I write this latest entry into our blog, not with encouraging news about the status of our company (there is a bunch!), nor about the excitement of finishing older projects and the promise of new ones on the horizon.

No, I write this on a negative note. With the news that the CROW is being remade by the hack who directed the LEAGUE OF EXTRAORDINARY GENTLEMEN, no less. Look, I am not the "anti-remake" guy. I think you can, at times, improve upon an original. But, i draw the line here. Not just because the first movie is near perfect. Not because, in many ways, my push to movies came from that flick. And not because I think that a CROW movie shot in a "realistic and documentary style" is a bad way to go. All of the previous are true and honestly, will result in box office disaster for the reboot.

Now, I wouldn't mind a sequel to the flick with a new edge to it. The nature of the CROW allows you to do that without paying attention to the story line(s) before. I think the death of Brandon Lee is enough reason to stop any remake of THE CROW. it seems disrespectful, to say the least. I'm hoping that it will be a new movie altogether, as opposed to a reboot. But, industry trends say: people are digging reboots. And some producer who has never seen THE CROW will push it.

I'm just glad I'm not the only one who feels this way:
