Why is everyone so against a remake?

As already stated, Brandon is Eric draven. He is the crow and the movie is indeed a lasting tribute and memorial.

This "remake", reboot, reimagining, whatever you want to call it should never be made, it's a horrible idea and insult to Brandon, and an obvious cash grab. It will bomb horribly and I'll never watch it.

The Crow is one of my fav films and for me i think no one else can be as good as Brandon lee in playing Eric Draven .

Welcome back to Pure Recaps. The Crow reboot has generated quite a lot of controversy, especially with the original film's director, Alex Proyas. The reboot is being helmed by the Ghost in the Shell (2017) director Rupert Sanders. It and Barbarian star Bill Skarsgård is playing the lead role of Eric Draven, a musician who comes back to life in order to avenge his own death, as well as that of his fiancée.

Wonder Woman star Danny Huston has joined the cast of Rupert Sanders' adaptation of The Crow graphic novel alongside Bill Skarsgård and FKA Twigs. The upcoming film is a remake of the 1994 cult classic film that starred Brandon Lee. Sanders' adaptation of The Crow entered production after a complicated development history.

First and foremost the soundtrack would suck if made today. The music of the time played a big part in setting the tone of the film.

Also the sequels were all terrible so what hope would a remake have.
