Pathetic So much for remorse

Death means nothing if we can make money

Is Hutchins widower a producer?

Too each their own but I swear to God I would wince everytime I picked up a gun onset... I do not understand how you can just finish the movie after that... Although I did read the husband of the deceased is a producer in the movie now... This world is wild.

It’s a shame the Oscar’s don’t have a category for most ironic film, they’d surely win it

As it should, and the movie should be dedicated to Halyna.

I think it is in bad taste to go on with this movie

Bloopers/Outtakes will be interesting.

Not surprising. The Crow was a massive hit, and they lost their star to on-set negligence.
