for there was a knock at the door, it was the crow!
 

hhhhhmmm I found some cool news on the crow, im not sure how old this is, but I guess theres going to be a new crow movie called, the crow: wicked prayer, based off of the novel The Crow wicked prayer
http://abahb.crowfans.com/Reviews/No...ckedprayer.jpg
there was word though that they were planning on dropping the the crow and just calling it wicked prayer.
but they dismissed this myth. I have to say I really hope this is going to be good like the 1st movie and not turn out like the last 2, salvation and city of angels.

thats the movie poster.

he. I hope it is really good. Do you know what the book is about?

I think that....crud...what is his name...?....is going to be the star of the movie.

You would THINK if I hung out at ABAHB I would know these things..... :roll: :lol:

Eddie Furlong isn't it?

Im just glad they ditched the Hip Hop crow.
DMX Does not = The crow.

I think so...I may have to check to be sure....or have someone check for me because I feel lazy! :lol:

You're absolutely right. It was better with Vincent Parez playing Ashe....

Ashe.... :goofygri: *melts*

Classic...

I forgot about this for awhile. I can't wait for it. When I see it, I think I may wet myself from excitement. :goofygri:

I wouldn't have minded that too much except for how the story was going to be waaay too much like the theories of Tupac Shakur's death (from what I've read). It seemed like they were just going to make a movie based on all the conspiracy theories that came after Tupac died.

Anyone know what Wicked Prayer's basic story is going to be?

the only thing that sucks right now is there concidering macy gray for a villian part..........

I heard the Crow is female this time. I'll reserve judgement til I see the movie.

Lats I heard Eddie Furlong (Of T2 and American history X fame) is The Crow. That's kind of a horrible idea. Sure, AHX was great, but Eddie Norton was in it. The kid is strung out on a ton of junk. Bad, bad, bad idea. Not as bad as DMX, but still.

There was a book where the Crow was a girl, wasn't that good a book, she like, ran a daycare center and it was blown up, and she came back from dust and teamed up with the black dude from the first movie (The dude from Ghostbusters).

They should get a really good, solid story, maybe have O'Barr write another one, and get someone like Ed Norton in it.

this is whos playing the crow

Yeah, thats Eddie Furlong.

I haven't read that book....maybe I should....

Oh...and the black dude is named Ernie Hudson. He played Officer Albrect.

MAN, I love being a "Crow" fan! :evilgrin:

is this the one, the crow flesh and blood?

I don't think so, the one I read has the greenish cover and ****.

whos the crow? (sorry i must ask after all this time)

"The Crow" is any person cut down in life by the most vile form of injustice, every so often, they will be ressurected to avenge thier deaths before they can be laid to rest, a crow (some sort of guardian spirit) is thier source of power.

It began as a classic comic series, and has spun-off into several novels, movies (including one that cost Brandon Lee his life, and two that suck donkey balls), and even a t.v series "The Crow: Stairway to Heaven"

Which should never have been axed...

What happened to brandon lee?

Theres various ideas to what happened, some to do with the Chinese mafia, which killed his father, Bruce Lee. But most believe it was just bad luck, a mindless crewman left a real bullet in one of the guns, rather than a blank, and it killed Brandon. The scene in which he died IS in the movie, if you get the 2 disc dvd, you can see it frame by frame with a commentary. Tragic.

*bows her head* The world has truly lost two good actors. :cry:


I remember "Stairway to Heaven".....you're absolutely right, Zarius...it should have NEVER been canned. Marc did a fantastic job as Eric.

Yeah I kinda dug Stairway to Heaven, I just didnt like the way his paint Magically appeared when he needed it. But, being a TV series, I can understand why they went that route.

I know...
But still they had to do the makeup somehow... :D

Still Marc can ride a pretty viscious hog.... :P
*is a HUGE Harley fangirl*

Yeah, I thought it was cooled they casted him, me and my bro were both big fans Before he got the role! When we saw him in a Kung-Fu magazine in the crow gear, our jaws dropped.

I'd love to see that picture....*melts at the thought* :goofygri: :D

Ya know, I bet my brother still has that magazine. Next time I Talk to him I'll see if he can scan the article for you :D

*sploosh*

Translation: Thanks!

:tlol:

I guess that was you melting? :lol:

*blows a mushroom cloud of stress from the puddle of water*

Yes.... :lol:

it sucks that brandon was killed durning the film, I didnt really care for stair way to heaven, ive only seen one episode, and it sucked.
but in that show did eric come back from the dead (a 2nd time) or was it a brief peroid of time from when he was brought back the 1st time?

Harsh words from the number one Crow fan here... :(

All Thirteen episodes hardly sucked, maybye you should give it another
cha-..

oh wait, "Brandon Lee is only Crow" right?

Gotcha.

*comes out of her puddle form* That's why I have to say a final Mar sin Leibh to both Bruce and Brandon.

May they both rest in peace.
:tcry:

Id rather not give stair way to heaven anther chance, but I dont think brandon was the only good crow, i just think he perfrected it.
I liked the crow in the 3rd movie, but the one in the 2nd movie only had the look, he just sucked at the role.

Check this out! I found this on ABAHB:

"Set in the American southwest, WICKED PRAYER tells the story of ex-con Jimmy Cuervo and his girlfriend Lily who are murdered by a satanic gang referred to as the "Four Horseman of the Apocalypse", led by Luc Crash & his girlfriend Lola Byrne. Jimmy returns from the afterlife as the "Crow", an immortal vigilante who must come to terms with his new powers and the poisonous temptation of revenge, culminating in an epic battle between the Crow and the devil himself."

Sounds interesting....tell me more...

Characters: Characters/Actors: Jimmy Cuervo (Edward Furlong), Luc Crash (David Boreanaz), Lola Byrne (Tara Reid), El Nino (Dennis Hopper), Lily Ignites The Dawn, (Emmanuelle Chriqui), Harold (Danny Trejo), War (Marcus Chong), & Famine (Tito Ortiz also see his official site), Sheriff Tanner (David Ortiz), Pestilence (Yuji Okumoto), ), Proud Foot Joe (Daymond John), Mechanic's Wife (Rena Owen)& El Nino guard (Macy Gray),Cortez - posse member (Jorge Jimenez)

Director: Lance Mungia


H'mmmm, you might find this interesting....

What kind of guitar does Eric Draven use?

Eric actually is seen playing two different guitars in the movie. Before his death, Eric owned a black Ibanez EX model. This guitar can be seen in the flashback sequence that is shown while Eric is burning the photos of he and Shelly. The guitar that we see Eric take from Gideon’s and later plays on the rooftop is a solid black, six string, standard Fender Stratocaster. Most fans associate the Strat with Eric since he plays it on the rooftop and the Ibenez is only shown once in a flashback. Thanks to Kel for the information on the Ibanez.

*Gasp* David Boreanaz??!?! :o WHOOT!!! :D

what's an abahb?

and is that movie actually being shot or are those people just fantasising?

It's not a thing, it's a name.
ABAHB means A Boy And His Bird. :D

aand what's the name referring to? a title or a website?

its a website, but also what the crow was called by in the first movie by his enemys


oh man wicked prayer sounds pretty cool!

If David Boreanaz is in it...I CAN'T WAIT! :D :tgrin:

Gleh, I'm faaaaar too late.. Thought I'd give my two cents anyway.
I absolutely loathe Stairway to Heaven. It was done just so...wrong. First off, it gets the mythology all weirded out. The crow's supposed to back only to get revenge for his own personal tragedies, not solving other people's problems. In fact, the original reason Eric lost his powers near the end of the first movie was because he was interfearing with the problems of the living by attempting to rescue Sara. Plus I'm not too certain about this, since I didn't see all of the first few episodes (just the first, and a bunch of later episodes,) but I heard that Eric refused to kill Top Dollar's gang because it's "wrong" or he "didn't wanna stoop to their level" or somethin' ridiculous like that. Give me a BREAK. These people raped and killed his fiancee on the eve of their wedding, not to mention shooting him and putting him through a window. I think morality can take a back seat. Besides, killing the people who wronged him is the whole reason he's back in the first place. Then there's the magic make-up... That's just silly. Not much else to say about that. Also the fact that it all takes place in broad daylight is also ridiculous. It just ruins the whole feel of The Crow. And the character of Albrecht was all twisted and screwed around, made him seem more like Torrez than Albrecht. Not to mention the actor that played him was too pencil-neck esque to take Ernie Hudson's place. But of course, it's not without it's good qualities. Marc did a fairly decent job filling in for dear Brandon, as did the girl that played Sara. But that's about where the good qualities end.
Now about this new Crow, people are sayin' good things about it, and I'm anxious to see it, but I'm not goin' to set my standards too high after City of Angels (even though Salvation was quite awesome.) Well, I suppose that's about all I've got to say. Sorry if I regurgitated anything that's already been touched on, I didn't read all the replies.

Yeah, I guess the TV series did kind of suck for those reasons, it's kind of like how they mutilated The Highlander story with the TV series -_-

I just told myself when going in to the TV series that I should keep it seperate from the movie, like an Alternate version of the story. But I definetley agree about the daylight thing. I thought he Killed topdollar in the first episode?

i like "JOHN CONNER" as the crow, but there is a problem. i hope this hits theaters and doesnt just go straight to video.
