#so I'm just making that claim based on 1. the soundtrack and 2. how elder goths I know speak about it in the present day

the crow remake stuff makes me like, actually extremely mad for real. like all these remakes and shit are stupid bullshit anyway, but remaking the crow feels very very low to me. GRANTED I'm biased because of what the crow means to me personally, I'm well aware it's not exactly a masterpiece (I say as if any remake we've seen has ever improved upon its source's flaws. like we already know the crow remake is Not going to do that anyway) but the original film is literally such a beautiful time capsule of 90s goth, as well as a time before superhero over-saturation and the marvelification of comic book movies. not to mention most importantly the whole situation with brandon lee and the original film being his legacy. why do we need to replace that film with a "better" modern one? what's the motivation here? making a shallow, aesthetically ruined, cash grab of a film based off the crow isn't just lazy but it's fully disrespectful imo.
