According to Meatwad, it's hentai based, not anime.

btw looks like Hollywood is saturating us with comic based movies this year. They might even start milking manga titles by 2009/10.

Close to the same thought myself.

Seems more or less like a xomplete lack of original ideas in hollywood these days

There are some advantages though...

Watch The Departed.  Best drama i've seen and was directed by M. Scorsese.  This one's a fine example of a very gooood adaptation.  It was a remade of China's [i[Internal Affairs[/i] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infernal_Affairs)

too late :P  Hollywood found their latest cash cow.

This one's scheduled for 2009
http://www.firstshowing.net/2008/02/20/its-official-live-action-akira-confirmed-already-for-2009/

Based on a 2,000+ page manga and an anime in 1988 that's very advanced for its time (super-fluid motions, 160,000+ animation cells, ultra attention to detail without the use of CGs, and complex plot/characters)

Here's the director's short preview of what's to come...

I think my favorite of the year so far is probably Rise Of The Footsoldier.

I am Legend sucked, it was further from the book than the Omega Man.

Ironman, with Indy a close second.

"There Will Be Blood" - 5/5  :aok

The musical score was outstanding and one of the best I've heard from any film.
