Phoenix Wright Live Action Movie
0
Announced by Capcom today.
In the "Ace Attorney" game series, players take on the role of a defense attorney who fights for the lives of his clients. The first game in the series was released in October 2001, and since then, this popular courtroom battle series has gone on to ship over 4.1 million units worldwide (as of March 31, 2011). This critically acclaimed franchise has also inspired cell phone games, comic books, character-based merchandise, as well as orchestra concerts involving the Tokyo Philharmonic Orchestra and even a stage musical by the Takarazuka Revue.
In the movie, the main protagonist, Phoenix Wright, will be played by Mr. Hiroki Narimiya, while rival prosecutor, Miles Edgeworth, will be played by Mr. Takumi Saito. Pheonix's assistant and spirit medium Maya Fey will be played by Ms. Mirei Kiritani. Mr. Takashi Miike of "Crows Zero" and "Thirteen Assassins" fame will be lending his directorial talents to the film. Production management will be handled by Nippon Television Network Corporation and distribution will be handled by Toho Co., Ltd. The movie is scheduled to be released in early Spring 2012 at all Toho Cinemas nation-wide.
I have mixed feelings about this...I would have preferred an anime. I will watch it regardless.

I think he's talking about the movies, although what was said could fit both series.
OT, i could see this work, if they mix in some humour and some crazy characters.

this might be a very interesting way of doing things....but i wonder how well this will work. i also wonder if its going to be serious or a comedy
edit: read the article...two words, Takashi Mike.

'OK guys we have just licended Phoenix Wright, so few things here:
1. Needs to be in 3D. Imagine, pointing out of the screen screaming 'OBJECTION!!'
2. We need it to be a multiple choice movie so the audience can fark it up early on in the movie and we can get through more screenings in a day.
3. Directed by Michael Bay.
etc etc'
Oh geez, ive just gone and depressed myself now D:

From the pictures shown, Phoenix Wright needs a tie and button up that top button. Hell, he needs his badge on his jacket as well. It would also help if his hair was slicked back. Maya seems fine, but that's because it's easy to do. No screens that I recall of Edgeworth.

I havent played pheenix wright, but some of my friends are total fans, and they are either really excited or depressed about this movie - I dont really care to be honest - a film is a film and a game is a game...

Miles:...
Judge:...
*phoenix wright puts on sunglasses*
Phoenix: Thats what I call monkeying around
Monkey: YYYYYEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

I think this is going to be Japan's "Scott Pilgrim" with the over the top nerdiness and video game like special effects.

We can only hear a few lines before the people watching it start bitching about something. :|
