Wait and See...

news from cyberspace...two anime classics are about to be remade into live action films





Some of the rumors spreading on the internet include Leonardo diCaprio starring in the live-action "Akira" while Steven Spielberg has acquired the rights to remake "Ghost in the Shell"...

Not too sure what to expect from these movies as it will be a very long time before they are to be released -- if they will be made at all. It will be a challenge to translate some of the philosophical concepts in these anime into mainstream live action. Just hope they don't make a mess of things...
