I'd like to be wrong, but my initial reaction is that this looks like it sucks. They recreated Spike's outfit too perfectly and I just think it looks weird if it's not animated.

    After having tried to watch a few live action remakes of animes. I have a question.

    Outside of the Full Metal Alchemist one, are there any that are decent?

      I've heard live action Ruroni Kenshin is good.

        I was just reminded about Speed Racer.

        Good to know about Battle Angel, I might try to keep my eyes out for it.

        I was not aware that movie was based on a manga. TIL.

      Speed Racer is great, but only because it completely embraces the cartoon, unrealistic aesthetic. It's completely zany and surreal and ridiculous and fun

        Well call me a :smoking-fish:

        I completely forgot about that one. That one is great! Way better than I was expecting. Hell, I've seen it several times.
