But... why?
(Besides money)
Oh well, another live action film based on a series I'm not a fan of lessens the blow than if it were one I liked, but still, this is ridiculous. Does anybody truly like these films?

Picked a pretty decent director for this, its something i guess.
However, i thought the same when they announced Adam Wingard for Death Note and... boi did it go wrong.

Didn't care for his IT movie all the much. It felt like a horror film for dummies,since it was chock full of jump scares and loud noises whenever something creepy was going to happen. Can't say am excited for his take on the property.

I'm honestly surprised that a live action One Punch Man hasn't been announced yet.

Oh, this will turn out great. I have no love for anime live action movies. I look at my bluray for Uchuu Senkan Yamato.

Attack on Titan is the type of story premise that should work as a Hollywood movie and yet I am still somewhat skeptical that the studio will understand why it is popular. Than again there is a good chance that the Hollywood live action movie will turn out better than the Japanese live action movies. Also I do have some hope for the Hollywood live action movie since Andy Muschietti did a good job with It.

So are you basically saying 95% horror movies are for dummies? kkkkk
His IT movie at least was leagues above the "original" that is just bad and boring.

I can imagine that they'll cast Rinko Kikuchi as mikasa.

IT was great, sure, it didn't box in as a conventional horror film, after all, a film like that is an example of labels being arbitrary.
On Topic: I'm assuming they hired IT staff members because they want them to repeat what they did with the youth in IT; however, it's a completely different playing field which makes that decision negligible, unless, unless, they are going to try the same recipe which likely won't work in their favor.

The other day, I was thinking to myself, “Is that Hollywood adaptation of AoT still happening?”. Glad to know it’s been finalized. Hopefully, the people working on it have a great understanding of why the franchise is so popular and properly execute that into this movie.

1. To introduce the franchise to mainstream moviegoers who haven’t heard of it before.
2. To experiment the franchise with the live-action medium. Sure, there’s the Japanese live-action movies, but Funimation already has the license to those. Even if they didn’t, Hollywood has very little incentive to license, distribute, and market already-made movies from another country that they can’t fully control or own when they could make one themselves.

Somehow,I'm not surprised about this in the least. I don't know if this'll work but I think that I'm optimistic that it will. At least,that's what I hope happens.
