    Love the overall vibe, but Spike seems a lot more wooden.

    Yeah and I dont see spike using his gun-fu enough. I see a lot of this bow staff garbage more than him just shooting sh*t.

    People will be happy to see Faye's side boobs, I guess lol..

    They seem to be lifting straight from the anime.. I dont think that is good. homage is cool, but shot for shot.. i dont know about that. Also, doesn't look grimey enough.. Spikes ship should look like a space ship jalopy.

    I’m not feeling John Cho in this. His moves look so slow. They couldn’t get the guy from Shang Chi in this?

    that guy would be too meaty for the role. imo. I think Cho is good in this, but the fight choreography I'm worried about.

    Not feeling spike. A younger Keanu would have been perfect. I’ll still watch

    Looks like they used the budget and set from Altered Carbon give or take a few more million.

    But who am I kidding...I liked that trashy sci fi show.

    Maybe they’ll do better with the casting for Samurai Champloo.

    Im not going to knock it until I watch it. But that guy playing spike does not come off as cool. He comes off as old.


    *** I was just making a joke, but apparently this is actually in the works. Why the **** won’t they make trigun!

    It’s just going to take one great anime adaptation and the doors will blow off and it will be a trend. So far only Netflix has taken a shot. Results TBD

    I have high hopes for Berserk if HBO actually makes it.

    Trivun would be too expensive to make things were on a grand scale and they would have to destroy it all if I remember correctly.

    Samuri champloo could be great in live action if done right.

    They need to be careful on making it too cartoony like they are doing with bebop.

    They could make Trigun in that bubble thing they use for the Mandalorian.
