Poll question: Which cartoon would you like to see made into live action?

1. Ghost in the Shell or Akira

Both could be done with the current technology. Both would be great. Though I am leaning more towards Ghost right now.

2. They're in pre-production for live Akira, aren't they?

Thought I read some casting news a while back.

3. wouldn't be surprised...

if La Blue Girl is already live action, then Akira has gotta be in production somewhere. Oh, perhaps you mean a 'good' production. not a B-movie fan acted version.

4. Oh, that would be weird.

A live action Akira? One of the things about Akira that I feel has kept up its near-mythic quality is the surrealism, the fantasy-blended with operatic violence and tragedy. Today's action films mean to be quick, dirty, get the job done with almost antiseptic-looking CGI. Akira's storytelling seems almost to come from a different era, and the way it has a deliberate, purposeful plot revelation method combined with smash-cut action keeps it current.

I just can't imagine it in live action done the way the story has come to be loved!
