I can see no scenario in which this produces any sort of interesting new material. Additionally, it may probably create an influx of filthy secondaries.

This only works for properties with built-in fanbases, like Naruto. Narutards will consume anything Naruto-related regardless of what it is. If they made Naruto colonoscopy kits they'd fly off the shelves.

Capeshit is part of American culture. The grand majority of anime won't become mainstream because it's just not compatible with progressive Western values. If they change too much material the fans will complain. If they keep it as is the normalfags will complain. They got nothing.

>Keit-Ai by Hollywood.

A boy (Chris Pratt) falls in love with a girl (Jennifer Lawrence).

Unable to ask her to prom, he is gifted by a random man(Morgan Freeman) with the girl's phone number. Never minding the strange area code, he immediately calls her, and is overjoyed to find out that she wants to go down on him as well.

But, the next day, when he recounts the previous day's confessions to his best friend (Seth Rogan), he only looks at him with a perplexed expression. After looking on facebook, he finds out that the girl he called using his Samsung Galaxy S7 edge is not the same girl he fell in love with. In fact, she doesn't exist in this planet at all. She is the girl's robotic alien counterpart (powered by Windows 10), who has fallen in love with the MC's own robotic alien self(Powered by Linux), who too is blissfully unaware of her crush.

Hijinks ensue as the two strike up a deal to give each other their darkest, most private secrets in order to equip the other with the weapons they need to conquer the heart of their other selves. While the two chase their respective loved ones, ACTION ensues as they begin to fall in love with each other instead and question the NATURE of CGI.

Directed by Guillermo del Toro.

The big problem with live action isn't the live action per se, but the script.

I mean, it's easier shove decent actors to make X characters and stuff, but make a world building is hard.

Look at mahvel movies, they didn't throw everyone against some ayylmaos and fought together because reasons.

No, first they did a world and character building, Here is Iron man, he is a cunt, here is cap murrica, he is a popsicle etc, and later they fight toghether as the avengers, and stays true to original source...Most of time.

At least for me, adaptations can be good, you just need find the right kind of jewscriptwriter and a good director.

Initial D

I was listening to an automotive podcast the other day were they were talking about making a car movie. F&F aren't really about cars any more, and the Gone in Sixty Seconds remake was the last car movie to make a profit, and it barely did that. Otherwise, all car movies bomb because young people don't really care about cars any more. Initial D is perfect in that it throws back to the mid 90's, a time that everyone is nostalgic about right now, where driving and the car still mattered to the youth. A story about a kid with no real motivation or goal, or interest in cars for that matter (something most people could relate to) enters a street race over a bet with his Dad. If he wins, he gets the car for the day and a full tank of gas so he can take his crush to the beach on a date. He wins, he gets the girl, he develops some kind of emotion towards cars and driving and sets up the next opponent. You could make a nice trilogy around the first season.

The point isn't whether you think it's good or not, the point is that anime plot isn't as far fetched from reality as you make it seem, a lot of people watch these dramas not realizing they are adapted from manga/anime plots. Similar to how people don't realize that some anime are adapted from novels. The only major difference between the 2 is that anime/manga has a easier time showing facial expressions (ie. dead fish eyes for yandere, blushes for tsundere)

WETA Digital was talking about doing a live-action Evangelion movie at a while ago. They even released a bunch of concept art, but IIRC the project never made beyond that.
>>
>>139205286
so meaning we will get live action tv shows of mangas?
>>
I used too think Evangelion, but I realize how fucking dumbed down this would be compared too the original. Also Rebuild shows Eva can't work in a movie format.

There are some obvious franchises too adapt.

>Gantz (Horror/Action)
>Monster (Detective/Thriller)
>Pluto (Detective/Thriller)
>Death Note (Thriller)
>Ghost in the Shell (Detective/Sci-Fi)
>Psycho Pass.(Detective/Scifi)

Reason I have chosen these is because I think Western Television does Detective/Thrillers quite well and has a lot of experience in these sort of shows. I think there is a high chance adaptions of these franchises could go quite well.

Wild Card:
>Fate/Type Moon. (Action/Supernatural)

Fate for me is the interesting one because I feel like this is a franchise with a fucking fantastic concept behind it, but is actually held back by Anime design/tropes and very mediocre/bland character writing.
If a western adaption was done well, this would be a major fucking cash cow I would suspect and would be up there with like Daredevil in mass media acclaim.

I don't know what anon is on about. Motoko is white in the GitS movie because they can't make an Clapistan blockbuster film take place outside of America, unless it's about Americans.

But setting a television show in Germany, and have a Japanese born protagonist who lives in Germany, doesn't seem like an issue to me.

Idris Elba as Dutch, Steven Yeun as Rock, Simon Pegg as Benny.

I can't think of anyone who could do Revy justice. I watched Black Lagoon dubbed and Maryke Hendrikse raspy yelling and swearing is really impressive. It'd be tough to find a fitting actor that can yell like that without screeching or seeming cringey.

I genuinely hope that they actually manage to do it justice because that's entirely within the realms of possibility. Conversely, the next best thing would be to make it as corny as all hell. At least they can cast people with naturally blond hair.

She looks like Bruna Butterfly, I'm already convinced Revy has a dick so that would be too much.

I want a Fate/Zero movie with Keanu Reeves as Kiritsugu and Nicholas Cage as Caster. Please god let this happen. Nicholas Cage was born to play Caster.

My only concern would be her height. To my knowledge Revy is rather tall and Michelle Rodriguez is rather short.

Really depends on the kind of movie they want to adapt, the big explosive blockbusters are pretty hard to move into successfully.

But a lot of Manga/Anime series would lend themselves to a lo-fi indie film.
