random guy Posted September 30, 2004 Share Posted September 30, 2004 Come off it anti, you know it's going to suck. And it's blasphemy to think of live-actioning akira. Mainly because, what the hell is the point of taking one of the movies credited with bringing Anime to the world, and then take away the thing that made it so popular to the world (the whole animation part). Call me a fan-boy as much as you want, but there has never been a live-action movie based on anime that was good, as far as I know, and there most probably never will be.

Wizard Posted September 30, 2004 Author Share Posted September 30, 2004 Too add to that. These things can make or break a franchise. Especially if it has a cult following. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AntiWinner22 Posted September 30, 2004 Share Posted September 30, 2004 (edited) Come off it anti, you know it's going to suck. And it's blasphemy to think of live-actioning akira. Mainly because, what the hell is the point of taking one of the movies credited with bringing Anime to the world, and then take away the thing that made it so popular to the world (the whole animation part). Call me a fan-boy as much as you want, but there has never been a live-action movie based on anime that was good, as far as I know, and there most probably never will be.Really, I DON'T know that it sucks; it hasn't even started production! That is what I am trying to argue; that really, NONE of us know if it is going to suck. While you may say it sucks in comparison to the original, no matter how good it may be, I am seeing it as a seperate entity, with only a previous anime before it. Sure, history has proven once and again that anime into live-action movies blow chunks, there is always that minute possibility. Minute as it may be, it is still there. Anon. EDIT: I have just realized that I, too, am scared that this movie will suck. I think I ma just posing in denial. But, my point still stands. I HOPE that it will be good. The possibility is there for it to be. Edited September 30, 2004 by AntiWinner22 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
random guy Posted September 30, 2004 Share Posted September 30, 2004 (edited) Maybe, but if I was a bookie, I'd set the odds of it being good at astronomical:1 Edited September 30, 2004 by random guy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skythe Posted September 30, 2004 Share Posted September 30, 2004 And now, i'm agreeing with Skythe (OMG!). If the companies have quality control over the end product, it can be a good movie. Ginax is working with those guys who made LOTR. So the NGE movie could r0x0r us.I saw rough sketches in a Newtype magazine once some months ago. Looked pretty damn good to me.
