My fave anime is about to be turned into a likely horror - a horror with singing and dancing, I bet

I have seen it a few times on my flist already, but apparently a studio bought rights for a live-action version of one of my favorite animes of all time (actually behind only Trigun as a favorite), Full Metal Panic.

(For those interested in what FMP is I did a pusher post with explanations and vids here).

Even "better?" The rumor is Zac Effron (most known for High School Musical 1, 2, 3, 18, ten billion) will play Sousuke, the over-solemn teen mercenary. He will defeat the terrorists by singing at them. Maybe, if we are lucky, he and Kaname could do a tender love ballad while dodging bullets in the middle of the forest. Ahahahahaaaaaaaa. I actually like Zac Effron and think he was adorable in HSM but no. Just no. Who are they going to cast for Kaname, Miley Cyrus?

Bleh. And this is from the gal who actually thinks Keanu Reeves will make a good Spike in the upcoming live-action version of Cowboy Beebop.

(I reserve the right to be pleasantly surprised).

ETA: WHAT????????????????????? I quote: "Leonardo DiCaprio is considering casting SMAP as the Ninja Scroll live-action feature film adaptation’s main cast." *brain shortcircuits*

Public Enemies is making me salivate

This trailer for Public Enemies, the upcoming movie about John Dillinger, a notorious Depression Era bank robber and Public Enemy Number 1 makes me salivate even more than the first one I posted previously.

The cast plus Depression Era plus robbers plus it's about Dillinger who had such a colorful story makes me rather hyper.

(I need a Johhny Depp icon, hmmm...)

Are you a middle-aged married lady? Joo Ji Hoon wants ya!

I am filled with glee. According to dramabeans, Joo Ji Hoon's next drama is a Korean version of a Japanese novel/movie Tokyo Tower, about a 20-something guy who falls for a 40-year old married lady (to be played by Kim Ji Soo).

*squee*

Mmmm, JJH (In Mawang. I'd post a rl picture, but let's face it, in rl his fashion sense is...interesting):



I have to say, whether you like JJH or not (I do), he certainly has a good taste in roles. He started out as Prince (not so) Charming in the adorable Goong, then played a serial killer in Mawang (if not for Legend, the drama that would occupy Top Drama From Anywhere slot in my heart), a cake shop owner in the gay trifle delight Antique Bakery, the title character in a musical play version of Don Juan and now this. :)

In other news, anyone watching The Story of a Man starring Park Yon Ha (On Air) and Park Shi Yeon (La Dolce Vita). It's written by the writer of the legendary Sandglass and Eyes of Dawn, as well as (more pertinent to me) my favorite drama ever, Legend. Crime, revenge, and business: here I come!
