| -sigh- |
| Keanu should make a sufficient Spike if that is the case, the directing will be the difference in whether this live-action movie is a good adaptation or not. |
| Somebody towards the end of the AnimeNewsNetwork forum comments on the story mentioned that the letters in his name could be rearranged to spell Eureka Seven. Well I wanted to comment something fiercely about that because that hit me hard, but they closed the freaking comments!!!! So, here I am begging for anyone to listen. I can't stand the fact he might want to play Spike, but for someone to suggest Holland. Well...that sent me to a whole new level of fierce contempt for any possible Spike play by him or whatever.... GRRRR |

| They've got to be kidding. |

| Apologies for posting again so quickly, but I have just considered something. Keanu is only rumoured to play Spike therefore he might not be. In which case I bet he's actually playing Faye *dodges flying objects* |
 |
| keanu reeves?..wtf bill and ted ftw! |

Maurice said: lol my thoughts exactlyThey better not screw this up like with the Dragon Ball film. |
he's actually playing Faye A man-Faye?! D:. What happens at a convention~ please stay in a convention~ > . < Gah gonna be weird! The music i'm severely looking forward to n_n. I wonder how Vicious is going to turn out to be.. |

Maurice said: They better not screw this up like with the Dragon Ball film. Dragonball film does not have Keanu Reeves in it, thus it already is better than any movie with Keanu Reeves in it, no matter how DB LA will look or what will be changed. :) |
 |
| i love keanu...but him.. as spike....eep |
 |
| ....yeah...screw this movie then. He'll look the part and thats about it. </3 Keanu. |
| *despair* If Keanu Reeves plays Spike, I'm not seeing the movie. This sucks. |

TheDrunkenShadow said: I don't see Keanu Reeves making a good Spike. Spike is like that guy who thinks everything is a mildly funny joke until someone drinks his last beer. Yep.. Reeves can`t do that sleepy expression that Spike has... And I knew that they would make a movie once.. Bebop is just too epic to not go movie... I can`t wait for it.. |
| I will still watch this movie, but only thru renting the DVD. Not that I'm saying that Keanu Reeves isn't perfect for this role, it's just that I have a policy of not watching Live-Action movies based off of anime in movie theaters. |

| Jesus christ. I guess all we can do is wait and see whether it turns out okay or not. |
     |
| oh WOW. i'm excited. i really really hope they don't mess it up though. gahhh that would be terrible. |
p r o f i l e 👀 |
| lol, hilariously bad idea. Keanu Reeves is best with the kind of characters that aren't supposed to show much emotion (like Klautu in The Day the Earth Stood Still - he was fine for that role). Spike is not at all that kind of character. |
| Spike by Keanu is not quite so worrisome as the possibility of "Tank!" by Dogstar. |
  |
| If as a result of this movies more people will watch the original material then I'm okay with that. Watched "The day the earth stood still" and soon I'll watch the original. |
  |
| Cowboy Bebop live action? Didn't know that. o_0 |

| For some reason I think Keanu could pull off Spike Spiegel. I will definatley be wanting to see this ^^ Oh wait, the movie is based on the first episode? Does this mean no Faye or Edward? D: |

| I dont have any expectation for this movie, but I will still check it when its out. |
 |
| Keanu can't make Spike's facial expressions :( he can't smile going into fights like that. He would be a bad choice. |
| I don't want Reeves to play him. I don't think he would do a good job. |
| Ugh... anime live action... >___> Do not want. |
| *sighs* When Hollywood tries to develop a live-action movie based on an anime, it's like a train wreck - you try to look away, afraid of how it will end, but you can't because there might still be a glimmer of hope... and more often than not, the whole thing ends up being a bloody massacre |

I'm already in slight despair over this news. I have nothing against Keanu Reeves. I mean his acting ability seems to wax and wane with the moon, but he isn't all that bad. He's just not awesome enough to play Spike. Plus what are they going to do about the hair? Keanu with a fro...*Shudder* |
| Fuuuuuuuuuuuck. Keanu can't act. He's only good at not acting. |
| /suicide |
 |
| Well. I am American. I enjoy being one. ^_^ .....But Keanu Reeves????!?!?!?!?!?!?!? Holy fuckin shit!!! Come on people!! Keanu has no since of humor AT ALL! That is so STUPID! God America needs to suit the hell up and find someone else!!!! |
 |
| As long as he does a decent job on playing him and the movie isn't crappy, I'm happy. |
     |
| ya he would be perfect for Spike. idk who else he would be maybe the main bad guy what ever his name was. i can see him doing Spikes fighting style hella good and he is a good actor. |

| O_O No. Tell me it's a lie. |

| When I heard they were making a live action version of Cowboy Bebop, I thought there would be a 2 percent chance they could pull it off. After reading this announcement, I amend that figure to zero percent. |
| I'll approve of Keanu Reeves, but only if Steven Blum dubs him. |
| Signature removed. Please follow the signature rules, as defined in the Site & Forum Guidelines. |
| You guys had it coming ever since Erwin Stoff took staff position. Meh, I'll see how this plays out. |
| Im kinda behind on news... live action bebop? that could be intersting... actually could work well |
     |
CCZilla said: Lol, that only leaves the problem of whether he can act loose enough to do it properly.I'll approve of Keanu Reeves, but only if Steven Blum dubs him. |
 |
| Please no... I just hope the set catches a fire or something and they will never do this... And as I said earlier @gabrielarobin.com: I’m heavily concerned about Edward’s performer now o.o” |
| robot man? Spike? Please spare me Spike is simply too cool to be monotoned |
