Interesting news.

Though I'm not sure exactly, there are some live-action movies/shows/musicals of animes that have been created in Japan and were successful. Ones such as Sailormoon and Sakura Taisen (Sakura Wars) and I think, Ghost in the Shell.

With those animes (Akira, Ninja Scroll, DBZ, Kite, and Lupin) turning into live-action will probably either end up good or bad. I personally think that Akira and Kite will do fairly well. The others might be good too, but it depends.

As for my thoughts of anime going into live-action, it doesn't really matter to me. Though I personally just like anime animated, some live-actions are probably good and I would like to check out some.

Being turned into a Hollywood movie is a good idea...anime is becoming more and more accepted in the US (with movies being shown in independent theaters and such). If they pick the right anime to turn into a Hollywood film, it might be a success. Again, I personally think that Kite and Akira would be the most successful movies. Ninja Scroll would be a bit harder to do and the same goes for DBZ and Lupin, IMO.
