    I loved the Crow, I thought it was awesome, but I was also a kid when I saw it. Nonetheless, differences of opinions are all good.

    That being said, I’m not sure it stands the test of time

    My friend loved the Crow 2 over the original and that blew my mind because I thought the sequel wasn’t great …

      I was a kid too. All my friends loved it. They all wanted to watch it over and over. I found nothing good about it. It always just felt cringe to me.

        If you were a kid when The Crow came out, you are too old to be using “cringe” as an adjective.

        Edit: ITT: people for whom saying “cringe” is very close to their heart

          I’m 45 and have used cringe as an adjective since before most people who do were alive. It’s not a new thing.

            I’m sorry, it was a careless comment and I should have known you would not appreciate it. If I wanted to complain about it I should have done it elsewhere.

      Wife and I accidentally watched the sequel a few months ago, she was surprised I had never heard of the crow and I kinda had difficulty finding it on streaming. Watched the sequel first because it had been 15 years since she’s seen it she thought that was it. Watching both close together I thought the sequel had a better overall story but production, budget and acting were all severely worse but enjoyed both.
