Dreamworks aquires the rights to Ghost in the Shell

Quote:

Anonymous GiTS fan noted a Variety story informing us that DreamWorks has acquired the rights to Ghost in the Shell and has plans to produce a "3D Live Action" version of the popular anime. This happened apparently because Spielberg is a fan. He says "'Ghost in the Shell' is one of my favorite stories ... It's a genre that has arrived, and we enthusiastically welcome it to DreamWorks." I hope they add a talking donkey.

>> They better not **** this up.

Wonder how many people will go into the theaters and say "this reminds me of the Matrix." It will be funny because the Wachowskie Brothers took inspiration from Ghost in the Shell.

I'm having visions of GiTS: The A.I. version! ><

Actually, this could be very good news...if they do it well.

...nooooooo

I just felt a huge piece of my soul get torn out.

Er, why?

Spielberg has made awesome movies before, and is apparently a huge fan of GitS, so this could be amazing.

We'll just have to wait and see.

It sounds very intriguing, as long as they don't screw it up.

I'd like to see how they would do/make the tachikomas. Thats the part that worries me.

Probably CGI, as in the show but with a more realistic look.

This could go one of two ways.

good or bad.

If the worst happens, we always have the classic episodes

Well if Spielberg is a fan, then I am sure he will do his best to make it work. He has done some great movies and if anyone could pull this off, he can.

But I agree... this will either be good or it will be bad.
