Warner Bros. Working On Live Action Bleach Adaptation
- Thread starter vansau
- Start date
You know, there are interviews where Tite Kubo was asked if he'd ever let movies of Bleach be made, and he said 'no, if I wanted to make movies, I would have pursued a career in screen-writing'.
So I have to wonder if Tite gave permission for this, or if Shonen Jump sold the rights without telling him.
Also, no matter what happens, this movie will disappoint. Let's say they're doing the Save Rukia arc. They won't do asian actors for the characters that should be asian, they won't go and find someone of Spanish descent who is incredibly tall for Chad (hell, I'll be surprised if they don't give the roll to Taylor Lautner), Ichigo won't have red hair, none of the four big breasted women will have big breasts (more if you count any of the shinigami on the hill, but I was just going with the ones that had more than one line, hell, they'll probably skip the whole shot into the Society by spirit firework), the swords will probably be all CGI and incredibly fake looking, they won't flesh out any of the background characters, because, let's face it, this movie will be about 90-120 minutes and be mostly fighting and the whole Aizen thing will probably be removed and Soul Society will simply be made to look evil because all of that is probably to convoluted (even though it is pretty straight forward) for an American audience to follow (Hollywood dumbs shit down, don't deny it).

I guess she could play Orihime too, but I think she'd have more fun as Rangiku.Gottesstrafe said:Alright guys, time to play: Guess the Cast!
For the Akira remake it was rumored that for the roles of Kaneda and Tetsuo the actors Zac Efron and Robert Pattinson were cast respectively. For the Cowboy Bebop remake it was Keanu Reeves as Spike. For the Death Note remake it was speculated that Zac Efron (again) would play Light, Joe Jonas as L, Miley Cyrus as Misa, and the voice of James Woods as Ryuk.
Now it's time to guess who will be cast for Bleach!
I'll throw my votes behind Woody Harrelson as Urahara and Ray Park as Renji. Maybe even Ken Watanabe as Komamura (fursuit or CGI pending) and perhaps Jeff Bridges/Anthony Hopkins could be persuaded to shave his head and grow out a beard for the role of Head Captain Yamamoto?

Why?
It's bad. Very bad. Focus on DC and a Deadpool movie and let this franchise go the way this franchise should: a spiraling flaming wreck that was destroyed at the hands of it's own creators. Also, I'm not a hateful guy, I just don't like this very much.

I long for this to come out simply because it can be added to my collection of horrible abomination of hollywood.
