Plot Summary: Legend goes that crows ferry the dead across to their resting place. However if the death demands revenge then the crows will assist the avenging souls. On the eve of his wedding, Eric Draven and his fiancee are attacked by criminals, she is viciously assaulted and both are murdered. Draven, once a loving man, returns to the nightmarish city. With the crow as Charon, Draven steps out of the night as a killer instead of a victim. Exploiting his undead ability to heal quickly, he delivers murderous justice with both glee and bitterness to each criminal who snuffed out his life on the brink of happiness.

The crow is by far the best movie i have ever seen. brandon lee id a phenomenal job in this movie. it sucks so incredibly bad that he died. the plot was great and i loved how the crow looked.
The crow-city of angels is an awesome movie also. i thought it was great, not as good as the first one though. but this one did have an excellent plot.
The crow-salvation is the only crow movie i have not seen. my friend russell won't let me watch it because we are both crow fanatics and he says it's a disgrace to the crow name.

i would give crow 3 stars it is a good movie but greatest ever no way. by matter of opinion i would have to say the goonies is the best film ever u can not compare the acting of brandon lee to sean aston(mikey). it is almost laughable:D

[Batmite]

don't be comin 'round here dissin the crow. goonies is a horrible movie. it's barely funny and has a crappy plot. take the goonies somewhere else, they aren't wanted here.

[mxyzptlk]

goonies is such a better movie than the crow i cant not believe u would say such a thing

[Peace Keeper]

:eek: Are you on crack, Batmite? THE GOONIES was hysterical. Try watching it again with your eyes open.

Batmite, trust your friend! I completely agree with you - I consider The Crow to be one of the greatest films ever - one of the few flicks that has ever emotionally moved me. I also loved Crow: City of Angels, but didn't find it quite as good as the first flick. I recently saw Salvation, and it sucked hard. Don't bother wasting your time with it - bad acting, bad script, horrible pacing.

And Goonies is lame!
:p

[Batmite]

right on clayface!:D

I loved the first Crow movie. Not all that fond of the second one--seemed more interested in perversions than plot. The third was, well, forgettable. I've practically forgotten the entire story--and the actor portraying this version of the Crow was so unCrow-like to me. Still loved the birds, tho. Those crows were so cute! Of course, I've owned a crow that could talk (his name was Arioch, after the demon in the Moorcock Elric series of books). Any time I see a crow, I just go all gooey.

As for The Goonies--I dunno, maybe I've always been too old for this one. Didn't interest me, didn't appeal to me, didn't hold my attention. Just a tad too goonie.

The Crow is far superior to Goonies. The Crow was great, dark, involving, and intense. Goonies just wasn't all that great. And I've seen it plenty of times, since we own it.

[mxyzptlk]

the crow has been done so many times just with slight different variations. now the goonies just slaps the crow around. the goonies is one of the greatest films of all time while the crow is a good movie it will be forgotten in a few years but the goonies will always be a classic.;)

[joker]

this is the funniest conversation ive ever seen. you comparing goonies to crow? you dont do that, you just dont do that. thats like comparing a tree to a radio. they are nothing in the same way alike. but they are both good movies. and as for movies being fogotton. they both already have been. the crow came on wgn a few months back and goonies never comes on anything. but both are good movies.

[mxyzptlk]

hey boy watch the wb comercials for summer movie saturdays and you will see an advertisment for the goonies witch means its gonna be on wb this summer. and if a movie comes on wgn that means it has already been forgotten i mean for crying out loud they have red heat on like every other day:D .

Hmmm, your idea of what's a quality network and mine must differ greatly.

By the way, what part of "take the goonies to another thread" did you not understand? ;)

Saw this recently. Awesome! It's beyond sad with Brandon Lee's accident on the set of this movie. He had such a promising career.:(

Why are you comparing The Goonies to The Crow? the goonies is a family film, the crow is not, althought both flicks are awesome in their own way :crying:
