the story line sounded kinda fun.

well at least flair told the truth about rls, just horrible picture don't even know how to describe it. lines, blending like crazy on colors and people and that sorth of thing. something for a colector.

I never seen this movie but its been 8 years since it came out, so why do u want the workprint?

Posted by frenetic on 08-11-2004 05:01 AM:

mmm trying to get a hold of a sample, anyone know how much effect the extra footage has on the movie? i never really liked the original.. this might be fun though

[EDIT: got ahold of a sample - this looks like ASS - no joke, i don't think i've seen worse quality. i'd say 3/4/8 - get it if you want the extra scenes :X otherwise don't even click any reference to it]

because its one of the most controversial movies ever made due to the entire mystique surrounding brandon lee's death on april fools day, an electrician fusing his eyes shut in a freak accident, some on-set technician going crazy and running through a few of the sets. i think this is awesome, assuming the added footage wasn't included on the DVD nor is planned for a future anniversay/special edition DVD release.

like they said, its for the collectors - and this particular movie has a rather large cult following... i can remember watching this in the theatre. it had a GREAT soundtrack, as well. timeless movie.

edit: [sorry pho... I just viewed the sample for the hell of it, im sure many people will be after this] but, man its soo easy to get your hands on these workprints from older movies (hackers, braveheart, the mask, ect...), just google it ive had this and many others for a while, their are tons of websites devoted to the trading of these vhs tapes, of workprints, rare letterboxed versions, ect... dont personally believe its warented but hey... whatever floats your boat

anyways nice try flair... not gonna pick this up though
edit 2x: i dont see how the guys post below mine about my political opinions has shit to do with the release? Im waiting for an edit on that....

I'll pass on this rls .. seen the movie and it was good, but i personally could care less about some extra minutes!

Posted by PSX23 on 08-11-2004 10:37 AM:

If they could have got hold of a decent copy then i`d be impressed. As it stands this ones really poor.

Um.. I thought this rls was a joke, but alas the Joke is on US.. thanx but I'll stick with my DVD Dir Cut with a signed Copy by James Barr.. I got at the DragonCon last yr.. that comes with a previous unavailable commentary track...that was ripped from the Universal Retail DVD.. Movie Ownz..this Rip..Useless.. thanx, but i think im gonna have to pass on this one

Posted by BlingBling.dk on 08-11-2004 12:26 PM:

Dont like the crow.

Actualy it was first ment as a TV movie, but then when brandon died, while filming a action scene, they taught. Hey, lets use this as a media stunt, and air it in cinemas.

Personal oppinion:
Crappy acting, flat and predictable storyline. Chessy special effects.

But lot´s of people like this one, so i think this rls is great for the collectors.

i wonder if the additional scenes is going to be in the unrated directors cut of this movie thats going into us theatres soon...
if so then kind of a waste but if not something all collectors of old movies would apreciate

people that just wake up in the morning open vcdq and just comment on a release like this cuz of it being old ect and not even looking at a sample atleast before commenting should be shot

Posted by pHo on 08-11-2004 12:33 PM:

and as usual another thread full of people who haven't seen the release. read the new rules, this is for feedback ONLY. keep your opinions to yourselves.

i'll give you to the end of the day to edit your posts, or i'll delete your accounts. because i'm sick of these forums turning into bullshit. nobody cares what you think.

edit.....you are too cool.

anyhow, this is what i would enjoy, i dont have time to run around and trade workprint movie tapes with other bunch of movie dorks like myself, so this was huge, thanks flair.

video = 5
audio = 6

movie = x if you have seen this movie, many times, then it doesnt matter what the fuck this looks like, cause the point is to see all the new shit, yes it helps when it looks good, but who cares, it was free and i wanted to see the new shit

as for the moron that said that this was a tv movie set till the brandon lee died, you are misinformed greatly, this movie was set to debut no matter what, in fact after brandon died, it almost killed this movies chances of going to the theater cause they werent sure if they could finish it, or if they wanted to. with help of cgi and money from the publisher this was done, thank goodness. The director said the death was so brutal on camera that he instantly cut that part of the film and burned it, so no one would make money off of something so tragic..too bad the same fate didnt follow for Crow 2 which was able to hit theaters from Rob Zombie directing it, and Crow 3 went sTV....anyhow. with all that said, i hope this was fun to watch for most as it was for me.

Posted by Sal Paradise on 08-11-2004 03:20 PM:

4/6 - as already stated on this board and in the info, for completists only, but a nice find anyway.

"nice try flair" uhhhh right. Hopefully Flair will send you an email before their next release, you know, to see if you " personally believe its warented". Idiot.

Anyways, the video quality of this isnt very good (looks like a SMR conversion of an Realplayer conversion of a vcd scr, heh) but the sound is at least decent. Sucks about the missing audio/effects but way cool of Flair to put this out as it is OBVIOUSLY something fans of the movie will enjoy - going to watch this tonight.

Posted by EViL-EWoK on 08-11-2004 06:07 PM:

wow soo much for a fucking old workprint.
fuck what they say flair
i love this shit, its crap qual but who cares.

6/7/6

interesting to watch, I never really liked the original. The flow of the workprint is better then the original I think.

But thats what I think, dont cop this shit.
