Will never watch out of principle. Won't even watch a trailer.

Same story with Ghost in the Shell.


I heard a rumor that they might be making an Akira live action movie. If true, Hollywood needs to burn.

Watch the OVA or read the manga.

The character design in this movie is the most offputting I’ve ever seen. 0% chance I watch

This.

Everything about this looks painful. I might give it a shot a few years down the road, but there's no way in hell I'd ever pay to see this. Movie looks sooooooo bad.

Why, it was a very good adaptation or the original manga with a lot of stuff kept in tact. Ghost in the shell was whitewashed as fuck, yeah, but you can't use that as an opinion for another movie. That's kinda a fallacy.

You guys are all judging a book by a cover. It was a great movie. As a fan of the original manga, I enjoyed the fuck out of it.

I don't care. Hollywood needs to stop remaking, rehashing, rebooting, .... and definitely leave anything manga the fuck alone.


Edit: the original manga is way too large to render into a 2hour movie. From what I understand, they basically remade the OVA.
