To F*ck up more your weekend, theres a talking to make Death Note (status still in Development so not 100% sure), God of war and Bioshock. Also rumor has it, another installment of Mortal Kombat (havent they *** this up already?!)
Some Confirmed ones are The Prince of Persia, The last Airbender and the Green Lantern.
So prepare to be heartbroken/amazed!

If they DARE to touch a Hayao Miyazaki movie.......

And I wanna see an all-white cast for Amistad II, that would be interesting.

haha, Gyllenhaal as the Prince of Persia. They might as well have used the random dude from the Black Eyed Peas that no one knows. lol
The crease in the Airbender kids shirt above his left hand makes it look like he's throwing a thumbs-up. lolol I like the guy in the middle for Green Lantern, though, he's not too baaaaaad.
There was a native Death Note movie done already by a Japanese Studio that was actually pretty good. If it's done by someone here, I can't imagine we'd be as lucky. lol Trad anime live-action remakes seem like they'd be so freaking god awful.

An expectation you KNOW it wont be met. you can only hope.. want proof? Imagine this Live-Action Bleach

Oh Caiyuo, Ryan Reynolds is the one who is going to play the Green Lantern.
also the original green lantern was white. There has been a Black green lantern, and also a woman.

The hell. lol Reynolds was pidgeon-holed as a goofy comedian role, and X-Men certainly didn't change things, so why he's going after Green Lantern is beyond me. I guess you have to have to a sense of humor to rock the mask, unitard, tights and ring and still pull off something wacthable. lol

There have been a few and the black guy on the new justice league just happens to be one of them. Green Latern isn't like Batman or Superman where there is just one, Green Latern is like an organization. Sorry to go all nerd on ya', Green Lantern was just one of the few I really enjoy. Obvi the movie will *** it up, though.

I don't think I would watch a western live action death note. The Japanese live action was imo stellar and can't imagine how a "Hollywood" release could top that. Although a Never ending story remake? I'm going to scour the interwebs now for moar infos. <3'd that movie.

I'm predicting alot of fail. We'll see how the previews look and that will determine whether or not I see it in the theater or wait it out for rental release.

Comingsoon.net said: The Kennedy/Marshall Co. (The Curious Case of Benjamin Button) and Leonardo DiCaprio's company Appian Way are in discussions with Warner Bros. about reviving the 25-year-old franchise with a modern spin. The studio recently acquired rights to the property, clearing the way for a potential remake Its still categorized as "in Development", if goes into production would be done by 2012. Neverending Story was a very good film, even though Michael Ende did not like much the movie. The second Movie was a bit so-so, since it ended the story in the book but with a lot of things changed. The third one crushed my hope in this franchise, IMO a horrible movie that shouldn't have seen the light.

yeah totally agree, hollywood sucks bad when making films based on games or anime, sometimes if you look at the film itself, it might not be too bad, but if u link with the anime/game story, you just think the thing is, most NA/EU ppl think animation/cartoon are for kids, but in JP, they make it so good that most of the time is better then watching hollywood films. You got to laugh out loud when u see them give oscar award to making cg creatures in Lord of the ring (smeagol, or how ever u spell it) and harry potter (dobby), they really should watch FF7 advent children complete, or even most of the in game FMVs are better then those crap that get mentioned in oscar awards

I have netflix for a reason...
I doubt I'll ever watch the Dragonball movie. I watched the trailers prior to it coming out and instantly shunned it. (I'm a big fan of the original DB series. DBZ+ moved away from the comedy and more towards pure action.)
Saw a preview for The Last Airbender. I haven't watched the anime series, but the preview looked decent.

Basically the synopsis made it sound like theres some meaning to it all... and in the end the whole number thing pretty much meant jack and didn't help anything.
Ok, so I know everyone heard about the Dragonball movie that was just released.
I knew at the start that it was going to be bad. I only wanted to go to see the fighting scenes....
But the best fighting scene is the one that Goku didn't fight....
WTF us up with that?
Seriously, how Hollywood can get away from taking one of the most beloved series in history and turn it into....crap is beyond me. They didn't even try to stay with the main story.
It was like "We are Hollywood! We can take a story that has almost 30 years of history in it and make it in our image, and it would be better than what everyone knows and loves!" I honestly think that they think they can get away with it.
I say, lets just not bother watching any more movies from HW if it takes something we all know and love (like FF) and turns it into crap (like FF:Spirits). I don't know why I even bothered watching that PoS movie besides the fighting, which it lacked of.
P.S. I also watched another movie called Yatterman. Same beloved anime, turned into live action film, but made in Japan. Much much much much x1000 better than DB:E. Even though I couldn't understand what they were saying (I don't speak Japanese) I still enjoyed the movie more......than the PoS....
