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. |

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?

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. |

Oh, come on. Keanu Reeves couldn't even play Vicious. And unless there's the unlikely chance that Joss Whedon directs this, I'd say this franchise should make like Spike and stay dead already. I'M IN DESPAIR! HOLLYWOOD LIVE ACTION REMAKES OF CARTOONS HAVE LEFT ME IN DESPAIR! |

*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 Modified by TatsuyaSaiga, 12-18-08, 7:39 PM |

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* |

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. |

He's actually pretty toneless [monotone speech] like Spike. Personality-wise, the personalities he usually plays makes him unsuitable to be playing Spike; he doesn't fit the role. |
