Forums - Movies & TV - FULLMETAL ALCHEMIST Live Action Movie Teaser

Official Website: http://wwws.warnerbros.co.jp/hagarenmovie/#

It will hit Japan in the Winter of 2017. With a cast headed by pop star and actor Ryosuke Yamada of Hey! Say! JUMP starring as Edward Elric.

 

Trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GvjOn0ucBec

 

I'm excited for this movie, but to me this part is an immersion breaker; A Japanese actor playing the role of a European character. Then again who knows I might like it because after watching Ghost in The Shell Trailer I've accepted the decision to cast Scarlett Johansson as lead.

Why did they get an Asian to play the role of a caucasian?



Feel like something will make it suck

12/22/2016- Made a bet with Ganoncrotch that the first 6 months of 2017 will be worse than 2016. A poll will be made to determine the winner. Loser has to take a picture of them imitating their profile picture.

Is it just me or ALL japanese live action movies suck? Anime related or not I feel like japanese actors are...soulless, no emotions and pretty bad to be honest.

I have never seen a good Japanese movie that isn't animated.



Nintendo and PC gamer

Oh no



Bet with bluedawgs: I say Switch will outsell PS4 in 2018, he says PS4 will outsell Switch. He's now permabanned, but the bet will remain in my sig.

Consider me hyped. I just hope it turns out to be good and live to most people expectations unlike the majority of movie adaptations of popular mangas/animes.

For the same reason everyone in the show and manga speaks perfect Japanese, regardless to if they're from the series's equivalent of europe, the middle-east, or asia; It's much easier to produce, and is predominantly targeting a domestic audience :p

Same reason Trump wont kick out illegal immigrants.

Cheap.

The same reason they got caucasians to cast as egyptians in the ten commandments...
