I actually laughed out loud when I read this. Not having high hopes for that. Maybe also because I didn't particularly like the anime ^^. Check out our new Simul Watch CLUB and join if you're interested in watching stuff together with other people online to discuss about it in a more private and detailed matter than the episode discussion subforums can provide. Also the Custom Tags Club, if you like to customize your tags and don't want to wait until the MAL feature is fixed. If Death Note is "chess", LotGH is "3D Chess." - lisnoire Code Geass would be Rock-Paper-Scissors in this analogy. Guilty Crown? xthedestroyer said: Go Fish! |

Some sources say it will be a TV drama. Could it be as bad as the Hipotetic movie will surely be? The answer is obvious.      |

Sam Raimi, the master of making stuff that doesn't put me to sleep, adapting Noir, an anime that came close to putting me to sleep MANY times? Sold. Besides, Noir could easily work in live-action. I mean, the anime series itself wasn't that animated to begin with... |

I think Noir is a very underrated anime, it had great music, and a pretty good story which unfortunately did not come across as well as it should have because they were stuck with an idiotic studio which didn't show blood... |

This could be good. It is an anime that can be made into a realistic live action series. I think there are better series they could do (Monster) but I will definitely check this out.  |

It's called censorship. And don't get too excited about Sam Rami. Oh yes I think he is a fine director, but that's just that, a director. Assuming this is a TV series of some kind (being Starz) Rami is the Executive Producer. Generally in the world of Television the Executive Producer is the one who charges the project (like a chief director would on an anime) But 9/10 times the executive producer is the one who actually created the series to begin with. When someone like Sam Raimi or Jerry Bruckheimer Executive produces a series they really get a network interested and see to it that the polite episode is made and after that they don't do anything with the series. |

Noir is one of the few animes that I think can have a GOOD American movie adaptation. |

Have yet to watch the anime, but this DO NOT want. They will most probably change a lot of the plot as well its Sam Raimi after all...  |

This actually might not go so poorly, and it won't be because of Sam Raimi and Rob Tapert. Those two raped pillaged and burned Legend of the Seeker to the ground with Disney ABC's help. It has the possibility of going well, because it is being done by Starz (who've been doing pretty great with shows like Spartacus Blood & Sand, and the adaptation of Ken Follet's Pillars of the Earth). Starz will have no huge incentive to dramatically alter the content like a syndicated television network would, or have to dumb down content for a pg rating like a major movie studio dealing with an anime would. I'll keep my fingers crossed, but not necessarily hold my breath. I just hope they keep Kirika as a young Japanese girl. |

Without Yuki Kajiura's soundtrack, in my opinion, the remake is not going to hold a flame to the original. Don't have to think about it twice. |
