15 Things I learned from The Crow: City of Angels


Just a few things I took away from the viewing experience:

1. In "The Crow" universe bakeries will keep making fresh bread late into the night.
2. When someone is resurrected they can levitate out of and above their watery grave but need to climb up a dock to get out of the water.
3. When children hear gunshots they ask what that sound was and quickly run towards it without a care in the world.
4. If you are "The Crow", as you get dressed into leather you will hear whipping sounds with each article of clothing you put on.
5. Once someone applies paint to your face you turn from a bewildered person with memory loss into a crazed, joking madman with vengeance on the mind.
6. If a crow flies by a palm tree, the tree will spontaneously combust.
7. The same leather jacket that made whipping sounds as it was being put on earlier does not make any whipping sounds when it is actually being used to whip someone.
8. Dogs enjoy dressing up for the "Day of the Dead".
9. Self-proclaimed atheists like to visit the local church.
10. Only gifted artists can paint with the canvas upside-down.
11. One power that comes with being "The Crow" is the ability to taste a random red substance to find out if it is paint or blood.
12. Iggy Pop's mouth doubles as a Slot Machine.
13. Word has it you can attract Crows with bird seed and not dead carcasses.
14. During the "Day of the Dead" celebration onlookers will cheer as a man is lynched and whipped right in the middle of the street.
15. The Crow's best memories of him and his son are of them playing around together in garbage and sewage.

I get the point of these threads so Im not trying to be a jerk but in reguards to 1. I dont recall seeing the bakery but bakeries often open around 4am so they can have food ready by 6am. Its also possible their business sees a sharp increase in relation to the celebration of Dia De Las Muertas or Day of the Dead.

2. Was a big wtf moment for me too.

3. I think he thought it was fireworks and was hoping to see them.

4. I thought it was cheesy too made me think of the Batman bat suit nipples LOL.

5. It seems sudden but from what Ive read online Miramax rushed production and scrapped a lot of the scenes that would have bridged the film better making it all flow more naturally.

6. Maybe its a demon crow who farts methane powered flames from his arse hahaha

7. When the leather is that big and heavy its more like getting hit with a 2x4.

8. Not sure if they enjoy it but maybe he just gave up on getting the mask off. You know how silly pet owners can be.

9. I missed the part about him being an atheist, though given his circumstances I can see him being atheist and still wanting some kind of closure.

10. I get your point but I think she was painting upside down because most of it was already finished and didnt want to ruin her work by laying on it.

11. Not really a power more of a sense of taste. Blood tends to taste irony or coppery. Paint would deffinately taste chemically.

12. Yeah but wheres the lever to pull? LOL

13. I think crows are scavengers and will eat whatever they can get their beaks on.

14. I think they were all partiers who thought it part of a show.

15. If this is referencing the last scene of him and his son, I think they were supposed to be crossing the river styx to the afterlife.

Ill ad

16. Of all the criminals Ashe comes across the first one Spidermonkey, who is himself all hopped up on drugs recognizes Ashe immediatly, then proceeds to run around in a drug induced stupor.

17. When going to see live nude girls ALWAYS remember to put in 2 coins so you have enough time to finish, or youll be finished.

18. When undead man has a memory induced seizure DO NOT make any attempts to kill him, instead reconsider and attempt to leave just as hes coming out of it.

19. The man who makes money from selling drugs cant afford a shirt.

Im sure theres more here I just cant think of any just now lol good post though.




When men stop seeing movies because theres a "hot chick", movies will focus once again on story.

20. Miramax loves to *beep* up good movies

21. Life is just a dream on the way to death.

22. Sarah likes to have really strange dreams.

23. Sarah can't drive worth a *beep* I guess that's what happens when you follow a crow around

24. Ashe did not give a *beep* about Danny, he just wanted to get out of the water.

25. You can fall in love with someone after only knowing them for a few hours.
