You know how I know this is fake? Because the studio executive pretended like he cared about staying true to the original. That said, I fully expect this version of Akira will end up far superior to whatever actual, horrible live-action Akira eventually gets shit out of Warner Bros.

Come on, we all know that double-seated bicycle was too wild, we couldn't handle it.
NOOOOOO!!!!
STILLLLLLLL WHIHHHHHHIIIIIIITE WAAAAAASSSSSSHHHHHIIIIIINNNNNGGGGGASIAN MOVIES!!!!!!!
I think what needs to be done is Hollywood needs to take a cue from recent cartoon-to-live-action-feature-film movies and take the characters from the world of Akira... and place them in modern day America!
See the wacky antics of Kaneda and Tetsuo as they and their friends help the kindly Nezu save his arcade from the clutches of evil landlord Colonel Shikishima!
Would you kindly do me a favor and DIE!! And as you do take this idea with you please. Thanks.
I loved this!
This is still more true to the source material than that actual big budget movie that they were trying to make.
With any luck, WB would take one look at this and realize what a horrible mistake this is. Wishful thinking, of course, since Big Hollywood would gobble up a plate of shit if it's served with a side of Fava Beans and a nice Chianti.
P.S. No joke, the moment I saw the WB water tower, the first thing that came to mind was, "It's time for Animaniacs/And we're zany to the max". XD
OOOOO ANIMAKIRA??/ Wako as Kaneda. Yako as Tetsuo. Dot as Kie. Doctor Scratch and Sniff as Colonel Shikishima. And the Good Feathers as the esper kids. I like it. I like it.
Okay I'm going to hell for that one. But I'll be laughing all the way.
Tits + Explosions = American Akira (and you'll love it. No, not Rob. You. You will love it. Because your taste is pisspoor. Go on. Go watch 3D Star Wars prequels and J.J. Trek 2. You bastard. >8[ )
Well, they got one thing that Warner Bros. and the rest of Hollywood would love: white people playing Japanese characters.
As oppose to cartoons pretending they're anime? Observe, the worst of cultural crisis:

Why they chose to do that when Venture Bros is doing just fine, I'll never know.
And whores. Don't forget the whores. Everything is better with whores. Yaay, whores! -WB Executive-
Because the cocaine sniffers find out anime is "the new hot thing" (yeah the fallacy in that idea can fill the entire internet but let us not go there. ) and decide that they need to cash in on it. Which leads to that monstrosity and it's ilk. It also leads to WB buying the rights to Akira. Same thought process. MORE COKE MORE COKE COOOOOOOKKKKKKEEEE.
OW OW OW OW OW FUCK OW FUCK FUCK......That hurt to watch. Yet it still gonna be better then the WB one. *sits down and cries* Why gods??? WHY?????
No it gonna be Bieber. That way they can get the tweens in the seats. With Miley playing his love interest. And of course Jack Black as his uncle Kanada. Excuse me please I have to go vomit with the thought of that one.

Hopefully one full of glass and nails and metal from construction site. Then hot tar was poured on him. Ummmm..... yeah.
