First reactions for The Crow trailer are bleak but I remain hopeful
The film is out this June

澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:The first trailer for The Crow is out – and reactions arꦚe very, very mixed.
In the trailer, Eric Draven (Bill Skarsgard) and Shelly Webster (FKA Twigs) are reimagined as criminals – and its their criminal background that ul🐈timately gets them killed (rather than a home invasion in the film or a roadside attack-turned-fatal in the graphic novel).
The trailer does not look like a remake of the original, but more of a new story loosely based on the same elements from both the original film and the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:gut-ꦺwrenchin🌠g graphic novel by James O'Barr. As a fan of both, I have high hopes for a bꦚrand new Crow story, as it has the potential to reignite interest in O'Barr's severely underrated and breathtaking work – and breathe new life into Brandon Lee's legacy. Other fans, however, don't seem to 🅺be convinced.
"This definitely feels like The Crow for the John Wick Generation and, well, we're living in the John Wick Generation. So I suppose that's appr🅘opriate for a ✅2024 take on the material. But there's definitely a certain... aura... that I'm not really feeling from this so far," .
, "It’s also yet ano💦ther trailer that gives way t෴oo much away. I feel like I watched the whole movie."
Some fans commented that the trailer lacks a coherent vibe and atmosphere - something that the original did very wel🔯l.
"Worst thing about the 2024 traꩵiler is that it simply *looks* like a product of its pop culture environment, whereas The C♉row 1994 influenced an entire generation of filmmakers. There would be no The Matrix without Alex Proyas's The Crow," .

"The Crow 2024 trailer abandons the atmospher🐟e and grit of the origina🍬l and replaces it with uninspired clarity. James O’Barr doesn’t want this adaptation and I don’t think I do either," .
"I'm not feeling it at all. Just feels like a basic Sony superhero movie, the gothic atmosphere is pre🅰tty vital to The Crow," . "This looks like any given basic studio comi🍒c film."
Others said they would've preferred if the film was marketed as a fifth installment in The Crow franchise, 💛🐷rather than a reimagining of the first film.
"I think it actually looks good, as a movie. Just not a fan of thaဣt look, in general," . "My main beef is that, other than a🎐 loose variation of the plot, it doesn’t resemble the OBarr material at all. I would’ve liked to see this as The Crow part 5 rather than a reboot of Eric Draven."
Some. fans, however, were a bit more optimistic.
"Not gonna lie I think it lookꩵs good! I love the vibe of it. But not topping the OG, hopefully it can stand as its own thing," .
"Th🌱e Crow remake trailer didn&rs൩quo;t hype me up but still I will be seated," .
"The Crow remake doesn't ♛look terrible, but based on the (generally positive) test screening leaks, this trailer is primarily scenes from the third act. It's not really an action-focused movie," .
"I just saw the tra﷽iler to The Crow and I am interested in the movie. Sure it’s not like 🤪the original but it is its own depiction. Can’t wait for when it comes out," .
The Crow hits theaters on June 7, 2024. For more, I think new fans and old should 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:give The Crow reboot a chance, or, check out our list of the most exciting 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:upcoming movies in 2024 and beyond.
