I think if I were tasked with converting The Raven to a workable film script, (And the studio wouldn't let me shoot it absolutely straight as a very slow art piece) My first thought would be to make the incident in the poem one of several escalating incidents.
His family tries to help him, but every time he's left alone he broods over Lenore and starts ranting at a bird that might or might not be real.

I'm pretty sure this Kickstarter is unironically using this as the logo for their project to build an AI sign language interpreter.
#monsterdon Oh, NOW it's time for chauvinism.
1970s movie makers loved filming oil and water.

#monsterdon I'm tired of hearing about Acton's "Powers".
Is this stuff anybody can do?
Is he an alien? A wizard?
Are there a lot of people like him? He's just a rando smuggler, right?
#monsterdon "These deadly rays will be your death"
Amazing.
#monsterdon So, is there a reason Acton is still alive? Like a clever twist or something?
No? Ok. I guess "Somehow Acton Survived".
#monsterdon They teach you this in survival training.
Just lay down and sleep in the snow. No need for shelter.
#monsterdon You can tell this is an ice planet, because she's wearing a shirt.
#monsterdon The temperature can't really drop thousand of degrees. There aren't that many degrees.
#monsterdon For all the effort they put into the space-ships earlier in the film, it would have been nice to be able to see the enemy fighters.
#monsterdon Doesn't count as nudity if it's robot boobies.
#monsterdon Her costume got skimpier!
She used to have bands across her midsection!
Did she take them off some of it mid-flight?
#monsterdon It would be neat if the magic trick he was doing had anything to do with what he was saying.
#monsterdon The director clearly subscribed to the "gravitas is when you talk really slowly" school of directing.
#monsterdon They're SO PROUD of these space-ship models.
But after Star Wars and 2001 they're kind of just ok.
#monsterdon This movie so badly wants to be Star Wars.
#monsterdon It sure would have been neat if any of the slaves survived Stella Star's escape.
Like, any of them at all.
She's not worried about it, though.
