this movie has epic fail written all over it and is an obvious hollywood cash in.

like the people who are trying to make evangelion or ghost in the shell into live action movies, i say as an anime purist boycott them. they will only take out the asian culture and backgrounds and re-write them as american with bad american actors.

i hope that the stalled starblazers movie for instance never gets off the ground.

in the immortal words of the prequel trilogy vader when first hearing of an akira movie "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!"

i think the neon genesis evangelion films would have been mildly interesting with weta workshop being the studio making them with adv and peter jackson directing. but they seem to be dead in the water as much as the peter jackson halo movie.
