xzero4812 Posted July 6, 2013 Share Posted July 6, 2013 So good news for us old skool manga heads is that James Cameron still has the rights to making a battle angel film and has confirmed that after completing his avatar trilogy that he will develop the movie with effects similar to avatar. Im glad that hes committed to it and if enough buzz stirrs around they may even continue an anime adaption of the series Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir-Syzygy Posted April 19, 2019 Share Posted April 19, 2019 Good news? I was given the impression most of the manga fans either weren't interested in this live-action film (because why would they be?), or just worried the film would be a bastardization. I suppose this just goes to show that there will always be at least two sides to something like this, which is nice. @xzero4812 Did you end up enjoying the film yourself? I hope you did. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inception was inspired by Paprika. But it doesn't matter. Needs to be based. Not inspired or tribute. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not inspired or tribute. When the Wachowski sisters pitched the idea to the studio they showed them Ghost In The Shell and said "we want to make our own version of this", I'd argue that this is basing a movie on an anime. Other animes that got great "remakes" in Hollywould are Perfect Blue that turned into Black Swan, The Lion King is somewhat based on Kimba The White Lion. And in my book, Pacific Rim is basically Neon Genesis Evangelion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
