Especially since there are already a dozen movies a year that look like Iron Man. |

Not a lot of people know this, but in 1991 the Dragonball series got a Taiwanese live action adaptation called Dragonball: The Magic Begins The film is basically an unofficial live-action adaptation of the first Dragonball animated film Curse of the Blood Rubies, but so far it only exists in an English-dubbed version where Son Goku is called 'Monkey boy' and the dragonballs "pearls" and things like that. There was also a South Korean adaptation in 1990 called Dragonball: Ssawora Son Goku, Igyeora Son Goku (Dragonball: Fight Son Goku, Win Son Goku) This version adapts adapts the events of the Emperor Pilaf Saga and a little of the Saiyan Saga. |

Nah, there's definitely a subtitled version. Unfortunately there's also some weird special edition type tomfoolery going on where they redid the special effecs with CGI and it's damn near impossible to find the original! |

Alita seems to be a hit among people on various forums I visit. I'm kinda surprised. |

I saw it last Friday and, although it's not a masterpiece, I was happy to see they didn't modify/simplify the original material too much and gave some key scenes a full visual adaptation. The actors/actresses also looked quite similar to the original characters. The Iron City world is visually wonderful, full of details and background activity. This adaptation could have been a LOT worse! They kept the ending open for a sequel if it ever happens. IMDB at 7.6/10 and RT 60% (critics) / 93% (audience) Estimated budget of $200M, $130M at the Box Office worldwide so far. Julien |

There's going to be a live action tv series of Cowboy Bebop that's going to be released on Netflix. If this ends up being a hit there's going to be a lot more of these coming around. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cowboy_Bebop#Live-action_series |

I hope the talented young people working on this won’t have their careers ruined if it flops and I hope they their next job with let them express their own ideas instead of being a drone on a creatively pointless recreation of other people’s work. I hope the producers retire and devote their fortunes to more worthwhile pursuits. As a paying Netflix customer I’d rather they’d just buy all their users a BR of the original show. It would be cheaper and better. |
