Movie already ruined. (http://www.empireonline.com/news/story.asp?NID=24013)
And Cowboy Bebop is one of my favorite animes to.
Ouch. That's what you get for liking something popular :P
On the bright side, there's no law that says you have to see it, or even acknowledge it's existence.

IMO Christian ae would fit the role better than Keanu Reaves... and I`ve never watched a single episode of Cowboy Bebop. I think that has a funny title. Haha. Bebop.

...So, you admit you've never seen the show in your life, but still feel you can pass judgment on who would "fit" a character you're not even remotely familiar with? =D
Actually, I think Keanu could do the part well. As with all live action adaptations, there's going to be rough spots and such.
I'll be going to see it that's for sure.
I'm actually more curious who they are going to play Jet, and Vicious (if he's even going to be in the film).

Just like the Tsukihime Anime? Because There is no tsukihime anime
This, is definitly a odd, very odd. Well, we'll find out eventually.

That's why I admitted to never seeing it. Yes, I have the ability to pass judgment on what I want. xD
He fits the roles of alot of people. Heck, he could play Proto Man in a Mega Man live action. xD
Necropost to state an opinion, what?!
Okay, so I was thinking, you know how Spike was modeled on Yusaku Matsuda? And you know how Yusaku had a son named Shota who looks quite similar to him and speaks English fluently? Why not get him to do the role of Spike? Why Keanu Reeves?

This just about describes my emotions about this.
Yeah, I've never been particularly fond of people adapting TV shows, animations, video-games, or books into movies, they always wind up ruining it in some way.
Lemme tell y'all something I live by always:
-If it's made into a movie, and it was not a movie before, it will fail.
-If it's made into a video game, and it was not a video game before, it will fail.
-If it's made into a TV show, and it was not a TV show before, it will fail.
-If it's made by Disney, worked on by Disney, thought of by Disney, or remotely is help in production by Disney, or even if it's not even conceived yet by Disney, it already is fail.
