    25 Anime remakes: Hollywood's new cash cow 

    Now that comic movies have definitely been accepted by a general audience it’s time for Hollywood to find another cash cow. They just might have found that in Anime (and Manga) movies.

    Beneath you’ll find a list of 25 Anime movies with a ‘Live Action’ or a Computer Generated version on their way. Some of these Anime have already been ‘transfered’ into a ‘Live Action’ version by Hollywood (or Asian) studios.

    Hollywood knowing they just pump a massive amount of money in this genre until they get the box-office hit they want. So we shouldn’t be surprised if we’ll see a lot of remakes, reboots and prequels like they’ve done with the comic genre.

    Already ‘translated’ into a Live Action versions:

    1.Casshern

    I found this one hard to digest: a bit chaotic and somehow hard to follow. Couldn’t tell if it justifies the original though.
    Rating: ★★½☆☆

    2.The Guyver

    An Anime which actually deserves a big budget remake. A true great anime up to par with Akira and Ninja Scroll. This version however was just a small production, which couln’d justify the original series.
    Rating: ★★★☆☆

    3.Fist of the North Star

    fist of the north star
    A very cheesy (read B-movie) and over the top post apocalyptic martial-arts movie. Just like the original Anime, which had a very poorly drawings. Actually a great conversion and maybe an example for the rest?
    Rating: ★★★★☆

      I heard Keanu Reeves is playing Spike Spiegel. I have lost faith in that move now.

      I don´t know whether he can pull this one, but I certainly am charmed by Keanu and even more after having seen The Day the Earth Stood Still.

      I´m not that sceptical after all, actually…

      I very much doubt Hollywood will be remaking Sailor Moon since Toei has pulled the plug on all Sailor Moon licencing around the world, and doesn’t seem to intend on renewing any licences.

      But even if they did manage to obtain the rights to this series, I very much doubt they’ll be able to do it justice without making it too kiddy, too digital, and too far-fetched from the original concept. Personally they should just spare us another Dragonball flop and leave it alone.

      way stupid this list…. a few good ones like blood, ninja scroll. akira, evangelion, and ninja scroll but all the other animes listed suck. why dont they try to film some great anime like perfect blue. id say vampire hunter d, but blade already snagged that story line and ripped it off.
