Perhaps Dresden Pictures will take inspiration from Warner Brothers and relocate the story to Coventry.

I was thinking more like Lambeth, and replacing the B-29s with Heinkel He-111s. This has got Pedigree Chum written all over it.

Anyone else find it quite apt that they're called Dresden pictures?

Definitely. So are they setting the movie in Dresden?

If they keep it in Japan, I hope they base the movie from the original book and start the script from scratch, rather than basing it on Isao Takahata's "I want the baby boomer generation to feel bad about themselves" movie.
