As reported in Variety in 2006, Distant Horizon is also producing the live-action version of Kite.


Are we getting a rated R version and a NC-17 one?

All these different anime series/manga getting picked up for Hollywood releases reminds me of when the video game industry also had the same boom. I am not sure if there's going to be as many movie made, I mean I don't think we have an Uwe Boll of anime yet. Wink

Really, they are remaking Rinjin 13-go. This is shocking considering that the Japanese live action flick came out like 2 years ago but then again they are making more remakes of Asian movies.

Edit: The live action Rinjin 13-go came out in Japan in 2005 not 1995.

Wow, I didn't even realize that the Japanese version was available in the US. Oops. Time to go dvd shopping, it seems...

Gotta wonder if this remake will be any good, though. Hmm.

Delta: Probably a PG 13 one, and by some no-name brother pair, no less. And to be "ironic", the company's bringing back a "deep" Fu Manchu. Rolling Eyes
