"Since ancient times, real people destroy anime, only Gintama destroys real people"
Presumably, friends who surf often will not be unfamiliar with this sentence, and there are many anime that have been ruined by the "live-action version"
("Kudo Shinichi Resurrected!") Showdown with the Dark Organization" stills)
"Tokyo Ghoul Live Action", "Attack on Titan Live Action", "Detective Conan Live Action"... These examples are still fresh in our minds
But the creation of the "live-action version" has not stopped, but has become a little more intense, such as the following ones
"One Piece"
("One Piece Live Action" poster)
Unexpectedly, I didn't wait for the finale of "One Piece", but I waited for the production news of "One Piece Live Action"
But the good news is that Netflix produces, according to Netflix's style of "not treating money as money", even if the shooting is not good, you can also look at the scenery

The two directors of "The Sea King Live Action" are famous characters
One of the directors, Mark Yobst, is the director of "The Witcher", "Hannibal" and "Daredevil"
("The Witcher Season 1" stills)
The other is Tim Southam, the director of "Finding the Bones", "Bates Hotel" and "Operation Flashpoint"
("Bates Hotel Season 4" stills)
However, I feel that the painting style of these two is not very suitable for filming a "main blood" drama like "One Piece"
Unless "Netflix" is expected to make "One Piece" lean in the direction of suspense dramas
After all, the wind evaluation of casting is polarized, some people think it is acceptable, and some feel that the choice is nothing

Speaking of editors, Matt Owens and Steven Maeda have no masterpieces
Most of the time they still have to rely on the original creator Eiichiro Oda to write the story for the live-action version, but it is not ruled out that Netflix wants to hone the two newcomers
One Piece live-action is officially scheduled to air this year, but the good news is that there are only 8 episodes
The Little Mermaid

This year, many netizens are disgusted, in addition to "Arthur", and perhaps the movie "The Little Mermaid"
After all, Disney's main "political correctness" is really difficult for audiences to accept, at least not mine
The main thing is that this "black little mermaid" is really difficult to stretch, and what is even more difficult is the sentence of talented netizens "Isn't it that the little day has not yet released nuclear sewage, how come there are victims so soon"
("The Little Mermaid" stills)
However, after complaining, it can be seen that Disney has indeed prepared a lot for this film
First of all, the director is Rob Marshall, the director of "Pirates of the Caribbean 4: Strange Waves" and "Memoirs of a Geisha"
He is still relatively experienced in song and dance films, and he directed several excellent song and dance films such as "Chicago", "Happy Man" and "Nine"
("Chicago" stills)
In addition to the director, it is planned to ask Lin-Manuel Miranda and legendary Disney composer Alan Manken to write new songs
Although we are not very familiar with these people, but looking at the evaluation of these netizens, it should also be the top master in the industry
"The Little Mermaid Live Action" is tentatively scheduled for May 26 this year (North American release), if it is to be introduced, it will probably be a summer vacation file

However, this casting is a little difficult to say, I heard that Universal next door also plans to shoot "The Little Mermaid Live Action"
I hope that after seeing the repercussions brought by Disney's version, Universal still has to be serious in casting
"Snow White"
("Snow White" poster)
The story of Snow White is almost well known, and every element of "crystal shoes", "poisonous apples" and "seven dwarfs" is a memory as long as it is mentioned
Even many people have a "Snow White and Prince" relationship when they are children
But I didn't expect Disney to let go of this story, not only filmed a live-action version, but also casting is also difficult to say
Playing Snow White is Rachel Zeegler, while playing "Vicious Mother" is Gal Gadot
This "confusing casting" is really worth complaining about, especially when I think that there is also a plot where the queen asks sunglasses "Who is the most beautiful woman in the world"
(Snow White Rachel Zegler and her stepmother Gal Gadot, who is jealous of her beauty)
The director is Mark Webb, who has directed "Deadly Woman", "The Amazing Spider-Man" and "Genius Girl"
According to Disney's official news, the song and dance drama "Snow White Live Action" retains some of the movies of that year and also adds newly created songs

In addition to this movie, "Snow and Red Rose Live Action", which tells about Snow White and her sister Red Mei, is also planned
And "Snow White Live Action" will be released on 2024-03-22 (North America).
Saint Seiya

As an enlightenment animation for a generation, Saint Seiya is undoubtedly a pure land in the hearts of many people
But this pure land will also be lost
That's right, "Saint Seiya Live Action" is here, and it has been scheduled to be released on April 28 (Japan) this year
(Saint Seiya live-action stills)
The director of this film is Tomok Baginsky, who mainly makes short films
The only film that everyone is familiar with is "The Witcher Season 1", but he is also only one of the directors
The protagonist is Shinda Masayuki, who is also Solon in the aforementioned "One Piece Live Action" version
(Saint Seiya live-action stills)
"Saint Seiya Live Action Version" mainly tells the story of Seiya (played by Shinda Shinkenyu), a proud street orphan, when he is looking for his kidnapped sister
Stumble upon his hidden powers and may be the only one who can protect Sienna (Madison Iserman), the reincarnated goddess who is being hunted down by the leader of the mysterious organization, Guraad (Famik Jensen).

This plot is said to be based on the original story newly created by Saint Seiya
The trailer has come out, so if you are interested, you can take a look
Personally, I think the special effects of Saint Seiya Live Action are still very good
It's this holy robe that I can't accept
(Saint Seiya live-action stills)
But I feel that if I put aside my feelings, this movie should be a good popcorn movie
Peter Pan and Wendy
(Peter Pan and Wendy poster)
In fact, the live-action adaptation of "Peter Pan and Wendy" (Peter Pan) is not the first
Back in 2015, there was a version of "Peter Pan and Wendy Live Action", but it was too unpopular
("Peter Pan and Wendy" stills)
As a result, many netizens do not know
And if you just talk about the movie of "Peter Pan" Peter Pan, then there are more
But this is currently the most complained about version, because Disney has completely forgotten the last time it was spit on so badly
This version also has "Black Elves"
("Peter Pan and Wendy" stills)
It's not that I'm racist, it's just that this setting, I'm really hard to accept
This version of "Peter Pan and Wendy" is directed by Peter Pan and Wendy, who has directed many romance films, most notably 2017's "Ghost Floating"
At the same time, he is also in line with Disney's "politically correct" admiration, because many of the romance films he directs are "male-male"
("Peter Pan and Wendy" stills)
Playing Peter Pan is Alexander Moloney, while Wendy is Al Anderson
The film has been scheduled to be released on April 28 (US network) this year
("Peter Pan and Wendy" stills)
Friends who are bored can see if "Peter Pan and Wendy Live Action" is worse, or Saint Seiya Live Action is worse
In addition to the above film and television dramas that have been finalized, there is also "Your Name. "Naruto", "Red Hot Chili Peppers" ... A live-action version of is being planned
However, the good news is that most of these live-action versions that have not yet been mentioned have not been heard, some may be abandoned, and some may just be rumors
