Live Action Ghost In The Shell=A Possibility?

[RiderZronos]

The Japanese animation company Production I.G. has acquired the rights from publisher Kodansha to sell the animated SF film Ghost in the Shell for a live-action remake, Variety reported.

Woah...

More mixed feelings about live-action anime-based productions. It could be REALLY FREAKING COOL, or it could be really mediocre. I don't think IG would ever really let it be terrible. But we'll have to see what happens....I personally think SaC gave us more of GitS than we ever could have hoped for, so I just hope they don't try to take it too far or something

Means nothing.
where's John Woo's live action Metroid?
where's James Camerons Live action Alita?

Lots of companies sell the rights to live action films, very few are actually made.

James Cameron's Battle Angel Alita is going to be on hold until after he finishes AVATAR.

You speak in truths, friend. Akira has been up in the air for years, and last I heard ADV had only half the money to make Eva *shudders.* But I think Production IG has the resources and push to make this one happen (if they really want it to). Many of these other projects are fan driven, such as Cameron doing Battle Angel. Granted, if anything happens it'll be years down the road. Ultimately Mega Ranger's skepticism is completely warranted, and history shows, more than likely correct ^_^
