Turning Anime into Live-Action seems to be the new thing

[meroko14]

Well, I'm slow, but a week ago apparently Full Metal Panic! got picked up to be a live action movie entitled Panic.

More info here I love Full Metal Panic! Both the anime and manga, but I dunno how I feel about a live action. I did enjoy Transformers, so hopefully they can make it good like Transformers. But, Zac Efron? I don't have anything

OMG @ Zac Efron. I was totally shocked when I found out about the FMP! thing a few hours ago.

But, Zac Efron?
I know eh? I can't see him as Sousuke Sagara either. It's just a rumour right? No offence, but I'd rather someone else play Sousuke Sagara. He... just doesn't suit it IMO.

[meroko14]

Yea. So was I @_@

Neither can I. I hope so. They just say that right now Zac Efron is interested in the project and they don't state what character. Everyone's just assuming Sousuke. But, yea I don't think he fits Sousuke either..... :/

Hopefully, this doesn't come true...

Anyway, HAPPY 19th(?) BIRTHDAY!!! :DDD you're 19 now, right? >_<

[meroko14]

Me too!

Thanks!!! :DD Yes, I'm 19 now!! :)

Never watched FMP, so can't say whether Zac is suitable for the cast. Oh, you forgot Avatar. Its getting a live action too, although I'm not quite sure if its gonna be good..

I didn't hear about Ghost in the Shell getting a live action! Where did you read it?

[meroko14]

Great show!! I just really can't see Zac playing a miltary nut seriously. Yea, I was going to include it (since I like it ^^), but since it's not really anime... But, yea I've already heard a lot of people complaining about it. I hope it'll turn out good in the end.

Looks like every movie company under the sun is tryign to pick up atleast one anime series this year @_@

NO, DON'T GO NEAR SOUSUKE!

[meroko14]

My thoughts exactly!! I'm really afraid of who they'll cast for the characters roles now @_@

[kanname]

i don't think that Zac could play Sousuke...and you say FMP and all i can think is FMP Fummofu xD

[meroko14]

I don't think he can either. I just really can't see it @_@ I'm pretty worried about who they'll end up casting Sousuke, Kaname, Tessa, etc as now... FMP Fummofu is awesome!! :D Sadly I don't think the movie is revolving around that season :(

[kanname]

yeah...i think that too...maybe Zac could be a good Sousuke...not really...i dont see anyone who could play them :(

[meroko14]

I can't see anyone playing them either :(
