So, they plan to Americanize it. Also, rumor mill is saying they are going for a PG-13 rating and plan to remove death, or at least, on screen death from it. Son of a *****. WHY DO THIS? WHY?!

Akira had plain face people, and yet here we have 35-40 year olds supposed to play 18-20 year old punks?

Even that dude from Twilight, or that guy in the middle I think he plays the new Spiderman.. phahah no ******* way.. I'm sad to see that people make something we all love into retarded ****. I guess the story of this will be as deep as Dragonball action movie storyline..

The guy who made it is British. You've already done it.

I'm still having a hard time believing Vin Diesel isn't even in the running.

I had that same idea, Grega...his range of emotions fits that character. However, his facial expressions don't.

I hope this turns into the level of absurdity that is Super Mario Bros: The Movie.

If? they **** up?

Of course they will, they already changed the location. So it's not set in Japan anymore. That alone will change alot.

Eh...ever been to Tokyo City? It looks like someone teleported NYC to Japan, and added a bunch of shiny. The only real difference is instead of seeing a million people 5 feet tall and Japanese, you're going to see people in a wide range of shapes, sizes and colors.
