Is making live action movies out of anime going to be the hot new trend to replace capeshit? If so what anime is next after GiTS for a movie?

Who would you cast in it?

It would probably end up being garbage but i would love to see a live action Black Lagoon movie. Shit the series is already inspired by western action and crime movies so it could transition well.

Well, they already announced a Fullmetal Alchemist adaptation. Not to mention, there's quite a few projects that have been stuck in development hell. HBO's adaptation of Noaki Urasawa's Monster would be cool to see if done right.

The adaptation of Akira can STAY in development hell for all I care. It's way too easy to ruin.
>>
>>70250626
It's more original up to the point that you see the same tired tropes used in anime over and over. They lose their shock value.

Not saying there aren't a stupid amount of great settings and arcs though.

This. If the 80s-90s nostalgia movies continue to do well, expect to see adaptations of series that were popular in the 90s so you can get those multiple demographics in the theater. Or has high name recognition already.

See: Pokemon, Sailor Moon, Dragon Ball/DBZ

Other contenders: Cowboy Bebop, Ghibli movies, whatever is popular with kids now (Naruto/Bleach/One Piece)

>Cowboy Bebop movie
Don't get my hopes up like that anon

Side question: would this age of animekino, as anon put it, make anime a normal thing?
>>
>>70250972
Anime is a normal thing.
>>
>>70250972
i'm pretty sure Rian Johnson only agreed to Star Wars Episode VIII so he could get studio funding for a live-action Cowboy Bebop film

he's wanted to make it forever. even told JGL to base his performance in BRICK on Spike
>>
>>70250995
Not a chance. Anime is still "that thing for weirdos" as I heard one girl put it.
>>
>>70250760
Ah. I only heard they were making a live action FMA movie. Didn't know it was going to be made in Japan.

I honestly can't think of a better cast.

Still thinking of Balalaika and Eda though.

Unironically a Gundam would make a great adaptation, since audiences have already been warmed to giant robots and space colonies.

Add in Americas love of gritty war films, fighting terrorists, and space nazis, and it would be a hit.

Good choice. Sawyer...hmm

Probably not having a teen actor for that kind of role. Short woman actor.
>>
>>70252458

it's self aware. you're not meant to get caught up in the main character acting bad ass, it's satire.

plus the preacher guy is funny as fuck. who wouldn't want to see him come to life in live action.

it has the potential to be a self aware gothic movie.
>>
Honestly there's a fine line. If they keep all the weird-ass jap weeaboo shit, nobody except autists will watch it, and it will be an artistic and commercial failure. If they change enough to make it appeal to normal people, like say Edge of Tomorrow, then it will work.
>>
GiTS and Death Note are filming now. Fullmetal Alchemist is shooting next year.

Animeshit and Vidyashit are gonna eclipse capeshit.
