comics had a woman crow before. I'm tired of the same story over and over. I love the crow, and I like a lot of the crow 2 as well. (I love the atmosphere and visuals of the second one.)
    but I wish we had a new crow story. and I wish they did something different. ..

    A female Crow could be a good idea, but not just to have a female Crow to be different. That’s where stupid Hollywood decisions come in where they think that’s all they have to do but keep the same basic premise. As long as it’s unique and interesting.

    There are a lot of things to appreciate about City of Angels, despite it not being a great movie overall. Some striking visuals, emotional moments, and a cool vibe.

    Years and years ago as a fake-angsty teenager, I wrote a story on Fanfiction.Net about a female prostitute who becomes the Crow after a gang kills her and her family.

    I say all that to say, I’ve always wanted to see that for a movie lol.

    "...in this re-imagining has a co-leading role"
    Wasn't Sarah Mohr always the co lead.

    I love that sepia tone that it had (Alien 3 and fight club had it too. a few other movies had that color tone)
    I know the acting is iffy but I really love the sets and I love the outfits everyone wears. I loved Iggy pop. the movie feels like a painting in some ways. I really love the soundtrack.
    I hope this new movie is good, but I really doubt it.

    (it us funny to mention the things I love about the crow 2 because I also love the same things about God's of Egypt lol)

    Sanders is an okay director but I was hoping for someone a bit More inspired who would put real emotion and heart into the movie, which is what The Crow needs IMO.

    Remaking this is so stupid. Just why?
    Money is what drives hollywood more then ever before.

    Your avatar is of Batman Begins, which was the third theatrical live action adaptation/reboot of Batman.

    Of course, money is what drives Hollywood, as it always has. But sometimes, revisiting an existing property or story can be worthwhile.

    I love the original deeply, but there’s definitely still ways you can play with the plot. I mean the whole thing is built around Shelly and she isn’t really even a character. Just kinda there to be dead and for Eric to be sad about. So there’s room for character development at least.

    Not sure on the female lead especially if the role is increased. Has anyone seen her act?

    It looks like a hiring based on looks that might match the aesthetic they're going for.

    FKA Twigs was in Honey Boy. She’s a talented actress, singer, and just all around performer. I wouldn’t jump to assume she got hired just for how she looks.

    This. Maybe I’m just beholden to the original but Eric Draven as a big beefy guy just doesn’t sit right with me.

    Also this. The original comic was a story about a thin, gangly rock star who was in love and was killed by a chance encounter. Its a gothic, love/revenge story, having some beefed up ex-military guy come back from the dead completely misses the point of the story in the first place.

    I just wish we could’ve had Bill under Hardy’s direction. That would’ve been a helluva matchup.
