I'm afraid to watch The Crow(s), both this version and/or the original. Now that I've confessed to being afraid to watch some movies, I also want to comment on one of the framed posters in Sonny Bunch's YouTube studio background. When Ulzana's Raid was released my mom didn't want to go see it with my dad (he loved shoot-em up westerns) so she suggested he take me, his only son. I was 10 or 11 years old and it was my first R-rated film. The father-son experience was worth a few nights' nightmares and, yes, of course, today it's one of my all time favorites. Sonny must have a story too. Let's hear it.
Ha, not a terribly special story: I read about it in a book, was intrigued and tracked down a DVD, kind of loved it, and then saw a vintage poster for like $30 or some such. Thought it would make a nice addition to my collection. A month or too later, Quentin Tarantino wrote a whole essay for the New Beverly blog about it, which led to a big resurgence in interest.
Always solid wisdom, "Never ascribe to malice what can be explained by incompetence." I'm probably getting that wrong, but, well, that's rather the point.

Y'all's discussoin about the Alien franchise was really good stuff. You get me thinking about movies in a deeper way, which is really fun.
As a big fan of the Robert Harris "Cicero" trilogy, this one (told from the other side) is straight into my veins.
It will have to be truly terrible to keep me out of the movie theater.
