New Akira Movie

[Holkeye]

So yeah, they're making a two-part, live-action Akira movie. Leonardo DiCaprio is going to be in it, but there aren't many other details yet. IMDB has the date set as 2011, so it's still a while away.

WHAT?

...

LIVE ACTION?

[spoiler]I honestly have no idea whether to be excited or repulsed.[/spoiler]

[Nightwolf]

It actually depends on the cast and how well they carry it out. It would be good if they live up to the expectations, but usually it's a fuss over nothing. So, you can't say anything until the trailer (actually, the movie) comes out.

[Holkeye]

It's going to be awesome. When has any movie that DiCaprio acts in been bad? I can't remember any.

I didn't like Catch Me If You Can or the Aviator, but I agree that generally the movies he's been in were awesome starting with What's Eating Gilbert Grape?

[Holkeye]

I've never seen The Aviator, but I actually really liked Catch. It wouldn't have been as good if it wasn't a true story, but I thought it was pretty good.

[Nightwolf]

I hate it when they announce the movie 1-2 years before. Ok, 6 months before is ok but in 1-2 years, i'm like "Oh, C'mon man. Just 398 days left for The Dark Knight....Gosh time is so slow"

Would be pretty interesting to see a live-action take on Akira.
PEW PEW PEW

Isn't that the movie where they shoot lasers at each other and their hair turns gold?

[Karo Rushe]

I hope they pull this off right >__>;;

[Kokowam]

They better. Akira was a great movie :3 I hope it's the Akira I'm thinking about, lol.
