seriously? With the reception of ghost in the shell, the whitewashing....

There is in AKIRA:

- 2 main japanese LEADS

- Funky music

- Future Tokyo

- Mind powers

- Japanese gangs

HOW the heck can you do a movie that passes the whitewashing test by thinking of a Jordan Peele to direct (I LOVE jordan Peele btw) But you are possibly setting Jordan Peele for failure...

Jordan seems to be good so far with comedic timing, lines and horror... NONE of that matters with Akira..

Give him SANDMAN, SHAZAM, JUSTICE LEAGUE DARK, to direct

TB: WB is moving aggressively to lock in Jordan Peele to direct [AKIRA] Antibody Mar 29, 23:41

i mean, great for him but . . . is he really an anime guy? {nm} slipping jimmy Mar 29, 23:43

devil's advocate: was he really a horror guy? {nm} tealfan Mar 30, 12:54

from the K&P sketches, that was more obvious than comic stuff. and Get Out's budget was only $4.5m. this is an order of magnitude greater {nm} slipping jimmy Mar 30, 15:08

ah...more at stake...hopefully not just a flavor-of-the-month decision then {nm} tealfan Mar 30, 17:18

is it mandatory to have a healthy sized side sick in female multi starrers now ? {nm} bunty_ketti Mar 30, 04:38

seriously? With the reception of ghost in the shell, the whitewashing.... milescca Mar 30, 06:29

I know right! I still shake my fist at the gods for Kurasawa's Throne of Blood! Shakespeare rolled over in his grave! {nm} Catzan Mar 30, 09:25

lol {nm} tealfan Mar 30, 12:53

Seems like a great fit to me. From seeing K&P bits over the years, Jordan knows nerdy stuff very well. I'd love to see his take on this. {nm} MiyazakiFan Mar 30, 07:38
