NINJA SCROLL... They're going after Ninja Scroll now... At least Leo DiCaprio has some sense about him, he says they won't make anything until they're satisfied with the script. Oh and they'd like to cast SMAP in there. I'm actually not too worried about this one, DiCaprio's done some good work.

Been a long time since I watched Ninja Scroll... Years.

I'm trying to remember if it had anything in the way of a deep plot, or if it was just primarily an action-film type. From what I remember it was pretty much a straight action-film, without alot of deep character development.

I'd think it would be fairly difficult (note: not impossible. I'm sure someone could) to screw up the plot or characters.

They actual are in the right ratio but anime doesn't transfer to real life well in a lot of ways.

Sooo... according to Sankaku, which got it from a Japanese movie blog thing (I think, Google translate fails me), Akira goes to Hollywood is dead in the water! There are still some things which are sacred in the world!

tbh very few anime/games adaptations to live action are good at all, the worst adaptation l ever seen was Bloodrayne The Movie, it wasn't an epic fail, it was LEGENDARY FAIL !

Keeanu is going to make Spike into the same character he plays in every single movie he's in. HE'S ALWAYS THE SAME GUY.
Call me Zero.
Welcome the rich man. He's hard for you to miss.
His butt keeps getting bigger, so there's plenty there to kiss.
