Neotokyo9 Neo: "I'm fairly sure that many of you have heard that Akira is supposed to become a live action feature and I want any and all opinions, info, etc. that you may have. I heard that the script calls for Kaneda to be Tetsuo's brother! Believe me, when it finally does come into theatres I am going to be one of the first people in line scrambling for a ticket! To sum up the previous statements this thread is for any of your discussions, info, opinions, etc. pertaining to the live-action feature (may it come very, very soon!)." 3nodding Ugg. Kaneda and tetsuo....*Shudder* Brothers??? NO. stressed Live action??? With todays demographic, it will crapfully more or less focus on fighting, rather than the plot itself. Thank you matrix.... Im kinda scared to watch it. As far as everything else goes. I am ashamed at the scriptwriters talk2hand

S. Kaneda Yeah, making a movie, based on a movie, based on a manga is just a bit redundant. That, and since it's probably going to be based on the MOVIE, it's going to deviate from the original's movie's plot. Which was already incredibly deviated from the manga's plot. In the end, the live-action movie would be nothing like the manga which I know and love. The manga will grow obsolete! Nothing that awesome should ever be allowed to die. Ive always wanted to read the manga.. but.... sooo..... expensive.... crying crying crying crying crying

Daisuke-sempai Yeah, I feel the same way too. They also said there was a Robotech, EVA and DBZ movie in the works from different studios, but almost all have been cut. Mainly due to financial restrictions, fan outcries (DBZ was to be made by Fox, and it would have been horrible) and other various reasons. I think the biggest reason for dropping them now is look how the Comic Book/Video Game adaptions did. Only a few of the movies really took off. Spiderman & Xmen. The Hulk was crap, and The Leauge of Extrodinary Gentlemen wasn't the best either. The one movie that *MIGHT* rejuvinate these projects will be Sin City, which comes out very soon. Its one of the only movies to be directed by the creator, and might turn out to be good. But if you think about it, North America has already seen several movies directed by their Japanese creator. Ringu - The Ring & The Ring 2, Ju-on - The Grudge, and Dark Water(slated for release in North America in a year or two). So its more than possible we could see Japanese directors/creators come to make these movie adaptions. I could see someone like Oshii-san directing a live action movie.

I don't really like DBZ enough as it is...mabye if the aired version was in japanese with english subtitles....maybe...
What really sux about DBZ is that Dragonball GT started in japan in about....1994-1996 and its....2005...10 year difference...

i don't think that it would be the worst thing ever is they made a live action.
i say this because wouldn't make Akira known to those who didn't know of the original anime? then the'll most likely find out about the anime, and maybe it'll bring more fans to anime.

Some of you are right thinking that a live-action movie might not be very good, it is possible, but it's also possible that a live-action movie could be awesome. I'd like if it had some of the scenes that were in the manga but couldn't make in the original movie.
