I love The Crow, its always on my list of favourite movies.

If anyone should watch The Crow movies...it HAS to be the first one, all the others pale in comparision, in my eyes.

But yes, I've been a huge fan of this movie for years and years..

It's really bizarre that you made a topic for this now, because I finally got round to watching this for the first time last night! It's always been one of the "classics" I've been meaning to watch, and I'm glad I finally got a chance. I enjoyed it, I thought it was really gritty and dark, and the morbid tone was kept up throughout the movie, but you can totally tell its a 90s movie. Which doesn't mean it's bad at all, just sometimes cheesy in parts. I thought the script could've been better, but Brandon Lee was really good in it.

Definitely glad I finally saw it anyway, I'm gonna read the graphic novel now!

The Crow is such a good movie. Brandon Lee is awesome playing the part, sad at what happened to him. His career was taking off at that point like Heath Ledger. I still need to get this movie on dvd.

Brandon Lee was great not only in The Crow, but in most of his movies.

Its sad that he died on the set because he could be a big movie star. he already was.

@Wynter : This movie is a must-see, so good you saw it I thought Brandon Lee was the best.

I have the other movies too, but i don't watch them alot (People know i'm a collector, so i want everything) mostly i watch the first movie, and the series


The 69 eyes has a song about Brandon Lee, (great band!you should really check them out) and the song is awesome too.

I love The Crow ..the first one !I cannot stand sequels.
First one is simply the best and Brandon did very good job.It is sad he died so early
I remeber I saw The Crow for the first time when I was 10 years old(I did not like
it much then).But then I have seen it maybe 4 years ago again and I am fan

btw.I love that song from The 69 eyes.

this movie is one of my favorites and one of the best out there. It has all things that ring true in life (love, frienship, loyalty).

i liked the crow alot....i still have the poster framed in my room...
the sequels...ehh..city of angels was too much but i did like salvation.
eric malbus did a good job of portraying the crow.

This movie is one of the best I've ever watched in my life! I'm never tired of it and everytime I rewatch it I feel really better, it makes me believe in the power of love and that the truth will always come up!

Brandon Lee is love <3

I also love the "the crow: salvation" with Eric Mabius really well done!

You should give it a try it's really well done and you might like it a lot

I didn't know they were going to remake it
I think that'd be a mistake though it would only be a not go, especially for fans who have loved and still love Brandon so much, that'd be pretty much a slap in the face for them and would ruin Brandon's memory since the movie is dedicated to him and his fiancè IMO

It's on my LoveFilm list so hopefully I'll get to see it some point soon

As for the remake, I'm in two minds about it. The Crow is one of those cult films that has more sentiment and significance attached to it than others, so it seems like it should never be touched, and I respect that, but on the other hand, while I really enjoyed it, I'm not such a HEE-YUGE fan that I hate the idea of a remake, if that makes sense. I'm quite intrigued by what a remake would look like

Aw The Crow Such a classic good movie. I love the music, the actor, and the plot itself.

I do NOT want a remake. theres been enough "sequels" so we do not need a remake.

I will not say i wont watch it if it will happend, i will give it a change, and maybe i will like it. but you can see Hollywood/ other companys run out of ideas, they use old movies to make "new" ones. Friday the 13th, Bloody Valentine etc. I think The crow does not need it.

I remember watching The Crow with my first boyfriend and we were just in awe after watching it. I still enjoy watching it from time to time since I own it. I just don't own it on DVD, just VHS. Its one of those rare movies that touches your soul and never lets go. And I just love Brandon Lee. May he rest in peace and his legacy live on forever...

If they do make a remake I will most likely won't see it. It wouldn't be the same and I just don't like the whole idea of a remake at all. That would just be horrible.

Me and my boyfriend absolutely LOVE this movie. It's sooo amazing. Definitely a classic. It makes me so sad to watch it now with Brandon Lee in the commentary parts on the dvd.. Ugh.. PLEASE GOD NO REMAKES! 3 were enough! City of Angels wasn't that bad, but the rest blew!
