:p DBZ live already exists ( chinese movie ), and there's another one in preparation. there's already a lot of anime turned to live movies, and quite a few being done/planed. you just don't know about it ;)

<-=really big NGE fan :D.

I hope its good. Though one wonders how they are gonna fit all the episodes etc into a probably 2 hour movie. They just better make sure they don't ruin it or anything.

Gundam had a live-action movie as well.

There was a Koutetsu Tenshi Kurumi live action series done too, really scary from what I know of it. Real actors in tight maid-suits fighting giant robots!? :blah:

This, I predict will suck beyond all belief, but it will be absolutely gorgeous while doing it. You can't go wrong with WETA, but you can certainly go wrong with the source material.

why did you even bother posting about that? the result was so easy easy to predict, when I saw your name as last poster, I knew what I'd read :p
Anyway, I thought what you didn't like was the technic? ther will be no 1 minute still plan in the movie, you can be sure of that :p

Well, I was agreeing with other that the movie will suck. Live action remakes of anime almost always do. I don't like the direction or the post production on Evangelion at all. I DO, however, like the design sense put into the EVAs. Gainax did a good job on that stuff (even if they screwed up on the angels). I DO look forward to seeing WETAs work on the film, even if I am not looking forward to having to put up with what will likely be crap.

So, why did I reply? Maybe to back you up on what you said about WETA up there? Or maybe to express that WETA will do a good job?

Dude, I don't have to like the source material to appreciate good work on the part of WETA. I though that Frighteners was one of the worst movies ever, but the VFX work was awesome. Quit being so defensive. :p

well with gainax along for the ride, some originality might be there too.. or, they might just contain the entire series into a movie length timeslot(see LOTR times)

Well, well, well.  I was wondering how long it'd take before they worked up the nerve to try this.  And hopefully it won't be another Godzilla...

Also odd, you'd think they'd have director, cast, etc. listed before they started preproduction sketches.

I'll give them the benefit of the doubt (for the time being), and say that the movie has potential, but knowing how things have to be so dumbed-down for the average jack off the street, it's prolly not going to live up to the anime's reputation.  However, if they took the TV series, and adapted it into a string of movies, then they've got the potential to ease the weak-minded masses into this epic, and then take off running with them...

Hell, if they're gonna try this, maybe they should try making a few live-action Robotech movies.  At least there's enough space in its plotline (I think, anyways) to have a few little side-stories that wouldn't affect the rest of the series.

Hey, I remember that mission... is that the Spider angel? I only remember one of them being set in a proper non-levelled city.
