The first movie is 30 years old at this point and has three or four sequels that are, in all honestly, absolutely fucking awful. If they want to reboot it in a more modern setting for a new audience while distancing themselves from those sequels so they can give the franchise a shot in the arm, more power to them.

This is probably their line of thinking, but they could still make a new film with a new story (based on one of the other comics/novels or something unique) to reboot the franchise. There's no need to try and retell the original film's story.

How old does a movie need to be before it's "okay" to reboot/remake it?

Age has very little to do with it. A film's quality, popularity, and status are much more relevant factors, imo.

Im honestly just stoked that Bill Skarsgaard was casted for the Crow. Hes a phenomenal actor and will 100% do awesome in this role. I think that trailer was great.

In my opinion, any time.

It's a tired answer, but it still holds true... It's a remake, not a replacement.

The original still exists. This potentially being bad doesn't make the original any better or worse.

There's some great movies out there that people love that they probably don't even know they are a remake/retelling of an old story. Clueless, Ocean's 11, Scarface, The Departed.

Shit, even The Wizard of Oz was a remake.

Honestly looks like shit. A reboot no one asked for or wanted.

I think if they leaned into him being driven insane and not returning entirely intact this could've been good. I can see the bones of something interesting, but they went more generic action.

Good idea. Is he normally this abrasive?

I thought the original was a decent 90s action-thriller, but idk if there was anything that I would have considered special about it that I cared if it had a remake or not.

obviously you can't deny that the tragedy behind it didn't have anything to do with its cult classic status, but in the way we haven't retired Joker, I don't think we need to retire any other characters with their own stories to tell.

They could.

But if we're being honest that's all The Crow is to most people. If they don't deliver a goth vigilante movie it would probably disappoint and anger people lol.

At least it's not as bad as trying to reboot Total Recall and RoboCop into PG movies. Not that I expect this to be good either.

Tbh, literally the only thing I know about The Crow is that Brandon Lee died during the filming of it.

Having seen all of the movies and being a fan of the TV series starring Mark Dacascos (the bald bad guy from John Wick 3 & Jimmy Lee in the Double Dragon movie). This seems fine.

Lets be real. It's not some kind of sacred series here. It's The Crow. It's never actually been good, but it's been very fun at times.

#notmycrow
but I'm still probably going to stream it as it looks fun. It just sucks its not an original character in the crow universe which I felt would have made it a stronger film.
