Cowboy Bebop Live Action Series
Quote:
Loved the series, not sure how I feel about a live action iteration, though Sunset, Inc. could be a good start. Think a Samurai Champloo live action would transition much better, and maaaaaaaaaaaaaybe they'll follow suit if this goes well. |

No idea what that is but sounds like a hog dressed as John Wayne.
So fuck yeah, I already love it. |

Feel like Bebop works because it's anime.

Exactly this. The "spin" I guess is that it is supposed to be an "American" version, so it'll be some Westworld-ish shit just without the existential overtones and more action. Still say Champloo could be done easier and probably turn out better for an anime going to live action. Kinda hated the Ghost in the Shell movie too, despite loving the series. |

I fucking loooooooooooove Cowboy Bebop. This seems largely unnecessary.

I'll probably czech it out b/c I loved the anime, but it just feels like it is going to be worse than something Uwe Boll would do.

I can't wait for them to do a live action Akira as well, "just because"

Yeah Pokemon isn't critically acclaimed for its revolutionary animation

So is this just going to mainly be a retelling of the original story?
Good they have the series creators helping out but little worried about how the original ending gets handled or if that gets ditched for something else assuming its a retelling. |

I like Killjoys over on Syfy. It's pretty much this except there's no dog. And sometime's is the long season plot arc instead of the weekly bounty.
Don't see why this is necessary except that Anime is all the rage right now with Ghost in the Shell hitting the big screen and Death Note going to Netflix in August. |

first off, I sincerely doubt any live action adaptation could ever do Bebop justice.
They can just fuck right off if Ed and Ein aren't in this. Fuck this whole idea if Yoko Kanno isn't involved Matter of fact just don't bother. Try Samurai Champloo might translate easier. Last edited by KIRA; 06-14-2017 at 09:32 PM. |

Akira would work as a big budget cgi film. Don't even change the voice acting.

I have to admit I would be mildly intrigued at how much nightmare fuel in the final act they could produce with today's CGI

Akira doesn't need to be molested in any way by any remake treatments. The anniversary re-dub was quite enough, thank you. |
