Yeah, but if they put anime on the big screen, it will start to become more mainstream...which'll mean more crappy dubs and more people only thinking that it's Dragonball Z and hentai.

There have been some movies that use anime action in their story (like Vocano High and The Matrix Trilogy) but it would be very difficult for a live action anime movie to really make it on the big screen. It would be more of a regional thing (Japan has done some live action anime movies, but none have reached US shores).
Although the one anime that could possibly break into mainstream US movies could be a Ninja Scroll movie. I'm basing this on the popularity of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon and The Matrix movies. Ninja Scroll's timeline closely resembles CT,HD and the effects inThe Matrix movies would go great with the over the top characters of NS.

there was a big 15 minute section in Kill Bill that was anime. I think Kill Bill was received pretty well, so whoever saw it might have gotten interested a little in anime, realizing it isn't just kid stuff and hentai

yea anime should stay anime not live action, alot of great anime is fantasy type anime there are realistic animes, but there are more fantasy, the fantasy and exaggeration of it is just too much for live action

They have, and did okay. They showed them in selected theatres to test out the audience. They do that now to see if an anime is good enough to stand to an North American audience. However, and take it from me, we Canadian's are hog wild about anime. We can't get enough!

As for NA toons standing up against anime...not a chance! Take Teen Titans for example. It was created, drawn and mixed in NA, but it has a distinctive Japanese anime look and the theme song is in Japanese. Teen Titans is so huge because of it!!!

yes i do hope it is a triumph for anime, but as i said earlier, much anime is not designed for live action, some is but the majority is not

what i mean is live action films such as some anime w/ real people in many cases it just seems too wierd, odd and flimsy. i dont think live action should be made, real anime movies when its anime is okay

the made a gundam movie that way (in Japan)...Gundam Saviour. Well, if companies ever do put out an anime for the screens (for release in all of the USA, and it's not a kids) they would realy have to step up everything. It would suck if someone went to see it, and it was there first anime ever, and the dubbing was crap. Some studios should get together and put one out.

yea i remember doctor van helsing from Bram Stolkers Dracula, but i also believe they took aspects of him from the anime too, but i am sure the one from bram stolkers dracula is the base of the character.
