wagner Posted February 12, 2010 Report Share Posted February 12, 2010 This will either be epic or GI Joe level fail. Akira is a top 3 Anime so we shall see... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Melanie Posted February 12, 2010 Report Share Posted February 12, 2010 I would see it. I love Akira and all other good anime/manga. Cant wait to find out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sol740 Posted February 12, 2010 Report Share Posted February 12, 2010 Leave Akira alone god damn it. I can't wait for the corporate whitewash that's going to happen when they americanize this script. Neo-New York ? Leo Cap as Kaneda ? I bet they call him Kenny, and what of Tetsuo ? Played by Shia Labeouf and we'll call him Tom Seward. I hope everyone responsible dies in a terrible fire and the script is lost forever. Yes, I'm a huge fan ... my name is Sol740 for christs sake. Yes the manga makes a million times more sense, I don't care. The movie is still a classic for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dude if they try to americanize this I think we personally should hand out rape chokes and throat punches to those involved. That is why I am glad the live action Evangelion has not happend yet.

If they ever have a Robotech live action I will audition for the role of Rick Hunter. I could pull it off, maybe they could make Megan Fox my Minmay....
