Dreamworks has been licensed the rights to adapt Ghost in the Shell into a live action movie. Not only will it be live action, but it'll be 3D as well. Either this will be a success like the Transformers, or this movie will share the same fate as Dragonball.

I predict massive amounts of fail.

It will probably be fail.



But, it could be quite awesome....like minority report on steroids.

I can predict that Motoko won't have her violet hair unfortunately . I wonder what the cast will be for Section 9.

I reakon it could work they were halfway there with the Matrix.

i will pass judgment when more is announced

What happened to the live action Akira too, heard news about this last year.

I checked out IMDB and it says that this movie won't be out until 2011.

The 3-D aspect is already a turn-off for me. Watch, they'll cast Vin ****ing Diesel as Batou.

I also found out that the screenwriter is Jamie Moss and the producers are Avi Arad and Steven Paul.

I wish they would stop with the 3D.

I agree, I can't imagine how this would be properly translated.

Milla Jovovich=/=Major Motoko Kusanagi. estahuh

Doesn't seem like it would be a very hard adaptation. The Anime movie seems to have practical shots that would be well suited for a live action adaptation. Other than a few exceptions the effects also seem like they would be rather easy to replicate into live action.

I'm more curious to see Blood though. Has anyone seen that yet?

I have heard the plot sucked.

Looks like shit IMHO, Blood I mean.

damn. I guess it's to complicated for someone to put together a script about a vampire hunter, huh.

I guess.

The movie looks incredibly cheesy.

I've only seen the anime of Blood, I do like the look of the live action though.

This will fail just as bad as Resident Evil

RE wasnt bad

i heard about this a bit ago
seems cool

The First movie was decent but the rest that followed shit

To be fair, the second movie had undead, bloody hookers.

That made the movie at least half-decent IMO.

the third was okay but i didnt like that they killed off LJ and Carlos

The third was better than the terrible second Resident Evil movie at least, the fourth live action film is on the way.

Why? What's the point?

Hollywood need to stop this.

No.


All of the RE's were AWESOME.


Bring me more, Hollywood. MORE!

I think his post was asking what's the point for a live action Ghost in the Shell.

I agree that was definitely cheap and the first one was certainly the best. It holds up as a good movie on its own. Even if it is an aliens rip off but i think thats why i like it so much.

Well,

Do you see how that works?

Why couldn't Dreamworks make this into a CGI movie like Advent Children? This has a 50% chance to sink or swim.

I wonder if the Tachikomas will have the same voice acting.

Got some info on this

Laeta Kalogridis to Adapt Ghost in the Shell

Bad idea.

Pointless, there is no way that this will be better than the the Anime- in any way.

Edit: Wrong thread, doh!.

That writer mentioned wrote Alexander, and Pathfinder, that doesn't go down well with me...

Should we be glad or worried about this?

Oh, god.

Depends on who they get to direct it.
