Umm....should I be scared? While it does sound interesting, I'm just wondering how its going to look. Gacked the article from Animenation, WHR comm. and friends. So those that didn't hear or see it, here it be::

Live Action Witch Hunter Robin confirmed.....


Mr. Joe Menosky, writer and producer for TV series including Star Trek: The Next Generation, Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, Star Trek: Voyager, and The Dead Zone, has contacted AnimeNation with confirmation that last Friday, January 16th, the Sci-Fi Channel closed a deal with Sunrise Studios of Japan to remake Witch Hunter Robin as a live-action American television series. Mr. Menosky will write the series and executive produce along with Mr. Roy Lee (who licensed the remake of "Ring") and his business partner Doug Davison.

According to Mr. Menosky, "There may or may not be an announcement in the Hollywood tradepapers -- which tend to wait until a pilot script is completed, greenlit for production, with director and actors attached before they consider a television series worthy of mention. But given the focus of AnimeNation, I thought you might find the project of interest."



I think I'm just scared on who they will get to play the characters and it better be damn good thats for sure!!!!!!!!!!!! Hmmmm..........a RL Amon............*drools*

I'm more interested on how they are going to do the costuming- are they going with the anime or going with something new?

Yeah I've been wondering that too. It would be nice if they kept to the original and not make it too cheesy.

Totally with the other shows! I'll be the one to watch it between my fingers, but I hope they do it justice if they are going to want to make it work, and not only that but appeal to the fans before they themselves go out on a "witch" hunt ^_~

*shudders violently* This is going to be like that Sailor Moon live-action thing, isn't it? O_O

Oh, by the bye, I'm making a really, really damned good effort to get your goodies in the mail to you this weekend. That's assuming that I can kick this stupid cold. >.

God I hope not! I'm hoping they would at least make this tasteful.

Cool cool, I'll be looking forward to it when you get the chance and time to do so. I also kept forgetting to tell you I got your X-mas card in the mail last week I believe, so cute and so funny! Glad that your enjoying your gift too!

Hope your starting to feel better with that damn cold.
