As long as Sunrise can assert their opinion of what "quality" is, then I wouldn't mind a live-action movie of Cowboy Bebop - I can already imagine the movie in my head. As long as it isn't shitty like Dragonball Evolution, then it shouldn't be too bad. Cowboy Bebop is live-action doable. Dragonball is not.Agreed,but can you really stand listening to Keanu's voice when he does Spyke "My god vicious has stolen my watch,I must use my 12 years of Bruce Lee movie watching techniques and take him down".
At least there's this:
[Kenji Uchida] emphasized that the contract allows Sunrise to assert quality control by stating, "If the script is terrible, the live-action film adaptation will not be approved."

This is probably live-action doable. No superpowers, no crazy plots, sci-fi, ribald action and all out violence, and very easily portrayed actors. As long as they get respectable actors and a decent director, I wouldn't mind seeing this. Of course, it'd be my opinion that the Japanese did a live-action of it, but of thinking of Cowboy Bebop's plot, it's very possible for the American live-action to surpass Japan's version if they ever made one.I agree, but...Keanu Reaves?
Dear god I hope not.

This will suck real bad.It might turn out good, and a little foot note, just because it's going to be American produced doesn't mean it's going to be bad...though I wouldn't hold my breath. Also Japan took a take at Death Note live action, and just throwing this out there....

I actually liked the Death Note movies. The first two, at least. The third one was a big pile of shit, but that was to be expected, as it wasn't actually Death Note, just some shit put together with L.

Never watched the 3rd one, I was left so disappointed by the other two, and in my opinion the first two would have been better they had followed the manga. To me it was like the director didn't even bother to read the manga, but instead just flipped through...though they did really good w/ Ryuk and Rem.
Bottom line I did not like the movies, but that is my opinion, and please Hollywood for the love....don't F*ck up Cowboy Beebop.
P.S. Cowboy Beebop is my #1 favorite anime of all time

live action move
*compared with the anime that plays like a feature film (in other words how it shoulda been fking done!)
was there not also a ghost in the shell and evangelion live action coming?
my god man...what is there to like with the wooden acting, unfaithfulness to the STYLE of the story telling on death note (redhot chilli peppers? how inappropriate could you get! WHERE DOES FKING CALIFORNIA GET INTO IT!!!!!!?) AND A SCRIPT THAT MAKES SHIT UP AS IT GOT ALONG!!!!
only thing vaguely death note like was when L killed himself to get KIRA by by passing the rules of the death note so he could be immortal for several days.

true enough it's something L might do, but even that was no were near how L died.

Okay, first off, unlike those stupid Chuck Norris jokes, Cowboy Bebop IS immortal people. Not only is it up there with Dragon Ball(Z), but it also had it's OWN ANIMATED MOVIE!! Face the facts, we have nothing to worry about. Hollywood can try to rape our favorite all it wants, but we all know not even they can topple the ultima smexyness of Cowboy Bebop. 
Bring it on, Hollywood! BRING IT ON!!
P.S. the FAKKU ELITE's reaction is historic lol

Taken from ANN.
[size=11]Actor Keanu Reeves (The Matrix, Animatrix, Johnny Mnemonic) told MTV News that the proposed live-action Cowboy Bebop film project is currently being rewritten. During a press event for The Private Lives of Pippa Lee film, he said, "There's a draft of the script, but the writer did such a great job [that] in order to make the movie, you would need half a billion dollars. […] So the studio went, 'This movie is fantastic and it would cost half a billion dollars. So he's doing a rewrite." Reeves added that the producers are "just trying to pull it back" in scope, and "the only challenge was to make a satisfying western narrative."[/h]
Half a billion bucks !? What were they proposing ? Building a 1:1 scale flying replica of Bebop ? It's still gonna suck if it ever comes to pass.
