Bubblegum Crisis is the latest Japanese anime to be getting the big screen live action makeover, this time though its not quite as straight forward as you may think. While Bubblegum Crisis became a cult hit after it's 1987 straight to video release it appears that the weight is being spread with the investment on this adaptation
Fantastic Four is the latest series to be getting an early reboot from 20th Century Fox. The news has been reported that Fox are very keen to aim the new Fantastic Four movies at a slightly more mature audience and stay away from the bubble gum formula they had with the past two movies
When I first heard they were making a live action version of Cowboy Bebop, one of my favorite anime’s I was part excited and part disappointed. Firstly the TV series of Bebop was damn near perfect with some great stories, seriously cool music, lots of action and a sprinkling of comedy all rolled into one. Next came the Cowboy Bebop anime movie, still very cool with an updated budget and slightly classier looking than the original TV series but not quite as interesting a story as the best we saw in the series

Cowboy Bebop was one of my favourite anime's, upbeat adventures starring a group of bounty hunters who kick ass and also get their asses kicked. All backed by a seriously funky jazz soundtrack, and facial expressions that are just impossible to immitate
It seems that the eagerly anticipated movie adaptation of Watchmen will be released on time much to the joy of all the Watchmen fans out there. The trouble stems from a dispute between Warner Bros. and 20th Century Fox that's is over a year long
