    Default Leonardo DiCaprio to make live-action akira

    http://www.zap2it.com/movies/news/za...,7969479.story

    Apparently they are going for a "two-film epic"

    I personally don't think that this would work well at all, awful idea.

    The setting of the new version will reportedly be shifted to "Neo-Manhattan," a futuristic New York City that's been rebuilt with Japanese money.
    Of course it would be so. I really can't see this ending well.

    Looks good.

    Great trailer music. Suspenseful.

    On topic: Not gonna work, can't do anything but botch it. If they were going to make the film, why not use say... um I don't know Japanese actors? It'll be another "The Last Samurai." Tom Cruise are you kidding me?

    Here's something, why not get a live-action Dragonball Z movie in production?

    They made a live-action Dragonball Movie ages ago. Well, kinda. Dragon Marbles, anyways. It's pretty kickass.

    Michael Ballack, he scores free-kicks.

    It's being made on Toluca and Durango actually.

    So yeah, back in topic, I stopped reading on the "Neo-Manhattan" part.
