Nobody is gonna walk into your house and steal/delete your copy of the original crow (which isn't as good as you remember). A remake can't ruin a series unless the series is shit already, which the crow series is. So a remake can't harm it.

Thats what you think, last week Michael Bay broke down my door and used the ribbon from my Transformers G1 tapes to floss his ass provocatively in front of my parrot. Now my parrot won’t stop screaming “I don’t hate women, just bitches” and “it isn’t a slur if your slur it” while disregarding his own canonical events.

The Crow isn't a series, it's one good movie and then something else.

Have rewatched both The Crow and IT and they still hold up, sure a bit dated but overall good movies.

Skarsgårds, not so much

Agreed. A remake does nothing to the original, they both exist. You can choose to ignore one if you want. A new version of a film doesn't somehow invade your memories and makes you feel different about the original.
