      @@theevilascotcompany9255 I highly doubt that. The Crow was filmed in 1993 and came out in 1994. The Matrix was filmed in 1998 and came out in 1999. Even if the screenplay was written in 1993, having a star connected to the project that early is very unlikely, as they wouldn't even have had a budget to negotiate Brandon's salary with. It's possible that Brandon read the script, liked it, and agreed to star in return for a percentage of the box office gross, but that happens very rarely in the film industry.
      I just looked it up, and apparently the Wachowskis didn't start shopping the script around until 1994. Since Brandon Lee died in 1993, there's no way he could have been supposed to play Neo. Apparently this is just a rumor that you must have picked up somewhere and mistaken it for fact.

    Fun Fact: This movie played a very huge role in wrestling history (WCW and the WWF Monday Night Wars) in the 90s. A wrestler name Sting portrayed The Crow character all thanks to Scott Hall (RIP Scott Hall) who pitch that idea after seeing this movie and that idea became a huge hit and a huge success in popularity for Sting. Sting’s character was a colorful guy, after the rise of the nWo, Sting felt betrayed by the fans and the WCW wrestlers, even the nWo added fake Sting to throw WCW off. So the real Sting became Crow Sting and Sting had used that gimmick to this very day to his recent retirement.

    Yes, the 2024 Crow movie is a remake, though fans of this movie have been vehemently opposed to remaking it because they feel it's unnecessary and disrespectful to Brandon Lee's memory.
    Lee tragically died while filming The Crow after an on-set accident. His character Eric Draven is initially shot to death, but when they filmed the scene, a casing from one of the blanks (fake bullets) got stuck inside the prop gun. When the next blank was fired, the stuck blank casing shot out with the same speed of an actual bullet, hitting Lee and mortally wounding him. After he died, body doubles and groundbreaking computer effects were used to finish the movie. (One of those body doubles was stuntman Chad Stahelski, who is now best known for directing the John Wick movies.)
    Compounding to the tragedy is the fact that Brandon Lee was the son of martial arts legend Bruce Lee, whom also died suddenly at a young age.

      Thus is incorrect, he was wounded filming the flashback where Funboy shoots him. The actor who played Funboy was so filled with guilt it was years before he could use a gun on screen again. All footage of that scene was turned over to the police for investigation and was subsequently destroyed in accordance to his family's wishes. The scene in the finished film was actually done by his double after reshoots

      Originally, Eric wasn't supposed to go any further than Skank, because nobody else were the direct killers. He wasn't supposed to go after anybody else or else he would have his powers taken by the skeleton cowboy (who was originally the entity who brings him back, like in the comics but they had to cut that character out because there wasn't enough footage available for the scenes with him to complete). They kind of kept to that rule but only by natural consequence.

    Went to see this movie 4 times the opening weekend. Went with 3 groups of friends and my mom and cousin one day. I was so excited to see this and had recorded the trailer on VHS and kept watching it over and over quite a bit. Also, the soundtrack came out before the movie and it had Stone Temple Pilots. Soundtracks for movies back in the day were very important. Not like that anymore. But I wore that CD out. I think I had several of those CDs. As many as I had NIN's "The Downward Spiral" CDs. I used to be a Kleptomaniac back in the day and would steal as many copies of Downward as I could🤣

      Crows are members of the Corvid family. A couple of their characteristics are they are drawn to shiny things, they can live for forty or fifty years and they are well known for holding a grudge against people who hurt them or bother them. Not only will they act against people who make them mad every time they see them but they can get others to share the grudge so that even when they are gone the harassment will continue. Likewise if they befriend you it’s for life. This gives a whole new meaning to using the crow for the emissary between the living and the dead.

    It needs to be said that this performance was so at odds with Brandon Lee's previous work. Most of his films were martial arts-oriented, and his characters tended to have laid-back, comedic personas. What's often lost on first-time viewers is just how much of a switch this was for him, and just how fucking scary he could get.
    I've said it before, and I will say it again: Had Brandon Lee not been killed while filming this, he could have been Neo. With respect to Keanu Reeves, I feel Lee would have leaned much more heavily into the philosophical aspects of The Matrix. Considering his family, he also would have had ample prior experience with the martial arts.

      No, Brandon Lee was shot and killed during the scene when he confronts Funboy and Darla in the hotel room during one of the takes. And because of how much the accident messed him up, Michael Masse took a year off from acting, had nightmares until he died on October 20, 2016, and he also never watched the movie.

      @@sithlordkaeyl21no original comment is correct. It was a flashback funboy scene. Darla wasn’t on set when it happened. And it was one of the last scenes being shot and it was obviously left out of the movie. He only had a couples of days of filming left. Hence why they were able to finish the movie with just using his double for a few scenes. He had already filmed most of it.

    The guy who played The Crow was Brandon Lee the son of legendary Bruce Lee. He died while filming this movie. By a piece of a bullet left in the chamber of a prop gun. The filming was almost complete. It's so sad he was in his 20's he's buried next to his dad in my home state Seattle WA. I love The Crow ❤.

      James O'Barr. The Crow (graphic novel) was his life work, his magnum opus. It's dark. Clive Barker said it was dark, and if Clive Barker says it's dark ... it's *dark* . (FWIW, Barker's exacts words were, "O'Barr's intensity frightens me.")

  • @brianwashines2645
    @brianwashines2645 5 месяцев назад

    This movie and the graphic novel that inspired it were my teenage years. The 1990s were very much about the dark, pessimistic, gritty side of life. "The Crow" and "Se7en" were the quintessential films that encapsulated this sensibility. But I felt that the tragedy surrounding this film helped seal "The Crow" as one of those instances where lightening was caught in a bottle. Each attempt to revisit it as sequels over the years only seemed to prove how superficial and shallow Hollywood could be because they could not understand for the life of them why "The Crow" worked and how difficult it would be to even match its power. A good supernatural action movie, yes, but also an emotional one.
    While the city was never named it was always implied that it was Detroit, Michigan. It was a city once famous for its automobile industry, being nicknamed "Motor City". (Even T-Bird mentions it at one point in the movie.) As time went on, however, this stopped being the case and the city became one of the poorest and most violent over the years. (Another great revenge movie about Detroit that is similar to "The Crow" was "Robocop".) It also reminded me of New York City in the 1970s when it struggled financially and it got so bad people burned down their own buildings for the insurance money. Eric and Shelley were decent people who found themselves in an indecent world that was already destructive because it made terrible people richer. I always interpreted "The Crow" as a higher power trying to bring balance back after so many horrible and violent things kept happening to good people.

    I'm sure someone else has already posted this, but I don't feel like scrolling through all 280+ comments.
    Brandon Lee, who played Eric, was the son of martial arts star Bruce lee. Tragically, Brandon was killed while making this movie. A piece of a prop bullet broke off in the barrel of a gun, and when the gun was later loaded with blanks and fired at him, the force of the blank shot the piece of the prop bullet out of the barrel with almost as much force as a real bullet. It struck him in the chest, killing him.
    At the time, there was debate over whether to even release the film, but it was decided that his death would have been for nothing if the film he was making was never released. They used CGI to put his face on a stand-in for a couple scenes, because the film wasn't quite finished yet.
    The movie is dedicated to Brandon and his fiance Eliza. He was 29.

    First of all, I'd say to setup more accounts like IG, TikTok, Snapchat, Discord, Twitch (maybe you do and I missed it). Then you should make lives sometimes and do some Q&A and talk about your life (without too much details as no one wants you to have an obsessive stalker) but make your public know you a bit better. Maybe once a month, do a personnal request from a patreon subsicriber, I'll let you figure out the details but the hope of you watching a personnal favorite that does not get lots of love maybe can help.
    Just my two cents.
    HELP DASHA AND LIKE ALL HER VIDEOS.

    James O’Barr the man who wrote “The Crow” doesn’t know his own birthday because his mom was drunk and didn’t know what happened. His fiancé was killed by a drunk driver while coming to pick him up from work. He joined the United States Marine Corps; where they made him draw hand books of murders. James planned to kill the drunk driver when he got back home only to find out he was already dead. James wrote this book out of pure pain and suffering. When Brandon Lee could quote the book, James approved the movie, only for his new best friend to die. James said it was his fault until he got to Brandon’s tombstone. He forgave himself and went on to have a wife and kids. This movie is fucking awesome.

I just watched the 30th year anniversary in the theaters. The only reason this movie ever got made was because of Brandon Lee’s passion behind it being made. The remake should not be happening. All we wanted was a new story, not an upd ated version for a m0dErN aUdiEnCe🥴 Only good thing about the second film was it helped give us The Crow Sting back in WCW 96-97….and Deftones being in it for a a few scenes 🤷🏻‍♂️
