  1. Makes sense. Universal already bought the Live Action division of DreamWorks from Disney, so everything will be In-house.

  5. Everything will come down to the quality of the film itself. At least I hope so. Men, I hope they keep those cute Tachikoma robots in the movie.
  6. I do not see anyone complaining about a caucasian playing a russian character in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. I do not see anyone complaning about Japanese actors playing european characters in the live action version of Attack On Titan. And I saw almost very little complains about Jhonny Storm being black, or Nick Fury being black instead of white like in the comics. So much Hipocresy from SJW, it makes me sick. Guys, movies are a business, not a charity work. Get over it.
  7. Before the shittalking begins here I would like you forum posters to READ THE WHOLE ARTICLE before making an opinion out of context. The article says that yes, they did those VFX test in pre production, but Paramount immediately rejected the idea of making Scarlett more Asian looking, and Scarlett herself wasnt even involved in the process. What a clickbait tweet.
  8. Aside from Takeshi Hikano as Chief Aramaki they also have Kaori Momoi, Chin Han, Danusia Samal, Yutaka Izumihara, and Tuwanda Manyimo as Section 9 members in the cast. So the setting in the Japan and keeping their names is completely justified. And Batou is actually european, so having Pilou Asbaek who is european himself makes sense. So any complains about whitewashing in this movie is complete utter bullshit. And for the 1345th time: MAKOTO IS A FUCKING CYBORG WHO CAN SWAP BODIES AT ANY TIME!!!! Heck, even in the original movie she ended with the body of a 12 year old child while sounding like an older women for pete sake. With a character like that you can get away with anything
  9. My god it looks just like Makoto!!! Thats awesome. I am still watching the second season of the Ghost In The Shell TV series so this picture actually gets me really pumped for the movie. I hope that instead of remaking the original, it takes one of the Stand Alone Complex storylines since those are kinda more interesting to adapt to live action.

  14. Ok I just finish watching both versions of the Fate/Stay Night story (Deen and Ufotable). Lets start with the 2006 one. At first I was really enjoying it, maybe because I was still hyped up for Fate/Zero, but as the series went on it just kept falling apart. The Main Character, Shirou is just a whiny little bitch that I just cant stand watching, every single decision he makes just makes every single situation worse both for him and his allies. His relationship with Saber was really akward and his way of thinking is simply idiotic. "People die when they are killed"... yes, he fucking said that. The only saving grace of this turd is Rin Toshaka who sadly gets very little developement whatsoever. Saber herself who I really loved in Fate/Zero gets her character ruined in this series. No one else stands out. The animation is pretty average at best. The first OP is nice though. And of course the ending is complete and absolute bullshit. I hate it when series like these start very well and then they crash hard. 5,5/10 Now with Unlimited Blade Works, I had hopes after the shit that was the Deen version because the people who worked in Fate Zero worked on this remake too. And Thank god for that. The very first episode is a version of the first couple of episodes of the original version from the perspective of Rin in 40 minutes, already loved that because Rin is my favorite character of the original, other thing that pleased me is that this time Rin gets WAY more character development in this version. Then the next episode is another 40 minutes of the same episode from the perspective of Shirou. Props to Ufotable for making him a much better character this time around. Now, the rest of the series is not the Battle Royale that Zero was with the Holy Grail but more about the personal Journey of our Heroes: Shirou and Rin (they make a very lovely couple BTW) and I am OK with that, this series didn`t needed to be better than Fate Zero, It just needed to be good on its own. The other characters this time around where much better developed (especially Caster and Rider) except Sakura who sadly still gets the shaft in this franchise, one of the minor flaws of this series. About the animation....MY GOD THE ANIMATION IS FUCKING ORGASMIC. Those fight scenes, those 360 shots, man. Now I know why this show is nicknamed Unlimited Budget Works. The soundtrack is also marvelous to hear. And the finale was also very satisfying. This show was outstanding to watch from the first episode to the last and a massive improvement over the original. 9/10

  18. I finished watching 2 anime series recently: Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood and Fate/Zero In the case of Fullmetal Alchemist I really liked it. It was a very good balance of Comedy and Drama with some really good action sequences. Even though the anime drags a few parts here and there, when shit goes down, it really goes down. I liked all the characters (Roy Mustang is a fucking badass!!!) and the story and mithology of Alchemy was very well executed. The movie "Sacred Star of Milos" was also a really entertaning story with also great action sequences (especially the last fight between Ashely and Julia Crichton) but the animation style thew me off. Overall its an 8 out of 10 for me. Now with Fate/Zero. Boy, I fucking love this anime. I know there is two Fate/Stay Night adaptation witch are the sequel to this story, but I decided to watch this first in order to keep the tension throughout the series not knowing who lives and who dies in Fate/Stay Night. And boy did it work. The whole thing is essentially a Battle Royale between Magus and the Church for the Holy Grail and 7 Masters who summons 7 Servants through some sort of magical circle must fight for it. What I really loved about this series is that it does not have a clear main character and not all of the players are 100% good or bad and therefore you dont really know who is gonna win at the end (unless you have watched Stay Night I suppose). Everyone has a motivation for having the Grail and everyone has different views about Good and Evil so the conversations between the characters become a clash of Ideologies. In many ways this show reminds me alot of Game Of Thrones, except that this one has very little profanity and nudity. Rider, Saber and Lancer are the standouts, Gilgamesh while being kind of an asshole, its the fun kind of asshole. All OPs and EDs are great. The animation of the fight scenes are absolutely spectacular to watch, the chorus of the Soundtrack is incredibly epic and it gets you pumped for the fights. The twist and turns the story takes are unpredictable and exciting (again, I have not watched Stay Night yet) and the way the show ends is also brilliant because it stays true to the characters motivations set out before, and its also surprisingly very hopeful considering the outcome of the Fourth Holy Grail War, its just brilliant. I know the first episode is a 40 minute info drop out but it was necessary to understand a few this that happens later on the show. AND NO HIGH SCHOOL SETTING IS A PLUS!!!!!! Anyway, I absolutely loved Fate/Zero and its the first flat out 10 out of 10 I have ever given to an Anime.
