Just discovered Noien during one of the last RightStuf sales. Awesome show but the the art styles change from episode to episode - it's most obvious between eps 1 and 2 ... and also one of fight scenes about two thirds of the way through. RahXephon the Movie sucked but I liked the RahXephon series b...

Umm...what? I have a differing opinion than you, therefore I shouldn't post? Anyway, back OT - DiCaprio has produced 8 films already (I won't bother to list them here, you can find them over at iMDB). I haven't seen any of them so I can't judge them - can anyone else comment on his abilities as a pr...

So Otomo is executive producer. So what? That doesn't alter a single one of our complaints thus far.

I didn't like the original show (which I've already stated) so having one of the same guys from the show come back for this one isn't really a plus.

Whenever I see a movie that is a simplified version of the book it is based on, I cringe (LoTR, Harry Potter, etc.). My little brother has a t-shirt that says "Don't judge a book by its movie". But (and I never thought I would suggest something like this) a simplified Wheel of Time would be pretty c...

@DTJB - Didn't mean to cause severe emotional distress there. I wasn't serious in the slightest. Just displaying one of the "Worst Case Scenario"s I had laying around to illustrate my opinion on the whole adaptation thing.

Dude! How many anime characters actually look Japanese? Green, pink, and spikey yellow hair aside. :D

Adapting anime titles to live action would in 99% of all cases be an impressive disaster. Why you ask? Or maybe you didn't. Whatever. Because you can do things with animation that you simply cannot do with live action. CG does some amazing things these days but if you're going to make the vast major...
