It never ends. Hollywood is just going to keep digging till we make them stop.
Now they're useing Ghost in the Shell for their little little klepto party. Steven Spielberg is who we have to blame for this one. Still it's so new in conseption that all we do know is that Spielberg is the one who thought it up. We have no plot, no cast, no director. We'll have to wait and see.
And the other, though debated on weather it's an anime or not, Avatar: The Last Airbender. Yeah, they got M. Night Shyamalan to not only direct but to write it. And it's apparently a trilogy. Yeah, I'm scared too. Especially since I've seen the abomination that was the Ben 10 live action.
So here's the run down of the uninspired Hollywood's live action remakes:
Transformers (The one that started this all), Speed Racer (Oh Ra does this look horrible), Dragonball, Akira, Seven Samurai, Battle Angel, Ghost in the Shell, and Avatar: The Last Airbender.
Oh it's going to be interesting when these all start coming out in theaters... Dragonball is due out this year and the first Akira is hoped for a 2009 release but the rest probably won't be seen till 2010. Joy. -.-
On another note it would seem that there is to be a Japanese movie based on Blood: The Last Vampire. However the majority of the movie will be done in English rather then Japanese. Now, I'm not a huge Blood/Blood+ fan so the plot doesn't really mean anything to me. However it doesn't sound that bad. Still, in my opinion most things should stay animated rather then be made live action.
