Hollywood style, James Cameron (Terminator, Titanic guy) is doing it.

My man Cameron has always been inspired by anime, you can see mostly in his short lived Dark Angel series...... ohh and Battle Angel Alita manga is one of my favorites.

I read rumours that it will be an animated 3D movie.

Someone should tell Mr Cameron to re-release the anime DVD cause.

I love my Glenat boxset of Gunnm! So pretty.

Battle Angel Alita manga is one of my favorites.

certainly is good! d/led scans of all of em yet to read them alll but like what ive read

[Andromeda18_]

Battle Angel Alita (Gunnm) is very good. I was able to buy the deluxe edition of the manga which comes with a bunch of new pages Yukito Kishiro decided to add. At the moment he is working on Gunnm Last Order which picks up where the deluxe edition left off. Apparently, in the standard edition, something else happens after the ending I read in the deluxe edition but Yukito Kishiro decided to ignore it and Gunnm Last Order's story starts exactly after the ending of the deluxe edition. If you can get your hands on it Rav you should give it a try, it's very good. I have yet to buy the first 3 volumes of Last Order that have already been published in France but I'm kind of hoping to get it in a big sized edition to match the first series edition. I'm really eager for the movie.

I can really good imagin a Live Action Version made by Cameron.
This is a Director which i would trust such a Project like Alita.

But such half Talents who wants to make a US Version of Akira or Evangelion ewww digusting!

They surely will destroy the whole Idea and meaning of the Original.

But Cameron is a Hope!

Camerons expects to shoot the movie next year in may or june and to come out in theathers in 2007.

This is one of my favourite manga titles and I've always wanted to see it done in more depth than the anime provided. Lets hope Cameron works from a solid script.
