Keeping the legacy of terrible Crow movies alive.
I already watched Suicide Squad once, I don’t wanna see this Joker again
i mean i could have told them it was going to suck based on the trailer, but they don’t consult me. crow was a 90s edgelord-porn. it was only ever decent at best. to reboot it well would take some major deviations and much better writing. the trailer made it obvious it did none of that.
Lol edgelord-porn. You’ve given me new descriptors.
I couldn’t stand even the previews for it in the 90’s…it just looked awful.
I watched the trailer for this earlier, mostly in surprise that the remake actually happened. I had no idea it was finished and ready for release.
Anyway, while you shouldn’t really judge a movie purely by its trailer, what I will say is that a crucial element that makes The Crow (comic and original movie) work so well is that Eric and Shelley are just normal people trying to live normal lives in shitty circumstances. We can see ourselves in them, falling (no pun intended) into a bad situation through no fault of our own.
From what I can tell, in this they’ve made them angsty, drug taking edgelords, because that’s…edgier, I guess. Why should we really give a shit about Eric Wick’s revenge tour when we can’t relate to him in the slightest?
A film that was routinely asked not to be made by fans is shit, suprise.
The Crow worked due to Brandon Lee, his father’s legacy, and being the 90s. It was a collection of events that made an instant cult classic film.
Brandon Lee was also a good actor, and had most of the good lines in the film.
Fans routinely asked that no one make a Blade Runner sequel too. Sometimes fans don’t know what they’re talking about.
BR2049 is shit. A mix of uninspired stuff, nice concept art and fan service, with a bad CGI Rachel.
I love Villeneuve’s work elsewhere, but there he really fucked up.
You are shit. I base this in the fact that you are shit. Please don’t debate this because I will not be able to defend. In closing fuck you and have a nice day.
I completely disagree with it being shit, but your complaints still have some merit. I just think the end product overcomes those flaws by a mile.
I feel blade runner was good. The original was better but fans were excited for the second one.
Background: I only watched the original before watching the sequel.
IMO, the sequel is better.
I felt like it took everything good about the original and improved upon it.
My suspicion is that people who prefer the original are nostalgic for it.
