Akira New Movie

[A1-242]

Just found out they are making a movie of Akira, at first i was excited until i found out it is set in Neo-manhattan & stars western actors in all the lead rolls. Now i'm not so happy, i'm not sure it will work it's too Japanese (If that makes sense).

The only thing good about it were rumors that Gary Oldman was going to be in it but now he's not so I'm just going to go see it to see how bad of a train wreck it's going to be.

Do you have any links to articles about this raping remake of Akira?

The only positive i can think of is, if they were to release an Akira game, even if it's crap we'll get to ride THE bike.

Akira the Western movie?

I hope they eventually kill the Westerner who decided that would be a good idea.

That's just the WORST possible idea ever.

That will be all.

Hollywood is incapable of destroying anime. If you mean "Hollywood destroying Hollywood by creating bad anime adaptations", then possibly.

Personally, I'll always have an open mind when it comes to game/anime adaptations.
