What Animes would you like to see as a Live Action Movie??

[FFHellDragon]

I'm quite interested to find out. Since I've been talking with a friend about this.

I really can't think of any at the moment i would like to see live action, but i'm sure i will soon.

But anyways, your ideas??

[Halfmetal-lich]

Personally, many of the anime we like, would probably be unable good live actions movies. One Piece for example, could you imagine that live action, without it be completely butchered?

However, some Animes that I do believe could make it would be more of the slice of life and "realistic." animes. Some examples are.

Detective Conan.
Bartender
Ouran Host Club (Fox News would have a field day)
Mobile Suit Gundam (If Transformers was indication.)
MAYBE Bleach. (Out of the "Shonen 3" it is probably the most able to be adapted faithfully)
Death Note

Those are just a few that I think would be able to remain faithful to their manga/anime counterparts, but still look good with a hollywood budget.

I quite like them ideas.

Ouran would be awesome! :D

And Bleach, if that ever becomes a live action, i would do a proper fan girl moment, mega one! If it looks decent that is! xD

I wonder what actors they would use if Ouran or Bleach was to become Live action...

Theres another question for ya guys! :wink:

I know if I was directing Ouran. I'd have Vic cast as Tamaki's father.

Not a bad idea! xD

Live action can be hit or miss. I liked the death note live action movies, I thought they were pretty good (not masterpieces, but still very watchable).

Personally I'd like to see an AD Police, Macross, Gasaraki or Detonator Orgun movie.

True, Live action is unpredictable.
And death note was ok but the ending was sorta disappointing, for me anyways!

NEVER SAY NEVER my friend! xD

True..but if you look at Eva..and the use of prepubescent children, and the fact that the ending makes no sense. I don't think western audiences would take it well.

I don't know. I'm kinda skeptical after what happened to to Dragonball Evolution

The ending made perfect sense, but that depends if you count each ending separately or them all as a whole: 25 and 26 being what happens within Shinji's mind, and the End of Evangelion being what is happen physically on the outside world (because they match up pretty well).

I'd personally like to see Hell Girl be brought to the big screen in Live Action form (no, I don't mean that LA series that aired on TV).

Another one I think would make a great live action would be Full Metal Alchemist
