Lots of people say live action never works and will always look bad. Now I understand that because of ATLA, dragon Ball Evolution and such but look at comic book live action movies. As long as you have someone who cares about the film it can be amazing.

comics work because some people can relate to them and the characters dont look odd like in the anime live action movies. can relate being it takes place in america or something blah blqh blah. it just works

Anime has a very wierd fashion.

As well as unrealistic color scheme

Ever seen those pics "spot the main character"?
Its how absurdly wierd they sre.

As stated, its also mainly low budget film makers who make em.

I guess some genres can work, in theory, but not Shounen. Shounen aesthetics and spirit don't translate well to live action. Characters would look like cosplayers who overreact to everything.

What are you talking about ? the live action for AOT is a big hit in japan... the movie also scheduled to be screened in southeast asia region this month.

Sorry, maybe I should have made it more clear that it is my own opinion, and that my taste doesn't rely on quotes and how popular a movie is. I just can't stand live action at all.
