We have already seen Dave Rapoza's take on the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles now we have a great pic of Tetsuo from Akira. Just the one character for now unfortunately, but hopefully we will get Kaneda, Kei and co at some point too.



Kaneda's best friend, a member of Kaneda's gang, and eventually Kaneda's nemesis. He is involved in an accident at the very beginning of the story, which causes him to display immense psychic powers. He is soon recruited by the Colonel and given the designation #41. However, Tetsuo's mental instability increases with the manifestation of his powers, which ultimately drives him insane and shatters his friendship with Kaneda. Later in the story he becomes Akira's second-in-command, before he begins to lose control of his powers. Tetsuo is the main antagonist (and possible anti-hero) of Akira. Tetsuo is named after a Tetsujin 28 character, Professor Shikishima's son, Tetsuo Shikishima.

NICE! Anyone know what the deal is re. a live-action movie? Is it still moving forward or in development hell? Last I heard Keanu (please God nooooo!!!!) Reeves was attached to it.

It's all over the place. Director walked, they couldn't cast it but WB maintain that it's still gonna happen.

I just watched the japanese live action movie "Space Battleship Yamato" based on the classic 1970´s anime and i loved it.

It was a great movie, the Yamato take off brought me to tears, at the sound of the majestic soundtrack.

Japanese actors playing japanese parts.The way it should be.

It was not perfect, as it was heavily butchered, after all, had to condense 1 billion hours of TV episodes in 1 1/2 hour.

And cute Yeoman Yuki, a very feminine blonde secretary and hero´s main love interest became a japanese Starbuck, a jet pilot from start.

But still, that movie is amazemenet incarnated.
