'The Crow' Reboot Back in the Works

Why are the useless projects the ones that always seem to make it out of development hell?  We've reported previously on the Crow reboot and how awful it looked when Bradley Cooper was attached to it, but soon afterwards legal disputes rose between the two studios collaberating on the project. 

The Weinstein Company and Relativity Media sued each other over distribution rights, and for a while it seemed like the project was mercifully dead in the water.  Now, the companies have put their conflicts aside, and now it's back in the production.

This is what we almost ended up with

While Bradley Cooper is no longer involved, which means the awful concept art no longer applies, I still don't see much of a reason to get excited for the project.  The original is a decent movie, but it's a classic example of style over substance, and the style feels outdated by today's standards.  I try to have as much optimism with remakes as possible, but this is just one that I just can't get myself to care about.  Anyone out there disagree with me?
