Wouldn't any of the Dracula films BE a live action version of Hellsing? Dracula even gets fucked up WAAAAYYYYYYY worse then Alucard does >.> . Dies by: getting stabbed. Gets burned alive. Gets stabbed again. Drowns in a freezing lake of water. Gets Stabbed. Gets impaled by many more lethal objects >.>

But of course! After all, The Hellsing Ultimate is more close to the manga, which was better than the anime, and also has many things that I like. So, of course I am talking of the Ultimate!

Nah I'm pretty sure Dracula gets more fucked then Alucard ever did :wink: You obviously haven't seen all of the Dracula films. And Dracula actually suffers when he gets hurt, Alucard can't get hurt at all so he never in a sense gets "fucked up" =/

BTW wasn't the worst that Alucard got fucked up just getting shot up by a bunch of zombies? Other than that I don't really see how he gets too fucked up that much 0.o He does get body parts ripped off but always regenerates so I don't see how his pain can compare to Dracula's >.>

Alright now, all of you calm yourself. This thread isn't about which vampire get more fucked up. The reason that I put Hellsing as a possible candidate of a good live action movie is that we are all tired of the old vampires. If they did a live action film of Hellsing it would give a new persepective of vampires, not giving the same old point of view of vampires. Now, anything else you would like to comment?

OK...the story wouldn't actually hold as a movie...but a live-action TV series based on Baccano! could potentially be amazing depending who was cast in the roles (especially in the cases of Isaac, Miria, and Ladd...those would be the deal breakers.)

I think Naruto would. Also, Full Moon O Sagashite. Two good animes. FMOS is on the soft side thought... :D

I can totally see an Akira or Neon Genesis movie being done by the Wachowski brothers. Neon Genesis in particular, since it has a lot in common with the matrix (complex themes, tons of biblical references, action scenes, etc)... Just hope they wont pick Keanu reeves as the role of shinji....*shudders*

If there ever is an Akira movie, (and I'm crossing my fingers) I just want two actors who can yell "TETSUO!!" and "KANEDA!!" really really well.

Both are already being made.
The Evangelion movie is being made in Japan, but is taking a hell of a long time to make.
Akira is being Americanized. Taking place in New York City, it will be split into two movies, going by the Manga's storyline.

Somehow I'm not surprised that Neon Genesis is in development hell.

Well I knew that much, I just wish it was the Wachowski Brothers working on it. They managed to make a movie out of Speed Racer, so a movie with an actual plot to it would be a walk in the park.

The Americanizing shouldn't be too bad (hopefully), just so long as the plot is the same and the action scenes are still awesome. My only problem is that they're probably going to be yelling "THOMAS!!" and "KEVIN!!"*

XD

I always thought that Gundam Wing could be a decent live action movie. It has just always seemed to click in my head. I think a Gundam Wing (or any Gundam for that matter) movie would appeal to both anime and non-anime lovers. I could see it being a trilogy.
