Well, there are many that could not POSSIBLY be live action. But, there are probably a few that could be pulled off with the right actors.

Any ideas? I honestly think RK would be doable, nothing to extreme, no 3d effects needed even.

Record of Lodoss War (hey, if they can do Lord of the Rings...)

Mermaid's Scar (need just the right actor for the kid, or it will be lame)

Perfect Blue

Ghost in the Shell

I think Gundam was made into a live action movie.

That or I was on drugs last time I went to the anime section of Best Buy...

I was in the Virgin Islands once. I met a girl, we ate lobster, drank piƱa coladas. At sunset, we made love like sea otters. That was a pretty good day. Why couldn't I get that day over, and over?

Cowboy Bebop might work.

Yes. Yes he is.

Current Live Actions:
SM (yes ther is a few of them)
DBZ (unfortunately)
Iria (covers all the eps.)

I would like to see Love Hina as well as a live action.

Grave of the Fireflies would translate quite well, but only if the director didn't make it into another Pearl Harbor.

Outlaw Star and Cow Boy Beebop might work well as live action, but they could also come out really badly.

Cowboy Bebop and Outlaw star wouldnt be hard, the graphics are nothing more complex than what the current Star Wars movies or James Bond stuff in creation technology, so the only problem would be the actors themselves.

i'd LOVE to see slayers in the big screen. i think they could pull it off. character's are easy to assisate with, has sufficent humor to keep most audiances, and it can make a plot that can end in two hours.

i wouldn't even mind if the villians were just guys in suits!

I'd kinda like to see Neon Genesis Evangelion or even Bubblegum Crisis (both old and new) down as Live Action


... provided that the right actors were chosen... and some spiffy computer SFX

Eva may turn into a godzilla-like film if it goes live action and cgi, though.

I thought that was Ghost in the Machine, about some killer guy that becomes some sentient being on the internet or something.

I don't know how to be sexy. If I catch a girl looking at me and our eyes lock, I panic and open mine wider. Then I lick my lips and rub my genitals. And mouth the words "You're dead."

"Samurai X" is evil incarnate. I have watched 1 minute of this dubbed horror of my favourite anime, and it was enough to realize they butchered it =(

But yeah. any animes that aren't TOO outrageous could be done.
