I doubt even the Tiger and Bunny one will be a successful movie.

This is awesome news. i'm really hoping they remake many of the classics that didn't get a good adaption.

Financially, it would be luke warm, but there is a tiny possibility that an entertaining Tiger and Bunny live action film might be made.

As for the Other proposed IPs, who knows but realistically they would end up becoming something so different from the source material they would be pretty much in name and vague aesthetics only.

Yeah, as much as I'd love it to be the next Avengers its going to draw heavy criticism for not being like... the Avengers.
On the plus side, Its got a slight chance of avoiding the GITS controversy.

I say "Slight" because the main cast is still about 50% Caucasian, and nobodies going to care about the source material.

TaB is the anime that is perhaps most qualified for a Hollywood adaptation. However, a most important thing is to get an Asian or Asian-American to play Kotetsu.
