Anime you'd like to see in a live action film

Postby dervivaire » Tue Aug 18, 2009 4:16 am

Title says all. If there are any anime you'd like to see 'brought' to life in this way then say so here (we assume the live action film would do the story justice) :D
For me, I'd be interested to see a live action film of Elfen Lied.

I wouldn't mind seeing Hellsing live-action-ified. I wonder who would play as Seras...

Excel Saga. Something like that would bound to be a challenge.

My friend showed me episodes of Excell Saga, and they are hilarious.


Maybe Slayers, Death Note, Bleach, or Naruto....or Ranma 1/2....

They are coming out with Blood, the live action movie. It's about this girl named Saia, who is a Chiraptorean and her blood is poisonous to the other Chiraptoreans (Vampires).

Shouldn't be that hard to do Blood, considering the anime movie itself (Blood: the Last Vampire)

very close to being live action in its own right

Hellsing would be fun, xXxHolic another one. Pretty Face would just be entertaining...hmmmm

The Blood Live Action Movie is pretty awsome. Anime Weekend Atlanta showed it in english in one of it's video room.

Though my god the subtitles were horrible. Which for some reason were left on despite the fact the film was in english.

It's very simular to the anime movie. Though there are many differenting plot points, and it extends a lot longer then the anime movie did.

Is it based on Blood+ or Blood the Last Vampire?

Oh yeah, I would love to see them do Pretty Face


Also, I think there is a Ghost in the Shell movie currently in the works, as well as Cowboy Bebop and Akira....I'm not sure whether to dread this or be optimistic....

There's a Pretty Face anime? Never heard of that.

Personally, I'd like to see them do an inverse here.

The Anime-Adaptation of the Live Action Sailor Moon series.
And on the 9th day, God made Ameph Est Mako. He saw his work and asked himself 'What could go wrong?'

Pretty face is about some guy who gets into a really bad car accident, and some doctor finds a photo of a girl in the patient's wallet, so the guy gets plastic surgery to have the girl in the picture's face. He now has to pose as his girlfriend's twin sister, or something. I could wikipedia it...

I'd say K-on, but it would get tied up with too much teen pop culture and begin a series of events that will end humanity as we know it. ;/

Grave of the Fireflies would be a good one. I'm sure it'd attract a large enough audience in America if it were live-action, since the medium that would inspire it doesn't really register on said audience's radar.

Pretty Face only has a manga, not an Anime, I think if it did it be amusing, and I think a live action movie be cool.

I think Slam Dunk can be done justice as a live Action, Prince of Tennis too, but are sports Anime and are rather realalistic compared to some of the others.

Luie the Rune solider could be hilarious though as a live action movie.

Sorry man, but they already did a Negima live action movie.

Let's hope it never leaves Japan.

Oh, and welcome to the forums!
